    A Brutally Honest Review Of The Odyssey (Part 1)

    There was SO much to say about Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey that we couldn't fit it into one episode — we tried, we failed miserably, and honestly we're thrilled about it, so you're getting a two-parter.This is Part 1, where we set sail into the three-hour epic everyone's been waiting for. We get into the Trojan Horse reimagining that traces back to the Troy movie Nolan never made, and the brutal sacrifice that recontextualises the whole opening. We defend the Cyclops (hear us out — on a rewatch, he's the victim).We break down the slow, skin-crawling transformation scene that out-brutals every battle. And we get into why the first woman to translate The Odyssey, absolutely hates this film — the missing sex, the grim food, all of it. It's epic, brutal and occasionally unhinged. Part 2 drops soon.TAKE THE SPILL QUIZ HERETHE END BITS Find and follow us on socials: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thespillpodcast/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thespillpod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thespillpodcast/ Read all the latest entertainment news on Mamamia: https://mamamia.com.au/entertainment/Support Independent Women’s Media.

    Weekend Watch: An Unmissable Comedy, The Marvel Movie We’ve Been Waiting For & A Thrilling Shark Film

    The cult Aussie rom-com everyone's been quietly obsessed with is back for its third and final season, and if you've somehow missed it, now's the time to catch up. Its real-life married co-creators have the kind of chemistry you can't fake, backed by a scene-stealing cast of chaotic families and coworkers.  Plus, The Spill team hit the premiere of the biggest superhero movie of the year — don't worry, we're keeping things spoiler-free, but we're unpacking why even the Marvel-fatigued are walking out obsessed, one surprise appearance we're still not over, and the very human story underneath it all. And if you're after something completely different, we've also got a recommendation for a  tense new shark thriller set inside an underwater cave system. Think claustrophobia, friendship drama and one very angry bull shark.

    Ariana Grande told some alleged hackers she'd see them in jail, and now she's actually following through. We're unpacking the lawsuit she's filed over stolen unreleased music, private photos and a multi-year campaign that reached deep into her inner circle. Plus the darker history it drags up: Hugh Grant, the royals, and the 2014 scandal one A-lister has never recovered from.Meanwhile, a tiny $3 million movie became a cult obsession, and now its brand-new sequel trailer has us clutching our chests all over again. If you're scared of heights, look away now.Plus, an offhand comment has us spiralling over the one reboot we didn't know we needed. We're getting emotional about Lea Michele's wild attempts at a redemption arc, the cast we lost, and whether some magic is better left untouched. TAKE THE SPILL QUIZ HERETHE END BITS Find and follow us on socials: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thespillpodcast/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thespillpod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thespillpodcast/ Support independent women's media The Out Loud hosts have handpicked their all-time favourite reads and one subscriber is winning the entire 12-book stack.

    The Tom Cruise Story We’ve Been Trained To Forget & An Infamous Hollywood Romance Has Resurfaced

    Tom Cruise's daughter has quietly cut the cord, and she didn't need a headline to do it. We're unpacking how Suri chose a very pointed new surname, where eagle-eyed fans found the proof, and why this feels like the loudest silent statement in Hollywood.Then, one of the buzziest new shows has pulled off a casting move so cheeky it's basically a dare. Two of its young stars share a very tangled family history, because their parents were once one of Hollywood's great fairytale romances — and reporters on the red carpet made them squirm over it.Plus, a fresh first look at a bold new take on an icon, with two very different actresses stepping into the same legendary shoes.TAKE THE SPILL QUIZ HERETHE END BITS Find and follow us on socials: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thespillpodcast/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thespillpod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thespillpodcast/ Read all the latest entertainment news on Mamamia: https://mamamia.com.au/entertainment/Support Independent Women’s Media.

    Zendaya and Tom Holland’s PR Plan Uncovered & The Juicy Book Drama About Natalie Portman

    Nicole Kidman has resurfaced in Portofino with a mystery man on her arm, and the grainy, old-school paparazzi shots have us fully spiralling. After that heartbreaking Keith Urban split, we're unpacking why the whole internet (us very much included) is quietly rooting for her romantic little escapade.Then Zendaya and Tom Holland have spent months running two wildly different press tours, and the contrast is telling. We're deep diving into how one half is a giddy 'wife guy' and the other is dodging every question with surgical precision, and what it reveals about keeping a marriage secret in plain sight.Plus, the pop culture collision we can't stop obsessing over: a beloved author, a famous former friend, and a new novel so thinly veiled that Hollywood and the New York literary scene are equally scandalised. Someone feels very betrayed — and the fallout mirrors the book itself.TAKE THE SPILL QUIZ HERERemember The Spill drops the tea twice a day in this feed so follow us for all the latest entertainment news… OR you can WATCH our show in full length video on the Apple Podcast app - make sure your phone is up to date and enjoy the watch!
