Show Notes

They haven't done a pop culture episode in a while, but Maya and Luke have now returned to discuss a bit of the Internet controversy from the past few weeks. They begin with J.K. Rowling—once beloved, now digging her heels in with statements about the trans movement that nobody asked for. Then we move into the latest with Bachelor Nation, the franchise that is trying to make up for their overwhelmingly white history by bringing some diversity to the show, but only after petitions and a potentially losing ties to the only black lead in their 40+ season history.
