Listen now
Description
The nation is screaming “goooooooooooooal!” as the Matildas bring in the numbers and we froth over football in the Women’s World Cup. Myf and Zan are revelling in it all, and what this moment will do for girls in the future. If you’re always being told you’re wasting your time on your phone, get ready for a hot take from The Atlantic that has us shoot. Were we always wasting our time? And a 1st gen iPod from 2001 has sold for almost US$30k! Why? Why not? Only Murders in the Building returns for a third season, and Zan is glued to the Paul Rudd screen. While Myf is banging on about a brilliant Australian feature film debut that is being acclaimed world over.
