The Cornell 7, Nicki Minaj's Fox Interview, and Who's Hiding What in Their Camera Roll

The Cornell 7, Nicki Minaj's Fox Interview, and Who's Hiding What in Their Camera Roll29 sept.55 min

** This episode includes discussion of SA .

Joy Taylor, Hayley and Spex take on a heavy week of news. First up is the Cornell 7 lawsuit. A former student is suing the university, a fraternity and seven current or former members over an alleged 2024 assault. That leads into a deeper conversation about victim blaming, institutional failure, the 57 men in the group chat who did nothing, and what parents of boys need to be teaching at home. Joy looks back on the buddy-system rules she and her friends lived by in college 20+ years ago, and why nothing has changed.

Then the crew reacts to Nicki Minaj's Fox interview with Lara Trump and her comments on Democrats and pop culture. That turns into a real-talk plea ahead of the midterms: register, research your ballot, ask questions, and stop taking political cues from celebrities.

Plus, this week's Would You Rather: expose your search history or your camera roll? It goes exactly where you think it goes.
