#165: Go Down South, Lil Nas X, Big Boat

What a wild week. A South Australian (alleged) tourism ad has everyone talking. With their mouths.

Lil Nas X is feeding and fighting the conservatives with his excellent new video, and serving satanic sass on his social media.

And Parliament is still doing it’s thing. When will “it’s thing” change?

Thankfully we have big boat to save us, and remind us of the simplicity of having one thing the world can get behind (and push).

And while Myf is streaming salacious art fraud tales on Netflix, Zan is out and about feeling the energy of human performance and community.
