    Blake Lively's Power Suit: Part 2
    Jan 12 2025
    This week, Kate reviews the PR “smear campaign” half of the complex legal battle between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, delving into the concept of astroturfing, its relevance to Amber Heard and Meghan Markle, and details the “he said/she said” of the PR warfare detailed in the lawsuits. Then, Kate interviews attorney/former litigator Alex Mack for some legal insights/clarifications about the case to ensure she’s not entirely off base when reading through so much legal paperwork. Tune in to thoroughly examine text exchanges, press strategies, and discussions about the potential implications of sophisticated systems that manipulate online sentiment.

    We Listen and We Don’t Budge
    Dec 22 2024

    This week, Kate recaps some of 2024’s least notable micro-trends, goes through her embarrassing purchases from the Tiktok shop, admits some of her shameful habits in the spirit of the “we listen and we don’t judge” trend, contemplates the vibe of Taylor Swift being thrown a Taylor Swift-themed party, discusses her concern for when lyrics about someone being blue border on a HIPAA violation, then reviews Pinterest Predicts for 2025’s forecasted trends, but not before taking United Airlines and Nabisco to task in the name of spreadable cheese. Happiest Holidays to you and yours, we’ll be back and Beth-er than ever in 2025!
