Taylor Lorenz

I don't think there's a more important year for Black people.

Listen to Look Back at It on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

taylor do you ever think about bean dad oh my god yes now i do i forgot about that haven't heard that name in years what was your sort of final take on bean dad when it all kicked off do you remember i can't remember why he was canceled it wasn't for putting the fake shrimp in his cereal was it we'll get to it

Good, good.

So psyched to be here.

Once or twice.

yeah i think it's overwhelming at first but i i think it's sort of changed over time too kind of like what it means to be the main character i don't care about it anymore now i'm like let's bring it on you know who cares yeah but it used to be traumatizing the first few times it happened

Oh yeah, I wrote about that.

You know, it's so funny.

And I was talking to this one woman in media also the other day.

And she's like, they're tweeting out my address.

And I was like, girl, they're not going to do a thing.

Trust me.

They're not going to do a thing.

Like people don't even swat anyone anymore.

You know, they're not going to... Nothing happens.
