We're back out of retirement! And we're back with a BANG. Feeling nostalgic for 2020? Well, look no further. On this episode of Yapping, pretty much everything we say could get us cancelled by angry stan Twitter mobs. But we're not afraid to say the controversial truth about how terrible some films are and how certain pop girlies' careers are taking hard nosedives because they're just trying too hard. But, do not despair, we're not only gays with an opinion (who will let you know about it!), we also give a lot of good recommendations throughout the way, because here at Yapping, we care about YOU, dear listeners. So, what are you waiting for? Quit gooning to Heated Rivalry and click play on this episode! (or do both at the same time, we don't judge... that much.)

Ugh music is so good. Music is power. Music is wow. I love music. Music speaks.

For the first time EVER in Yapping history, we are joined by not just one, but BOTH of our cohosts, Petar and Tobias!

While we start by talking about our lives and new beginnings (as all 3 of us are starting our studies next month), we quickly spend the rest of the episode talking about our favorite music. From Madonna, to Charli XCX, to a 20 minute session of Samir and Tobias introducing Petar to Björk, we discuss all things gjööd mjüsic. We also talk a bit about our own personal connections to music, leading into discussing Lana Del Rey and Lorde, the bard of songwriting, Joanna Newsom, and the art pop girlies, Kate Bush, Fiona Apple and Tori Amos. Finally, we travel eastwards to the Balkans to talk about Azis and Marina Satti and all things Balkan music!

This is an episode of Yapping you do NOT want to miss! So what are you waiting for? DO click play! 😍

Do you ever Google your favorite indie musician, scroll down their Wikipedia page, and suddenly notice their parents’ names are highlighted in blue? Or that your favorite actress's parents have a trust fund and connections to the entertainment industry? Yeah, us too.

Tobias and Samir link up again, this time after having a bit too much to drink, and forgetting to hit record on one of the audio inputs, to talk about nepo babies in entertainment. We cover it all, from being condemned to poverty by Gracie Abrams, to King Princess pretending like she isn't the heiress to Macy's, and along the way we touch on artists like Mabel, who are rebranding themselves away from the nepo baby image, and how someone whose parents names are in blue on Wikipedia can have a successful career without being accused of being successful because of their parents. And, in true Yapping fashion, we get sidetracked about a thousand times along the way.

Pour yourself a latte your dad paid for, get comfy, and join us for a deep dive into the strange, blue-tinted ecosystem of pop culture’s most controversial children!
