To celebrate The Reheat's fifth anniversary, last week, we recorded a live episode of the show at Toronto's Book Bar! We also brought along our friends, Stacy Lee Kong of Friday Things, Chris Hanna of Film Me In, and Laura Hensley of That's My Opinion!. The result? A raucous panel on the state of popular culture. Is modern fandom sort of toxic? Is monoculture truly dead — and what's replaced it? What's the most unmissable reality TV right now? Why are book lovers referring to 2026 as The Year of The Memoir, and which celebrity memoirs should you be checking out of the library? We address all these burning questions and more.

To make the night even more special, we announced the start of The Reheat's new book club! Each month, we will select a new pop culture-y read to talk about on the show. Our book club pick for October is none other than You Know What You Did: The Hills, a retrospective of the groundbreaking reality show by Lisa Whittington-Hill!

A big thank you to all of our partners for the event, including Cheekbone Beauty, Doll Factory By Damzels, Ode Hotel Toronto, The Cookie Witch, and Zoe's Story Labs.
