About this episode
Myf and Zan are beside themselves with joy at the news Rihanna is pregnant with A$AP Rocky’s baby, and in conniptions over the big reveal.
The wholesome backstory of Wordle has taken on another context, with the news that the NY Times has purchased the word game for a figure “in the low 7’s”.
And Neil Young’s protest against Spotify’s housing of Joe Rogan’s podcast is gathering steam, we dig into the how’s, why’s, and what next of it all.
We’ve been busy listening (while gardening) too, with Kate Langbroek’s new memoir and a brilliant podcast on the wild story behind male strippers The Chippendales.
