Hello and welcome! You’ve been added to The Group Chat with your besties at WHO. 
This is a podcast for anyone who is chronically online and chaotically addicted to pop culture. If your version of self-care includes catching up on the latest scandals and showmances that have everyone talking, we are definitely the group chat you want to join.

In episode four, WHO Editor Lyndsey Rodrigues and Entertainment Writer Celia Whitley are losing it over the release of Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model and wondering if shows like this even exist anymore. They also have some gripes about the first assigned book for their book club, and are wondering just how  author Frieda McFadden has time to write so many books AND be a practising doctor!

Meanwhile, if coveting cabbages was on your 2026 bingo card, then... we have questions, tbh. But, also, you'll want to hear what Lifestyle Editor Madison Bogisch has to say about the trend (and recession indicator) we never saw coming. 
So, grab a tea or something stronger, and join us in The Group Chat.

The Group Chat the show mixed by WHO and stirred by you, 

🎧You’ll hear:

America’s Next Top Model in 2026: the new doco, Tyra’s “we took it too far” era, and why a show that once worshipped size‑0 bodies could never be made now.

Watching old reality TV through a “woke lens”: can you critique a relic of the 2000s and still admit you were obsessed with it at the time?

📚A Brutally Real Book Review of The Tenant by Freida McFadden, why it felt like “Gone Girl déjà vu,” and how it still became unavoidable “it girl” reading

Page to screen: Sydney Sweeney, Amanda Seyfried, and the missing Enzo scene that lowkey breaks The Housemaid movie for book fans.

Romance recs: Emily Henry’s People We Meet on Vacation as a Gen Z‑ish When Harry Met Sally, and why friends to lovers still hits every time

Lifestyle hit!

🥬Enter the Cabbage Queen: lifestyle guru Snr Content Producer Madison Bogisch  explains how cabbage went from diet‑culture soup to TikTok‑famous gut‑health girlie. The cabbage recession indicator: why your $2 cabbage might soon cost $20, and how fruit and veg are quietly turning into luxury items.

It’s messy dopamine energy hit  in podcast form: a little nostalgic, a little unhinged, and very up to speed on whatever the internet is obsessing over this week. Enjoy!  💬✨
