This week Bridie talks about a book she couldn't put down even with one of her kids throwing up in the bed. Together they discuss Anne Helen Petersen's 'Culture Study' newsletter edition about why people are obsessed with Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's new beginning, and how to possibly navigate the whiplash we're all experiencing on social media right now. They finish with a chat about whether or not university is 'worth it' anymore.  Article/Books referenced in this episode: https://annehelen.substack.com/p/you-only-like-the-beginning-of-things  https://yourbookstore.io/p/the-work?barcode=9781761069390&search_key=bri+lee https://www.sydneytheatre.com.au/whats-on/productions/2023/oil  https://www.afr.com/work-and-careers/education/have-young-australians-lost-faith-in-the-value-of-uni-20231101-p5eglz  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15771916/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
