He did rivalries a massive hit. Everyone's talking about the sex, but it's just as much about the exquisite pain of having a crush. And I think yearning can provide this sort of, like, masochistic joy, too. And, like, we all need more joy in our lives right now. This week on Explain It To Me from Vox, love hurts. And it hurts so good. New episodes Sundays wherever you get your podcasts.
Today's number 93. Polymarket accurately called 93% of the Golden Globes winners last week. The Golden Globes really isn't an award ceremony. It's not a joke? No, and that's me pausing because I forgot what I was going to say. I think I came up with something good. Today's number 93. Polymarket accurately called 93% of the Golden Globes winners last week. The Alzheimer's is kicking in. It's time to call my nurse, reheat my soup. Today's number 93. Polymarket accurately called 93% of the Golden Globe winners last week. That's incredible. The Golden Globes isn't as much as an award show as it is a gathering of people who would fuck their sister for a limited series on Hulu.
Ed, how are you?
I'm doing well, but I'm a little upset that we were not nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Podcast. There were a lot of nominations. It was the first year that the podcast category was created, and we were not on the list. And so I'm a little bit upset about it. Other than that, I'm doing very well. How are you? I was watching the award speeches on TikTok of all places, and I thought, that is the exact same vibe and tone I use to thank my dealer. It's like, it's got that same, oh, thanks, man. It's got that same sort of vibe. Or when I roll up to a bar, and I remember I didn't put on deodorant, but at that point, I remember where the deodorant bar is. I don't know. I know where I was going with that.
I thought the nominees for best podcast were really solid. Mel Robbins is great. It was just all the most famous people. They didn't have Rogan. They didn't have Ben Shapiro. Sure. It was the most famous people that were not politically divisive. Who else was in there? Obviously, Amy Poehler. There's a little bit of backlash in the podcast community. Let me spill the tea here, Ed. Please. I think she's a remarkable talent. And although she has not invited me on her podcast, I've been on every one of the podcasts except for the woman who won, Amy. Everyone in the podcast community is a little bit like- Oh, Amy won. I didn't even see who won. It was Amy. Yeah, Amy Poehler won. And by the way, I think she just, not that she deserved to win.
It's a good choice. Her podcast is fantastic. She's fantastic. But the podcast community is a little bit upset because a lot of us have been doing this for a while. Amy showed up about 12, 18 months ago and then won the first award. So there's a little bit of chatter in the podcast community. Understandably. Did you enjoy the Golden Globes? I did not watch it. I didn't even see who won. I was going to ask you if you watched it. Sounds like you watched it from your phone. I do what everyone does. I watch the clips. Yeah, I watch the clips. I didn't even see any of the clips. Maybe I'm bitter again about this lack of nomination. What media does Ed Elson consume? I always assume it's me, that I'm just aging out, that I'm watching CBS and CNN and, you know, asking for a new oxygen tank.
