    The Week That Was: Get Off the Dance Floor, Jacinta, Poo Lettuce & 0nlyFans for Marmots

    This week we've got political exits, Hollywood comebacks nobody asked for, runaway kindergartners, diarrhoea lettuce, Scientology escapes, marmots on OnlyFans... and somehow it all makes perfect sense. Kate wonders when politicians should finally leave the dance floor (looking at you, Jacinta), Tansy has some thoughts about Johnny Depp's latest attempt at a redemption arc, and together they unpack why Anne Hathaway is quietly having the biggest year in Hollywood while everyone else is distracted. We also celebrate Suri Cruise officially becoming Suri Noelle, question why scientists are now funding research through an OnlyFans account for furry little rodents, and discover that the biggest threat to America this week isn't politics... It's the lettuce. Meanwhile, two tiny Melbourne escape artists break out of kindergarten, crawl through a dog door, grab snacks and settle in to watch KPop Demon Hunters—which is either deeply concerning or genuinely iconic. (We're still deciding.) ✨ Victoria gets a new Premier (and Kate has thoughts)✨ Johnny Depp's Ebenezer Scrooge redemption tour✨ Anne Hathaway quietly conquering Hollywood✨ Suri Cruise officially cutting ties with Tom Cruise✨ Scientists launching an OnlyFans... for marmots✨ America's explosive lettuce situation✨ The Melbourne kinders who escaped for snacks and Netflix✨ Plus all the usual chaos, unsolicited opinions and pop culture nonsense you've come to expect. Come for the celebrity gossip. Stay for the diarrhoea discussion. You're welcome. . . . . #TheWeekThatWas #TheBluntAndTheBeautiful #PopCulture #CelebrityNews #AnneHathaway #JohnnyDepp #SuriCruise #Melbourne #Politics #OnlyFans #FunnyPodcast #AustralianPodcast #EntertainmentNews #CurrentAffairs #ComedyPodcast #KateForster #TansyGorman #WeeklyWrap #PodcastRecommendations

    The Week That Was: Piss Boy Hughes, Rebel's Court Drama & Pauline Being Pauline

    Well... what a week. Dave Hughes allegedly peeing in glasses backstage? Tick. Rebel Wilson back in court? Tick. Pauline Hanson saying something that made us collectively sigh into the void? Unfortunately... also tick. This week Kate and Tansy unpack one of the weirdest celebrity stories Australia has produced in a while, dive into Rebel Wilson's latest legal battle, and ask the important questions—like why are so many men apparently allergic to washing their hands? There's also movie chat (because Tansy actually leaves the house), with a review of The Invite, excitement for Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, and a passionate detour into why Sporty Spice deserves far more respect than history has given her. As always, it all somehow ends in politics, Barnaby Joyce, Pauline Hanson, and a reminder that being loud doesn't make you right. This week's chaos includes: Dave Hughes' backstage "piss glass" sagaRebel Wilson's courtroom win (and everything around it)A spoiler-free review of The InviteWhy everyone's talking about The OdysseyMel C's wedding and a very important Spice Girls debatePauline Hanson, domestic violence and why words matterBarnaby Joyce, dogs and absolute political nonsense If you like pop culture, politics, feminism, films, celebrity gossip and two women who refuse to stay on topic for more than about three minutes... welcome. You're among friends. Subscribe, leave a review, and come back next week for whatever fresh chaos the internet serves us.
