Holding Space for a Wickedly Weird Press Tour
What is this feeling so sudden and new? Yes, Beth, Ruchira and Oenone saw Wicked and they're not afraid to report back. Welcome to a very special, very magical (and very juicy) Wicked episode. Listen to find out their review of the year's biggest blockbuster. There were lots of tears... from Cynthia and Ariana. How did the rollout for Wicked turn out so unhinged? Is this an example of theatre kid behaviour and unrestrained earnestness, or something darker? Also, could this set the new bar for what movie marketing looks like from now on? Say what you want but every minute of Wicked's BTS has gone viral. Thanks for listening to this week's episode. We especially adore those who tune in for our bonus eps, follow and rate us five stars.

The Troubles, A Troubling Interview & The Metrics Of Sexiness
Beth, Ruchira and Oenone have been watching, listening and reading... as always. This week, they've all been binging the new historical drama, Say Nothing. The new nine part Disney Plus show is an adaptation of Patrick Redden Keefe’s bestselling book of the same name. The book came out in 2018, the series just dropped last week. It follows closely to the narrative of the book, which was about the Troubles, the IRA, the provisional IRA and a now notorious woman at the centre of it all, Dolours Price. Next up, in an interview with Eva Wiseman for the Observer, actor and director Rebecca Hall says she doesn’t regret working with Woody Allen - a statement which unsurprisingly inspired many a headline. Shockingly, this wasn't the only viral moment of the piece, as Hall also detailed her unconventional wedding to husband and fellow actor Morgan Spector. And lastly, would you want a Sexiest Woman of The Year Award? Or is the men's one already bad enough? In a piece for Grazia titled '‘Sexiest Man Alive’: Here’s Why Lusting Over Men Is Different To Lusting Over Women', the writer Nikki Peach argues that the world is not yet evolved enough for this to happen. Do you agree? Thank you so much for listening - Please make sure you're following us both here on your podcast app and on Instagram & TikTok @everythingiscontentpod and if you fancy leaving us a rating or review... we heard 5 stars is nice this time of year. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ally McBeal Breeders Say Nothing I, Dolours Lucy Mangan, Say Nothing Review Vulture Say Nothing Rebecca Hall Observer Interview Rebecca Hall brutally mocked over wild wedding day remarks On People Magazine’s Sudden Interest in Black People for their “Sexiest Man Alive” Cover The confusing recent history of People’s Sexiest Man Alive ‘Sexiest Man Alive’: Here’s Why Lusting Over Men Is Different To Lusting Over Women People Went With Mass Appeal for Its ‘Sexiest Man’ Hosted on Acast.

Skincare Horror, Mid Movies and Kicking Kids Offline
For the second time this week Beth, Ruchira and Oenone are in your ears talking all things pop culture. First we're discussing Skincare- a film that sounds like it has all the active ingredients for glowing success. Elizabeth Banks stars as an aesthetician & skincare mogul whose life starts to wrinkle after being targeted on & offline. 5 stars or total wet flannel? Next up we're examining the charm of middlebrow movies- e.g. the films that don't break the box office or re-invent cinema but are perfectly good nonetheless. Where did they go and can we have them back before the Marvel and Mattel takeover is complete? Finally we're scrolling down under as Australia proposes plans to kick all kids off social media. The news has been met with both praise and criticism- could it actually do some good or is it too little too late from governments who haven't thought things through? Thank you so much for listening! Please make sure you're following us both here on your podcast app and on Instagram & TikTok @everythingiscontentpod and if you fancy leaving us a rating or review... we heard 5 stars is nice this time of year. ----------- The Guardian - Bird Mad About The Boy Trailer Louis Theroux x Barry Keoghan Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout Variety - Skincare review Everything Is Content - May/December Vox - "Middlebrow" doesn't mean bad YouTube - Matt Damon x Hot Ones CNBC - Australia plans to ban under 16s from social media The Guardian - America's tech bros now strut their stuff in the corridors of power Hosted on Acast.

The EIC newsroom is back with your essential pop culture briefing. Find out which celeb announced her pregnancy this week, and which nepo baby has the internet's heart for simply being tall. Ruchira, Beth and Oenone ensure you're up-to-date with everything in the content world. This week you voted for us to dive into underconsumption core and de-influencing. Is it a trend, or is it here to stay? Let's work it out on the remix (extra episode). As ever, thank you so much for listening to us.

Literary Dilemmas, Influencer Coaching & Boys vs Girls
Happy Friday (following the longest week of 2024). First up, artist and poet James Massiah has claimed that bestselling author Coco Mellors (Blue Sisters) brazenly based one of her characters on him. Beth, Ruchira and Oenone dig into the story and ask: just how much can artists borrow from real life, especially when inspiration comes from people around them? Also, would you sign up for an influencer academy? A New York Times feature dives into influencer Valeria Lipovetsky's new and exclusive scheme that promises to help budding influencers break into the industry. Is it a scam or a savvy business idea for everyone involved? And finally, a "global gender divide" is sweeping the world, as experts warn that more and more young men are voting right, as young women vote progressively. A political split is widening between the two everywhere from the UK, to South Korea and Tunisia. Are we f****d as a society? Thank you so much for listening to us. We love every single person who blasts us in their ears - especially those who follow us and gift us a 5* on their podcast app. ----------- https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/760838/fundamentally-by-nussaibah-younis/ https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/17/movies/anora-review.html https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b0b7r2k6/mortimer-whitehouse-gone-fishing https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/nov/04/london-poet-accuses-author-coco-mellors-of-basing-blue-sisters-character-on-him https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/12/11/cat-person https://www.newyorker.com/books/page-turner/what-it-felt-like-when-cat-person-went-viral https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/26/style/influencer-creator-method-valeria-lipovetsky.html https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-elections/exit-polls https://cawp.rutgers.edu/gender-gap-voting-choices-presidential-elections https://www.ft.com/content/29fd9b5c-2f35-41bf-9d4c-994db4e12998 Hosted on Acast.

Spooky Faves, Gay Halloween and RIP Birth Rates
BOO - Beth, Ruchira and Oenone are back to scare you with some scarily-astute analysis of pop culture in time for Halloween week. First, just how much do they love horror as a genre? From memories of sleepovers and scary-movies, to the recent rise of artistic horrors with social commentary i.e. Jordan Peele's 'Get Out', they dive into their changing relationship to jump-scares and frightening films. Also, listen to hear their best horror recommendations across literature, TV and film. A new meme has the internet in a chokehold. 'Gay Halloween' has radically changed the dressing-up landscape, with people boasting about their pop culture knowledge by donning the most obscure referential costume they can, so only the chronically online understand it. Is it fun or is it pretentious? Finally, we can't forget the real world is full of horrifying things including recent stats that show a significant decline in birth rates. Should women bear the brunt of this societal issue? Whose responsibility is it that we're moving towards an ageing population? If you have anything you want to add to this week’s episode we would LOVE to hear it on Instagram @everythingiscontentpod. See you over there!

Rivals, Respecting Liam Payne and Age Gaps 2.0
This week on the Podcast, Beth, Ruchira and Oenone discuss the devastating news that broke last week, that One Direction singer Liam Payne had died unexpectedly and tragically at the age of 31 in Argentina. We think most people have felt this is quite seismic, and wanted to look at how the coverage of this has seemed and felt so far, both in the papers and on social media. Is it time for there to be a reckoning with how we deal with celebrity death? You can skip to roughly 37 minutes if you want to skip this section. As a pop culture podcast we also had to cover this week's lighter stories, including the show of the moment we're all tuning in for, the BONKBUSTER that is Rivals. If you’re looking for a rollicking good romp in Rutshire, then look no further, Jilly Cooper’s 1988 novel has been adapted into a TV series, now streaming on Disney plus. And lastly, Daniel Felsenthal wrote a piece for The Guardian titled ‘I’m 33 and my husband is 77 - this is why I only sleep with older men”, is the age-gap discourse ever going to be put to bed?

Disastrous Dentistry, Kaotic Cancellations and Living In A Post-Lingerie World
This week on pod, The Three Musketeers are back together. Beth, Ruchira and Oenone soldier through the battlefield of streaming services, why is it that Netflix loves to cancel shows in their infancy? We want to fight them! Kaos might not have reached number one on Netflix's charts, but it certainly has become beloved to everyone who has plunged their eyeballs into the reimagined Greek Mythology. The action centres around various prophecies, relationships and quests as Zeus tries to prevent the fall of his powerful family. It’s inventive, it’s sexy, it’s dramatic, it’s different. And now it’s done. Next up - how far are you willing to go for a good smile? A piece in the Guardian this week dives into the world of veneers, specifically why cosmetic dentistry is such a booming industry and what happens when the pursuit for perfect teeth goes horrifically wrong. It’s clear there’s a booming popularity in getting picture-perfect teeth, but would you go for veneers? Does it appeal to you? Lastly, after a 6 year hiatus, The iconic display of Angels is back -The Victoria’s Secret’s catwalk show took place for the first time since 2018 - we ask, Is there a place for the Victoria’s Secret Show in 2024?

The Substance, Podcasting Presidents & Posting Your Partner
This week on the pod, Ruchira and Beth are taking The Substance! Taking it for a spin around the content playground, that is. We discuss whether Mubi’s latest film release is a feminist masterpiece, or just a mess of blood, guts and big fake boobs. Did we love it, hate it or rush out of the cinema retching before it was over? Listen to find out! Next up is the Kamala Harris x Call Her Daddy interview which saw the Vice President get stuck into women's issues with Gen Z podcasting powerhouse Alex Cooper. Genius masterstroke by a savvy Gen Z campaign team or potential PR disaster for everyone involved? Finally, we debate the age old internet question: should you be posting your partner on your social media or has Lana Del Rey done it right by keeping her relationship under wraps until she was halfway down the aisle? If you have anything you want to add to this week’s episode then we insist that you tell us immediately on Instagram @everythingiscontentpod.

Intermezzo, Skinny Characters & Publishing Unpacked
It's Sally Rooney week here at Everything is Content! Beth, Ruchira and Oenone dive into their pop culture recommendations from the week, before plunging into the biggest literary event of the year: Sally Rooney's new novel Intermezzo. So, how good is it? The girls answer that core question, and dissect just how compelling her male characters are. The chat is fairly spoiler free, but do skip onto the next segment around the 30 minute mark if you want to be extra cautious. Next-up, discourse around Rooney and her mostly thin characters was firing up the timeline even before Intermezzo dropped. Just how justified are these arguments against the alleged "great millennial writer" of our time? Finally, what can we learn from Rooney's astonishing success when it comes to publishing at large? Do other diverse writers get the same chances for global stardom? Want to keep the conversation going? You can message us on our socials.

Concert Etiquette, Passport Bros & The "Skinny Influencer"
This week it’s our beloved Oenone’s turn to be ill- she was very missed but the show went on with Ruchira and Beth getting stuck into the debate about modern concert etiquette after a viral call out after a Chappell Roan gig. Are we forgetting how to behave at events or are times simply changing? Next up is Jamali Maddix’s documentary on so-called ‘passport bros’ who encourage young men to travel to South America to find better lives and better wives. A sinister male MLM in the making or just a passing fad- we discuss. And lastly The New York Times investigated a ‘Skinny Influencer’ after she was banned from TikTok for videos that some believe encourage disordered eating. Is this a move in the right direction or social media censorship? And why can't we escape the cult of thinness? This final conversation contains potentially triggering mention of eating disorders and diet culture, so please listen with care.

Cutting Off Your Parents, Chaos-Queen Jemima Kirke & Will & Harper
Gorgeous babe Beth is ill this week, so Oenone and Ruchira steer the content ship into port. The pair dive into Netflix's new documentary starring funny-man Will Ferrell and his long-time bestie and collaborator, Harper Steele. The documentary makes for a tearful, moving examination of friendship, allyship, and what it means to be a trans woman in the US. Grab your tissues before watching! Next-up, Vogue dropped a new series starting with a day-in-the-life as actress, artist and it girl Jemima Kirke. At one point she writes that she's bought a kitten and is yet to deliver it to a friend. Why do we love knowing the unusual details of a celeb's life? And finally, a New Yorker piece takes a 360-view of a rising trend of people going 'no-contact' with their parents. Ruchira and Oenone discuss whether we can learn anything about how to navigate difficult family relationships from the piece, and if our views on family estrangement have changed after reading it.
