* I want to clarify two points I made here before they're misunderstood as I don't think I articulated them well - when I say both women (Bri & Grace) felt like the other was being selfish and listed why Grace was "selfish" - that was me listing Bri's reasons, those are not my personal beliefs. Also want to clarify that I do believe Grace deserves the "pedestal", I was just trying to explain why Bri might feel like they are always pitted against each other by their audience ok bye lmao!! *The biggest stories on the internet from December 12th, 2024.Timestamps:00:28 Brianna Chickenfry “exposes” Grace O’Malley friendship8:14 What is Alex Cooper's Unwell University?15:23 Selena Gomez announces engagement to Benny BlancoFind our podcast YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC18HclY7Tt5-1e3Z-MEP7Jg Subscribe to our weekly Substack: https://centennialworld.substack.com/ Join our Geneva home: https://links.geneva.com/invite/7eb23525-9259-4d59-95e3-b9edd35861a5 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/infinitescrollpodcast/ Follow Lauren on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/laurenmeisner_/
