She’s wearing a cape
Helloooo! On today’s show: Hailey Bieber is pregnant! And her announcement with Justin Bieber was pretty delightful. What can the TV show of the year - Baby Reindeer - teach us about storytelling and fact vs fiction? Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie are a duo again, what the hell happened on the set of the new Mad Max movie – and what are we to make of Anya Taylor Joy’s quotes? Plus! Meet Clickbait of the Week, a new segment we’re trying on. As we mentioned at the very top of this episode, if you are looking for ways to donate, head here for the link to CharityWatch - an independent charity watchdog - with options that you can consider. This week, Zara recommended ‘The Complicated Sisterhood of Jackie Kennedy and Lee Radziwill’ in Vanity Fair. Mich recommended ‘Can I Just Quit Therapy?’ by Melissa Dahl in The Cut. To read ‘Mad Max: Fury Road: The Oral History of a Modern Action Classic’ in The New York Times, head here. This episode was audio produced by Annabelle Lee.
