These Two Celebs Are In A PR Relationship & Inside The Will Arnett and Amy Poehler 'Scandal' Jun 25, 2026

Show notes

A beloved 90s classic is getting the big-budget blockbuster treatment: The Magic School Bus is getting a live-action film with Elizabeth Banks as Ms Frizzle. We're breaking down why Rob Letterman (Detective Pikachu director) has us nervous, and whether Hollywood can actually pull off the magic.
Plus, we've spotted a celeb PR relationship and the signs are absolutely screaming setup. Benson Boone and Alix Earle have all the hallmarks of a calculated love story—the timing, the aesthetic, the TikTok energy, and we're breaking down exactly why this couple feels completely staged.
And Amy Poehler's stepping into the headlines but she's made it crystal clear with her signature "no thank you" that she wants no part of it. A podcast appearance with Will Arnett spiralled into salacious headlines, but Amy's drawing a line in the sand. We're unpacking why everyone from Seth Meyers to Paul Rudd is obsessed with her.

Inside The Off-Campus Romance Nobody Saw Coming & Why Madonna’s Tell-All Biopic Was Cancelled Jun 24, 2026

Show notes

Romeo Beckham is making his acting debut in a sexy new tennis romance called 40 Love, which should be interesting given his brother Brooklyn's very public acting disasters. We're discussing whether the Beckham boys are cursed when it comes to Hollywood, and why stunt casting is apparently the only way to get a movie green-lit anymore.
Plus, we're spiralling over the Off Campus romance that has the internet absolutely feral, complete with saucy paparazzi photos fresh from Paris, a scandalous engagement breakup, and all the messy apologies that came after. The layers to this story are unreal, and we're unpacking every detail.
And Madonna just dropped the most raw, unfiltered interview and she's opened up about her cancelled film, her relationship with her daughter Lourdes, and what it's like raising six kids in the spotlight. This is old-school celeb interview energy that feels genuinely unhinged in the best way.
Read the Madonna interview here.

The Worst Allegations Against Alex Cooper Are Still To Come & The Highest Rated TV Show Of The Year Jun 23, 2026

Show notes

The highest-rated TV show of the year has officially been crowned with a perfect score, but we are intensely divided. We unpack the incredible acting transformations, the separation of page-to-screen adaptations, and an unexpected appearance by our fave ever British period-drama icon.
Plus a chaotic annual awards ceremony just celebrated the very best of pop culture, and the pre-written acceptance speeches have left the internet (and us) in absolute stitches. It is pure comedic escapism that will save you from a boring afternoon.
Finally, a scathing new magazine exposé has sent shockwaves through internet culture, threatening the downfall of a powerful podcast mogul. Allegations of public screaming, inappropriate office behaviour, and weaponised empowerment have left the mogul's reputation in severe jeopardy. We break down the legal fallout, the defence strategy, and the upcoming tell-all book set to blow this feud wide open. Read the Vanity Fair article here.

Brooklyn Beckham’s Brutal Move Against His Family & Why Tyra Banks Is Really Suing Netflix Jun 19, 2026

Show notes

Tyra Banks is taking Netflix to court over her portrayal in the Next Top Model documentary, and the legal documents are absolutely damning. She's claiming that crucial footage was cut to make her look heartless — both in how she responded to Chandi's assault story and when she allegedly ignored Miss Jay after his stroke. The receipts (literally, text messages and proof of contact) are all there, and this could get very messy in court.
Meanwhile, Shrek 5 just arrived with some unexpected creative choices that have got the internet talking. The beloved ogre looks different, and the new cast lineup is bringing star power we didn't anticipate. The franchise is betting big on this one.
Finally, Brooklyn Beckham's latest commercial move has sparked all sorts of reactions, proving that the nepo baby is never far from the headlines — and sometimes in ways we don't see coming.
