This week on TSB, Alex and Jordy have intel straight from Neighbours HQ, after the show was axed...again. Is this REALLY the end for Australia's longest running soap? Only time will tell...
Alex addresses the theme song controversy of HBO's "White Lotus" and Jordy critiques wellness influencers, after watching Apple Cider Vinegar on Netflix.
The debate continues as to whether SNL is funny, and for some reason, Jordy has been WRONGLY ACCUSED of supporting MAGA. After clearing that up, she throws herself right back in the sh*tter by admitting she loves Big Bang Theory.
The ep ends with our weekly LOL at MAFS contestants and a whinge about the stupid comments we read on social media. Moral of the story? If you've got trauma, DO NOT ENTER SKYE SUITES!!!
