Reality TV's Response to Controversy Left a Devastating Impression on Pop Culture Following the news of Nicole Curtis' HGTV show, Rehab Addict, getting cancelled, it's finally time to address how reality TV let awful things slide.

Maybe we do not take scandals seriously because the reality TV shows we used to watch didn't either.

How The Super Bowl Stage Has Rebranded into a Protest and Celebration of Culture Bad Bunny took the stage last night following his Album of the Year Grammy win in the first-ever primarily Spanish Super Bowl halftime show.

Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance was insane! I wrote about it for my Substack newsletter, Poplitical Theory, about how the Super Bowl stage has rebranded into a protest and celebration of culture. If you haven’t subscribed already, you already know what to do.

The Short Film That Represents All Women Everywhere KATSEYE's Manon Bannerman in 'Not Bad' is all of us in any scenario.

The beauty about movies and short films is it can be interpeeted in many ways. This is how I interpreted the short movie 'Not Bad,' starring KATSEYE's Manon, in today's edition of Poplitical Theory.

That's why I wrote about it in today's edition of Poplitical Theory on #Substack.

The Brilliant Killer A tape and a murder suspect she did not see coming…

It’s been five years since The Murder of Margot Tucker. Five years without justice. Five years without arrests. Five years of grief. Five years of angst.

But what if the truth was right at the bottom from the very start?

The Media and Fans Are Villainizing Love Island USA's Olandria Carthen, But The True Villain is The One Who Has Let The Racism Foster For Months The Love Island USA Season 7 curse continues, and it is the usual suspect.

Last night, I wrote about the Huda Mustafa and Olandria Carthen racism row for The T Word. Publications have villainised Carthen for being upset about being called a racist slur, and Mustafa just laughing about it. Carthen is the victim, not Mustafa. thetwordnewsletter.substack.com/p/olandria-c...

Last night, I came up with another amazing story idea, and I want to write it straight away despite the WIP I’m working on right now 🫠

Man, I love writing.
