 

This week on WHO Group Chat, we’re asking the real questions with WHO's editor Lyndsey Rodrigues and Entertainment Editor Celia Whitley

Is Coachella still a music festival or just Influencer Fashion Week with a cover charge? Why are we paying a week’s rent to eat awkward “gourmet” goulash in a plastic cup? And is “roster dating” actually self‑care, or just chaos in a cute outfit?

Celia and Lindsay start at Coachella 2026, breaking down the Bieber/Sabrina Carpenter/Karol G lineup, the Vanessa‑Hudgens‑core fashion hangover, and whether Coachella has officially been priced into scam territory. Then it’s time for an unhinged but necessary investigation into gig food: what’s acceptable to eat in a crowd, and what should be banned forever

We also detour into our spiralling obsession with JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette Kennedy (plus the TV series Love Story), and why we cannot stop romanticising impossibly chic, probably doomed couples

Lifestyle editor Maddie drops in to explain “roster dating”  seeing multiple people at once on purpose  including how to tell someone they’re not your only Tuesday and what happens when you get ghosted by the same guy twice.

If you’ve ever posted a festival photo double guessing your outfit, eaten something cursed at a gig, or panic texted a “just so you know, I’m seeing other people” msg, this episode is for you.

Listen now and bring your own opinions.

The WHO Group Chat

Coachella: Should 'Gig Goulash' Be a Thing and Are You Being 'Roster Dated' Right Now? 

In this episode, WHO's editor Lyndsey Rodrigues and Entertainment Editor Celia Whitley kick off awards season is reaching its final act, and the group chat has notes.

This week we’re diving headfirst into the beautiful chaos that happens right before the Oscars: predictions, snubs, and the performances everyone is pretending they’ve already seen. Somewhere in the middle of it all sits Hollywood’s most intriguing leading man right now Timothée Chalamet  whose reputation as an artsy, slightly aloof indie darling is suddenly colliding with a very public pop-culture moment where he's been offending everyone from Opera singers to the ballet. What's a man to do to salvage that reputation...if in doubt call a Kardashian. 

Is he still the poetic, cigarette smoking film nerd?
Or is he entering his blockbuster, Kylie adjacent, internet era villain arc? You decide in the chat. We unpack it all. 

But that’s just the beginning.

Moments you'll hear:


We review the gothic fever dream that is The Bride and whether it lives up to the hype.


Tom Holland and Zendaya's secret wedding. We discuss the growing celebrity trend of extreme privacy secret weddings, silent relationships, and stars deciding what they don’t owe the public. 


And finally: witches. BRING. IT. ON. 

Specifically the rise of the modern witch and the wildly popular corner of the internet known as WitchTok  where tarot, moon rituals, manifestation and aesthetic chaos are suddenly very mainstream.

The group chat has thoughts. Obviously.

Listen now and  bring your own opinions!

WitchTok to the Oscars: And The Strange New Era of Timothée Chalamet

Bridgerton hot takes, toxic body trends and a very heated debate about how long a movie should actually be? Add to queue immediately.

In this episode of The Group Chat with WHO, Editor Lyndsey Rodrigues and Entertainment Writer Celia Whitley unpack the latest TikTok obsession with “flared ribs,” why it feels like the new (very unwanted) thigh gap trend, and what an actual expert says about it so we can all calm down and log off.  Then we go head to head over Bridgerton (Lyndsey has never seen a single episode, scandal), before spiralling into a passionate argument about the perfect film length: tight 90 minutes versus epic 2.5‑hour escape. You decide. Come for the pop culture recs, stay for the millennial bodycheck nostalgia and the group chat energy your work teams had.

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.

Bridgerton Blasphemy, Rib Flares and the Crime 101 Brutally Real Film Review 

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 this episode of The Group Chat, WHO Editor Lyndsey Rodrigues and Entertainment Writer Celia Whitley take you on a full feelings roller coaster: from grieving James Van Der Beek and unleashing the frustration around America’s broken healthcare system to rewatching America’s Next Top Model through a 2026 lens and realising it was way less “fashion fairy tale,” way more humiliation TV.

 You’ll hear them unpack the wildest moments from the new ANTM documentary (race‑swapping, glamorised eating disorders, and that brutal Shandi cheating storyline), debate whether reality shows have actually learned anything about caring for their contestants, and then pivot to a bit of Hilary Duff fangirling, MAFS clout‑chasers, and why grown up hobbies might be the real antidote to a happier lifestyle.
