Prue and Gen review Selena Gomez' documentary 'My Mind & Me' (did it depress us more than it inspired us?) and how hustle culture affects our own mental health. Tune in for some of our best unsolicited cultural commentary and personal reflections.

First we review 'My Mind & Me' and discuss how it's a portrait of modern American poverty, subverts the classic rags to riches storyline and whether or not it was problematic that Selena was so enamoured by Kenya (...a brief argument ensues). As Selena exposes the importance of mental health, we then dive into a chat about toxic hustle culture; from our experiences studying too much, to the celebrity and social media culture of entrepreneurship and side hustles, to how companies have all the wrong incentives when it comes to you taking care of yourself and their ability to profit off your labour.
