Sydney Sweeney's Bathwater Bonanza Jun 09, 2025

Sydney Sweeney is selling her bathwater… does this make her a bad feminist? Will the Nintendo Switch 2 become the biggest video game console of all time? Where are all the 'real' humans in blockbusters?

The hottest of Hollywood stars, Sydney Sweeney, teamed up with Dr. Squatch to sell soap containing her own bathwater which sold out in seconds. Does this make her a soapy sell-out, or is this all just clean fun - turning her into one of the smartest actors in the business right now?

Richard Osman has got his hands on the record breaking Nintendo Switch 2, what is his verdict? And can Mario stay on top?

Does Hollywood have a problem with humans? Marvel - superheroes, Barbie - toys, Lily & Stitch - aliens. Will humans soon vanish from the big screen?

Gossip: The New Frontier Of The Culture War Jun 02, 2025

Show notes

Is entertainment being weaponised as part of a culture war? Why aren’t we celebrating OnlyFans? The business is a massive UK success story. What can the way The Guardian asks for money tell us about subscriptions?

With left and right politics now firmly established, how are the right deploying entertainment as a means to further their ideology? Who are the protagonists behind the discourse we’re being subjected to?  

OnlyFans was started by Tim Stokely in London in 2016 and has risen to be a billion dollar company but it is rarely spoken about. Is the platform’s core content the reason people seem hesitant to shout about a British success story?

The Guardian now has well over a million paying ’supporters’. How has what could be framed a polite way to request support driven their success?

Gary Lineker Leaves The BBC May 19, 2025

Show notes

Why has Gary Lineker's career at the BBC ended after 30 years? Who has been enabling Diddy for decades in his infamous 'freak-off' parties? Why did Marina queue for three hours in Westfield for a tiny plastic doll - and was it worth it?

Tim Davie sets out his vision for a renewed BBC last week, the pair discuss the future of the public service broadcaster in the UK.

What the hell is a Labubu? And where are 20-somethings obsessed with a cheap plastic toy from China? Marina has the scoop from the frontlines (of late-stage capitalism).
