## Resource

Episode 20 is here, and Beverly is feeling patriotic, itchy, and grateful (in that order!). After a spirited defense of July 4th hot dogs, Beverly explains how a road trip, a deaf gynecologist, and a very bad yeast infection led to her accidentally naming a certain infamous tragic icon. (It's not what you think, it's worse.) Then, Beverly welcomes an actual Karen! Screenwriter Karen Morse joins the yodcast to discuss the emotional toll of being named Karen in 2026 and what it would take to rebrand the name entirely. Spoiler: Beverly has a plan. Bonus: The machinery breaks down three times. Beverly handles it with grace, gratitude, and a very thinly veiled threat toward Dana. Enjoyyyy!
