Black Mirror, Blue Origin & Too Hot To Work

Black Mirror, Blue Origin & Too Hot To Work

Happy Friday, happy Good Friday, happy Easter & happy Everything Is Content Day!


This week on the podcast we’re talking about Black Mirror season 7, The celestial sisters who went to space, & ask whether or not you can be too hot to work.


Charlie Brooker’s dystopian tech anthology Black Mirror is back for its seven series, and lots of the reviews have been really positive saying it’s one of the most human series yet, and a return to its best form i.e. its first season.


This one is star-studded, with Chris O’Dowd, Tracey Ellis Ross, Issa ray, Emma Corrin, Rashida Jones and Paul Giamatti to truly only name a few.


Next up, in what sounds like an episode of Black Mirror but isn't... Katy Perry went to space… for eleven minutes. She was joined by Bezos's fiancée Lauren Sánchez and CBS presenter Gayle King, who was reported to have said a highlight of the flight was hearing Perry sing Louis Armstrong's 'What a Wonderful World'. We discuss.


And finally, we are talking about t-shirts. Okay, not quite. We’re talking about a debate which was sparked on X, in part, by pictures of two t-shirts.


Here’s what happened- on April 8th the writer Ashley Reese tweeted this as part of a wider conversation about women and work. She wrote:

“1) women have always worked 2) it's incredible that women are able to be financially independent in ways that were not as common just a few generations ago and I'm not charmed by jokes—especially from other women—about how gainful employment is the worst thing to happen to women.”


Is it that deep? Or is it just some silly t-shirts? Listen to find out!
