Shameless

Hi there! Coming up on today’s show: it seems like every time SNL cast member Chloe Fineman is mentioned on the internet, the top comment is always something like – “She’s funny, but she’s a Scientologist.” Is it true that Chloe Fineman and her family have ties to Scientology? If it is… wouldn’t that make her a victim who deserves our sympathy, not some big bad bully who deserves to be taken down...

Hiya! Coming up on today’s show: “What about me?” That is the overwhelming theme within so many comment sections these days, and we wanted to deep it.

Thankyou so much to Elite Eleven for making this episode...

Hiya!  On today’s show: Louis Tomlinson’s interview on the DOAC might just be the best celebrity interview we’ve ever listened to, Dolly Parton posted a… proof-of-life video but more on that later, and we might have our ‘first egg on us for egging ourselves too early’ situation on our hands, because Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau very much look like a couple!!!!

Welcome to our review episode of The Life of a Showgirl!!  Is this perhaps the most divisive album of the last few years? Rolling Stone gave it a perfect 5/5, The Guardian a measly 2/5. Oh – and a viral tweet with tens of thousands of likes declared “The Life of a Showgirl is as if Dubai, matcha, pistachio chocolate, Colleen Hoover books, and labubus all had a baby with Al”.  So! What the hell did...

Hiya! On today’s show: the billionaire, the psychedelics and the best-selling memoir. Amy Griffin was already incredibly wealthy before her best-selling memoir, The Tell.
