Text Me Back! With Lindy West And Meagan Hatcher-Mays

Meagan is 44 years old! If you’re reading this, you should have called in yesterday to wish her a happy birthday. She mighta been busy bc she is treating herself to a cardiac event or two at a sports game. Is it POTS …or (S)PO(R)TS?? Plus, we lament the rise and fall of blond-haired white boys. Spoiler Alerts for Alias (2001-2006) and Lost (2004-2010). But taking center stage is Judge Meags Lane! We are reviewing three issues for the day:Issue #1: Is Lindy guilty of being a big ol’ b-word?-On the bench: Judge Meags Lane-Defendant: Lindy West, representing herself-Prosecution: Lindy WestThe Facts:Lindy has to interpret a TSA line in an airport. A lady in front of her forgets she has a belt on and gets booted from the line. Lindy advances within the line. A lady tries to cut in front of Lindy. Lindy has forgotten that this lady is the belt lady and says no cut-sies. Issue #2: Should we sentence Patrick Ta to 12 years of hard labor?-On the bench: Judge Meags Lane. -Defendant: Patrick Ta, represented by Meagan Hatcher-Mays-Prosecution: Meagan Hatcher-MaysThe Facts:??????Issue #3: Is Robert a lying liar?-Overseeing the case: The Textmebackoytes-Defendant: Jingleheimer Robert, representing himself-Prosecution: Lindy West and Meagan Hatcher-MaysThe Facts:Robert is charged with heresy in the first degree in suggesting that other podcasts exist. Robert admits on tape that he has listened to and written music for this supposed “other” podcast. Tune in to hear the verdicts and sentencing! And if you are in the petit jury of Textmebackolytes on Robert’s case, please call in ASAP or we will send out a subpoena on your ass (703) 829-0003.NEVER LISTENED TO THE POD BEFORE?

Today, we tide! Sadly, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico kindly asked Meagan (la Reina Lazy) to put away her ass and return to the Continental United States immediamente, so she is back to report on if she a) kissed Benito or b) kissed Ricky Martin orrrrr secret option c) kissed Billy the Magician. AND we are reaching a muy satisfying conclusion to our lazy river saga, wherein Meagan finds the laziest rio in alllll of Puerto Rico. Sorry in advance to the polo-presenting Americans in our community – your experience is valid!And back at the ranch, Lindy tells us all about tiny town USA and her Braum’s redemption tour. No more asking the teens behind the counter to defrost the chicken pimiento –  we think you’re gonna like what she ordered. NEVER LISTENED TO THE POD BEFORE?

Welcome back, it’s a brand new day because that’s how time works. It’s definitely not the same day, as you can see from Meagan’s cool new way of sitting and Lindy’s fresh new ‘do. In today’s Whatcha Watchin’,  🚨🚨BIG Spoiler Alert 🚨🚨bc Meagan is fired up on a little number called Song Sung Blue. Do you think this movie is a stinky diaper or not a stinky diaper? It’s a little late to rehabilitate Meagan’s opinion, but you can certainly hash it out in the discord over at patreon.com/textmebackpod.AND THEN, we’re talking Normal News!!!! You’ll never guess what appeared on Lindy’s Instagram feed!! He has a friar tuck hair cut, pecs, and hangs out in a mysterious swamp. Tune in for more details and let us know what you think at deartextmeback@gmail.com.And last and possibly least 🎀🐶Dog Thoughts 🐶🎀. Is Kevin cancelled? Is Lindy cancelled for her unforgivable coinage?

Space and time continue to be melded into one great big wonky mass, like a fruit roll up left in your car on a hot day. Where we are, the Heated Rivalry conversation is still buzzing, so we have a pret-tay heated take for you. And Meagan doesn’t even know that her beloved Seahawks are Super Bowl champs! If you’d like to go back in time and let her know the good news feel free to call us at (703) 829-0003.And…we normally don’t like to fight in front of the Textmebackolytes, but Meagan just could not hold her silence and live in a lie any longer. Sorry kiddos!!! Daddy just forgot his little meatballs! Does Meagan do repair? Will Lindy forgive? Tune in to find out, and if YOU have a bone to pick with us, write in at deartextmeback@gmail.com. We’re P.U.B.E.S all the way down this week.But we round out the conversation with something nice! Meagan’s Tiktok Digest brings tidings of men and boys doing nice things with and for each other, and not in a Heated Rivalry way at all. In just a friendly, nice little fella kind of way.NEVER LISTENED TO THE POD BEFORE?

Okay shut up shut up we have to focus!!!We have the INCREDIBLE Franchesca Ramsey in the house, so we can’t be distracted by things like 1) what Text Me Back even is? 2) if it is good or bad. Franchesca’s presence punctures one of the central tenets of Text Me Back - for SHE has a podcast (Lemme Fix it!) AND she is also the iconic host of Webby nominated series We Were All Rooting for You. We have people looking into this, but initial reporting suggests that there may be other podcasts apart from Text Me Back. Seems suspicious, but we will circle back when we know more.And since Franchesca is the big brain behind Lindy’s renewed internet fame, we’re talking about our TOP CELEBRITY BEEFS. You’ll never guess who we have called out, betrayed, and been blocked by. Thomas Lennon, follow Lindy again if you forgive us!! Sorry we didn’t like that one movie you were in, buddy!!! And because we’re talking about internet psychos, that naturally brings us to Tyra Banks, America’s Next Top Model, and Jake and Logan Paul. PLUS: updates on the tumbleweed situation, stay tuned til the end!!NEVER LISTENED TO THE POD BEFORE?
