Happy Tuesday! 

We start off today with some bite-sized pop culture news: Zoe Kravitz and Channing Tatum are an item, and New Zealand queen, Lorde has released a new album. We share our thoughts and read from Julian Rizzo-Smith's article, A 3-Min Explainer On Why People Are So Critical Of Lorde’s Solar Power Album for PedestrianTV. Grimes is also defending her billionaire boyfriend... again.

Speaking of boyfriends, according to iD magazine, offline normcore boyfriends are so hot right now. We reference this TikTok and article by Laura Pitcher. 

Next up, mega fast fashion retailer, Shein is dropping a new Project Runway-style show to give one fashion designer the prize of $100K and a chance to design a capsule collection. We ask why some big names in fashion decided to attach themselves to this project (and controversial company) and the fact that no matter how ‘philanthropic’ the motives, these fashion celebs supporting this faster-than-fast fashion will always be unethical.

We also discuss the big news of last week that OnlyFans is banning sexually explicit content from its site. What does this mean for one of the most popular subscription sites on the internet? A few articles we reference from include the BBC, Axios, Bloomberg, ABC and Zee Feed. 

Two TV recs coming in hot: Jas recommends Nine Perfect Strangers, a new drama series starring Nicole Kidman on Amazon Prime while Maggie recommends a more emotional series with Modern Love season two (also on Amazon Prime lol).

Katie Zhou created our fab new cover art and India Raine is our wonderful producer and composer of our jingle. Email us at [email protected], find us on Instagram @cultureclubpod, or on our personal accounts @jasmineeskye and @yemagz. 

That’s all for this week, folks. Thanks for joining us.
