On this week’s episode of The Waves, Christina, June, and Thirst Aid Kit’s Nichole Perkins discuss One Day at a Time, Netflix’s take on the classic ‘70s sitcom. The show brings a modern sensibility (and values) to an old-fashioned format, but is its handling of issues authentic, or does it veer into “very special episode” territory? Then, the romance novel industry has been rocked by plagiarism scandals, devaluing work in a genre that’s still fighting for legitimacy. The hosts discuss how Amazon has inadvertently incentivized “gaming” the system—and why so many fans feel personally betrayed by the revelations. Finally, they taxonomize the “reply guys” who plague women’s mentions on Twitter, considering how social media fosters a sense of overfamiliarity, and share some of their own experiences as journalists online.
In Slate Plus: Was the response to Dianne Feinstein’s viral encounter with the Sunrise Movement sexist?
