In this week's episode, we dive into the internet's latest viral phenomenon: West Elm Caleb. Now that the dust has settled, we cover the backstory of how a random NYC f*ckboy went viral on TikTok without his consent and the arguments both for and against this type of content going viral. We explore whether Caleb's alleged behaviour really warrants his mass 'cancellation' and question whether online sleuthing is doing more harm than good.
