INTERVIEW | How design shapes the world around you

Matilda, Louis and Jess climbed the smallest hills this episode to bring you lukewarm takes. They're not your spiciest hot takes, but they're also not cold; they're just the smallest hills they'd die on! They also talk about National Superhero day, answered life's biggest questions (how did they spend their time during COVID) and discovered who is actually secretly an imposter in the Melbourne/Sydney rivalry!

FULL SHOW | An imposter on the smallest hill we'd die on

Do you feel that? The chill in the breeze, autumn leaves falling, Melbourne “covered in a constant cover of cloud and rain”… you guessed it this week’s Movie Monday dives into perhaps the greatest vampire saga of all time: Twilight.
Don’t worry if you missed it live on SYN we won’t ask, “Where the hell have you been, loca?” you can catch it all right here. It might even be the first time the Get Cereal studio fully agrees on a film.
United by the skin of a killer, the team sinks its teeth into an honest review, uncovers hidden Easter eggs, and asks the big question: cinematic masterpiece or overrated fiction? Listen in to hear what the Cereal Box thought of this undisputed cult classic.

Presenters: Sam Kelly, Maddy Halford and Natalie Hung

Executive Producers: Ella Le Fournour and Sam Kelly

MOVIE MONDAY | Twilight

Sam, Maddy and Natalie kick off the week with the question everyone has a surprisingly specific answer to — what did you actually do during covid downtime? Chess, movies and crochet. The Cereal Box contains multitudes.

Maddy runs through the pop culture recap for April, covering whether Harry Styles is engaged, Euphoria's long-awaited return, whether the Alex Cooper versus Alix Earle drama is a little too convenient, and the sub two hour marathon that actually happened.

For Movie Monday the team digs into Twilight — a cult classic that feels newly relevant with Robert Pattinson back in the spotlight for The Drama with Zendaya.

Mission Monday results are in too, with Sam, Natalie and Maddy reporting back on their social media comfort zone challenge before setting a new mission inspired by creativity and innovation week.

Plus Maddy's got the Melbourne rundown and gig guide to close out the show.
