#145: Giuliani & Borat, Friendship, Honeybee
It’s been a week for blokes with their hands down their pants! Rudy Giuliani has been caught in some compromising shots in the new Borat film, while US journalist Jeremy Toobin has dissolved the boundaries of working from home, in a Zoom meeting. Why are so many men coming to his defence? A beautiful long read on how we value our friendships has us reflecting on our own lifelong bonds, and NASA has landed on an asteroid this week. Cue: Aerosmith. Meanwhile Zan has just finished Craig Silvey’s new book Honeybee, while Myf is shock watching Norwegian drama series Exit on SBS.
