Heather Anne Campbell (a writer for Rick + Morty and a lot of other things) is one of the 3 hosts (all of whom have experience as improv comedians) of my favorite podcast "Get Played", about video games, and now I am pretty certain that a podcast with fans of a topic who are funny will beat a podcast of experts in the same topic. (Also I think 3 hosts works better than 2, especially when 2 is really "1 plus a sidekick.)
I was thinking I needed some new pillows, but I think I'll pass on the "Nazi coded dog whistle" (14 and 88 are pretty damn well established pro-Nazi codes, and while I'm not saying Lindell himself is advocating Nazi, someone in his org definitely is, or at the very least having a laugh.)

When times are tough I sometimes find it weird that my online media comfort food is a combination of pleated-jeans, cracked, and lamebook. All 3 are a bit low rent in terms of ads (less so lamebook) but they do a decent job of curating some of the funniest stuff while remaining catch-up-able; unlike instagram and tik-tok that really lean into doomscrolling. (And frankly tumblr has gotten a bit time consuming to try and keep up with)

Anyway, this pleated-jeans What-Happens-When gallery was pretty cool.
