“Initially I thought this podcast would be interesting because I was familiar with their writing from ITG but instead itβs been a big dud. They donβt have the voices for podcasting (too much upspeak, vocal fry, and nasality) , most of the interviews have been incredibly boring, and the podcast is overproduced.
Not to mention, so much performative white guilt.. The podcast came on last summer during the height of the BLM protests and the hosts will often have noname black guests simply because theyβre black instead of having someone on like Pat McGrath. Itβs so patronizing and this white guilt helps no one. Itβs especially insincere given the things Annie has said about race and being white in the past.
I know this podcast has gotten some good press but thatβs because the hosts both have deep connections in the beauty and media industries. It doesnβt mean the podcast is good itβs just another manifestation of what privilege will get you.”
