We read The Times’ article on British bedroom habits so you don’t have to. Plus – A slice of cake and a novelty spoon! The Oscars goodie bags are… really underwhelming.     Jacob Jarvis is joined by journalist Holly Thomas and the New Statesman’s Jonn Elledge.    Support Paper Cuts and get mugs, t-shirts and extended ad-free editions: https://back.papercutsshow.com    Follow Paper Cuts:  • Twitter: https://twitter.com/papercutsshow  • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/papercutsshow  • TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@papercutsshow  • Threads: https://www.threads.net/@papercutsshow    Illustrations by Modern Toss https://moderntoss.com     Written and presented by Jacob Jarvis.
