#284: Beyoncé, Lizzo, 3 Body Problem Bang On
-
- Society & Culture
It's been a big week for music, and we're all in with Beyoncé's "Cowboy Carter". Myf and Zan celebrate the highlights, unpack the songs that don't quite hit the mark, and share some easter eggs from the album too.
Lizzo quit, then didn't, and we're confused. Meanwhile Billie Eilish is getting some backlash after calling out special edition vinyl, but y'know what? She'll be the one inheriting the earth that Rolling Stones fans have filled with plastic.
A longread on The Cut has the world talking and the comments section aflame. We try and make sense of the writer praising marrying old (up) and its warped feminist bent. And we're banging on about new Netflix series "3 Body Problem" and comedy festival season!
