The Overshare Pamphlet

I’m back after a short break and diving straight into my first impressions of Euphoria Season 3. This episode, I talk about the show’s shift away from its high school roots, the darker (and slightly chaotic) new direction, and whether the characters—and even the cast—have outgrown the series. I get into what’s working, what’s not, and why I’m still tuning in anyway. Plus, I share what I’m hoping t...

It’s Oscars night , so this week we’re staying firmly in the movie world.

We unpack the broader context: Chalamet’s recent image change, his...

This week in pop culture? Absolute chaos. From the $111 BILLION Paramount–Warner Bros. deal (and what it really means for Hollywood, CNN, and the future of theatrical releases) to BLACKPINK casually rewriting the rules of global pop dominance, and Pokémon dropping Gen 10 like it’s nothing — we have a lot to unpack. I’m breaking down the politics behind the studio bidding war, why this merger could...

In this week’s episode of The Overshare Pamphlet , I dive into my newest TV obsession: Love Story , the glossy, romantic drama about John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, produced by Ryan Murphy. What starts as a tragic historical retelling quickly turns into a chic, 90s fashion-soaked, paparazzi-fueled saga about fame, glamour, and the cost of being America’s unofficial royal couple....

This week I’m unpacking Emerald Fennell’s new “Wuthering Heights” adaptation — and the bigger question it raises: what actually makes a good book-to-screen adaptation? I break down the original novel’s themes, the film’s biggest changes (and controversies), and why this version feels more like a stylized interpretation than a faithful retelling. Then I wrap up with Songs of the Week. 🛒 Yarok Plan...

This episode is late again… and yes, I have a reason. I stayed up for the Super Bowl like I’m American or something. So this week is basically a pop culture buffet: I’m talking about Bad Bunny’s halftime show (iconic, important, and honestly needed in this current political mess), plus my thoughts on the actual game even though I know absolutely nothing about American football. Like… I’m here for...

The Grammys didn’t air on Monday, so this episode didn’t either. This week, I’m breaking down the 2026 Grammy Awards — reacting to the biggest wins, the biggest shocks, and how everything lined up with the predictions I made a few episodes back. I go through the major categories, from the general field to pop, dance, R&B, and rap, sharing my honest thoughts on who deserved their wins, who didn...

It’s still Oscars Domination Week, so I’m breaking down the 2026 Oscar nominations and sharing who I think should win vs. who I think will win. From major acting races to Best Picture, Director, and some truly baffling snubs (yes, we’re talking Wicked ), this episode is full of hot takes, praise, and a little chaos. I also talk about Sinners’ historic nominations , horror finally getting recogniti...

I’m finally doing it — I’m ranking all three High School Musical movies , and yes, this might ruin my life. As a lifelong HSM superfan, I break down which movie actually deserves the top spot, why the first one is still the blueprint, and where HSM 2 and Senior Year shine (and fall apart). Expect nostalgia, Sharpay Evans supremacy, chaotic hot takes, and strong opinions about iconic songs and miss...

This week on The Overshare Pamphlet , I’m diving back into movie reviews with a deep, emotional look at Hamnet , the critically acclaimed new film directed by Chloé Zhao.

In the episode, I talk about how Hamnet reimagines the or...

Happy New Year! In this episode, I’m kicking off 2026 with my official pop culture ins & outs — what I’m leaving firmly in 2025 and what I’m manifesting for the year ahead. From controversial internet figures and exhausted celebrity discourse, to trends I’m officially done pretending to enjoy, I break down the moments, people, and vibes I’m ready to move on from. On the flip side, I get into w...

I’m back from the holidays to talk about why Avengers: Doomsday has become the most searched movie of next year—and why so much is riding on it. With Marvel struggling post- Endgame and the superhero genre clearly facing burnout, this new Avengers film feels like a real make-or-break moment. I break down Marvel’s recent missteps, DC’s reboot, the return of legacy characters, Robert Downey Jr. as D...

This week on The Overshare Pamphlet , I finally give in to my latest obsession: Heated Rivalry . With the season finale approaching, this episode is a mix of review, love letter, and pitch for anyone who hasn’t started the show yet. Five episodes in, Heated Rivalry has proven itself to be a modern TV standout — a rare series that’s completely captured the cultural conversation. I break down why th...

This week on The Overshare Pamphlet , I break down my first impressions of Taylor Swift’s new docu-series The End of an Era , released during her birthday week alongside the extended Eras Tour film. I talk about what the series gets right — the scale, preparation, and emotional weight of the tour — and where it feels overly curated, repetitive, or hesitant to explore discomfort and burnout. I also...

This week on The Overshare Pamphlet , I’m diving into the wild news that Netflix has won the bid to buy Warner Bros. The deal isn’t government-approved yet, but the fallout has already started — and honestly, it could change Hollywood in some pretty alarming ways. I break down how Warner Bros. ended up here, why Netflix wants this massive IP library so badly, and the huge antitrust concerns being...

In this week’s episode, I’m getting honest about something a lot of us are feeling: entertainment is starting to feel overwhelmingly mid . I break down why—from streaming platforms burying originality to Hollywood clinging to endless sequels, remakes, and nostalgia reboots. I talk about the industry’s growing fear of risk, how vertical integration has changed what we’re allowed to discover, and th...

In this week’s episode of The Overshare Pamphlet , I’m finally back after a short break, and I couldn’t wait to sit down and talk about one of the year’s biggest releases: Wicked: Part Two — Wicked For Good . This film picks up right where Part One left off, adapting the second half of the original stage musical—and it’s definitely the darker, sadder, and more emotionally complicated half. I get i...

Then, I switch gears to talk about Lux , Rosalia’s newest album that’s shaking up...

Welcome back to The Overshare Pamphlet ! Today, we’re diving deep into the best albums of 2025 (so far). I know, I know… it’s early to be talking “Album of the Year” contenders, but the music nerd in me couldn’t resist.

I’m finally back with an album review — and what a comeback it is. This week, I dive deep into West End Girl , the brand-new album from Lily Allen, which has completely blown me away. Written and recorded in just ten days, this project is raw, emotional, and beautifully cohesive — a powerful reflection on her split from David Harbour and the complexities of modern relationships, infidelity, and se...

In this week’s episode of The Overshare Pamphlet , I’m switching things up a bit. Instead of my usual deep dives into music and internet culture, I’m talking about the fast-approaching 2025 awards season — and honestly, what a weird year it’s been for entertainment. Between algorithms fracturing audiences and the lack of true breakout hits, it feels like no one’s watching or listening to the same...
