The Week That Was: Tony’s, TikToks & Turtlenecks

This week, Kate & Tansy are layered up and fired up—literally and emotionally. From dodging scarf static to dodging the collapse of global democracy, the girls serve their usual mix of camp theatre critique, cultural chaos, and deep soul-searching.🎭 First stop: The Tony Awards, where Tansy breaks down the queer excellence, chaotic performances, and why non-binary icon Cole Escola won hearts (and a Tony). We’re talking Bernadette Peters cosplay, drag as dramaturgy, and the very necessary death of stunt casting. Audra was robbed, but theatre weirdos reign supreme.Then we shift hard -binto America’s unfolding nightmare. ICE raids. Peaceful protestors being attacked. Journalists shot at. The girls discuss censorship, shadowbans, and how TikTok is becoming a tool of state control. They grapple with what it means to stay joyful in the face of despair and how to balance pleasure with protest.Back on home turf, Tansy’s moving in with her partner (into a house with doors!!), Kate’s sourcing kitchen islands like a Facebook Marketplace witch, and both are dodging spiritual breakdowns via Mormon reality TV. Yes, we deep dive into MomTok’s Mormon Wives, ketamine therapy, champagne gate, and the wild gender politics of being a breadwinning influencer in Utah.It’s equal parts Bernadette Peters and dystopia - welcome to your weekly cultural scream therapy.#TheWeekThatWas #TonyAwards #ColeEscola #ICEraids #TikTokBan #MormonWives #MomTok #PopCulturePodcast #CulturalCommentary #Broadway #TheatreKids #RealityTV #ImmigrationJustice #JoyAsResistance #FacebookMarketplaceMagic #UnfilteredPodcast
