If your feed is all GLP-1s, "you're not eating enough protein," and skinny-tok content, this one's for you.

Michael Baggs and I sat down with the brilliant Bekah Ellis (@fullbodiedbekah) to talk about her IG/TikTok persona and just how hard it is to be a woman on the internet right now.

Agnes from Neptune Prize winning Glasgow doomgaze legends Cwfen joins Malena and Mike to discuss if any creative careers can exist in 2026 without social media becoming the centre of their universes.

We cover everything from the positive power of community, to the problematic nature of needing to personify your art with your own face, creator burnout, the anxiety that comes from knowing your number of new listeners directly correlates to how much content you're publishing, and if the reality of streaming revenue means in 2026 musicians are forced to stop thinking of themselves primarily as composers and performers, and instead as t-shirt brands.

One of our favourites to film, a wonderful half an hour 💜

This week Malena and Mike are joined by Dr Carolina Are, LSE Fellow, digital criminologist, and Sexual Freedom Awards winning Activist of the Year, and pole dancing academic, to talk about her latest paper: The Shadowban Cycle: an autoethnography of pole dancing, nudity and censorship on Instagram.
