    Episode 5: Harry Potter and the Problem with Problematic Faves
    2025/08/11

    What do you do when your favorite artist/writer/celebrity turns out to be… problematic? We dig into the messy gray areas of separating art from the artist, with J.K. Rowling, her role in the trans rights debate, and "Harry Potter" as our central case study. From social media outrage cycles to purity politics, activism to empathy, we explore who gets to decide what’s “problematic” – and how to hold onto the values that matter most.

    Episode 4: What Citizenship Means to Us
    2025/07/28

    What does it mean to really be a citizen? In this episode, we unpack the idea of citizenship – not just as a legal status, but as a shared responsibility, a way of thinking, and a form of belonging. From protesting injustice to pushing back on consumer-first solutions, we explore how citizenship can become a more inclusive, collective, and powerful force for change.

    Ep. 1: The Death of Nuance
    2025/04/20

    Welcome to the Who Has Time For This? Podcast! In our first episode, Caitlin and Katie take on the lost art of nuance. From the news cycle to political debates to heated social media discourse, we’re losing the ability to sit and think in the gray areas. Why is everything so black and white these days – and what toll is this dynamic taking on our conversations (and our sanity)? The two best friends unpack the rise of outrage bait, the fall of thoughtful dialogue, and share some practical ways to bring complexity, compassion, and clarity back to how we consume and communicate information.
