This week, the Hotties are bringing you a #HotFire Higher Ed news round-up that touches on for-profit colleges, cheating schemes, and some real talk about endowments [1:28]. Spoiler alert: they are complicated. KW is a Stark, CT is a Lannister, and the world remains *thoroughly* unsurprised. Next up? Celebrity Break-Ups: the good, the bad, and the highly documented on Instagram [21:26]. What's changed since Brad and Angelina got together? How much does control does any celebrity have on their image these days? What WAS the deal with TSwift and Hiddles??? Then the Hotties discuss a recent episode of Slate's Double X Gabfest and the defensiveness of white women [35:59]. They've got thoughts on diversity in books too: from their first moments of representation in literature to the space we're in now, CT & KW have insights aplenty [44:55]. And FINALLY, they've got everyone's favorite segment: Get Involved [57:06]. CT has new fall shows for your butt, and KW has *~*groovy beats*~* to share. Join them, won't you? This episode contains exuberant swearing and the N word. Music is courtesy of Ryan Little. Find more of his work here: freemusicarchive.org/music/Ryan_Little/.
