How a $100m celebrity business came undone
MONDAY ANALYSIS:
Coming up on today’s show: Selena Gomez and her mother are being sued for $1.2 million. It all comes back to Wondermind, the mental health company founded by Selena Gomez, her mum Mandy Teefey, and businesswoman Daniella Pierson in 2022. And in the last four years? Well, there’s quite a bit of drama to catch you up on.
Thank you so much to Telstra for making this epis
Mich's BBL
DUMB STUFF FRIDAYS:

The backlash to the backlash of 'Yesteryear'
MONDAY ANALYSIS:
Coming up on today’s show: We’re talking Yesteryear! It’s the bestselling debut by author Caro Claire Burke, which has sold over 1.4 million copies worldwide and sparked a discourse for the ages. We’re asking the question: why do so many people hate it? And is the hate justified, or something we tend to… reserve for bestselling female authors?
Thankyou so much to Swisse fo
Just trying to sell a wig (don't blow it)
DUMB STUFF FRIDAYS:
Zaz brings a list of things that deserved a rebrand! Then, a viral clip got us thinking about your dumbest mistakes at work – we asked you to send in your stories. And finally, Role Model bombed a cover; his preemptive strike was inspiring, though.

The Phoebe, Paul and Gracie maze
THURSDAY QUICK AND DIRTY:
Phoebe Bridgers' new lyrics about Gracie Abrams (allegedly), some really troubling reports about Perez Hilton, and did Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper get married?

This episode references self-harm and suicidal thoughts
That 'No Influencers' debacle
MONDAY ANALYSIS:
Coming up on today’s show: A tiny antiques store in a small town in the US is making global headlines after displaying a sign that says “No Influencers”. It’s sparked a massive conversation about the state of influencing – and whether or not hating influencers is the same thing as just hating women…
Thank you so much to Netflix for making this episode of Shameless pos

They wrote WHAT in their memoir?
Hello hello! It’s Gil here again, with the last Monday archives episode before Mich and Zaz are back on deck!

MONDAY ANALYSIS:
Coming up on today’s show: Where is Zoella? The influencer has not posted since December last year, and her audience is getting very concerned. But…this has happened before. Every time the internet gets itself into a frenzy over a ‘missing’ figure, the results usually get pretty messy…

THURSDAY QUICK AND DIRTY:
A video on Instagram (credit to @dadgotbars) got us thinking: what do we actually do between the hours of 4pm and 8pm? And then, Ariana Grande… might be back with an ex! Speaking of exes, Callum Turner’s (alleged lol) ex has spoken out about their past relationship, Kylie Jenner has been named in a lawsuit, and Lizzo says her latest album has flopped – but has it? Fina
An affair, a baby, and the "better than average" effect
MONDAY ANALYSIS:
Coming up on today’s show: Lauren Cowell, Simon Cowell’s fiancée, has appeared on a podcast, telling the listeners that she has ‘forgiven herself’ for cheating on her husband and falling pregnant with his friend, Simon Cowell, back in 2013.

DUMB STUFF FRIDAYS:

We are also new Knicks fans (sorry, Selena)

Reese Witherspoon has copped it this week for her comments about learning how to use AI tools. Emma Grede has continued to cop it for her comments about work-from-home culture. All of this backlash got us wondering: do we need a societal return to…pragmatism?

DUMB STUFF FRIDAYS:
Mich has an ‘Are You in Need of Some Intrigue’! And then, we listened to the podcast everyone’s been talking about – in fact, our entire office can’t get enough of it. It's a show called Dominican Sisters Open Mic. To finish, we read a piece online that got us thinking: where’s the most inappropriate place you’ve been broken up with? We asked you guys on Instagram to share…

Is The Devil Wears Prada ready for 2026?
MONDAY ANALYSIS:
Everyone is talking about The Devil Wears Prada – so we re-watched it! (Or, for one of us, watched it for the first time!) We wanted to unpack the fascinating about-face that Vogue, and Anna Wintour herself, have done in the face of the second film. With the first movie, Anna Wintour ignored it with characteristic frostiness. For the second film, though, she’s totally embraced it
Don't you dare take the centre seat

We just wanted to jump into your feeds on a Tuesday because we thought you'd like to know about this incredible interview with Emma Grede (!!!) that just ran on the Style-ish feed. Emma and our very own Rhiannon Joyce.
Rhi and Emma have a wide-ranging conversation about everything from workplace culture and career building, how to best uplift the women around you, the br
Lena Dunham on Jack Antonoff
MONDAY ANALYSIS:
Lena Dunham has just released a brand new memoir – it’s titled Famesick, and it goes into a LOT of detail about the last fourteen(ish) years of her life. There is just far too much in this book for us to cover everything, so we decided to home in on one of the major figures in this book: Jack Antonoff.
Huge thanks to Nespresso for making this episode of Shameless possible. Also
Haha, that's so bemusing
DUMB STUFF FRIDAYS:

The latest updates from Molly Mae and Tommy Fury, and finally, Nikki Glaser likes it when her partner sleeps with other women. Let’s talk about it!
Thanks
Margot Robbie and unmarked motherhood
MONDAY ANALYSIS:
This week, a Courier-Mail headline caught our eye: “Margot Robbie, stop pretending you’re not a mum.” What happens when women in the public eye become mothers – but don’t show their kids on camera? With the justified push to take kids off camera, are we creating a world where the actual experience of motherhood is hidden from view as well?

When a TV show trashes a reputation
MONDAY ANALYSIS:
Love Story, the Disney+ series following the relationship between John F. Kennedy Jr and Carolyn Bessette Kennedy, has just wrapped up. Like many other Ryan Murphy shows, the series has drawn an almost-even mix of praise and condemnation.
Amongst the show’s detractors, however, are people who actually feature in the real-life story of JFK Jr and CBK: Jack Schlossberg, JFK Jr’s

Letting the fools expose themselves
MONDAY ANALYSIS:
We watched the new Louis Theroux documentary, Inside The Manosphere, and we have thoughts. Is Louis Theroux platforming people who shouldn’t be platformed – or is he bringing much-needed attention to a dangerous problem? Should we be exposing these manosphere grifters to the light?

Reluctantly entering polyamory
MONDAY ANALYSIS:
Writer Lindy West has let us into the world of her modern marriage. It made us wonder…do we all know far too much about each other’s relationships? And knowing how cruel the internet can be, why do so many writers continue to mine their personal lives for their work?

The Great Unfollowing of Pregnant Women
MONDAY ANALYSIS:
The great unfollowing of pregnant women across social media. That’s the strange phenomenon/conversation happening online at the moment, where lots of users on TikTok are asking each other: Is it okay to unfollow someone just because they just announced their pregnancy?

A display of “amasing” strength!
DUMB STUFF FRIDAYS:
A dry cleaning AYINOSI! And then, you’ve probably seen the video of McDonald’s CEO Chris Kempczinski trying their new burger – it was cringe, to say the least, because, well…. he didn’t seem overly enthusiastic about eating it. So, we asked you guys to tell us the cringiest thing your boss has done, and to send over any juicy boss dilemmas you wanted us to (try) solve. Plus!

The tangled web of celebrity GoFundMes
MONDAY ANALYSIS:
After the tragic deaths of actors Eric Dane and James Van Der Beek, GoFundMe pages were established to ‘support the families,’ and the donations started rolling in. It begs the question: is it okay for celebrities – or families of celebrities – to ask for charity? Is this a case of asking the poor to donate to the rich? And…have we entered an era where being famous no longer equa
What actually happened between Carolyn Bessette and JFK Jr. in Battery Park
