Hot Off The Press: Lindy West’s polyamory drama explained

from The Reheat · host Sadaf Ahsan, Sarah Sahagian

In this week's Hot Off The Press, we unpack the internet’s fixation on Lindy West’s new memoir and the intense backlash to her revelations about polyamory, marriage, and power dynamics, along with the viral fallout, including a shocking email. We also break down the abrupt cancellation of Taylor Frankie Paul’s Bachelorette season after a resurfaced video reignited concerns about reality TV vetting and accountability, and end on a lighter (but no less obsessive) note with Leighton Meester teasing a possible return of Blair Waldorf — and what a millennial reboot of Gossip Girl could actually look like. 📚 For further reading:Slate: "Lindy West’s How-Not-To Guide to Polyamory"Slate's ICYMI Podcast: "Why The Internet Is Arguing About Its Favourite Feminist" 🎧 A few recent episodes we think you might like:JFK Jr. & Carolyn Bessette: Inside the true, tragic love storyThe wildest cheating scandals, from the Try Guys to the Wiggles, with Taylor Lindsay-NoelThe many scandals and stories surrounding Gossip Girl 🔗 Once you're done listening, why not subscribe to our Patreon here?
