About this listen

Phylicia McLeod joins as our FIRST co-host to talk through cancel culture and the practice of “being cancelled.” The episode covers the surprising historical origins of the concept, how cancelling shows up in the world today, and closes with some final thoughts on staying focused despite the fanfare surrounding this issue.


In addition, our co-hosts talk through Phylicia’s burgeoning Tarot reading skills and how there isn’t a single episode of Gray’s Anatomy in which everyone makes it out alive (as far as we know).

When recording, Cait mentions that Amy Cooper never faced criminal charges. Amy Cooper did face criminal charges, but those charges were eventually dismissed following her participation in 5 restorative justice therapy sessions.
