Dispatches From The Kardashian Simulacrum: The Power Of Proximity
Is The Bachelor sponsoring this season of The Kardashians? As this season progresses, the family continue to focus on fluffy storylines while ignoring the more serious issues bubbling under the surface. In La, Kris and Khloe are trying to set up Scott, while Kim's in London playing Soccer Mom while dodging her friends matchmaking efforts — and we're still unable to go a full episode without someone begging Khloe to get back with Tristan.
MJ and Marie are exploring how the Kardashians keep on top of their constructed narratives while maintaining fame and relevancy in a world increasingly cynical of the family's actions.
Catch up with season two of our Kardashian podcast series! We've teamed up with the genius behind Kardashian Kolloquium, MJ Corey, and her sister Marie, to breakdown the world of The Kardashians week by week.
We've also introduced a new membership tier for fans of the pod. Support the podcast here!
