BREAKIN' NOOZ: Nobody is safe from the Swifties... including the Supreme Swift herself.
Rosie gives Just the Gist of this week's Breakin' Nooz! Episodes drop every Tuesday for subscribers to The Gistener Club bonus content, which you can access via the Just The Gist Patreon or through Apple Premium Subscriptions!
This week!
🎤 Kate Leaver joined us from her house (and she is learning to talk louder!)
💬 We talk about your thoughts on the Honey Boo Boo and Charles Manson eps - Bravo 'After Show' style.
💃 Taylor Swift dropped new album The Life Of A Showgirl, and the Swifties have lots of FEELINGS and THOUGHTS and (Rosie says) exhausting TAKES.
💔 Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are divorcing and of course Rosie has all the theories about how both teams (yes they are seperate teams now) are playing the PR game behind the scenes. (HINT: Nicole is winning obviously.)
🐱🐟 MTV's long-running show Catfish was cancelled last week, which surprised, well, everyone, who thought it already had been cancelled back when we all figured out what 'Google reverse image search' was. Also host Nev Schulman announced a very random new career.
🤖 It was announced at the Zurich film festival last week that Hollywood's hottest new actress Tilly Norwood is about to be signed with a major talent agency, except Tilly Norwood is actually a 'synthetic actor' ie AI ie we are inching closer and closer to the end ie it's probbo time to get jacked arms like Linda Hamilton so we can all lift heavy things when the world turns into Terminator 2.
🤖 All the Tilly Norwood talk veered us into a random discussion about 'Robot Racism'. As in, there are people who say that the real human actors refusing to work on projects with AI 'synthetic actors' are actually being RACIST (Robot-ist?) towards... AI and robots. According to very serious people online, the most offensive thing you can call robots/AI is a 'clanker' and one day we'll all look back and be ashamed that we were so 'bigoted'. Ooft. Listen to the podcast episode of Power User by Taylor Lorenz that Rosie mentioned wherever you listen to poddies, or watch the Youtube vid right here.
