BUST magazine’s October/November issue featuring cover gal Aidy Bryant is on sale now!
BUST’s new October/November issue is bursting with women’s stories, from our cover feature on SNL star Aidy Bryant, to Kim Gordon’s interview with Carrie Brownstein, to the history of the Native American women who inspired early suffragists. Plus, we’ve got the low down on the latest projects from Abigail Breslin, Mac DeMarco, Beach House, and more!
All this, along with our buzz-worthy feature story “I JOINED A SEX CULT” (you gotta read it to believe it) make Oct/Nov an issue to remember.
We’ll be slowly rolling the print features out on BUST.com over the next two months, but it means the world to us if you buy BUST on newsstands (at Barnes & Noble and other stores listed here) or, better yet, SUBSCRIBE – subscriptions are available in print, digital or, best of all, both.
BUST is independent, feminist, print media—no misogynist rich dude founder using women as desks, nobody making us take down stories advertisers object to. And we need your help to keep it that way. So subscribe today!
