Hello, hello everybody. You might have already heard this Benny Blanco episode. It was from about a year ago,

but now that his and Selena's new collaboration album is out, and I feel like he's, I don't know if he's on a PR tour or if just like all of the clips on TikTok are resurfacing. And people are like, oh my God, I had no idea. Beni Blanco made all of like the pop music that I listened to growing up.

I thought now could be a good time to kind of resurface this episode for anyone who's new to the podcast and hasn't listened to it for the first time or anyone who just kind of wants to catch on back up on Benny Blanco.

Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco had started dating and she responded saying facts underneath the

Instagram post. That led to a whole, what did I say, shitstorm and rigmarole. Anyway, that happened

where people were weighing in with their opinion about the relationship and she was directly

responding to them. It got messy. I made popcorn. It excited me. Did it excite you? And the main thing that I was

seeing people talk about was, who is Benny Blanco? Like, who is this man? And I've known about him
