Episode notes
Glam in Space Flight
- The Blue Origin all-female spaceflight lasted only 11 minutes with women dressed glamorously, including Katy Perry singing and releasing her tour set list in space.
- The event felt more like a publicity stunt than a scientific mission and included Kardashian interviews on Earth, making it feel surreal and less empowering.
Diss Track Politics
- The Liberal Party released a diss track about the cost of living, making politics more interesting and engaging for young voters.
- Despite some cringy moments, this approach grabs attention in a boring political campaign and focuses on issues voters care about like groceries and rent.
Gen Z Disconnect in Politics
- Gen Z and Millennials have different priorities; younger voters often don't care about costs like eggs and cheese, which diss tracks focus on.
- Political memes and diss tracks sometimes fail due to generational disconnect and over-filtered inauthenticity in messaging.
