The internet has made being petty practically a competitive sport, and this week we’re wondering when tearing people down became our favorite way to connect.

We’re talking influencer culture, the weird trend of wives publicly disparaging their husbands, and the pressure to “match someone’s energy” in the name of empathy. Because supporting a friend who is frustrated with her marriage probably shouldn’t require us to offer up our own husbands as collateral damage.

Naturally, this takes us straight to Taylor Swift and the internet’s inability to simply let the woman be happy. Our official position: let Taylor enjoy her new hubby. If you’re personally still in your revenge era, Reputation remains available for streaming.

Then we head back into middle school drama, where a conversation about being more precious than rubies brought some unexpected tears and a reminder we probably needed just as much as the middle schooler did. Relationships tumble us. They refine us. They smooth some edges and expose others. And apparently that process doesn’t end when you survive middle school. Who knew?

We wrap things up with a little life chatter and the horrifying realization that becoming a video podcast means we have unintentionally put our feet on the internet.

More precious than rubies. Hopefully less petty than the internet. Still being refined.

Faith, friendship, and a little oversharing. This is Kinda Preachy.
