Says Who?

Says Who?

Maureen Johnson and Dan Sinker

In 2016, two friends—and author and a journalist--sat down to ride through the final weeks of the Presidential election by talking to the journalists covering it. They thought they were doing eight episodes. They were wrong. What started as a short trip has become a long and strange journey. They’ve gotten weird. They’ve made friends along the way. Mostly, the weird part, though. Join #1 New York Times bestselling author Maureen Johnson, and legendary publisher of Punk Planet Magazine Dan Sinker as they digest the news each week. Says Who: it’s not a podcast—it’s a coping strategy.

12/11/24 • 63 min

There’s a chill in the air, SaysWhovia! We’ve entered the holiday season! Everyone is out on the streets, bustling about in their coats and hats, carrying their bags—their holiday shopping! Their groceries for holiday meals! Their manifestos!

Yes. Dan and Maureen are going to talk about our strange National Catharsis, the surreal week in which an assassin named Luigi left clues all over NYC and the NYPD took a walk in the park. And somehow, it always comes back to McDonalds.

Says Who? - DAN'S VERY BAD LIST
play

02/12/25 • 68 min

Have you ever made a list, SaysWhovia? Stuff you need from the store. Ingredients for dinner. Things you need to do. Things to pack. Ways to undo all American institutions by basically letting a bunch of fascist raccoons into the attic? Well, Dan has made a list of all the things that happened this week. No. He made a list of SOME of them, because no one has the whole list. And he has decided to read this list to Maureen. Only he knows why. IT IS A VERY BAD LIST.

On the plus side—bingo! And a visit from a shoe. And apparently Dan was wiretapped once?

Let’s take Dan’s phone away, SaysWhovia. Just for a little while.

Says Who? - THE LONGEST TWEET
play

12/14/22 • 61 min

Dan and Maureen are all atitter in the holiday rush! So much so that Dan has written no notes. He is living his best life now, in his coveralls, making things in his basement. His life is fresh and new. Maureen prepares for holiday travels and life on the road.
So of course they’re going to talk some more about Twitter, the great internet tire fire.
Also, theiy probe their deep childhood love of pricing household goods. Every child enjoys guessing the cost of ham!
Ring a ding ding! Come sit by the fire, SaysWhovia!

Says Who? - MAUREEN'S PLAN
play

01/24/24 • 63 min

It’s the first big political event of 2024, sort of! It’s the New Hampshire primary, and everyone is excited. Right? Is that excitement? Dan isn’t sure.

Ron DeSantis has dropped out of the race, dragging Florida down with him into the swamp, where he will live with sewage and alligators. Trump continues to be on trial. So...is any of this news? Is it news if you knew it already? What to do with this zombie of a year?

Enter Maureen, with a plan. She has a plan, everyone. A good plan to fix it all.

Gather round, SaysWhovia. Listen to the plan!

Maureen has been out in the rain. She is damp and bedraggled. Dan is here to cheer her up with news!

The WGA strike appears to be over! Collection action works! So we’ve got that going for us! Also, the government is probably going to shut down, a Democratic Senator is taking gold bars, there’s a debate happening that no one wants to watch, and Donald Trump expressed a wish to buy a Glock.

But all of this is just preamble to Maureen talking about a weird meeting, and Dan recreating that meeting in far too accurate detail.

It’s almost October, SayWhovia. Smoke ‘em if you’ve got ‘em.

After the tribulations of last week, Maureen and Dan are back and in better form. They have nice shirts on. They’re awake. Everything’s going great! Except that there’s COVID in the house of mj. Also, she saw a good dead rat.

Was last week a dream? Did that impeachment threat ever materialize? No. No one can explain it. But Hunter Biden is in the news because of a gun. Because we care about guns now? lol.

Also, Lauren Boebert went to a show. Things got juicy.

Put your phones and vapes away, SaysWhovia. The show is about to start.

09/13/23 • 60 min

Dan hasn’t slept in four days. Maureen just had a root canal three hours ago and is still groggy from drugs. Things start a bit loosey-goosey, but take a strong turn when Maureen tells Dan about some news he hasn’t heard. A certain dot f y I fella isn’t quite ready to handle it.

Group nap after this one, Sayswhovia. Group nap.
