    Australia’s Petition Against Meghan Markle & The Drama Behind Zendaya’s New Movie

    30/03/2026 | 36 mins.
    Taylor Swift made her first big publicity appearance since the release of The Life of A Showgirl, and everything from her outfit, to her speech, and the way she acted around Travis Kelce is being dissected.

    Plus, a petition has been launched regarding Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s upcoming visit to Australia. Now the royal couple has responded, and reading between the lines of their response, they are quite unhappy about the whole thing.

    And the all-encompassing press tour for Robert Pattinson and Zendaya’s new movie The Drama is coming to an end with the movie’s release this week, but now some real-life drama has bubbled up behind the scenes.

    The Problematic Movie Romances We Secretly Love

    27/03/2026 | 48 mins.
    We’ve spent the week spiralling over the Suddenly 30 reboot, and it’s led us down a rabbit hole of our favourite romcoms with problematic premises, that we love wholeheartedly nonetheless. It turns out "romance" in the 90s and early 2000s was often just a crime set to a peppy soundtrack, and we're here to admit it.

    We're unpacking the supposed romantic "grand gestures" and breaking down the gap between what we want in real life and what we find "hot" on film, from the sex work of Pretty Woman to to why the teacher-student plot in Never Been Kissed still stops us in our tracks.

    Plus, we have thoughts on the 2026 "Whimsy Drought." We’re unpacking why modern movies feel too polished and why we’re self-medicating with the messy, high-stakes lying of movies like How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days. It’s a deep dive into the absolute classics that might just save you from a boring weekend.

    Weekend Watch: A Horror From The Makers Of Stranger Things & Your Childhood Favourite Comes To Life

    26/03/2026 | 24 mins.
    Today we’re diving headfirst into the fantasy epic based on Enid Blyton's classic series, delivering magical worlds, a massive enchanted tree, and the kind of spectacle that makes you wish your living room was a cinema. While some of the modernised elements split us down the middle, the visual world-building is exactly what we dreamed of as kids.

    And Em has a review of the new slasher film that’s currently tearing up the cinema. With a Harry Potter fave taking on a wild new role and a plot full of gory surprises, we break down whether this hotel horror delivers or if it's just too bloody for its own good. Is it actually scary? Did Em spend the whole time covering her eyes? And why is this the perfect group cinema experience.

    Plus, we’ve started the new horror series from the Duffer Brothers - and it’s moodier, more claustrophobic, and far more unsettling than you’d think. It's a high-stakes wedding mystery that is so bingeable you’ll be up until 2am like Laura trying to figure out the twist. Three very different vibes. One very stacked weekend.

    The One Comment That Made Us Turn On This MAFS Man

    26/03/2026 | 28 mins.
    We’re nearing the end of Married At First Sight and a week of home visits have caused fresh drama for these fake married couples.

    From a pillow that could have exposed a cheating scandal, to a fishing trip we found oddly romantic and the most awkward car ride and break-up we’ve ever witnessed, it’s time to unpack all the drama and (unintentionally) hilarious moments from this week.

    Then it’s on to the dinner party, and boy, is there one doozy of a fight that we need to discuss that highlights one of the biggest issues with dating straight men in 2026.
