Listen "6. When John Mulaney Met Anna Marie Tendler *TEASER*"
Episode Synopsis
This is a teaser for our bonus episode about John Mulaney & Anna Marie Tendler, available on Patreon!
John Mulaney's adoration for his wife, artist Anna Marie Tendler, was a frequent segment in his comedy specials, making their separation in 2021 a shock to fans. More shocking was John's suspiciously sudden pregnancy with Olivia Munn, prompting disappointed fans to turn on the comedian and "pick Anna in the divorce."
Meanwhile, other fans have been critical of the "parasocial fixation" on their relationship when we "don't know the full story." While we'll never know all the facts, Mel breaks down their public relationship timeline to piece together what happened. We also analyze Anna's heartbreaking photography ("Rooms in the First House") and theorize why this breakup may connect to others.
