About this listen
In this week's Hot Off The Press, we unpack the internet’s fixation on Lindy West’s new memoir and the intense backlash to her revelations about polyamory, marriage, and power dynamics, along with the viral fallout, including a shocking email. We also break down the abrupt cancellation of Taylor Frankie Paul’s Bachelorette season after a resurfaced video reignited concerns about reality TV vetting and accountability, and end on a lighter (but no less obsessive) note with Leighton Meester teasing a possible return of Blair Waldorf — and what a millennial reboot of Gossip Girl could actually look like.
