    Well baby you can lose it overnight

    G’day, everyone!

    On today’s show: the Bennifer divorce rumours and what we make of them. Sophie Turner talks to VOGUE about the fallout of her split from Joe Jonas, the ‘It Ends With Us’ trailer is here and it looks… surprisingly good, CCTV footage of Diddy assaulting Cassie is leaked to the media, Harry Styles is probably single again, and Jeremy Clarkson is the hottest man in the UK! Apparently!

    This week, Mich recommended Billie Eilish’s latest album, ‘HIT ME HARD AND SOFT’. Zara recommended the podcast AdMission, as well as Bridgerton S3, P1 on Netflix.

    This episode was audio produced by Annabelle Lee.

    Daytime TV that raised us: Jerry Springer

    Daytime TV that raised us: Jerry Springer

    Hello, everyone!

    Welcome to the first episode of our Scandal series, ‘Daytime TV that raised us’. First up: Jerry Springer. It was one of the trashiest television shows we watched growing up. And the man behind it? Well, he was rather complex. So, what went into creating it?

    This episode was researched by Eilish Gilligan and Chloe Wilson, and audio produced by Annabelle Lee.

    Big thanks to CeraVe for making this episode possible. You can easily shop them online or at your nearest Chemist Warehouse store to stock up and keep your skin glowing all winter long.

    Daytime TV that raised us: Dr. Phil

    Daytime TV that raised us: Dr. Phil

    Oh hey!

    It’s the final episode of our 'Daytime TV that raised us’ series, and today, we’re deep-diving Dr. Phil. A man so recognisable we can say his name and you’ll probably hear his voice, his trademark straight-talking advice. He was total ratings gold. He was also, perhaps unsurprisingly, an incredibly complicated character.

    This episode was researched by Eilish Gilligan and Chloe Wilson, and audio produced by Annabelle Lee.

    Daytime TV that raised us: Judge Judy

    Daytime TV that raised us: Judge Judy

    Oh hi, everyone!

    She’s the straight-talking judge who was beamed into living rooms every weekday for years. If you’re a 90s kid, Judge Judy was a TV staple. So, what went into creating it? And who is its central star, Judith Scheindlin?

    This episode was researched by Eilish Gilligan and Chloe Wilson, and audio produced by Annabelle Lee.

    Helloooo!

    On today’s show: Hailey Bieber is pregnant! And her announcement with Justin Bieber was pretty delightful. What can the TV show of the year - Baby Reindeer - teach us about storytelling and fact vs fiction? Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie are a duo again, what the hell happened on the set of the new Mad Max movie – and what are we to make of Anya Taylor Joy’s quotes? Plus! Meet Clickbait of the Week, a new segment we’re trying on.

    As we mentioned at the very top of this episode, if you are looking for ways to donate, head here for the link to CharityWatch - an independent charity watchdog - with options that you can consider.

    This week, Zara recommended ‘The Complicated Sisterhood of Jackie Kennedy and Lee Radziwill’ in Vanity Fair. Mich recommended ‘Can I Just Quit Therapy?’ by Melissa Dahl in The Cut.

    To read ‘Mad Max: Fury Road: The Oral History of a Modern Action Classic’ in The New York Times, head here.

    This episode was audio produced by Annabelle Lee.

Have been an avid listener for years now. Michelle and Zara have a way with words! I love listening to their take on pop culture and the in depth, educated discussion around certain topics. Thought provoking and entertaining. Love everything you do girls ❣️

Roooooooooosaaaaaaay ,

10/10

Easily one of my favourite podcasts, have been listening since it first started and it’s been so fun to watch the show grow! I appreciate Zara and Michelle’s measured takes - I feel they are the voice of reason I’m looking for, whenever a pop culture scandal happens. Love the bonus episodes and scandal episodes too. Keep doing what you’re doing!
