The Privilege Of Agreeing To Disagree

Grizzly Kiki | Pop Culture & Interviews With Queer Artists

Was It An Act Of Kindness Or Class Solidarity?

On this episode, we discuss the recent controversy surrounding Ellen Degeneres attending a Dallas Cowboys game with former President, George W. Bush. After a photo of them and their spouses went viral on Twitter, Ellen addressed the widespread criticism in a 4-minute speech on her talk show. However, it was more misdirection than anything else. Ellen casually dismissed the gravity of the issue by saying "I'm friends with a lot of people who don't share the same beliefs that I have" & "When I say, 'be kind to one another,' I don't only mean the people that think the same way that you do." With just those two sentences, it is painfully obvious that Ellen is out of touch & has used her wealth & class to attain the privilege to agree to disagree.

In this week's "Keto Korner," we rave about The Girl On Bloor's Philly Cheese Steak Stuffed Peppers & Eatwell 101's Instant Pot Tuscan Soup. In "I'm So Excited," we shout out AHS 1984 & QueerWOC: The Podcast.
