Drinking, Consent, and 'Promising Young Woman': A Candid Chat with Seltzer Squad

We don't ever talk about, like how to ask if it's ok, how to ask if it's ok when things seem not ok, or what if something changes, like were you ever taught, like, make sure that he's asking you for consent, or make sure that you're saying it's ok.
What happens when a movie sparks a conversation about real-life issues? In this episode of the Seltzer Squad podcast, hosts Kate and Jes dive into the themes of the film 'Promising Young Woman'. But this isn't just a movie review. They tackle heavy topics like drinking and consent, weaving in their own experiences and societal observations.
The film, starring Carey Mulligan, acts as a springboard for a broader discussion on how alcohol affects decision-making and the often murky waters of consent. Kate and Jes don't shy away from the tough questions: How does society's view of women's behavior influence these issues? What role does alcohol play in our ability to give or understand consent? With their signature mix of humor and honesty, they explore these questions and more.
They also highlight the importance of education and open dialogue in navigating these complex topics. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the intersection of media, societal norms, and personal experiences with drinking and consent. Tune in for a raw, real, and engaging conversation that goes beyond the screen.
