After the bloody phenomenon that was “Drivers License,” - I’m sure you’ve heard it - Luce & Liv decided they had to do a deep dive into TikTok’s mega influence over the music industry.

We discuss the drama, TikTok musicals, ALL the songs that have gone viral, and what this means for creative integrity. 

AND YOU SHOULD LISTEN!

Upon the release of Harry Styles' new beauty brand 'Pleasing' and Billie Eilish's new fragrance 'Eilish,' Luce and Liv go into the history of the celebrity beauty brand. From Elizabeth Taylor's perfumes to Rihanna's Fenty line, we discuss whether the world needs more beauty brands (spoiler alert: it doesn't), and we walk through some of the wildest products out there (I'm looking at Goops at home enema kit, and Jessica Simpsons EDIBLE BUBBLE BATH???) Is there a difference between a brand with integrity vs a brand without? OR is it all just a money grab? All the answers in this weeks ep!

In part one of our two-part series on Taylor Swift, Luce and Liv relive Taylor Swift as we’ve always known her. Era by era, we discuss the music, the look, and the people who inspired (sometimes in a good way, sometimes... not) Taylor Swift to become the superstar we’re all enamoured with today. All I can say is it was enchanting to record this episode for you. 

As always, a big shout out to Neon - literally the best NZ streaming service - for making this episode of Culture Vulture possible.

An updated version of our 'What Happened to Ed Sheeran' podcast with an added album review.

FIRST OF ALL, Liv and I LOVE ED SHEERAN. We’ve grown up with him, we used to cover Give Me Love and Kiss Me at every gig we ever played. But we had to ask: how could the same man who wrote Grade 8, This City, The Man, This, Bloodstream, U.N.I etc etc etc write BAD HABITS??? He sang You Need Me Man, I Don’t Need You, Take It Back, Eraser and countless other bangers about not falling into the traps of the music industry and he just sort of has…. (please see: ‘I Don’t Care feat. Justin Bieber’ and ‘South of The Border feat. Camila Cabello’ for more evidence.)

DON’T COME FOR US, WE LOVE HIM WE JUST WANNA LOOK AT WHAT THE MUSIC INDUSTRY CAN DO TO PEOPLE!

Here’s the article I keep referring to! https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/culture/article/ed-sheeran-interview-2021

Luce and Liv sit down to discuss why Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly, Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker and Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson are literally copy and pasted versions of each other! And why they make us cringe (but kinda in a good way...)
