Yeah there was a whole show about it, Grace and Frankie

Yeah, in the context of the show it's the name of Bell's dating podcast. I think it's supposed to be cheeky.

ME TALKING ABOUT MY CHILDHOOD: Oh yeah so the year I was twelve my dad basically wasn't around much because he was across the country being a bone marrow donor for his sister who was dying of acute leukemia and anyway, the transplants didn't work and she died. NBD LOL whatever

Yep

Peter Thiel and Nick Denton have way more in common than people think, I'll just say that

I don't think they ever say what her dad's job is, his whole bit is just "woops I realized late in life I'm gay and now I'm married to a man and your mom is not dealing with it well"

How would someone grow up in LA and not know the word shalom?

Also the show is definitely like, "Let's make this character who would definitely know Jews be REALLY dumb about Judaism to make her more accessible to the Midwest"

Looooooooooool

(I don't think what's happened to me is a big deal, but that's because I've been so coached to minimize my own trauma that, "My mom was voting in the World Financial Center when the first plane hit the World Trade Center" feels like a nothingburger. 🙃)
