We're back, baby! Up this week: surfing Malibu with Jonah Hill and the one time a former Bachelor frontrunner slid into Grace's DMs. Then it's onto Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion's new song, WAP. Is the backlash - and a petition with over 70,000 signatures - over Kylie Jenner’s cameo justified? Why are men so shocked when women talk about their own bodies? WTF is a gushie? And the hilarious viral tweet that proves one conservative man has never had good sex. While we were on break, Kamala Harris was picked as Joe Biden’s running mate for the upcoming US election, which was both celebrated and, in part, criticised. While we discuss both sides, the literal president is busy stealing letterboxes from street corners and saying that America is better than ‘the world’ when it comes to COVID-19. And finally, Ellen DeGeneres has been the subject of a whole lot of accusations of horrific behaviour to staff ever since Legend Dakota Johnson went on her show and refused to pander to her shit - Ask everybody! Ask Jonathan, your producer! After a few tone-deaf celebrities have spoken out defending the talk show host, Ellen herself has taken to leaning on her queerness to deflect. You heard it here first: Toxic workplaces are the next frontier of Me Too. So, who should replace Ellen out of Stanley Tucci and Stanley Tucci? Answer: Dakota Johnson.
