    The ‘Freezer Spell’ Trend & A Lethal Sex Act

    It took $18 billion to get kids off instagram. Meta has agreed to pay the landmark sum to make social media safer. Mia breaks down what’s actually changing, whether it will actually help, or whether we’re all too addicted. Plus, Mia and Nicole Kidman have something surprisingly specific in common. There’s a “freezer spell” trend taking over group chats, is it setting a boundary… or just a very cold way of avoiding a difficult conversation? A tragic death has prompted a deeply uncomfortable conversation about sex, consent and what young people now consider normal. Amelia looks at why sexual choking has become so widespread among young people and why experts say that consenting to something doesn’t necessarily make it safe.

We’re officially ditching 'Scurrilous Gossip' (it made us feel... grubby) for the much more accurate Celebrities Doing Things.™️ Kendall Jenner and our very own Jacob Elordi have moved from 'sandwiching' fans in Tokyo to a full-blown red carpet hand-hold. Is Jacob following the Timothée Chalamet playbook for serious actors, or is he just tired of hiding in the back of influencer SUVs? And how did Hollywood’s funniest, most 'schlubby' couple become a cautionary tale of ideological schisms? We discuss Anna Faris’s recent revelation about the difficulty of co-parenting with an ex when one person is following a path of devotion and the other is just trying to survive a talk show circuit. Plus, after eight years of 'conscious uncoupling' adjacent vibes with Chris Martin, Dakota Johnson is back on the market (after being briefly off it again with a man named Tucker).

    The Sydney Swans scandal has left fans devastated, but what does it mean for a club that built its identity around being progressive, inclusive and different from other sporting codes? Mia Freedman, Em Vernem and Amelia Lester unpack the fallout and why so many female fans feel betrayed by a team they thought was a safe place to belong. Plus, Harry and Meghan are moving back to the UK... but why? Our royal correspondent Holly Wainwright dials in to tell us what’s really behind their return, from family reconciliation to Meghan’s career and Harry’s relationship with his home country.
