What happens when hypocrisy, politics and Mount Everest all collide?
This week… chaos.


Kate and Tansy unpack the internet losing its mind over an American politician’s husband’s alleged secret life (and why the timing is chef’s kiss), before diving into the very weird energy of global leaders suddenly addressing the public like something’s about to go very wrong.

Spoiler: it probably is.


There’s also:

  • The projection Olympics happening in global politics
  • Albo’s “be calm but also maybe panic” speech
  • Why Mount Everest is giving coloniser energy (and the Sherpas have had enough)
  • Andrew Lloyd Webber needing a therapy dog after Cats
  • Zendaya casually winning PR without even trying
  • Netflix quietly robbing us all blind
  • And a new psychosexual fashion film that feels… deeply unwell

It’s unhinged, slightly conspiratorial, and exactly the kind of week where you go…is everyone okay?

(Answer: no)
