What’s Tana Mongeau of Notorious ‘Tanacon’ up to? What has pop-culture critics up in a tizzy? Will BuzzFeed’s CEO ever allow his writers to unionize? Why is the Amazon-owned bluetooth-enabled doorbell company selling their user’s security camera footage? Who at Walmart decided to incorporate themselves into branded television content? Why does Gwyneth Paltrow continue to lie? All that and more on this week’s pop culture roundup, plus a very special announcement from Joan! 

Eating For Free is a bi-weekly gossip podcast reporting from the edge of the internet! We're a new wave of celebrity reporters at a time when pop culture is increasingly chaotic and media lacks the ability or moral direction to make sense of this capitalist nightmare!
