On the show today…

Ryan Gosling is in final negotiations to play Ken in the upcoming Barbie live-action film opposite Margot Robbie, but that’s not the real headline here, because the story behind this movie is full of real-life plot twists.

Plus, Jamie Lynn Spears has released details from her upcoming memoir, claiming her parents locked her away when she became pregnant at 16 and tried to force her into having an abortion. And that’s just the start of her new allegations against them.

And Ruby Rose has made further allegations against her former TV series Batwoman, alleging that the workplace was so abusive she was forced to walk away from the series and sharing troubling stories about her most infamous TV interviews. Now she says she has been forced into hiding.

The Spill by Mamamia

Ruby Rose Posted A Series Of Allegations, Now She's In Hiding

It's the Netflix comedy from Mindy Kaling starring Kate Hudson that is equal parts glossy, chaotic, and completely addictive. Yep, we’re diving headfirst into Running Point Season 2!

It’s a sports show, a family mess, a workplace comedy, and a rom-com experiment all at once — and somehow we’re still fully invested. We unpack why Isla Gordon is such a compelling disaster of a lead, why Season 2 pushes her even further into chaos, and why we can’t decide if we want to be her or run from her.

We get into the love triangle that keeps collapsing under its own “perfect vs passion” logic, why Lev stops feeling so perfect this season, and how Coach Jay suddenly becomes a lot more interesting than expected. Plus, the friendship storyline that quietly becomes the emotional centre of the entire season, Cam’s slow villain energy, and the cameos that feel like Mindy Kaling collecting icons for fun.

And then there’s that finale — the betrayal, the twist, and the very obvious setup for Season 3 chaos.

Love binge-watching TV? The Spill has launched a new podcast called Watch Partywhere we deep dive into the shows everyone’s talking about. Follow the feed on Apple or Spotify now.

A Brutally Honest Review Of Running Point Season 2

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/80d39434-cdc3-467d-a88a-b43600119f64/transcript

This weekend, we’ve got one movie Em couldn’t finish… and one we’ve been counting down to for years.

First, a chilling new thriller set frighteningly close to home, where a solo wilderness trip turns into a full-blown nightmare. Think high-stakes survival, a relentless predator, and the kind of tension that will have you questioning every outdoor plan you’ve ever made.

Then, the sequel that’s been decades in the making has finally arrived — and yes, we have thoughts. From long-awaited reunions and career shake-ups to shocking betrayals and emotional moments that genuinely land, we break down what works, what doesn’t, and whether it lives up to the legacy.

Test your knowledge with our Devil Wears Prada quiz here and let us know how you go!

Weekend Watch: A Terrifying Aussie Thriller & The Sequel We’ve Been Waiting 20 Years For

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/2b184567-f8be-4206-85b8-b4360011cfa2/transcript

First up, what if a movie about a serial killer was actually a meet-cute? A new trailer has dropped for a movie with a premise so unhinged we had to stop scrolling, imagine a beloved horror franchise reimagined as a high-stakes New York rom-com starring an iconic leading lady. Laura has all the details and we are obsessed.

Plus, one of the most anticipated biopics in history has finally hit the box office, but the reaction has been anything but unified. We unpack why the critics and fans are at war and discuss the difficult reality of separating the art from the artist.

And finally, in an extensive new interview, Taylor Swift is officially squashing those rumours of a high-profile industry feud and she has a message for the ‘detectives’ in her fandom. From secret watermarks to her songwriting secrets, we’re looking into the steel boundary she’s just drawn around her personal life.

Watch Taylor Swift's full New York Times interview here.
