If you’re going to make a big deal about how hip you are and understand a pop culture reference, probably good to get the artist who’s being referenced correct.

I'll be honest. It's been a long day and I'm maybe just being a dumb guy. But as far as I can tell, the Chappell Roan reference is correct. Although as I said, I'm not exactly a super fan.

And FWIW, I'd never claim to be a hip guy. I just have a teenager and know how to use Google.

I wouldn’t have bothered if your tone hadn’t been so dismissive - I’m hardly hip myself and not really into commenting much - but your post seems to conflate CR and Charlie XVX, who’s the arbiter of “brat”. No biggie. :)

No, I'm glad you commented. Rereading it, I could have been clearer.

And I need to be more precise with my tone. I wasn't trying to be dismissive. I was more trying to make the point that if I know who they are, certainly they should. I am the low bar for pop culture hipness knowledge.

Thanks for the feedback and for reading the newsletter!
