Stop The Show

We’re back, baby! Thanks so much for your patience as we took a little bit of time off for Jas to settle into her brand new job. 

After a bit of life chit-chat, we delve into the dating rumours surrounding comedian Pete Davidson and Kim Kardashian. Is this another Kris Jenner PR stunt or is Pete just... a really nice guy? 

This topic also causes us to mull over the double standards surrounding the way the media is talking about PD versus women who date a lot of other celebrities. 

Next up, the tragic news that unfolded over the weekend in the US where 8 people lost their lives at Travis Scott’s Astroworld Festival. We recount what happened and discuss Travis’ history of inciting riotous behaviour, the violent themes of Astroworld “ragers” and whether this tragedy will make us rethink huge festivals. 

We reference this Instagram post by user Seanna Faith McCarty, a woman who was there and attempted to get a cameraman’s attention. 

Prefacing this next topic with a content warning for homophobia and rape culture, Australian photographer, James J. Robinson broke into his old private school last week to protest the school’s elite, toxic culture. We discuss the response to the brave photography series and Australia’s rotten patriarchal private school culture. We reference this VICE article by Julie Fenwick. 

For our first week back, Maggie recommends Love & Virtue, a book by Diana Reid and Jas recommends Eiffel, a romantic French film starring Sex Education’s Emma Mackey.
