We get it - we're all sick of reading, thinking, and talking about the slap - so we don't dwell on it for long. Instead we take you through some of the WILD (and some of the downright racist) moments that have occurred in the many years that the Oscars have been running, and I promise you're going to be SHOCKED at some of them. (PS does anyone else remember John Travolta calling Idina Mendel "Adele Dazeem???" Tune in for more!

And OOPS we said that the La La Land/ Moonlight mix up happened in 2007 but it was actually 2017! Sorry team.

This week we discuss the two trends taking over our TikTok/ news feeds at the moment - 'That Girl' and 'Goblin Mode.' Why do we need to keep flattening ourselves and labelling ourselves? Are trends taking the place of religion? How closely is goblin mode tied to mental health? How close is 'That Girl' tied to perfectionism and unrealistic expectations? Is it all this deep???? All you questions answered wherever you get your pods! xx

In this extremely special edition of The Shit Show, we've teamed up with our mates at @Helloperiodco to talk about... periods!

We start off by very candidly running you through our experiences with the Hello Cup, before launching into all of your embarrassing (and amazing) stories. It's wild how so many of our mishaps (like accidentally putting in two tampons, or going swimming and having exploding pads) could be solved by using a period cup or hello disc! We also chat about the impact sanitary items have on the environment, and how Hello Period's new Hello Disc is game changing for workers in the sex industry!

If you want to get your hands on one of these amazing products, you should head to helloperiod.com and use our code GOODSHIT15 for 15% off (anywhere in the world!)

We start off with an analysis of Jake Gyllenhaal's new Esquire profile - and the first time he spoke out about Taylor Swift rerecording Red - before a quick chat about Coachella who will now have no Covid restrictions in place for attendees.

And then, the main event: we talk about Pam and Tommy, the ethics of releasing a show about a leaked sex tape (without the consent of Pamela Anderson!), and take a wee trip down memory lane about the way the media has violated celebrities since basically the beginning of the internet.

We start off with an extremely chaotic chat about Ye - is he ok? Is this a PR stunt? Should we care? How long until everyone tunes out? And then we dive into a far more intellectual chat about the TikTokification of terms like "Lovebombing" and "gaslighting," when "the ick" is actually a red flag, and of course, the Tinder Swindler.

This week we unpack ALL the rumours and criticisms surrounding Season 2 of Euphoria and its creator Sam Levinson. Are we holding Euphoria to an extremely high standard because we were so obsessed with Season 1????? Are these facts to back up the intense TikTok slamming??? Do we wait with bated breath for every new episode anyway???
