THE RABBIT HOLE OF PLAYBOY! Have you ever wondered what Ash was on about when she referenced anything Playboy? In this mini-episode, Ash leads you down the rabbit hole of Playboy and the embodiment/founder Hugh Hefner by navigating the the multi-faceted legacy of Hefner and his media empire built on beautiful, bouncing bunnies and the bizarre bastards.

Whilst being overlooked as a figurehead in fighting for civil rights and abortion laws, what was more known was his critics saying he was sending women back decades by fitting them into the roles of 'bunnies' and 'exploiting' them to make his riches. We feature the bunny tales of Holly Madison and Gloria Steinem and attempt to answer the big question: are we able to respect Playboy, it's history, it's legacy and where it stands now as a 2000s throwback for many of us?
