THE MUSTACHE, Gigi’s Pregnancy, & Niall Learning Ukulele - episode 232 - folklore, adore you

THE MUSTACHE was trending in the US over the past week and we discuss why! Harry Styles has grown a quarantine mustache and it is FAB! We discuss the history of mustaches and how they can be political statements, group identifiers (think cops & queer people), and both a way to present masculinity and turn masculinity on its head. We also talk about Niall picking up the ukulele during quarantine (potentially inspired by Julia Michaels) and what songs from Heartbreak Weather and Flicker we would like to hear played on the ukulele. Finally we talk about Gigi Hadid’s pregnancy update and how badass all pregnant people are for going through something so challenging during a pandemic. Check out Talk Direction Down Low on patreon.com/talkdirection for EXTRA PODCAST CONTENT!! This week we talk about the 1D boys X Factor audition songs! We question what songs they would audition with now and how they would need to change their old audition songs to fit their current musical style!
