Hello our favourite humans on planet earth and welcome to another episode. This week, Izzy's fleeing from fighting Karens on the tube, Grace is continuing to set fire to things, and we reminisce about an iconic man named Adam. Then, it's onto mindless celebrity gossip: Why is Kourtney Kardashian pulling a T-Swift/Tom Hiddleston with 20-year-old TikTok star Addison Rae? Who is the iconic celebrity hanger-on called Shiraz, and why is he facilitating D-list celebrity gossip during the pandemic? Who is Harry Jowsey again? Then it's onto some actual gossip: Lily James was spotted pashing actually-married man Dominic West. We discuss the legacy of the 'other woman' trope in Hollywood (career-ruining?) and how internalised misogyny is playing out in James' comments section, before arguing about whether or not Dominic West is hot (he is). Then it's onto romance: We're six months into the pandemic, how has it effected the way we date? Izzy gives us a firsthand account of the basic problem at the heart of online dating: Anyone who looks good on Tinder, probably sucks in real life. Speaking of Tinder, Four Corners just released a shocking report highlighting Tinder's negligence in keeping abusive men off their app. It's a hugely-disturbing must watch. THEN, onto Emily in Paris - why does everyone hate Darren Star's silly French comedy so much?You can follow us on Instagram: @afterworkdrinkspodcast, @grceoneill, @isabelletruman, or join our closed Facebook group, After Work Drinks Podcast.
