Culture Club.Princess Treatment, Love Island's Racism Double-Standard & Are Men Falling Behind?Hi pals!For the first time in ten years, the gender pay gap has flipped — at least for Gen Zs.

BreakpointIs New Paganism Actually Pagan? Recently in The Guardian, Emma Beddington covered a new twist on an old practice. According to the 2022 U.K. census, writes Beddington, “74,000 people declared they were pagan, an increase of 17,000 since 2011.” Meanwhile in the U.S., “a 2014 survey by the Pew Research Center estimated at least 0.3% of people... identified as pagan or Wiccan, which translates to about one million people.” And, though it’s not clear how anyone could know this, “That number is expected to triple by 2050.” Those numbers, while a small minority of the population, are significant when set against the overall decline of Christianity in the West.

Plus, how Charlie feels about being labelled as a 'dry texter', the Magic Mike review that no one asked for, and what cult watch Fleishman is in Trouble is stirring up - from the forty-something fuckability double standard to s...2023-03-0236 min

Punkadelic PodcastWinGuardian LeviosaShred Flintstone is back powering Punkadelic processes to production. Lots to get through this week, but it had been a hot minute since we did an episode without a unifying theme, so this is it. We’ve got a metric rake of articles from the Guardian to discuss this week, just what is going on at that paper? Are they the serious journos that just broke the Pegasus scandal or are they a bored housewives’ gossip mag where Emma Beddington is freely allowed to write infinitely boring diatribes about absolutely nothing of any importance to anyone anywhere ever?
