The Week That Was: Brat Sneakers, Aldi Carnage & Why Everyone Thinks The Pit Is Lost
from The Blunt and The Beautiful · host Stitch Up
This week, Kate and Tansy are talking It Girl sneakers, office women fighting in Aldi, and the deeply troubling fact that people no longer seem capable of watching a normal television drama without trying to solve it like it’s a murder mystery.Naturally, things spiral.We get into the rise of the Adidas Tokyo as the latest cool girl shoe, why slim little sneakers are apparently all anyone needs now, and why some shoes are chic while others are, unfortunately, complete fuggers.There’s also chaos at Aldi over plastic chopping boards, Emma Chamberlain selling aggressively beige furniture to the masses, and a woman politely informing Kate that she was “much smaller than expected” in real life, which is both an insult and a medical observation.Plus:why Dakota Johnson continues to inspire the long-haired Pinterest women of the worldwhether The Pit is just a drama or if everyone has completely lost the ability to sit with uncertaintywhy people are being deeply weird about Aubrey Plaza moving on with her lifeThe Other Bennet Sister and the return of yearning men with nice facesDevil Wears Prada 2, obviouslyand an Aries astrology update for the hotheads and overreactors among usIt’s fashion, television, internet brain rot, and just enough cultural criticism to make us sound smarter than we are.As always, we solve nothing.But we do have thoughts!#theweekthatwas #thebluntandthebeautiful #podcastaustralia #popculture #celebritynews #fashiontrends #adidas #aldifinds #internetculture #tvrecap #thepit #devilwearsprada #dakotajohnson #emmachamberlain #aubreyplaza #melbournepodcast #comedypodcast #womeninmedia #trendingnow #popculturepodcast
