Send us a text This week we’re diving into Taylor’s engagement, Life of a Showgirl, and all those album variants. We chat Sabrina’s new album, Mikael’s broken foot, Fifth Harmony REUNITED and the wild energy of TIFF season. Pure pop culture chaos, just how we like it.

Send us a text We're still on a high from Osheaga. KATSEYE is serving at Lollapalooze and might be the future of pop. JoJo Siwa has entered her raspy era, Ava Max pushed her album back again. (so the internet says), and Dua Lipa is still missing in action.

Demi Lovato's new single "Fast" is the song of the summer we needed. We've got amazing new releases from Reneé Rapp, Chappell Roan and Slayyyter - queer women as usual are here to save pop music. Katy Perry becomes a contender for First Lady. Lastly, but certainly not least, we can't contain our excitement for Osheaga.

FLETCHER dropped a new album (surrounded by lots of controversy), Reneé Rapp won’t stop serving bops, Jojo Siwa is back on our radar (with her most RANDOM opener), and we dissect THAT Coldplay kiss.

Cardi B's album is finally coming but are artists taking too long between albums? New Justin Bieber and Kesha albums are here and Blackpink is BACK. But where is the Song of the Summer? Because it’s definitely not here yet.

Well, what we never thought would happen, happened. Taylor bought her masters back AND Fifth Harmony is apparently reuniting? So much new music including Addison Rae, Miley, Lorde, Ava Max AND Benny Drama’s new show Overcompensating.

Charli XCX is back on the charts with her song "Party 4 U" getting a second wind. We discuss recent movie marketing like Lilo & Stitch and Thunderbolts* and we answer the age old question - is twink offensive?

This week’s episode is a big one — we’re setting the record straight: we’re not dating. 😅 We also dive into some of our favourite album artwork (Lorde, Addison Rae, Fifth Harmony), chat about , artist who end up releasing leaked music (Selena Gomez, Lana Del Ray, Gracie Abrams), and artist who need their “Espresso” moment (Ava Max, Little Mix, Meghan Trainor and more).

Katy Perry takes her song ET to a whole new meaning on today's episode! On today's episode, we talk new music from Marina, with Lorde, Addison Rae and Heidi Montag teasing their summer singles. Plus, our Coachella predictions and our take on the recent JoJo Siwa incident on Celebrity Big Brother...

Two gay besties start a pop culture podcast. How original... On our first episode, we discuss the return of visual albums, all thanks to Miley Cyrus (Something Beauitful) and Ariana Grande (Eternal Sunshine: Brighter Days Ahead - deluxe), videos games to movie adaptations (Minecraft, Sonic the Headhog, Super Mario Bros. Resident Evil, 5 Nights Of Freedy) and our very first big red (orange) carpet at the 2025 JUNOs.
