History

It’s the show everyone’s watching.

When Myf and Zan hit Brisbane recently for Bang On Live, comedian Sam Taunton joined them to bang on about Netflix series Baby Reindeer.

He talked about the thrill of bingeing it all in one night on a laptop in bed and shared some behind-the-scenes tales from The Project.

Bonus Bang! Sam Taunton talks Baby Reindeer

Whoosh, it's been a big week and a half and we're here to make sense of it for you and provide a bit of respite. The exhaustion and anger felt by women in the last couple of weeks can't go unmentioned, and we share our thoughts about this endless, frustrating conversation around women's right to live safely.

Cosmopolitan magazine is making a return as an actual glossy, our Nicole has just made history in America, and Myf is vindicated by the public's feelings on the perfect movie length.

Jerry Seinfeld has joined the ranks of blokes of a certain age with opinions on political correctness, so we're going to match him by giving our thoughts on Unfrosted. Yep, his Netflix film on Pop Tarts is also your homework for the Sydney Bang On Live show, fam.

Apparently there's a bunch of people who don't shower daily, or even weekly, and Zan is fascinated. And socks and sandals (also jandals) are making a big comeback! So are piss stained jeans. It's FARSHUN.

We farewell a literary giant in Paul Auster, and we're banging on about a brilliant read from Anna Funder, Wifedom, and a fun watch on Bon Jovi. Bang Medicine.

“It hurt my brain and eyes.”

That’s what one member of the Bang Fam had to say about ‘Irish Wish’, the new Netflix movie starring Lindsay Lohan.

But is it as bad as everyone says?

Hear Myf and Zan debrief on the acting, the farshun and so much more at one of their biggest live shows yet at Melbourne Comedy Festival.

Myf and Zan are back with our recap of the week in music, art, life, and stuff and all boxes are ticked this week. The Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame have announced their 2024 inductees; hear who made it, who didn't, and who cares.

ICYMI Taylor Swift released a new album, then another one a couple of hours later. And there's a lot of conjecture on TTPD. We debrief on the conversations around music's most famous billionaire.

David Beckham has gifted the internet with a Spice Girls reunion and isn't he chuffed about it? And a new release from Troye Sivan's homewares range has everyone talking.

Speaking of art, a huge scale incredible work from Kamilaroi Bigambul artist Archie Moore has just taken out the top prize at the Venice Biennale! And 30 years on, The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert is getting a sequel.

We've set homework for our Brissie Bang On Live shows too, and we're banging on about new series Baby Reindeer and Italian film La Chimera.
