Hi pals, Welcome to another episode of Culture Club. We start off with a little chat about mental health in yet another lockdown. What are some ways you're keeping sane? Next, we dissect the double-whammy of Gen Zs in American politics. Olivia Rodrigo asked young people to stay "happy and healthy" by getting vaccinated while Addison Rae introduced herself to a certain disgraced US president in Las Vegas. This sparked a conversation around the celebrification of politicians, is it sneaking into Australia? 17-year-old actress Millie Bobby Brown was unfairly targeted by an ex-beau on a live stream this week. The revolting video makes us question why society let former teen pop stars date older men in the 00s as well as the dangers of hypersexualising teen girls. We read from this article titled How We've Failed Millie Bobby Brown by Alia E. Dastagir for USA Today.Funnily enough, we both recommend content from ABC iView. Maggie recommends the rom-com series Starstruck while Jas recommends the documentary series Ms Represented with political journalist Annabel Crabb. Katie Zhou created our fab new cover art and India Raine is our wonderful producer and composer of our jingle.
