Rage Bait

Oxford named rage bait the Word of the Year and honestly, that choice alone rage-baited half the internet. We discuss how anger spreads faster than joy and conclude that outrage has become the world’s most addictive currency. AND, we rage bait ourselves by reading off hate comments left for us and our eyewear. Plus, Tara reveals she’s now carrying an infectious disease so alarming it deserves its own public health billboard. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
