Hi pals, 

In this ep of Culture Club, we dive into some bite-sized pop culture bits including, Harry Styles’ new hair, Suki Waterhouse’s latest paparazzi pics and Hugh Jackman’s $100 million (!!) dollar NDA with his ex-wife Deborra-Lee Furness. 

Next, the trailer for the new Mean Girls movie that’s based on a musical, that’s based on a movie (phew) is out. We discuss our thoughts on the cast, the marketing and why we’d watch it. 

In other news, a Bloomberg article by Jessica Karl titled TikTok Is Turning the Publishing World Into Fast Fashion has been making the rounds. We discuss the opinion piece and our own thoughts on BookTok’s publishing machine. Thank you Jessica for reading out an excerpt of your own words. 

Maggie also references this piece from The Guardian. 

On theme, we have two book recommendations for you! Maggie loved Dolly Alderton’s Good Material while Jas shares a sci-fi novella, titled To Be Taught If Fortunate by Becky Chambers. 

Take care of yourselves <3 Jas and Mags
