Myf and Zan are back after their summer break, and we’re rolling off the pool noodles and into 2022 with our Wordles sorted.

And Just Like That... has settled in over the break too, and we catch up on how the Sex & the City reboot is traveling.

Grace Tame has wound up her epic stint as Australian of the Year, but not before being slammed by some media by how she engaged with the PM. Peter Van Onselen has thoughts, and so do we.

And speaking of blokes with opinions on how women do/don’t behave, Damon Albarn has caused a stir by falsely claiming Taylor Swift doesn’t write her own songs. Not today, Damo.

It’s the first episode of the season and there’s a fashun update fit for a thesis, while Myf is banging on about Australian TV drama Love Me and Zan has just read Kim Gordon’s biography.
