Blocking celebs, Bumble's fumble & the ill-fated portal

Our Beth is in Bermuda this week - but don’t worry, as far as we’re aware she hasn’t got lost in the triangle - so join Ruchira and Oenone for this week’s episode of Everything Is Content! We will be unpacking digital activism, as a movement to block celebrities gains momentum. We’ll also be analysing the huge kerfuffle caused by Bumble’s billboard campaign this week as well as peering into the New York to Dublin portal. Next week we’ll be doing the first out two beauty specials - starting with a deep dive into the world of makeovers.
