#3: Work, Whiteness & 'What in the D&I?'

Wed, 18 Aug 2021 18:13:14 GMT

We don't need to set the scene for this one too much do we? After a month-long hiatus, we are back by popular demand (!!!) and joined by our pal Dillon Aswin to discuss tackling the workplace as people of colour, how we often assimilate ourselves in order to climb the career ladder, and why you should RUN FOR THE HILLS if you get asked to clean airport loos at you summer job.

Nah seriously - leg it.

#2: Football, Fake Accounts and Fascism

Mon, 19 Jul 2021 11:30:03 GMT

We all saw the Euro final last Sunday - and sports fan or not, were witness to the disgraceful racial attacks that came after it. In this special football-themed episode (we thought we'd never see the day), we discuss what the aftermath tells us about our politicians, why labelling taking the knee 'gesture politics' is hypocritical, and whether ID verification for social media would do us good after all.

#1: Sun, Scandal and Suburbanisation

Tue, 06 Jul 2021 16:32:30 GMT

PODCAST #1 BABY. Meet the gang on our first outing as a trio, and hear about how London's Brick Lane is on the verge of being stolen away from its Bangladeshi community as we discuss gentrification. If that's not enough, we'll be discussing Matt Hancock's handsy affair (sorry) and what's so wrong with Love Island.

Disclaimer: this podcast was recorded just before Shannon Singh was booted out of the villa (which, honestly, didn't come as much of a surprise).
