Welcome to our BICENTENNIAL (??) EPISODE! In this famous Text Me Back episode you will experience the feeling of aging two years in just 75 minutes!  We start off strong with a We Done Done It Again (Dept. of Corrections) where we humbly correct the record to share that Jeff Merkley (of Senatorial fame) stood BY HIS OWN POWER NONSTOP for 22 hours. We got it twisted, and we generally advise against that! And since Text Me Back is your go-to political podcast, Lindy quizzes herself LIVE! How many US Senators can YOU name? Sporcle, SPONSOR US we are driving dozens of people to your hyperspecific quizzes!!!! (Clue: Jerry Seinfeld and Julia Louis-Dreyfus are NOT currently US Senators).  Since it’s our two-year anniversary, we bring you a Normal News/Meagan’s TikTok digest, AND Lindy’s surprise Microsegment (btw if you are CEO of Ruffles…what did you do to that chip and WHY?). Plus, Lindy coins a new tag for the show, begging the question: What’s YOUR favorite bit and/or shit from Text Me Back Podcast? Write in at deartextmeback@gmail.com or give us a call at (703) 829-0003. And finally, in a rare moment of sincerity, we conclude by setting aside our Tom and Jerry dynamic momentarily and getting earnest. BFFs being nice to each other?? Is that even legal????
