#246: And Just Like That, Rom-Coms, Life Coach Cult
Listen now
Description
As we hit record, the official trailer for S02 of “And Just Like That” (aka the Sex and the City reboot) has dropped. Do we care? Of course we do. Next door on HBO, a new Harry Potter series is brewing with some changes afoot. The death of Barry Humphries has drawn different reactions from all corners. Sammy J captures the complexities of farewelling the comic who said some crook stuff in his final years. And we’ve got an update from Matthew Perry and his relationship with Keanu after the weird stuff he said in his memoir. The rom-com is well and truly back, with 37 coming out this year alone! But they’re looking a bit different in 2023. And it’s a double dose of FARSHUN as we preview the Met Gala and farewell Palazzo Versace. Myf has been watching S02 of Love Me, while Zan has been listening to a new podcast on a life coaching cult.
