Much like a celebrity driving a brand-new Bugatti through Midtown Manhattan, this week we dealt with the consequences of terrible, yet predictable, situations. Following a flight to London, Brian got swept up in a delegation from Mauritius before being forced to surrender to the Heathrow airport authorities as an unregistered foreign agent. Meanwhile, Rachel was on her couch in New York contending with a Twitter pile-on for insulting the appearance and demeanor of Kimberly Guilfoyle. We conclude that we’ve hit peak pop-up in San Francisco, as a bar for humans and rats to intermingle is debuting with a $50 cover charge. Also in San Francisco: a new pogo-stick rental company called Cangoroo purports to help people commute to work by hopping around on vertiginous inclines. Los Angeles real-estate brokers hosted a Hieronymus Bosch-themed party with actors dressed as Adam and Eve and embalmed snakes in cocktails. West End theatrical productions are serving culinary abominations to the audience during live shows. And, finally, we describe a job listing from Craigslist for a “pro-bonobo” receptionist. Plus: just in time for Pride, we speak to the cohosts of the infamous podcast The Sydney Gays, which has torn the land down under asunder.
