Framing Britney | I’m not a cat | We are Cooked

Framing Britney, a New York Times documentary investigating pop star Britney Spears’ unusual conservatorship arrangement has ushered the fan-based #FreeBritney movement from the margins to the mainstream.  “I’m here live, I’m not a cat.” Viral video of a Texas lawyer who connected to a zoom-based court hearing with a kitten face filter, then valiantly declared he was prepared to go on with proceedings - as a kitten -  has brought joy to the world. An anatomy of a scene, with BL + BW. And, if Australia is cooked, can culture kill curse? Hear from the creators behind the wildly subversive ABC animated series, Cooked, about the ghost of Captain Cook and Mahnra, an immortal goat inhabited by the spirit of a young Gweagal woman. With Jake Duczynski, Gomeroi and Mandandanji animator and creator of Cooked and James Hackett, Founder of Studio Hackett, and a writer on the series.  Show notes Accounts of Cook's arrival: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-04-26/indigenous-oral-accounts-of-captain-cooks-arrival/12183584 Cancellation of commemorative events for Cook :https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-52461427 "I'm here live, I'm not a cat:" https://twitter.com/lawrencehurley/status/1359297273331675136?s=20 New documentary 'Framing Britney Spears: 'Framing Britney Spears': The Long Fight to 'Free Britney' Britney Spears conservatorship: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/09/arts/music/britney-spears-conservatorship.html Britney posts on instagram after film release: https://www.instagram.com/p/CLFvx1zAVl6/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
