Betches founder and Morning Announcements host Sami Sage returns as America barrels toward midterm elections and the potential for wider oversight investigations should Democrats retake the House. She shares why she thinks Americans need to be more angry about how corrupt American leadership is right now, what a Democratic House should actually do for oversight and accountability over the administration, and how the delusions of American society can help explain this moment.

In the past week, along with the horrendous Cornell 7, the news included: A man who jacked off to the woman next to him on a plane and United Airlines refused to deal with it, and made her go back to her seat. We discovered an LSU football player was found responsible for raping a girl, but the university lowered his accountability from suspension to probation in order to let him keep playing. A teenage boy was only given a restraining order after he stalked and stabbed a girl 10 times because she wouldn’t date him, and Vanderbilt University reported 50 cases of girls at the health center because of spiked drinks in the last week.

This week, Kate briefly debriefs her week at Cannes Lions during a record-breaking heat wave, including how she accidentally hired a private French bodyguard in an armored Maybach, sweat off her spray tan across the Côte d'Azur, and what it's like to be at Coachella for vague marketing babes without AC when your brain is so fried you give the AC repairman the wrong room number and it stays broken. Then Sami Sage (co-founder of Betches, host of the Morning Announcements) joins for a catch-up covering the lead up to Taylor and Travis's MSG wedding, Joe Alwyn and Sarah Pidgeon making out at Hampstead Heath, being hot as an internet career skill, canopy beds as class warfare, rare 90s aesthetics, whether Alex Mack was the original Inside Out, past lives, the word incontrovertible, and why Sami doesn't believe in snowboarding.

Jared is joined by original U Up? co-host Sami Sage for a fun episode that kicks off with body image, Ozempic shame, and why vulnerability isn’t owed, but it does matter. They unpack a listener’s dilemma about dating a woman who may have lost weight on GLP-1s and whether hiding old photos is a red flag, a boundary, or none of his business. Then they review texts from a guy who gives his date the ick by editing his messages multiple times, one edit should be the max! Sami and Jared also discuss what women should actually get men for the upcoming Valentine’s Day. Lastly, they dig into two red flag deal breakers: staying close with an ex-wife and being single at 33 – is that a red flag? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Too often we wait for someone else to fix our problems, but when you ARE the solution, there’s no limit to what you can achieve. This week Shawn teams up with the co-founder of Betches Media and the author of Democracy in Retrograde , Sami Sage , to unpack the Shawnism: “ You ARE The Solution . ” The two dive into why taking ownership—rather than sitting idle—can actually work in your favor, and why stepping up is often a secret weapon. They discuss the value of personal agency, why uncomfortable conversations matter, and how true growth begins when we step outside our own bubbles. Sami also explains why, in a time of anti-establishment fervor and biased media, honest voices matter more than ever. This is a powerful conversation on honesty, agency, and why, when problems arise, you don’t wait for change—you become the solution.

This week, Sami Sage is back on the podcast (friend and co-founder of Betches Media), and she and Kate meander through a variety of topics, like searching for purpose in your 20s, Hermes/Birkin appointment culture, the democracy debacle, their fav designer/mid-range handbags, and Sami's go-to leather influencer. After Sami gives some hot takes about The Row, toward the end, they recap the #1 show on Netflix right now called Adolescence, and they chat about how online radicalization affects young men and the cultural factors that contribute to toxic masculinity.

This is the inaugural book club meeting of Books That Build which was livestreamed. Michelle is joined by Sami Sage who discusses her journey as a co-founder of Betches Media, co-author of Democracy In Retrograde and the importance of making news accessible to younger audiences. Sami emphasizes the connection between politics and culture, and how civic engagement can serve as a form of self-care. The discussion also covers the significance of local involvement in politics, navigating conversations across political divides, and the role of community in enhancing personal well-being. Michelle and Sami also talk about the challenges of teaching children about complex social issues, the collaborative process of writing Sami's book, and share insights on the cultural phenomenon of the show White Lotus . What We're Talking About Sami Sage is a co-founder of Betches Media, focusing on millennial and Gen Z audiences. Betches News aims to make news consumption accessible and relatable. Politics and culture are intertwined, influencing public perception and engagement. Civic engagement is a form of self-care, fostering community connections. Local involvement in politics can have a significant impact on daily lives. Resistance can take many forms, and small actions can lead to meaningful change. The old political systems are being rejected, necessitating new approaches. Conversations across political divides require patience and understanding. Building community connections enhances personal well-being and social fabric. Living in accordance with one's values leads to a richer life. Racism and other biases are learned behaviors from parents. It's crucial to teach kids about complex issues at an age-appropriate level. Encouraging kids to ask questions helps them form their own opinions. Parents should instill values that counteract negative societal messages. The experiences of millennials and Gen Z shape their perspectives in unique ways. Not all children raised in a certain environment are hopeless causes. It's beneficial for children to know more about the world around them. Collaboration in writing can be challenging but rewarding. Pop culture can reflect and influence societal values and behaviors. Engaging with media critically can enhance understanding of social dynamics.

While some may say 2023 may have been “the year of the girl,” we say, unapologetically, it was the year of the woman. Just take a look at Taylor Swift. In 2023, the term “Swiftonomics'' was coined — because Swift generated significant revenue, tourism, and jobs in every city where she performed. Like many other incredible women, she owned her power in a new way, and the world took notice. Betches Media took this concept — that ALL women should celebrate being powerful, and own our instincts to never back down — and they created a media empire out of it. Sami Sage, co-founder, and ​Chief Brand Officer of Betches Media joins us to talk about selling the brand, and why she’s not afraid to say that she cares about making and spending money in alignment with her goals. In Mailbag, we hear from someone who’s wondering if it’s worth it to maintain two credit cards, and Julia Chatzky asks about best practices for sharing a credit card with your partner.

Betches co-founder, podcast host and Taylor Swift expert Sami Sage (@sami) joins Gibson to discuss all things Taylor Swift. They look at the big picture of what it means to be a Taylor Swift fan in 2023, share their takes on the Travis Kelce of it all, the rollout of "1989 (Taylor's Version)," ponder what led to the apex in popularity she's reached this year and reveal some of their predictions for what Taylor might have planned for the future. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/gabbing-with-gib/support Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, Kate welcomes back Sami Sage (co-founder of Betches) to the podcast to discuss a real grab bag of topics related to current and past pop culture events. They discuss lessons learned from a rewatch of early Southern Charm seasons, the shift in cultural conversation about age gaps, millennials dating to marry versus dating to date, Taylor Swift's recent pap walks, RHONY's new cast, the Tiktok phenomenon of "Tube girl" and the trend about the "female Roman Empire," among other topics. Spoiler alert: they spend the last half hour or so discussing the Roy Man Empire (if you will) since Kate just watched Succession during mat leave and needs Sami's thoughts about the show and the Roy family, and eventually, they close with a few thoughts about TS's newly released vault track titles.

The lord giveth, and the lord taketh away. Following an *impeccable* series finale of Succession (aka Sarah's #1 show, apologies to Manzo'd with Children), Sarah sits down with another superfan to deep dive the multilayered WTF final ep: Sami Sage (cofounder and chief creative officer, Betches Media, and host of the Morning Announcements podcast. They discuss the groundswell of online critique against Shiv's vote (and why that same fervor hasn't applied to Kendall as well), why an outsider position helped Tom in all the ways it held him back before Logan's passing, and what the show's producing/directing heads have discussed about Shiv, Kendall, and Roman's lives after cameras went down (hint: it's not a happy ending).

Wow, Pump Rules, wow. After yet another episode of VPR Masterpiece Theatre, Sarah's cold is magically cured (not quite, but she internalized sniffles like Raquel did everything else). Inspired by Bravo's cinematic arts, Sarah invites a new guest to the People's People's Couch for an epic deep dive: Sami Sage (cofounder and chief creative officer, Betches Media, and host of the Morning Announcements pod). They settle into the cloff and discuss what Tom is getting so deeply wrong about standing as the victim of his own affair, Raquel's narrative centering the affair as a sign of emotional growth and independence, the devastating vulnerability Scheana shared as one of the many friends betrayed by Tom and Raquel, the problematic way James' behavior was used as a tool of distraction/shame by Sandoval, and Sandoval's work to manipulative the affair's origin story in front of the cameras.

On today's episode we are joined by Betches Co-Founder and Chief Creative Officer, Sami Sage. It's not always easy for content creators to stay relevant, but Sami Sage knows how to beat the odds. As audiences become more unpredictable and trends shift, she's been churning out relevant, ever-evolving content for over a decade—and shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. In fact, she’s just getting started. She’s expanding Betches famously irreverent content into new categories and onto new platforms—and bringing it to new audiences in the process. Needless to say, I’m so excited to chat with Sami about how she’s leveraged memes to cultivate a community of 43 million people (!), tapped into a new Gen-Z audience, and so much more.

Aleen is joined by Betches co-founder Sami Sage to talk about her decision to freeze her embryos. They chat about waiting to have kids, fears around parenting and actually being “ready”, and how much our lives really change after starting a family. They also discuss when she started thinking about her fertility options, and the actual costs of embryo freezing. Sami shares more on the process so far, including her first consultation, genetic testing, and ultimately choosing embryo freezing over egg freezing. Then it’s time for some listener DMs, including one from a listener asks how much insurance is actually covering for the whole procedure. Finally, Sami talks about when she’ll know it’s the “right” time to have kids and whether her family was supportive of her decision. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
