After Charlie is done yelling at her smart speaker, on the agenda this week are misleading trailers and the dramatic change in gig etiquette.

Abi and Charlie discuss the new Leigh Miller biopic starring Kate Winslet, and how its own trailer has done it so dirty. Plus, we dive into the tweets that have lifted the lid on the insane world of gigs in 2024, the tradition that one Gen-Z had deemed “a Tik Tok trend” and what that says about our supposedly most savvy generation.

We start this week with people lazily posing at monuments and a review of the book of the summer, Big Swiss.

Charlie and Abi go on to discuss the audacity of Aaron Taylor-Johnson going out in public without his wedding ring, The Cut’s fascinating look in the money spent by women to look hot into their 60s and why ultimately we plan on being wrinkly but glamorous old women.

Of course, we also have our Cult of the Week which is, frankly, a food trend that must die.

Back from a brief break and in the throws of autumnal vibes, we’re catching you up on all things culture.

This week, Charlie and Abi share the TV they’re watching to prepare them for the incoming dark nights, their thoughts on Chappell Roan daring to set boundaries with her “creepy” fans and the cult of the week gets deep with a discussion about gender roles and gifting baby dolls to little girls.
