Off the top, Ama & Danita cover the latest in cursed internet content, from James Corden's flash mobs and Kanye's latest album launch. BTW, if our opening isn't as ~timely~ as usual, it's because LIFE HAPPENS. But hello, it's us from a few weeks ago!

Then, two Amandas are better than one as Ama welcomes Amanda Montell, author of Cultish: The Language of Fanaticism to talk about the power of words, Instagram cults, and Mormon MLMs.
