Jake Shane is responding to the internet’s mockery over his question to Kacey Musgraves about time zones. The country singer appeared on Jake’s podcast Therapuss and they talked about her song Slow Burn. Jake asked about a specific line, which led to Kacey explaining how time zones work.
Kacey said the line was literally what it meant, and that she was thinking about people in different parts of the world when she wrote it. But people online made fun of Jake for seeming not to understand time zones. He’s now laughing it off, sharing memes and news articles about the moment on social media.
Jake posted a screencap of a news article on Instagram and TikTok, along with a meme comparing him to Patrick from SpongeBob SquarePants. He said he’s willing to laugh at himself, adding that he saw the joke on Google. It seems Jake is taking the high road and poking fun at the situation.
