An anti-woke podcast abruptly announces its end, and in its final episode, a host offers its listeners some surprising news. She had taken ayahuasca, a powerful psychedelic, and it had contributed to her decision to step away. The internet, itself, now looked different. Huh? A conversation with former podcast host Sarah Haider.

People sometimes ask me which podcasts I listen to, and my answer is always, not many. I sample here and there, but I only devotedly listen to a few, and they are embarrassingly very popular ones. Every once in a while, though, I stray from my normal imaginary friends and dip into unfamiliar waters. And a month ago, I ended up in what were for me quite strange waters.
A friend who delights in texting me unusual things texted me a podcast link. Had I heard this one? I had not. But once I heard it, it got into my head the way only some things do. The podcast was called A Special Place in Hell.
Welcome to A Special Place in Hell, the podcast where an aging Gen X author and a self-hating millennial activist come together to thoroughly and conclusively solve our culture war problems with our combined wit, wisdom, and most importantly, lived experiences. I am the aging Gen X author, Megan Daum, and with me is the self-hating millennial, Sarah Hader. Hi, Sarah. Hi.
A conversation show, basically an anti-woke podcast, in which the two hosts, week by week, humorously cataloged their disagreements with the online left. Sarah and Megan had been running the show for two years. And from the outside, it seemed to be working. They were finding an audience, they were publishing regularly. Things were going well, up until this episode my friend had sent me.
