Don’t you even know what a brat summer is? Well, It can go that way, like, quite luxury, but it can also be so, like, trashy. Just, like, a pack of cigs, and, like, a Bic lighter, and, like, a strappy white top. With no bra. That’s, like, kind of all you need. And it is in full flow, big time. Jo and Adam take a deep dive into the world of brat, satire of brat, brat satire and the way brat satire is fuelling the campaign of Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris. They also discuss the frighteningly prescient 1979 novel Benefits, a feminist dystopian satire, before looking at responses to the riots taking place across the UK at the time of recording and the memes inspired by the 2024 Paris Olympics.
