Contrast: cautious driving vs. impulsive speeding

In the Text Me Back universe, Meagan and Lindy are but 22 days into the year. Ahhh so young so innocent. Their New Year's Resolutions clinging so bravely on.

BUT FIRST. Not one, but TWO surprise microsegments from these two crazy ladies. Find out what little treat Lindy is finding criminally underrated, and which 2025 film has left Meagan losing faith in the integrity of the Oscars. Tell us which film you’re committing crimes to help win best picture in the discord at patreon.com/textmebackpod #oscarssocars 

And in our headlining segment of the week, gird your loins and check your bedsheets, we’re bringing back one of our OG segments. That’s right…it’s time for SNAKE OF THE WEEK.

OUR CONTENDERS FOR SNAKE OF THE WEEK:

• SOTW #1
• SOTW #2
• SOTW #3
• SOTW #4
• SOTW #5

As always, email us with your thoughts, and with any personal snakes of the week you’d like us to be aware of via deartextmeback@gmail.com.

And on an animal-related note: How much onion can a dog eat? Licensed vets, please contact the BFF party phone at (703) 829-0003 if you’d like to be our resident veterinarian, we have a loooot of ailing animals.
