It’s Friday I’m Kinda Chic: Trend Backlash, Lindsay Clancy and Forensic Fandom

Some people watch a murder trial the way other people watch Love Island. This week we’re looking at what happens when a real criminal case becomes internet entertainment, and why the audience for all of it is overwhelmingly women. We get into forensic fandom, TikTok detectives and the postpartum psychosis story that’s being drowned out by conspiracy theories about body doubles.

Then something considerably lighter. Everyone made a kinda chic carousel, and then everyone got told off for making a kinda chic carousel. We’re asking why joining in became embarrassing, whether trend backlash is just snobbery in a nicer outfit, and why brands picking fights on the internet is somehow the most enjoyable thing on there.

Dry, funny, no advice, no wellness, and definitely no life coaching.
