Camp vs Cringe

Welcome to the podcast where we turn our weekly rage into
content. Each episode, we deep-dive into whatever is currently
grinding our gears — from everyday annoyances to the kind of
stuff that makes you yell at clouds. In this episode, we are
dragging the way cringe gets tossed around like confetti at
anything people don’t like. We pull apart what cringe actually
means, what camp is, and how the terms are mixed up and
weaponized. We also delve into how having more access to
subculture spaces online has made it more acceptable for the
internet to slap the cringe label on it. We round it out by
looking at how that fear of being called cringe is clipping the
wings of artists, creators and a generation that could be making
stranger, braver work.
