The Models, The Singer & The NY Times

Hello hello! Today’s episode is proudly sponsored by Scarlet, a new Australian period-care brand aiming to make our cycles more sustainable and redefine the period experience. Follow them on Instagram at @wearescarlet.Now strap in because it's a pop-culture popcorn episode this week with a handful of the latest stories. We discuss Olivia Rodrigo's debut album and Brooke Blurton being announced as the first Indigenous and bisexual Bachelorette. Billie Porter announces he is HIV positive in an open and moving interview and Demi Lovato comes out as gender non-binary to more backlash than we've seen with other celebrities. Maggie reads from an NBC article by Mary Emily O'Hara titled 'Demi Lovato's Non-Binary Revelation Is Important In More Ways Than One'.We then get into a more somber segment as we give context on the tragic Israel/ Palestine conflict which came to a ceasefire late last week. We both recommend this ABC 'Behind The News' explainer on this situation if you're looking for more information as well as Al Jazeera reports. This is because we then discuss the full-page ad run by The New York Times where an independent organisation attacked Bella and Gigi Hadid and Dua Lipa for speaking out against Israel's crimes. It was also reported on by Diet Prada here. Running on from this, Jas recommends the VOX explainer on the Israel/ Palestine conflict this week while Maggie recommends this Sydney Morning Herald article titled 'Meet The McCallum's One Of Australia's Few Amish Families' by Melissa Fyfe.  India Raine is our wonderful producer and composer of our jingle.
