We also get an inside look at what a fashion buyer actually does. It's not just shopping all day; it involves deep data analysis and keeping a finger on the pulse of global pop culture.

We are joined in the studio by the brilliant Tom Sainsbury to celebrate the launch of his new series, Small Town Scandal. 

 From mysterious deaths by lawnmower to the "sordid" secrets bubbling under the surface of our local towns, Tom breaks down why we’re all so obsessed with a good scandal.

We also got a bit nostalgic talking about our favourite pop culture moments. Tom is a huge fan of the Beckhams and, of course, a massive Taylor Swiftie. We dig into why these celebrities still have us hooked and how Tom manages to stay so "human" while being one of the biggest names in Kiwi comedy.

If you love the Bravo universe, this one’s for you. This week we’re joined by Brice Sander, the self-appointed Chief Real Housewives correspondent and the man who somehow gets reality stars to fight right in front of him.

We get into everything from Salt Lake City’s elite status, the Jen Shah question, Monica’s Instagram exposés, and whether Heather Gay is really puppeteering the show. Brice also shares his take on Meredith’s infamous plane drama, Mary Cosby and the cult rumours, and why alleged farting affairs are sometimes better TV than FBI-level scandals.

Plus, we jump across franchises to Beverly Hills, OC, Vanderpump Rules and beyond. From Lisa Vanderpump’s unlikely return to Kyle and Mauricio’s marriage rumours, Brice gives us the calm, clear-eyed take every Bravo fan needs.

If you thought pop culture might calm down for five minutes, absolutely not. This week we unpack the Beckham family drama that’s somehow united the entire internet, and why David and Victoria’s silence might actually be the smartest PR move we’ve seen in years.

We get into the wedding moment that kicked it all off, why Marc Anthony may have lit the fuse, and how Spice Girls fans have accidentally boosted Victoria Beckham to the top of the charts. There’s also Charli XCX fangirling over a Real Housewives icon, Meredith Marks DJing with caviar, and why that whole moment feels both unhinged and perfect.

Plus, we talk Taylor Swift and Blake Lively’s leaked texts, why loyalty isn’t being a mean girl, thoughts on Kanye West’s apology and accountability, and a very late but very intense Tell Me Lies obsession. It’s messy, funny, thoughtful, and exactly the pop culture escape we all need right now.

We thought we were ready to upload, and then the internet did what it always does. This week’s Pop Culture Wrap took a sharp left when Brooklyn Beckham dropped a six-page Instagram statement that had everyone talking.

We unpack what Brooklyn said about his family, why it feels so heavy, and why it’s such a confronting read, especially when it all plays out publicly. From there, we get into reality TV joy, including why Lisa Barlow from Real Housewives of Salt Lake City is our undeniable person of the week, and why Ben Affleck keeps getting name-dropped by Utah housewives.

There’s also celebrity DM chaos, Spencer Pratt replying to drunken messages, awkward Golden Globes energy between Pamela Anderson and Seth Rogen, and why Heated Rivalry has quietly become part of our personality. It’s a big pop culture week, so we’ve done the scrolling for you.
