After Work Drinks
Moby, Natalie Portman and 'Nice Guy' Misogyny
•
Izzy’s moved to London and has already figured out where David Beckham, Jude Law and Hugh Grant live and she has a bunch of great recs after a horrific 30-hour flight (which, despite two premonitions from Anton, didn't crash). This week saw another horrific death, as Melbourne woman Courtney Herron was murdered in a park - a story we've heard all too many times before. Are we right to discuss the mental health of her alleged killer? Plus, Moby, Natalie Portman and nice guy misogyny - how are 'woke guys' still getting sex and power dynamic so wrong?
