About this episode
A new TV series on Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee’s whirlwind romance has Courtney Love calling bullshit, and us thinking about how we witness other people’s trauma as entertainment.
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict continues, but it feels as though more people are publicly speaking out about it. We think about what has changed.
A spirited defence of Keanu Reeves has us fist pumping, especially Myf who has had a front row seat to this screen angel’s chill vibe.
And as the mercury drops across the nation, it’s Puffa season. But where did this shapeless cloud coat even come from. We explain.
Meanwhile Myf is lapping up the fashion bio-series on Halston, and Zan is all about the self-love with Rosa’s Wedding.
