One of the best shows ever is back, and we’re digging into the visceral one-liners, the power, the politics, all of it, as Succession returns.

A well rounded read on the crossover of the wellness industry and conspiracy theorists has us thinking about what leads us (all of us) to different ways of thinking.

And as lockdown lifts in Melbourne, and greater freedoms are felt all over Australia, we’re reflecting back on how we’re feeling coming out of the cave. Spoiler alert: many things.

We’ve been spending plenty of time indoors still, reading an excellent Ruby Wax book on mindfulness during this hectic time, and watching the return of The Bachelorette.
