The Club Chalamet Deep Dive

The Club Chalamet Deep Dive

It's been a bumper week for the Timothee Chalamet stans - Marty Supreme is getting hit reviews, his hair is starting to grow back and the very controversial key holder of the kingdom has done her first ever media feature. That's right, Club Chalamet just got profiled by the Wall Street Journal.


This week, hosts Ione and Gina get to grips with the reaction surrounding the feature, Club Chalamet's fraught political and internet history, and what her disproportionate impact tells us about fandom and fan culture today.
