  • A rebuttal to the wellness warriors

    Hello! Happy Thursday!


    On today’s show: Explaining the Emma Roberts meme all over your timeline right now, Reese Witherspoon becomes the world’s richest actress, old mate Farmer Will from Farmer Wants A Wife finally addresses the rumour that he got a contestant pregnant, and - finally - a rebuttal to the Instagram wellness warriors who are telling us that we need to go back to the good old days.


    This week, Zara recommended listening to ‘The Story of Simone Biles’ on The Daily. Mich recommended you follow @thehealchef on TikTok, as well as their interview with Jock Zonfrillo on The Books that Changed My Life, which you can find on the LiSTNR app.

  • The cult of celebrity: Part two

    Happy Monday pals!


    Welcome to part two of our Scientology series. Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman were married, in love, and the parents of two children when the Church of Scientology identified Nicole as a threat. They wouldn’t rest until Tom - their crown jewel - was firmly in their grasp again.

    Happy Saturday, friends!


    This month we read ‘Malibu Rising’ by Taylor Jenkins Reid - the same author of our most popular book club pick yet, Daisy Jones and The Six. Malibu Rising follows four famous siblings as they throw an epic party to celebrate the end of summer in 1983. But over the course of twenty-four hours, their lives will change forever.


    Today on the show, Mich, Zara, and Annabelle talk all things characters, that chaotic Riva party, and the recurring generational patterns of family ties.


    Grab a copy of next month’s book club pick, Fault Lines, via our affiliate link here.

  • Tough titties, back home you go

    HEY BESTIES!


    On today’s show: How many wedding dresses are too many dresses? Ange and Brad’s never-ending divorce hits another hurdle, the strangest kind-of-feud between Lisa Wilkinson and Khloe Kardashian, an investigation into whether J Lo and Ben Affleck are absolutely trolling us and then, finally, a conversation, in the wake of The Bachelor airing, about why we so rarely give reality stars the benefit for the doubt.


    This week, Zara recommended Tom Daley’s interview with Desert Island Discs. Mich recommended, well, watching the Olympics. Ground breaking.

  • The cult of celebrity: Part one

    Goooood morning all!


    It’s the church-meet-cult that’s famous for indoctrinating celebrities - Elisabeth Moss, John Travolta, and most notably, Tom Cruise. So, what the hell do we know about Scientology? And how does it have such a star-studded list of devotees?


    Head here to read that LA Times piece on Scientology founder L Ron Hubbard, and here for Laura Prepon’s interview with Celebrity Magazine.

  • Steak for breakfast, anyone?

    Happy Thursday mates!


    On today’s show: Former Aussie Bachelorette Elly Miles is slammed for promoting a diet where you only eat meat, old mate Jeff Bezos popped on a cowboy hat and left the planet, a script has been leaked from the set of the new Sex and The City spinoff, and - finally - what the hell were Channel 7 and Big Brother thinking when it came to casting well-known bigot and troll Katie Hopkins?


    This week, Zara recommended Line of Duty on Netflix. Mich recommended Luxe Listings Sydney on Amazon Prime.

  • Beyoncé, Jay-Z and Elevatorgate: Part two

    Hiya legends!!!


    Welcome to part two of our Elevatorgate series. When CCTV footage of Beyoncé, Solange and Jay Z in an elevator leaked to the media, the public had no idea what to make of it. Then, two years later, we were introduced to Becky with the good hair.

  • Ah, the beauty of good PR

    Hellooooo friends!


    On today’s show: Why Kylie Jenner and Kim Kardashian’s cosmetic brands (as we know them) are disappearing, almost overnight. Plus, Love Island is back, but is it doing enough to protect its contestants' mental health? And then, the bizarre story of Princess Charlene, Monaco’s runaway bride.


    This week, Zara recommended two books: Fault Lines by Emily Itami and Sorrow and Bliss by Meg Mason. Mich recommended listening to the ‘Pieces of Britney’ podcast by Pandora Sykes and BBC Radio 4, and reading ‘Britney Spears’s Conservatorship Nightmare’ in the New Yorker by Ronan Farrow and Jia Tolentino.


    For that clip of Princess Charlene crying at her wedding, head right here.

  • Beyoncé, Jay-Z and Elevatorgate: Part one

    Good morning everyone!


    Today, we’re heading back to 2014. When we watched Jay Z and Beyoncé walk the Met Gala in 2014, we saw a blissfully happy husband and wife. Only, when a black-and-white video leaked a week later, the public realised there had been a trick mirror all along.

  • BOOK CLUB: New Animal

    Link to this episode in the new The Shameless Book Club feed: https://open.spotify.com/episode/29lWc3nOaDhqTcWWbSVVhd?si=d03076672f414219


    Happy Saturday, book clubbers!


    This month, we read the debut novel ‘New Animal’ by Australian author Ella Baxter. This book, set initially in the Northern Rivers of New South Wales, then later in suburban Tasmania, follows the life of Amelia Aurelia; an embalmer who spends her days in funeral homes, painting the faces of the dead, and nights sleeping with strangers via the dating apps on her phone. More than anything, though, this is a novel of grief - by chapter four Amelia’s beloved mother dies by falling down the stairs, and the reader joins the protagonist as she wades through the all-consuming pain of loss.
