The Week That Was: Vogue Covers, Corporate Chaos & Celebrity Cluelessness


Listen Later

Welcome back to The Week That Was with Kate and Tansy - your weekly dose of brutal honesty, cultural dissection, and the occasional galaxy-themed fashion meltdown.

This week we’re unpacking:

  • Timothée Chalamet’s confusing American Vogue cover (galactic background? tight embroidered jeans? Is he the new Doctor Who?)

  • Mariah Carey’s ill-timed boycott joke in her Sephora Christmas ad – and why rich celebrities seem completely detached from reality.

  • Kristin Chenoweth’s problematic tribute post, Charlie Kirk’s death, and the missing conversation around gun violence in America.

  • A deep dive into the cultural echo chambers, celebrity performativity, and the growing divide between influencers and actual influence.

  • Plus: Oasis merch hysteria, Nicole Kidman’s horror comeback, Chappell Roan’s Cyndi Lauper moment, and Glenn Powell’s disappointing season finale.

From chaotic fashion editorials to capitalism's final boss (yes, we’re talking about those bear-shaped Starbucks cups), The Week That Was is a wild ride through the week's most unhinged moments.

You’ll learn:

  • Why marketing fails when it lacks diverse thinkers.

  • How celebrities miss the mark with political commentary.

  • The weirdly emotional joy of Oasis t-shirts post-concert.

💅 As always, it's smart, savage, and slightly unhinged.
