This week on Spin Cycle, Claire and Gab are tackling four stories that have been everywhere — and pulling apart the spin underneath:
🔹 Chloe Pink vs the WAG Playbook — Why did the internet turn on a woman for sharing her own wedding photos? We unpack the misogyny, the WAG aesthetic, and why people still treat athletes' partners like accessories.
🔹Monash IVF Baby Mix-Up — A woman in Brisbane gave birth to a baby that wasn’t genetically hers. We break down the legal minefield, the emotional stakes, and the unsettling reality that this could happen to anyone.
🔹 Netflix’s Bad Influence — Inside the disturbing world of kidfluencers, shady content houses, and the parents who turned their children into brands. Spoiler: it's way darker than we expected.
🔹 TikTok’s Luxury Factory Exposé — Chinese manufacturers are calling out the world’s biggest brands by revealing how much luxury products really cost to make. It’s part trade war, part soft power move, and possibly the beginning of a quiet consumer revolt.
The internet’s loud — we’re here to make sense of it.
