    The Summer of Corona

    As summer ends and school begins again, I get into the absolute mess that was Summer 2020. Pandemic and all, I'm so happy that I took time this summer to create Larger Than Life, which has become one of my personal favourite projects that I've done. Thank you so much to all the listeners for such a fun ride. See you soon for Season 2!

    New WAPportunities

    After releasing their new single together, Megan Thee Stallion and Cardi B have come under fire by everybody and their uncle's mom. In today's episode, I'm taking a look into the song and video, but specifically at the comments made by men on this topic. Common theme: stay out of women's business. Please.

    Kombucha Girl's AAVE Masterclass

    In a time when performative allyship regarding race relations is at an all-time high, many self-proclaimed "allies" are letting their asses hang out. Whether it is the use of a blaccent to mock black people or the misuse of a AAVE sans knowing why it it problematic for non-black people to speak it, there has been a plethora of confusion and racist incidents popping up all over the internet. Let's sort some of this nonsense out.

    Increasingly becoming one of Gen Z's favourite social media apps, TikTok has created boatloads of controversy regarding its ethics, safety, content, and influence. In this 2-part series, I'll be diving into the app and sort some of this mess out. Today, I'm discussing the political implications of the app, as well as the political content present. So so so messy.

    Slacktivism

    Due to a recent reinvigoration of social activism for a variety of reasons, notably Black Lives Matter, many people have taken to social media to vocalize their support for different causes as a way to stand in solidarity. Or is it just to virtue signal? Today, I'm getting into online activism and the dreaded wall of IG stories we've witnessed in recent weeks. Go vote, losers!

    The Case For Azealia Banks

    After all the drama surrounding Kanye West and his mental health after a rally, many people have taken the time to call out misogynoir, specifically towards Azealia Banks. Today, I’ll be exploring her treatment by the media, her controversial past, and her incredible art. I hate the world!

    Wayfairgate

    In the year since the arrest and death of billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, there has been a general reinvigoration of the public's interest in the secret dirty dealings of the wealthiest class. Epstein's associate Gislaine Maxwell was recently arrested when images of her next to dozens of celebrities and socialites resurfaced, one of them being the CEO of Wayfair. This sparked a renewal of a conspiracy theory that the company is involved in child sex trafficking, and I'll be diving deep into that topic today. Ew. Jesus. Gross.
