A transcript of this episode is available here.
In this week's episode, we ask ourselves if the kids know how to critique the media they consume? What makes guilty pleasure "guilty" in 2020. What happens when our faves are revealed to be problematic? We talk murder reality tv, J. "K. for Karen" Rowling, and Brooklyn Nine Nine.

Do The Kids Know? is a series of conversations between friends, Prakash and Kristen, where we challenge our understanding of contemporary media, popular culture, and what it means to live as racialized millennials in KKKanada (That’s Canada spelled with three K’s)
Our goal for this series is to have frank discussions about the stories and nuances missed by sensationalist media as well as to uncover the ways in which white supremacy, capitalism, and colonialism is shaping our movements and behaviours.
Keep tuning in to be a part of the conversation… don’t be a kid who doesn’t know!
