Episode description
We’re making sense of the world around us once again, including why Matt Damon is hanging out at a TAB, and whether Ben Affleck and J-Lo are having a red hot go at it again.
There’s a Cheugy update and it relates to NFT’s. Don’t worry, we’ll explain.
Extensive research into the harassment, assault, and disrespect of women in Australia’s music industry is in the news again, and while it feels like the volume is being turned up we wonder if and when the reckoning will happen in our local scene.
Meanwhile, Myf is snacking on a new series about a reformed girl group called Girls5eva, while Zan is finally getting around to one of Myf’s recommends from last year.
