The Thick

Gas prices are up, the press pool is out, and the Internet isn’t real! This week on The Thick we dive into our news and pop culture catch up, including Hasan Piker’s Clock It interview, KWN’s “joke” of a crush on KeKe Palmer, #EmmysSoWhite, and the untimely passing of Presley Gerber.

Then we detour into the Patrick Clancy and Rachel Danis interview on 60 Minutes and how one viral post became a textbook ...

Is gatekeeping always a bad thing? This is what we’re delving into this week on The Thick. The “mid-tier” events have disappeared which has led to influencers occupying spaces once reserved for established entertainers, insiders and celebrities. The VMAs, AMAs, Billboard Awards, Hip-Hop Awards, etc were stages that bridged the gap between the obscure and the A-list. Now it seems like if you have a phone and a foll...

Are you a cutie patootie or a baddie? This week on The Thick, we ask the important questions before diving into everything else going on the world.

In the news, we break down the House condemning socialism and the Lindsay Clancy trial ending in a mistrial. Then it’s pop-culture catch-up: Beyoncé’s box, P!nk calling out Macklemore over his advocacy, + more!

For our main topic, we talk through Keith Lee thanking God for pro...

Welcome back Thickums! This week is all about people overly committed to the lie. We discuss Angel Murdock who posed as a Duke University PA student and Daejon Love, who took the internet by storm with his NFL-player persona. 

We skipped our usual news segment this week and kept the convo light with pop culture including Doja Cat’s opening up, the D4vid trial, and our random catch ups and Tabria’s catfish story, lol...

This week is all about survival tactics—how to prepare for inclement weather and extended power outages. We go over basic survival essentials everyone should have on hand to make it through tough times. Stay ready so you don’t have to get ready! 

We also catch up on the week’s news and pop-culture chaos: the beef shortage, the trade-war with Canada, Callaway’s distasteful G\golf ad, and Enes Kanter&rsquo...

It’s a Thick Chat week, which means no main topic—we’re letting the conversation go wherever it wants to.

We’re catching up on everything that’s been happening from Luigi Mangione pleading guilty to Orlando Brown vs. Ray J in the ring.

We go off on a few tangents and also talk OxyShred, college freshmen spending $20K decorating their dorm rooms, our Halloween plans, and whatever else crosses our minds al...

This week, we’re unpacking the TikTok discourse that somehow got even messier than last week! We unpack the conversation around Drew Afualo and ER Fightmaster’s comments on cis and trans experiences of womanhood, and ask who gets to define what a “beautiful” experience of being a woman actually looks like. Then, Jools Lebron’s GoFundMe sparks another debate: when you have millions of followers, is it f...

Thickums! We’re going full meta on influencer culture. Did Nara Smith push trad wide content? Is hating influencers a covert way of saying you hate women? Can influencers be oppressed? Should we be going on brand trips with OpenAI? All this along with your news and pop culture catch up this week on The Thick!

Stay tuned to all the news and mess this week on The Thick!

Hey Thickums! This week we're catching you up on the latest news and pop culture and then getting into it. For our main convo, we dive into the viral voicemail that's sparked heated discourse online—a man asking a woman for sex on their second date. Where's the line between consent and coercion? Grab your headphones because this one's a lot to unpack.

This week The Thick is entering the villa of Love Island. Tabria has literally never seen an episode so Mindy breaks down the season thus far. In addition to villa politics we get into our usual US politics including the US-Iran MOU, the tragic passing of Kohen Wiley, and Peter Thiel’s secret society, along with a little dose of pop culture.
