This episode discusses alleged domestic violence. If you need help, please call 1800RESPECT

Imagine being on death row, only for your execution not to work. That’s exactly what happened to Tennessee woman Christa Pike last week, and we’re certain it’s already being turned into a Netflix true crime documentary. Trigger warning on this one, DLs, as it deals with domestic violence. Former Bachelor star Sam Wood has been charged over an alleged domestic violence incident in Noosa over the weekend. We’re beyond over the problem this country has with violence against women, so where to from here? Then, a silly little palate cleanser. Influencer and Gen Z icon Alix Earle has just claimed she’s never read a book, but fear not! We’ve noticed a micro-trend seeking out tactile media again, and we’re so here for it. Our INs and OUTs include the new quiet luxury symbol, the death of baggy jeans, ugly sunnies and the ultimate beach accessory.

Sam Wood’s DV Charges & The Myth Of The Good Guy

It’s the first official day of school holidays, so we're here to help you through the next few weeks! First up, why the VMAs red carpet is our all-time fave, and did Taylor Swift just address THAT Photoshop scandal? Also, why is Johnny Depp eating media walls, and proof Jacob Elordi is the ultimate wife guy-in-training. Kylie Minogue’s AFL performance was a masterclass in professionalism — take note, Tones And I. We’re breaking down the 58-year-old’s epic show, from the Easter eggs and celeb cameos to its bigger impact on Australian sport and music. Our INs and OUTs include a wacky new swimwear trend, Bogong moths BE GONE, an underwear level-up, and why BB is raging against calling your partner your bestie.

Kylie Minogue Just Schooled Tones and I

We’re fresh from the BEST weekend in Melbourne and feeling all THE FEELS after meeting so many gorgeous DLs. Lu’s found a bingeable new show, BB has a huge round-up of all the live music heading Down Under, and you need to watch Troye Sivan’s new Party video clip immediately. Then, we’re deep-diving into the Ed Sheeran and Macklemore fallout. Two men. Two very different political stances. And now, one of the biggest pop culture stories of the year. Next up, it’s the very silly celeb story we so desperately needed. Channing Tatum’s alleged burner account has been unearthed and it proves he’s just as insecure as the rest of us. But what on earth must Zoë Kravitz and Harry Styles think of it?! Finally, our INs and OUTs include an exciting new celeb beauty line, a lip product that DOES NOT work, and one very important question: why don’t TV series recap previous seasons anymore?!

Channing Tatum’s burner account just revealed a HUGE secret  

No pleasantries today, fam, there’s just far too much juicy goss to get stuck into. First cab off the rank - Australian podcaster Ellidy Pullin is engaged to Brock Wadsworth, and we couldn’t be happier for her, but the media just won’t leave her alone. Did you see that mother monster Lady Gaga is an actual mother? Gaga welcomed her first child and it was a total surprise. From one iconic singer to the next, Celine Dion is officially back on the stage after six years and battling stiff person syndrome, and it’s a sight to behold. Meghan Markle just shared her first dispatches from their new life in the UK, and we have some editing notes. Have you watched Sydney Sweeney’s latest raunchy ad for gambling company Novig? Is it rage-bait? Is it marketing genius? Or do we have no fucks left to give? Lu is spilling the tea on the time she worked at Merivale for Sydney hospitality baron Justin Hemmes, and what his romance with model Simone Holtznagel can teach us about being a society woman in 2026. Meanwhile, BB is furious with The Spice Girls for the biggest stitch-up since they dogged their Australian leg of their world tour in 2007. Rounding it all out with our beloved INs and OUTs, including the colour of spring, a juicy new book, rooftop pools and a stupid internet trend we want to put in the bin.
