Hi pals, We get right into it today with our thoughts on Emma Chamberlain’s Arch Digest Tour. Next, Bella Hadid broke the internet as the supermodel had a dress spray-painted on her at the Coperni SS23 at PFW. We go into the science behind the tech and ask if fashion houses are engaging in stunts for our entertainment and algorithms. While we spoke about Marilyn Monroe last week, we're back with an update as sex toy brand Womanizer has released a vibrator in "collaboration" with the icon. We discuss the ethics behind this as well as the reviews of Blonde that have come out. We reference Katherine Singh's piece for Refinery29 titled Leave Marilyn Monroe Alone. This chat causes us to discuss what we ask of celebrities after their death and how we take and take. VICE AU's editor, Brad Esposito references this question in a piece titled Death Is Real for his Substack newsletter, Very Fine Day. Another week, another cheating scandal! This week, instead of a major musician caught in the act of infidelity, we’ve seen Ned Fulmer of the Try Guys be called out online. We break down the drama and ask if this is the death of the 'Wife Guy'. We read from The Sydney Morning Herald article by Angus Dalton titled Unpacking The Try Guys Schism: YouTube’s Wholesome Foursome Split By Scandal as well as Melissa Mason's Why You Should Never Trust A Hollywood Wife Guy and The World Is Done with Wife Guys. Thank Goodness For That by Arwa Mahdawi for The Guardian. For recommendations, Jas loved Hocus Pocus 2 for all you Halloween-lovers out there while Maggie is loving the podcast Normal Gossip. She also side recommends this piece for The New York Times by Kelsey McKinney on why we shouldn't demonise gossiping. This causes Jas to share an excerpt from Silvia Federici’s book, Witches, Witch-Hunting, and Women.Katie Zhou created our cover art & India Raine is our wonderful producer and composer of our jingle.
