Send Me Your Potato Sugars (episode #30)

like mark ruffalo and jennifer garner in the seminal rom-com classic, we're 13 going on THIRTY. hi, we're back and catching up with the latest news & reviews from the last few weeks. we talk coachella 2019 and shia labeouf's questionable stomach tattoo (real? unreal? who knows!) followed by a spoiler-y discussion of jordan peele's 'Us' (19:49) and a whizz through other things we've enjoyed of late including the end of 'broad city' (38:17) 'fleabag' (40:00). in the second half of the episode (50:39) we're joined by academic, lecturer and researcher tori cann to discuss the devaluation of the feminine and the difficulties and issues surrounding pop culture consumption as a woman. we also consider pop culture and the patriarchy, why women's interests are so often dismissed and why gender divides between what girls like and what boys like still exist even in contemporary times. you can find tori over on twitter: www.twitter.com/_canndo after all that we of course conclude with our obsessions of the week (1:52:38). don't forget you can find us on twitter: www.twitter.com/thethirst our NEW AND IMPROVED blog, with recommended reading & links for this episode: thethirstpod.wordpress.com & you can email us your thoughts/feelings/feedback: thethirstpod@gmail.com
