It's time to talk JOBS! We're analysing the whole SCOMO-multi-ministries debacle of last week, as well as Kanye yelling at people for giving him shit for his Yeezy Gap collection (that looks a lot like trash bags on a warehouse floor). We talk through our own work experiences and they're about as varied and buck wild as you could hope. Like Matty spent a bunch of time as EA to the legend and Aussie directing icon Baz Luhrmann (And hung out with literal Hollywood royalty). Plus Brooke once worked at an ACTUAL garbage company so if you think your job is trash, remember there are real trash jobs out there!

In the Mix this Week: "The Farewell" Trailer, Vanity Fair's "Baby Yoda has Conquered the World", Vulture's "Best Bon Appetit Test Kitchen Videos Ranked", Time's Entertainer of the Year 2019 Lizzo, CNN Style's "Remember J.Lo's iconic dress from the 2000 Grammy's? She just wore an updated version"

Before Jessica Rapp moved to Beijing, her peers at the college newspaper warned her not to do it, saying she’d get blacklisted from working in journalism. Jessica went there anyway and (spoiler alert) was not blacklisted. Her byline has even appeared on such widely-read sites as CNN Style and Apartment Therapy. She shared her experiences with hosts Jenica Hallman and Sarah Scott, including why it’s worth it to try living and working abroad, and how working for her high school and college newspapers helped her find her footing. You can find Jessica on Instagram and Twitter, @jrapppp.
