Whichever you are, you probably feel pretty strongly about this.The cruise industry has come roaring back from the brink since the lifting of pandemic restrictions, and there’s never been more to do while you’re at sea. So for the slight majority of you who, statistically, aren’t cruise fans, today’s guest poses a question: why not? Ezra Dyer, senior editor at Car and Driver, joins us to argue that cruises are the kind of tacky fun that you might just like… in spite of yourself.If you have thoughts you want to share, or an idea for a topic we should tackle, you can email the show: hearmeout@slate.comPodcast production by Maura CurrieYou can skip all the ads in Hear Me Out by joining Slate Plus.

Slate Money: ESPN Bets on Sports Betting

Talk about ’90s rap, and most music fans will throw around the word “gangsta” and talk about the East Coast–West Coast feud that tragically brought down Biggie and Tupac. But one rap group, OutKast, quite literally rose above the fray: At the 1995 Source Awards, while East and West were bickering with each other, OutKast’s André Benjamin took the mic and told the rap faithful that hip-hop’s future was in the South. For the next quarter century, he was proved indisputably correct.OutKast brought about this sea change by conceiving of hip-hop as everything music: funk, soul, pop, club, even country and indie all found their way into André and Big Boi’s music. By the time of their final studio album, they had pulled away almost fully from pure rap—and were rewarded with their biggest hits ever, a No. 1 smash each for Big Boi and André. Including that immortal jam that taught you, the fellas and the ladies—including all Beyoncés and Lucy Lius—what’s cooler than being cool.Podcast production by Benjamin Frisch and Kevin Bendis.

Hit Parade: Shake It Like a Polaroid Picture Edition Part 1

According to the United Nations, more civilians died in Haiti than died in Ukraine during the first few months of 2023. Institutions have collapsed; violent gangs control the capital, and kidnappers are terrorizing citizens.

On today’s episode of A Word, Jason Johnson is joined by Patrick Gaspard, chief of the Center for American Progress think tank, who argues the U.S. has a moral obligation to intervene.

Working: Vacation Like a Pro

Get the Culture Gabfest and all of Slate's culture coverage here.

I usually love culture gabfest, but they dismissed Tiger King WAY too quickly. It just felt contrarian and dismissive and they totally failed to address the pop culture moment of the show itself. We get it. You’re too good to enjoy trash with the rest of us. Like they enjoyed the Circle and couldn’t deign to discuss Tiger King holistically? I’ve also been annoyed at all of the presenters  making little side comments that make it seem like they’re not wealthy. I think Steve or Dana were saying something about having to pay off their student loans. HA! Nice try distancing from your bougie selves. There’s just such a lack of self awareness, especially with Steve.

Out of Touch

Dana Stevens is a treasure. That’s all you need to know.

Daaaaaaaaynuh!
