In this episode Nishat finally explains the Lily Allen to Sylvia Plath pipeline, spiraling from 1950s kitchen table to tabloid circuit. We’re dissecting the 'Respectability Olympics' i.e. who’s winning, who’s opting out, and what even is a cool girl? With a mini summary on different waves of feminism and the logistical nightmare of separating the art from the artist sprinkled in.

Walk through Lily Allen's newest album, 'West End Girl' with us and our very biased ears. Aleja and I react to the trials and tribulations of surviving divorce and the messy reality of being a 'Nonmonogamummy'. Some commentary on feminism and an elusive link to Sylvia Plath sprinkled in.

In this return-from-the-dead-esque episode, the ladies of the Literately Yapping book club discuss their thoughts on Philosopher Byung-Chul Han's "The Agony of Eros". Not to be taken too seriously, topics covered include the pandemic, hookup culture, aging out of usefulness in capitalism, the illusion of control in the modern age and much more!

Thanks to some autocorrect miscommunication, in this episode we talk both about our relationship with social media and what it is like to be a person of color who has strayed away from stereotypes. This episode was originally recorded in June of 2020

In the extremely belated second episode of No Good Choices we discuss pandemic burnout, fasting during ramadan, loss of melanin, and our fantasies of starting a farm commune.  Warning: this episode also contains an anti-capitalist rant. Originally recorded in April 2020.

In the inaugural episode of No Good Choices we discuss what hobbies we've taken up to delay insanity during quarentine, whether or not to start an OnlyFans, and why men send dick pics.
