Summary
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. Enjoy!

| 0:00.0 | Hi, everybody. Welcome back to the Be Therein 5 podcast. I'm Kate Kennedy, your host. |
| 0:15.3 | I feel like it's been a minute since we've done more current event style snorkeling through |
| 0:23.0 | what's been happening this week, this month, you know, passing TikTok and Reels Trends, |
| 0:30.1 | pop culture news, what I've been watching on TV and whatnot. And so I called in reinforcements |
| 0:37.5 | today to talk with me about really all the things I've been wanting to talk to another |
| 0:42.2 | adult about since I've been hanging out with a baby. And I called one of your favorites |
| 0:47.3 | and a dear friend of mine, Sammy Sage, one of the co-founders of Betches, Betches media, |
| 0:53.7 | who has hosted or been a part of so many of the podcasts in the Betches universe over the years |
| 1:01.6 | and has had me on as a guest and I love having her here. And she's just the perfect person to |
| 1:05.6 | kind of shoot the shit with about what's going on in pop culture and like me, she loves to kind of |
| 1:10.9 | analyze it to a level where we're like, what's what's the deeper meaning here? So we have a really |
| 1:16.7 | fun convo that like starts with us just casually talking about watching old seasons of Southern |

| 1:25.5 | for example. And then we kind of briefly touch on Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner. And the reason I'm |
| 1:30.2 | mentioning this in the intro is because as I record this, the morning of Thursday, September 21st, |
| 1:37.0 | news just broke about them. It was kind of quiet for a minute when the divorce was initially |
| 1:43.0 | circulating around the media. It really seemed like Joe's team put it out and was angling that |
| 1:50.1 | Sophie was like absent in England when she was like on a job and then they were like pictures |
| 1:55.3 | at least of her like partying when she was like with her cast at an after party. It was kind of |
| 2:00.0 | this really what seemed like a frustrating effort to paint her in a certain light, an effort to |
| 2:05.5 | inform what looked like he was seeking in a custody battle. And it was just a really unfair depiction |
| 2:12.7 | of who she was as a mom. And I think I think most of us were like absolutely not team Sophie. I |
