EP 122: The 411 - The truth about the Spice Girls reunion + Cosmo says goodbye

On EP 122 of The Thinkergirls Pod Channel, Stacey June and Kristie Mercer creators of some of the most successful female podcasts and content in Australia have a touch base about what the rest of the world is talking about (provided it’s interesting!)... The Spice Girls reunion tour that's never going to happen and Cosmopolitan announced it's closing; what does that mean for the media industry in Australia?

4:30 – There have been a couple of false announcements that there would be a Spice Girls reunion tour.

7:20 – Stace shares a secret: sometimes she enjoys a DJ remix of a Kylie song MORE than Kylie live.

8:54 – It’s 10 years since the last spice girls performance… where they mimed the song. Kristie still froths it.

10:47 – The nostalgia of childhood is a huge motivator in Kristie wanting a Spice Girls reunion.

13:36 – Why isn’t the reunion happening?

17:13 – What happened between Mel B and Geri back in the day?

19:03 – Cosmopolitan announced that they are closing. We’re devo but we sensed it was coming.

22:03 – In 2018, the media industry feels really uncertain.

23:36 – The way the media reports on other media outlets is incredibly insensitive.

25:26 – Cosmo was an education for women across Australia and Stace resents it being degraded to a sex tips and lipstick advice mag in the media.

30:03 – The Australian media is turning on one another because this is such a rocky time for the industry, but they should be banding together.

31:37 – The Aussie media and paparazzi is more savage than overseas media.
