Let them eat cake — Today’s episode is dedicated the cost of living crisis and humanitarian crises that contemporary society forces our complicity in.

We chat about the demographic most at risk of homelessness in Australia, Labour’s lacklustre support, Al Jazeera’s banning from Israel, and the Commonwealth Government’s unique solution to misogynistic radicalisation.

Plus, we dissect Dua Lipa’s floppy flop flop era, plus the controversies and bops going down at the Met Gala and Eurovision.

And to top it all off, we have the ultimate Diva showdown—trying to figure out who is the ultimate diva.

Hope you love it x
