  • S12E17: Bridal Makeup Is A SCAM! Why The Wedding Industry Needs Regulating...

    In this episode of The MoChunks Show, for #ChitChatWithMo, we discuss some of the pricing of wedding services, including bridal makeup, videography, photography and more. For a while, I’ve held the opinion that the wedding industry needs regulating, especially within our communities as it can come across as exploitative sometimes.

    What are your thoughts on some of the pricing of services within the wedding industry? Worth the price or too much at times? Let me know in the comments!

  • S12E16: The Return Of The Housewife: It's Not The “Soft Life” You Think It Is!

    In this episode of The MoChunks Show, we have #ChitChatWithMo. I discuss the resurgence of the housewife, with women getting annoyed at feminism for pushing them out into the workforce when they’d rather be at home. There’s definitely a romanticising of some of the labour that has to be performed even when primarily attending to domestic tasks such as home making, child rearing and more. Enjoy this video essay!
