171: 3M DOWNLOADS 🍾🍾🍾 Guana Island Recap + Jonah Hill Texts

Pop Apologists has received 3 million downloads, so it was time for Lauren and Chan to celebrate with a trip to Guana Island! After hearing about the relaxed and luxurious all-inclusive experience, it is easy to see why Lauren (and now Chan!) love this island so much. In a true stroke of luck, one of their follow vacationers had some Nashville celebrity tea, and the gals heard all about it. Prepare yourself for funny stories about Taylor Swift and her mom Andrea, as well as wholesome stories about Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman that will only increase your love for the couple. Chan shares her annoyance with Lauren’s Serena Joy energy toward her vacation outfit planning, e.g. naked dresses, and Lauren gives her reasoning for encouraging a more country club casual look. In the end, the gals took a note from Taylor Swift and packed fits to make the whole place ✨shimmer✨, at least for a few minutes, before changing back into their more comfortable linen and gingham attire.  The gals then discuss the text messages between Jonah Hill and his ex-girlfriend Sarah Brady. The misogynistic ways that Jonah requests Sarah to behave in the name of “boundaries” is giving them serious incel vibes and serves as a major word of caution for anyone who has a partner that tries to dim their light because it makes them insecure. Lauren and Chan bring other perspectives into the discussion, such as House in Habit’s defense of Jonah Hill, where she uses Simone Biles level mental gymnastics to spin Jonah’s behavior into “maintaining healthy boundaries” and somehow paints Sarah Brady as the problem. For anyone wondering where Lauren and Chan have gotten some of their best looks, you’re in luck!
