About this episode
Join my Patreon for bonus content HEREIt's all over social media, the news, and for some reason the President's desk: it's the American Eagle X Sydney Sweeney "Genes" Gate. The ad campaign generated a wave of backlash due to undertones of eugenics and misogyny. But this isn't Sydney Sweeney's first brush with the threat of cancelation...This episode, Hailey (your host) tackles this monster of a controversy and explores why MAGA has taken Sweeney under their wing. She also talks Sweeney's previous controversies, from her selling her own bathwater, to a MAGA-themed birthday party.HAPPY SEASON 3 GASPERS!!!
