The Week That Was: Tony’s, TikToks & Turtlenecks

This week, Kate & Tansy are layered up and fired up—literally
and emotionally. From dodging scarf static to dodging the
collapse of global democracy, the girls serve their usual mix of
camp theatre critique, cultural chaos, and deep soul-searching.


First stop: The Tony Awards, where Tansy breaks
down the queer excellence, chaotic performances, and why
non-binary icon Cole Escola won hearts (and a Tony). We’re
talking Bernadette Peters cosplay, drag as dramaturgy, and the
very necessary death of stunt casting. Audra was robbed, but
theatre weirdos reign supreme.


Then we shift hard -binto America’s unfolding
nightmare. ICE raids. Peaceful protestors being
attacked. Journalists shot at. The girls discuss censorship,
shadowbans, and how TikTok is becoming a tool of state control.
They grapple with what it means to stay joyful in the face of
despair and how to balance pleasure with protest.


Back on home turf, Tansy’s moving in with her partner (into a
house with doors!!), Kate’s sourcing kitchen islands like a
Facebook Marketplace witch, and both are dodging spiritual
breakdowns via Mormon reality TV. Yes, we deep dive into
MomTok’s Mormon Wives, ketamine therapy,
champagne gate, and the wild gender politics of being a
breadwinning influencer in Utah.


It’s equal parts Bernadette Peters and dystopia - welcome
to your weekly cultural scream therapy.
