Welcome

Welcome to this week’s episode of Life’s a SHITSHOW, where Jo and Tasha dive headfirst into the madness of modern life—across the UK, Europe, and everywhere the chaos reaches. Expect unfiltered opinions, big laughs, and a no-nonsense approach to the topics everyone’s arguing about online.

Episode Summary

This week, we kick things off by reading out some of our wildest troll comments—because if you can’t laugh at internet weirdos, what can you do? Jo shares why Netflix finally got cancelled in her house, and Tasha unpacks the difference between identity and sexuality in kids’ shows. We both agree: let kids be kids, and leave the existential crises for adulthood.

We also tackle TikTok’s bizarre censorship (hello, juice box emoji), Candace Owens’ creative solutions, and Bibi Netanyahu’s influencer payoffs. Then we get serious about the global push for digital IDs: Jo explains what it’s really like in Spain, while Tasha calls out the government’s relentless power grab and the hypocrisy of politicians cashing in.

We talk homeschooling, the failures of traditional education, and why teaching kids to think for themselves is more important than ever. On immigration and asylum, we break down why digital IDs won’t fix a broken system and why consequences matter more than hate. Finally, we touch on civil unrest, cancel culture, and why the so-called “silent majority” is getting louder.

Key Takeaways

  • Trolls are everywhere: We read them, roast them, and wear their comments as a badge of honour.
  • Netflix got the boot: It’s not about cancel culture, it’s about protecting childhood.
  • TikTok censorship is wild: The juice box emoji is now code for “Jews”—and Candace Owens has thoughts.
  • Digital IDs are coming: They’re not about freedom, they’re about control. Jo shares the reality from Spain; Tasha highlights the global trend.
  • Homeschooling wins: Schools teach compliance, not life skills—parents, teach your kids critical thinking.
  • Immigration is a mess: The system is broken, and digital IDs won’t fix it. Consequences matter, not hate.
  • The world is a SHITSHOW—but we’re laughing: If you’re tired of being told what to think, you’re not alone.
