Thoughts on cosmetic surgery/filler culture- Is it something that helps ppl gain confidence and acts as a form of self expression/gender affirming care?

Burning man and Timmy Kylie and more pop culture discourse puhleassssssss🙏🏼🧎🏼‍♀️muah y’all r the best

Cait

can you guys talk about transracialism? (or RCTA as it's referred to on tik tok I think lol) My friend (who's mixed, I think is part of the reason he thinks this way) doesn't believe there is a difference between being transgender and transracial. He says in the same way that gender is a construct, race is as well, and that defining being a man or woman is just as complicated as defining a race. I personally don't really agree with the idea but it's become somewhat of a hot topic in my friend group now lmao. I'd love to hear y'all's (is this the plural version??) takes <3

Chiara Bosco

big brother/survivor and reality tv in general as we enter the surveillance state - what it says about us a people that we watch people get put in a fishbowl

Tilly VW

Burning Maaaan

Carolyn

Parasociality and art/artist separation (or lack thereof) and please please read Monsters: A Fan’s Dilemma by Claire Dederer

Keenan Griebel

1. for julia - i know i shouldn’t just get my masters “because i’m bored” or “don’t know what i’m doing post grad,” so how do i decide if it’s worth it to get a masters? 2. for eliza/both of you - you answered my advice column about LA 🤭 jf was SO beautiful and needed, i deeply appreciate it and thank you for it! got any other LA food/place/activity recommendations?

Summer

Am I the asshole / reddit stories episodes are fun. Have y'all done an episode on sex work? Did lots of papers on that for college, decriminalization vs legalization, empowerment vs oppression, how your social identities play into how you are treated or even yhe work you csn do, also the nuances added now from only fans and other online sex work that the research is only just catching up on. The impact FOSTA/SESTA regulations have had on the safety of it all and how that has changed over time. Julia can share more of obscure memes. Montessori method of education is also interesting, I remember Eliza went to a Montessori school right? And I work at one now and it is interesting and can be effective but it also so chaotic, and my school is a public school so it's hard to be free with the method while also confirming to state standards for receiving public funding. Could do another history moment, maybe favorite Apocalypse-like events in history? Oooor y'all can talk about your fav theories for how the world is gonna end. Like, climate change. But what if ai? What ig alien? Who knows. Fav conspiracies? Fav cults? Fav YouTube channels? Whateva ur minds are great so honestly everything you put out is a vibe.

Summer

Omg they talk so much shit about Reagan but a roast of him would be !!!!

Eli Cole

tumblr. your personal experience w it, the cultural impact,etc.

Shawn Hogan

would love a semi-topical burning man, sorority rush, etc. would probably require of u to watch some tiktoks, but it would be worth it i promise semi alternatively, the downfall of music festivals i.e. burning man, fyre fest, e zoo chaos this past weekend.

Addie Davis

I’d love an episode that is fun, lighthearted and funny! I love serious episodes, but I think the binchies need some positive and uplifting context right now from our FAV girlies🥹!!!!

rae

Zach Greenwald

how to form emotional attachments while also being cognizant that everything is temporary

Summer

Like, yeah race is a construct in the way we think of it, and we can make certain comparisons between race and gender, but that doesn't mean it is in the category of being transitional in the same way.

Eurydice

Eliza I don’t think you ever explained the origins of the deer spine that used to be in your car. Would love to hear about it if you’re willing to share!!

Eurydice

Drunk story time always slays, also

Summer

It fr is. Y'all have to renegociate your place in the family and y'all either grow together or apart. My relationship with my parents got worse then way better after college. Once I got my own car and house, if they are being disrespectful I can literally just leave and they don't hold any financial or other power over me.

Dee Luxemos

-what are some of the biggest lessons you've had to unlearn -what is American culture, what does it mean to be an American -virture signaling -survelliance capitalism - asepcts of academic psychology you reject - what are things going on in the world or American politics that make you hopeful/hopeless - storytelling through history and present day. How do you integrate storytelling in your life - how had your view on your self changed since being an object for parasocial relationships - memes and cultural attitudes. Memes as outsider art? - thoughts on the supreme court, as concept/institution -pets for emotional healing -rachel Aviv's book strangers to ourselves (I think Julia said she read that right?) -the weird obsession of millennial vs gen z - pedophilia - Is BPD the new lady hysteria - this horrible convergence of rainbow washing but also rights being walked back - wtf is happening to X (formally Twitter) - conspiracy theories that you believe

Shannon O'Brien

Fr though, I've been on a journey of discovering I'm bi and exploring with a woman, and we've had to unpack internalized biphobia like thinking there has to be a "man" and a "woman" in each relationship, and I'd love to hear more about each of your discovery journeys etc

Layton Birchell

THINK PLANET EARTH II: CITIES - The relationship between humanity and nature An episode devoted more towards humanity and our historic/evolving relationship with nature. I think this topic has so so so many different facets that you Binch queens could really dig into. You could discuss sustainable practices on a global, nationwide and personal scale, in particular the integration of nature into urban spaces and it's importance. A good read for this topic is "Nature's Best Hope". It doesn't have enough of a focus on environmental justice, but it does offer a practical and hopeful solution in the conversion of private and public spaces into ecologically viable land that supports biodiversity. It's also a pretty easy read. I think the solutions in this book working in concert with the more philosophical and ethnobotanical paradigm of "Braiding Sweetgrass" is a good combo in terms of prep for the episode.

elizabethonline

really wanna hear y’all talk about men who are OBSESSED with bodybuilding- is it weird and concerning or am I just being a hater?

Emily

a history episode where you both dive into radical feminist movements/figures. ie perhaps the controversial Valerie Solanas (SCUM manifesto)

kirby rodik

i have a theory that organisms (plants, animals, fungi) in nature have a sort of shared consciousness that we’ve lost touch with because of western culture, consumerism, etc. indigenous cultures have been talking about things like this for centuries. idk, i’ve always heard people say animals aren’t conscious therefore “aren’t as intelligent” but i’ve yet to see actual proof of that. so until someone provides me with the evidence, i will continue believing ecosystems are smarter than us in a way we can’t understand. like.. are u really telling me animals are dumb just because they didn’t create a complex, isolated, borderline psychotic society like us? i’d love to hear your thoughts on this:) maybe even your thoughts on the definition of consciousness? this is a response while i am high btw. bet you could probably tell lol

delaney

you guys should do some more reddit stories 🙏🙏 i know it’s been done before but they always make me cackle and i’m in desperate need of some cackling

Kaley Alness

I'd love an updated conversation about body modification (in a cosmetic way not a tattoo/piercing way)!! I recently got botox for the first time (for free 🤑🤑🤑🤑) (i work with estheticians) and I'm more fascinated by the varied discourse around it than ever before

Isa Martinez-Aleman

Maya

Alyssa ♡

Isø

These have been discussed but I cræve møre on the horrors of the modern online world, you do it so well! Like how tumblr shaped everything, how Twitter and Tiktok eroded individual thought and personality, the hysteria of fæcebook groups, how to convince others to disengage without being a weird outsider dickhead lol Also more astrology chat (like how to exist on earth as a heavily air girl like can I float away and how)

Sophia

I moved to the US at a young age and was so shocked by the difference between French and US kids. I’d love an episode about your experience with american culture and growing up there

patty

love the long episodes

Katie

Reality tv- bachelor, love is blind

abigail parrish

the way i have soooo many things i want y’all to talk about and suddenly, much like when someone asks me my favorite song, my brain is empty.

Carrina Macaluso

an episode talking about sororities, frats, and college greek life would be really interesting

Rachel

Lining up events and routines in your life with your menstrual/mood cycle

Charlie Wright

Need u to talk about the blue people of kentucky

Isø

Also would love a roundup of writers/musicians/artists who changed your perception and life in some way - the circumstances they found you in, what shifted for you etc

Isø

Talk about meeeee

Kayl Ward

The profound influence you guys have on my shopping habits despite rarely being sponsored

Isø

Like I’m so afraid of being perceived and known by strangers online - like a lot of people I feel like I choose to present differently depending on who I’m with (Gemini) so the thought of having one concrete open online self is too much! I used to have a following on Tumblr which felt very safe and secret, the thought of employers, extended family, random neighbours seeing the real vulnerable inside of my soul is horrifying! I was born ‘94 so I think people slightly younger got through this with finstas or whatever, or just not thinking/caring about everyone seeing and judging you… but like what’s an olde gal to do? I have irl community but often still feel isolated and alone, I miss the feeling of having online friends that I can spill my soul to, so find myself doing shit like this in patreon comments… I think I resent people who post so freely as it could never be me, so therefore we must stop them all lol

Liz Callahan

Convergent evolution crab theory!! Did you know like 7 times in evolutionary history species have evolved back into a crab? Crap supremacy 😎

Cayley Wright

how screen time is affecting small children and how they’re socialized (there’s a bunch of studies about this already but it is essentially making them all act absolutely batshit insane)

✨

This is so funny, I hope they do this at some point

Court Knee

I feel like Jordan Peterson’s Gotham villain era is worth a quick feature lol

✨

No it's disordered eating/ behavior for real. I'm not entirely sure what happened or when or where, but there is something specific going on with mens relationship to their bodies in the past like 10 years. I feel like I'm always trying to bring my boyfriend back from the edge of an ED, like he HATES himself, it's crazy. And he's not even a crazy gym bro, he's a normal boy. Idk if it's just cause they don't have the language to talk about it that it gets weird for them so fast ??

Emily

An episode on raves would be sooo good!! About the history and the people who go to them

Carolin

The russian revolution -boyfriend suggested

Clare Wangard

you should read finding the mother tree by suzanne simard (or listen to a podcast episode from On Being where she’s a guest), she pretty much explains how ecosystems are in constant communication with each other and like the language of trees using nitrogen, it’s super interesting and basically completely supports your theory

Susie McKeon

An episode on unions!! Why they are hated in conservative spaces & the history, and why more companies are unionizing now

Kirsten Drehobl

If you have a lot of reading to do, use Natural Readers to have PDFs converted to audio. Go on a walk, clean your house, whatever, while listening to your source material. I was not doing any of my reading until I started doing this and it is the reason I graduated my master’s program!

Do one on the recent literature published saying that there’s actually little evidence that depression is caused by low serotonin and the pushing of SSRIs by the pharmaceutical industry! I love my ssris but it’s interesting to look into the pros and cons since so many people are on them now

Quit like a women by holly whitaker

MK

Also weird when your online self isn’t necessarily created by you 😖 I don’t use Instagram or Facebook often but I keep my account and I’ve been having this experience where I’m realizing all the photos of myself online are posted by other people. And they aren’t really the photos I would choose to represent myself?? But I also don’t want to start using social media myself again bc I like the space I have from it?? Idk

Alan

TUMBLR DISCOURSES 🌀i know you guys have talked abt tumblr a bit before but truly Her Impact on culture is so farreaching (queer culture, leftist politics, offbeat humor). And now we’re seeing a lot of those discourses be recreated on TikTok really poorly. Much to think abt

bella

timothee and kylie

Melon

How to start a commune?

Harleigh

I think the episode called the weight of it all is the perfect thing to listen to when you're going through the horrors

Sarah Levy-Pipitone

if you had to choose between having dicks for fingers or balls for toes which would you choose?

Katie

Pyramid schemes

Riley Petersen

Please talk about your poetry/songwriting process

Delany Bell

No because pleaaaseee I would love to hear them talk about cursed tumblr controversies like sonic for real justice and that one user who had like a child slave and offered therapy advice? The handful of scams like all or nothing DASHCON. Truly full of internet cultural keystones

ani

omg you’ve actually unearthed Memories for me. also the girlie who mailed her severed toe to another tumblr user so she could make jewelry out of it. also NEEEEEED eliza to know about the whole rabies pride community moment (strange eaons on youtube is literally a tumblr historian and has a great vid on this)

Maddy Kempke

I’m remembering the episode you guys did about boy moms. Did you ever end up recording an episode about girl dads?

Olivia Levins

would love to hear yall talk about the changing face of sex work with influencers like stella barey showing a very glamorous side of being in the sex industry without acknowledging the realities of sex work for many......also the porn industry in general and just kind of this difficult area of supporting ppl's choice to do what they want with their bodies but also how many do *not* have the privilege of choice when it comes to sex work and its strong roots in patriarchy.... or on a lighter note quirky animal behaviors like bees throwing ass to show each other where food is. <3

Julia

It would be interesting to hear about how when fields in stem become women dominated they become “soft sciences” when before they were considered a hard science

KE

PLEASE do a y2k ep!!!!

Allyn (uh-lyn)

Yesss was also just thinking the idea that sex work is empowering meanwhile the phrase sex work is work means ... well it's work and like all work can also be exploitive and its workers should be protected

Nina Caradonna

Stina Olsson

Scamanda and Coco Berthmann!

Stina Olsson

Also have y’all seen that girl on tiktok who’s a covert narcissist (she’s diagnosed and open about it)?

Annika Lawson

AI, intentional communities, or like how girl roommate relationships often sour. I feel like everyone I know has a bad roommate story

Kendra Yarke

Just watched “Orgasm Inc.” on Netflix and I’m dying to know your thoughts! It’s a sex cult hiding in plain sight, disguised as a startup!!! Truly one of the wildest docs I’ve seen in a while.

Emily West

Just watched “The Wolf House” and I saw on Letterboxd Eliza also saw it. Would love a deep dive episode on the film and Paul Schafer’s La Colonia

Emma Martinez

the correlation between hitting women in bed and violence against women… have y’all done this?

Kate Gulewich

could you talk more about julia’s psychology knowledge? what is she specializing in? what’s her favorite topic to learn about? did her teachers make a difference to learning about those things?

Christia

I second this! I’m going to grad school for counseling so I’m really curious to know what her theory is!

Layton Birchell

An episode just for sharing grief, for being there for each other through the sorrows of this world simply by hearing each other's stories. An opportunity to share our hardships with the rest of the Binchtopia community through mailbox moments or a sort of grief-line

Erin Clancy

Julia can you talk about your path towards deciding to become a therapist? I want to apply to counseling masters programs but I scared

Jessica

Missouri / red states / Abortion plz plz

Jessica

Yeah it sadly is true. There’s also an NYT article about how as fields become female dominated, the pay drops.

Jessica

I know that my comment is only tangential but I’m st*ned and forgot to include that soft sciences used to be hard sciences when they were male-dominated. Now that surgery and higher edu in general is trending female, there’s a concern we’re all gonna get screwed financially and via a demotion (a la hard to soft sciences) just for being someone who pursued higher education

Jessica

Gymnastics would be soooo fun y’all don’t understand how DRAMATIC the recent and “ancient” history is. A rich text indeed

Jenna Holmes

fr how do you have a discussion with your sensitive body conscious friend about them over editing and extreme photoshop their Insta pics?!!! Please help!!! So much love but so much fear!!!

Hollie Smith-Nelson

Would love to hear your educated minds on whether you think the continued public fascination with 9/11 stories in the run up to the annual anniversary, prevents American people from healing from a traumatic event, which in turn encourages a constant renewed vitriol and hate towards other races? As in every year for at least the month prior it’s 9/11 films showing on tv, it’s documentaries , it’s the sound bites of loved ones phone conversations saying goodbye. Whilst I agree we should always remember the victims and treat their memory with respect and dignity, in what was a tragic event, I’m from England and the 7/7 bombings are not on this sort of annual news cycle or even Grenfell. It’s fascinating, and whilst the 7/7 bombings were no where near the scale of 9/11, England seems to place Americas heartache on our front screens year in year out. Strikes me as sort of odd in terms of a grieving process, like at what point do we stop the intensive outpouring of grief? How does this actually help the survivors or the surviving family members? Also why is it 9/11 that holds the focus like this and not other more recent tragic tragic events?

Kalyxa Roman

I would love to hear your thoughts on the Israel Palestine conflict, especially curious to hear your thoughts Julia and potentially Gav’s as well???

Suzanne Sabin

Pls talk about autism and neurodivergence in women/AFAB folks! Women are so underdiagnosed and the amount of people discovering their neurodivergence as an adult is incredible to me

Jasmine Moss

I saw a TikTok about a man saying that his girlfriend can't turn him on after six months of being together and men were all agreeing. I think it would be interesting to look into the evolution of men and their standards for women's beauty, becoming higher and higher, and what exactly contributed to do with that. like how they call a woman mid that caveman would've went crazy over.

Dianna Cohen

im from the ny area and my parents who both relatively nearby and were able to see the towers during the attakcs + lost people they know both hate the never forget thing for the reason u mentioned. like yes honor their memories but rehashing the trauma yearly doesnt help anyway

Dianna Cohen

and its also "never forget" is more of a political/patriotic thing at this point than anything to do with the event itsslf

bunnny

Does anyone know which episode it is where the girls talk about the try guys situation and eliza brings up how max makes up jobs on the spot at parties? ive been wanting to relisten but i have no idea which one it is. thanksies
