The One About Ageing and Beauty Aug 25, 2026

On this week's episodes of the Shit You Should Care About podcast, Lucy and Abby discuss everything ageing and beauty.

A product for every insecurity, a medication for every flaw. There are AI bots that you can ask exactly what to fix and how. Or comment sections that will give you that advice anyway, free of charge, and consent.

And not conforming to all of the above is deemed defiant.
