Renegade, WAP, Savage. By now you’ve either recorded your own viral dance video or spent hours scrolling through them on TikTok. In L2G’s eighth episode, we explore choreography in the context of TikTok dances, focusing on whether these dances are the type of expression that is typically protectable under copyright law. Weigh in on the latest binge-worthy show “Queen Charlotte” created by the queen herself, Shonda Rhimes, and let us know your opinions on TikTok restaurant influencers and the Taylor Swift/Matty Healy dating rumors. Later babes!

Artificial Intelligence is taking the world by storm, and babes, we are freaking out. In L2G’s seventh episode, we discuss the legal questions raised by AI-created artwork and compositions, including whether these works are copyrightable, and who would be considered their “author” under copyright law. Chat with us about Ed Sheeran’s recent lawsuit, Jury Duty (the show starring James Marsden, not the civic duty), issues raised by the AI-generated Drake/Weeknd song “Heart On My Sleeve,” and the controversial Choupette cat costumes worn by Doja Cat and Jared Leto at the Met Gala. Meow. Later babes!

“You should see him in a crown” - and this weekend you will. King Charles’ coronation is Saturday, and we are talking all things royal in L2G’s sixth episode. On top of coronation drama, we discuss the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and their ongoing battle for privacy against the British press. Join us as we breakdown the torts of Publication of Private Fact and Intrusion upon Seclusion, using Harry and Meghan’s lawsuits against the British tabloids to illustrate. Play a game of “Royal Rule Roulette” with us, and let us know your thoughts on Phantom of the Opera’s epic Broadway run, the upcoming Harry Potter and Twilight TV series, and Coachella’s downfall. Later babes!

Choose your fighter: Taylor’s original album recordings or her new “Taylor’s version” albums. In L2G’s fifth episode, we talk about why Taylor Swift is re-recording her old albums and break down the difference between publishing rights and masters in the music industry. And, of course, this Taylor-themed episode would not be complete without our thoughts on the Eras tour and a heartbroken (or heart-breaking?) Joe Alwyn. Keep listening for our thoughts on the Montana TikTok ban, AI ChatBot marriages, and a few recent celebrity couple updates (Millie Bobby Brown and Vanessa Hudgens are engaged…to other people, and Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet are breaking the internet). Later babes!

What do Jeff Bezos and Justin Bieber have in common? They didn’t sign prenups. Find out more in L2G’s fourth episode as we unpack the seemingly scary and misunderstood topic of prenuptial agreements and the types of property they typically cover. We also play a “wild celebrity prenup” guessing game, chat about Daisy Jones and the Six (hello Sam Claflin, or should we say Finnick?), and weigh in on why Reese’s eggs are superior to classic peanut butter cups. Later babes!

If you’re looking for trouble, you came to the right place. Join us as we discuss the King of Rock and Roll himself, Elvis Presley, and the latest telling of his life story in Baz Luhrmann’s glittering movie. In L2G’s third episode, we break down the right of publicity and how it impacts this film (and other Hollywood biopics), the iconic moments from Gwyneth Paltrow’s recent trial, and, of course, Austin Butler’s controversial “Elvis voice.” Thank you, thank you very much, for listening. Later babes!

In L2G’s second episode, we discuss the accidental shooting on the film set of Rust. Listen for a breakdown of the facts around the fatal accident, the charges against Alec Baldwin (formally known as Alexander Rae), and some criminal law basics. In lighter news, we chat about Ke Huy Quan’s big Oscar win, the Jonas Brothers’ comeback, Ted Lasso’s mustache, and our thoughts on low rise jeans (please no). Later babes!

Welcome to Licensed to Gossip. If you’ve been wondering how two unrelated Pinocchio movies could be released in the same year, you’ve come to the right place. In L2G’s first episode, we compare Disney’s live action remake to Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio, break down some copyright law basics, and critique Tom Hanks’ tragic performance as Geppetto. If wooden boys aren’t your thing, get ready to chat with us about Rihanna’s comeback, Pedro Pascal’s daddy-ness, and mushroom coffee (does anyone actually drink this?). Later babes!
