#151: Elliot Page, COVID resets, Wedgie shorts

It’s quite a time for butts in fashion too, and of course we have many thoughts. Cher has rescued an elephant, and another monolith has popped up; Myf has the breaking news on both. And we’re banging on about a brilliant new podcast, and an award winning Australian novel.Show notes:Elliot Page comes out: https://www.instagram.com/p/CIQ1QFBhNFg/Arts Criticism may never be the same: https://www.washingtonpost.com/entertainment/museums/museums-art-criticism-covid-transformed/2020/11/25/a5623b9e-290d-11eb-8fa2-06e7cbb145c0_story.htmlLive music more accessible: https://www.abc.net.au/triplej/programs/hack/live-music-more-accessible-for-people-with-disabilities/12944018Wedgie shorts: https://au.sports.yahoo.com/wedgie-trend-butt-crack-cleavage-fashion-nova-000054293.htmlButt masks: https://aceology.co/products/cheeky-butt-mask-trioCher saved an elephant: https://edition.cnn.com/videos/travel/2020/11/29/cher-elephant-rescue-kaavan-pakistan-travel-orig-ch.cnnMonolith watch: https://www.ladbible.com/news/news-mysterious-monolith-similar-to-one-found-in-utah-appears-in-romania-20201130Stuff The British Stole: https://www.abc.net.au/radionational/programs/stuff-the-british-stole/The Yield: https://www.penguin.com.au/books/yield-the-9780143785750Email us to Bang Back: [email protected] On is produced by Double J and is recorded on the lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation.
