Highly / Discussed

When did the internet decide everything had to be for everyone? This week, we're unpacking “what about me?” culture, the obsession with relatability, and why it's perfectly fine to scroll past things you don't like.

Plus, Glo's first time doing laundry, Thati's introduction to Baddies USA, and all things The Traitors, DWTS, and A Different World. Oh, and apparently Alix Earle doesn't read?

We're back after a week off, and apparently, we have a lot of feelings about fictional relationships. You might be surprised by our reaction to The Love Hypothesis, but we also go deep into the whole "you can't help who you love" argument. Because when did we start rooting for step-siblings to fall in love? We're looking at you, My Fault and Our Fault.

Plus, Thati finally completed Vanderpump Rules during maternity leave, we're getting excited for Halloween, and we have one question about this season of Dancing with the Stars: Why isn't anyone having fun?

Is bringing iced coffee to a job interview unprofessional—or are millennials just making up rules? This week, we get into the viral workplace debate, Dancing with the Stars, the Kardashians’ return, influencers taking over fashion spaces, and our verdict on Crew Girl.

Reality TV is supposed to be messy, but when does it stop being fun to watch? This week, we get into Season 5 of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives and why some of it left us feeling more uncomfortable than entertained. Then, Glo finally gets Thati to start Adults.

Plus: Aaron Rodgers had a LOT to share about his past relationship with Shailene Woodley. And Glo brings some important questions to the table: How much should someone’s past excuse the way they treat their friends? And has Hollywood’s obsession with Botox and filler become too normalized?

Earle Meets World gave us a lot to discuss.

We get into what we thought about the new reality show, like the complicated Ashley of it all. Then, we share our first thoughts on the upcoming Dancing with the Stars cast and ask an important question: should selfie lights be allowed at events? 

Welcome to HIGHLY / DISCUSSED — your new pop culture debrief.

Before we get into everything we’ll be discussing in our first season, we’re starting with the most important question: what do we actually like to watch?

Thati and Glo get into their favorite (and least favorite) watches of 2026 so far, why we desperately need original shows again, whether cigarettes are somehow… back, and the very important pipeline from Team Conrad vs. Team Jeremiah to Sterling Point’s Ellis vs. Rory.

Plus, a little about who we are and what you can expect from HIGHLY / DISCUSSED.
