Hello! This week Izzy has a boatload of recommendations, including but not limited to: Why Eyes Wide Shut is the best Christmas movie; Oscar Pistorius and crazy prison wives; and why Netflix's Jack The Ripper documentary is actually a feminist text. Then it's onto the viral ELLE profile on Martin Shkreli's chaotic girlfriend, Hilaria Baldwin's embarrassing double life as a fake Spaniard, and how Shia Labeouf's DV allegations are hindering Vanessa Kirby's Oscars chances (cue: eternal conversations about art vs. the artist). Then it's onto The Cut's investigation about how JK Rowling descended from woke Twitter queen to Head TERF. As always, rate, review, and subscribe, and we'll see you Saturday.

Recommendations: Eyes Wide Shut (1999) The Trials of Oscar Pistorius (2020) The Ripper (2020) The Executioner's Song by Norman Mailer The Journalist And The Pharma Bro by Stephanie Clifford for ELLE https://www.elle.com/life-love/a35021224/martin-shkreli-christie-smythe-pharma-bro-journalist/ Who Did JK Rowling Become? by Molly Fischer in The Cut https://www.thecut.com/article/who-did-j-k-rowling-become.html Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.
