Where Are All The Thinkers?
from Culture Club Hosted by ODd Network
Hi friends! This week we’re basking in the literary glow of the Melbourne Writers Festival, and feeling the pre-event buzz of AFW (Australian Fashion Week). After our catch-up, we dive into our chit-chat of the week including the latest Harry Styles’ sighting, and an update on Maggie’s White Boy of The Month. In our Culture Shock, the partner of disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes, Billy Evans, has begun raising money for his new start-up, a blood-testing company. Sorry, what? We reference The Dropout podcast and TV series. FKA twigs has caused a TikTok lol after positing a profound question on the stage of Resident Advisor Exchange Live at AVA London. We reference the TikTok and ask why celebrities are like this. Next, are your Sonny Angels a recession indicator? Enter: Labubu — the latest “it” collectible with jagged teeth, furrowed brows and a $30+ price tag (if you’re lucky). We share our own thoughts on the collectible craze and reference a piece by Simran Pasricha for PEDESTRIAN.TV which suggests that trinkets like Sonny Angels, Miffys, and Jellycats are more than just cute. In Bookmarked, Jas recommends a piece by Izzy Wight for Fashion Journal on the ‘Just A Girl’ phenomenon whilst Maggie devoured Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins.
