"Sorry, can't come. I've got too much work on." We're diving deep into the glorification of hustle culture, examining what a 'balanced' life actually looks like in 2025, and exploring why some of us genuinely love living for the work (no judgement, just questions).

🍿 Your weekend sorted: We've got the new Aussie show everyone's talking about, the American comedy that's giving us joy, and the Oscar contender that's worth every minute of its runtime. Trust us.

✨ And in Best & Worst: Mia has some thoughts about her boobs (spoiler: it's a journey), an icon's empire crumbles, and a TV cancellation has us questioning everything.
