Hello listeners! I apologise that it has been a while, BUT I wanted to get this episode out while it was still somewhat timely.Man's Best Friend by Sabrina Capenter dropped last Friday on 30th August, but was plagued by controversy right from its get-go, with a cover that got internet goers everywhere talking. But was this fair? We'll discuss in this episode referentialism, 50s tropes, choice feminism, and kink culture, with a bit of real feminist theory from our special guest Zoe! So buckle up and enjoy!
