  • The $200m Aussie Radio Death of Kyle & Jackie O
    2026/03/16

    After 27 years together, Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O — Australia's most dominant commercial FM breakfast duo — have finally parted ways. Jackie has declared she can no longer work with Kyle, who has been stood down for serious misconduct, and their $200 million, 10-year KIIS FM deal is now in tatters.

    We look back at how they built their partnership in Australian media, how they commanded eye-watering salaries that prime ministers and premiers couldn't afford to ignore, the failed Melbourne expansion that quietly began unravelling the whole machine, and what their spectacular split means for legacy commercial radio, and where the industry goes from here.

    2026/03/09
    We’re venturing into the Skibidi-infested trenches of Generation Alpha to discover if these "iPad babies" are evolving into the most tech-fluent creative class in history or if they’re simply the first generation to have their frontal lobes successfully replaced by a 24-hour loop of algorithmic brain rot.

  • When the Famous Turn to GoFundMe
    2026/03/02

    Why on earth are the world’s most famous people haunting GoFundMe?


    We’ve seen a string of tragic headlines lately, from James Van Der Beek to Eric Dane, but in the wake of the sadness comes a strange new reality: your famous heroes are asking you to help them out financially. Is this a genuine community safety net for those slipping through the cracks of a broken healthcare system, or have our parasocial relationships just turned even stranger?


    We ask the question more broadly: when is it okay to ask, what makes us feel we should give, and is there a better way of doing both?

  • Why Hollywood Men Wear Fake Packages
    2026/02/09

    We watched 28 Years Later and noticed something strange: the "naked" zombies aren't actually naked. Turns out 80-90% of what you see on screen is completely fake. From White Lotus to Euphoria to Pam & Tommy, Hollywood actors are wearing carefully crafted prosthetics instead of the real thing.


    Why the sudden shift? We investigate the rise of intimacy coordinators, the on-set rules that changed everything, and the surprising industry behind Hollywood's most realistic fake body parts.


    Discover how one Australian lawyer-turned-intimacy coordinator revolutionized filmmaking, why major productions now budget thousands for prosthetics, and what directors like Danny Boyle look for when selecting the "perfect" prosthetic for their alpha zombies.


    It's a fascinating look at how modern Hollywood balances artistic vision, actor comfort, and legal protection—all while keeping audiences fooled.
