This week we started with a simple 21st century fit-check. 

What's the most important part of an outfit? Matt thinks it's pants, Aiden says no one thinks it's pants.

Art show opening outfits, party outfits, work outfits. Party outfits that look like work outfits.

The infamous/iconic Tabi shoe with reference to two excellent articles which you should check out by 

Arabelle Sicardi and 

Sinziana Ravini

This week we're on about performance. 

We mainly focus on theatre but our conversation ranged from chaturbate to immersive performance, to Trump's way of tweeting. 

Dino Dimitriadis is a curator, producer, director and actor and the founder of Apocalypse Theatre Company.

This week we cancel artists with rich parents 🙅‍♀️💰😳

Nah, but really we get into matters surrounding privilege, the inner west, the question “what school did you go to?”

We try to tease out money and privilege with reference to a white pube article.
