  • Cancel Culture
    *CW  Sexual Assault, Pedophilia*
    In this episode, we are diving into the crazy world of cancel culture.
    Cancel Culture is a phrase we are seeing all over social media at the moment, and a hot topic of debate. In this episode, we try and understand what it really means to be cancelled, discuss why 'cancelling' is a toxic movement, and open up conversations about whether 'call out' culture is a better option in some cases.
