White Lotus Finale Hot Takes, Netflix's Adolescence, and Katy Perry In Space

Chelsea and Kristina dive into April’s hottest pop culture topics: Zendaya’s casting as Ronnie Spector, the “White Lotus” season 3 finale (yes, we talk about the dicks and the discourse), and takeaways from Netflix’s “Adolescence.” Plus, we dissect the great corporate feminism space race (looking at you, Katy Perry), shout out Cookie book recommendations, and nominate a few people for our dream anti-acknowledgments section.

Trigger warning: This episode briefly discusses sensitive topics, including domestic violence and sexual assault. Take care while listening, and find helpful resources here.
