Ep. 93: The Downton Abbey Afterparty
CW: Intimate Partner Violence
In this ep, the hosts dive into the Johnny Depp v. Amber Heard defamation case, a Downton Abbey afterparty, and the divine power of documentaries. Rachel is done with the PR trial taking up everyone's newsfeed, and Walls has stories from a star-filled evening in Manhattan. There's a little bit of lying this week to go complement the true stories featured in documentaries and memoirs.

-Good general rundown/summary of the whole situation (allegations, trial, backlash)
-Short video about the bot campaign online to discredit Heard and support Depp
-Evidence that at least some of the pro-Depp sentiment online is a result of a far-right-funded astroturfing campaign, where far-right websites are using trial-related misogyny as a way to bring more people into the alt-right online influence sphere
-An article describing the chilling effect the trial coverage is already having on victims of abuse
-Johnny Depp's erratic, unprofessional behavior and unaddressed addictions were already doing plenty of damage to his career before Amber Heard's allegations
-Check out Bomb Shelter and Mean Baby at bookshop.org or your local library
