Episode description

Alise, Kaitlin, and Amanda do a biannual survey of the state of cancel culture, analyzing three recent events that highlight increased polarization that only one side seems to be complaining about. They look back at “Looney Tunes’” Pepe Le Pew amid news the sexually aggressive skunk will not be included in the “Space Jam” sequel. They analyze a controversial columnist’s warnings that nice white people are being silenced, and compare accusations of “cancel culture” to who has actually suffered as a result of a changing internet: good journalists laid off from their jobs.
