Ep 83 – Hot Off The Press: Spare us, Brooklyn Beckham
On this week's Hot Off The Press, we discuss the relentless efforts of Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz to stay in the spotlight, the rumours surrounding hot White Lotus actors Walton Goggins and Aimee Lou Wood, and Halle Bailey's ongoing relationship strife and custody battle with ex worm DDG, along with the broader implications of domestic abuse in the public eye. It's a mixed bag today!

Ep 82 – Hot Off The Press: Is Hugh Jackman a cheater?!
On this week's Hot Off The Press, we discuss the rise of Canadian pop star Tate McCrae and side-eye her talent just a wee bit (but not her dancing, we love her dancing!). We also dive deep into Broadway gossip, which has been real hot this week, including Hugh Jackman's love life and his recent divorce, and the spicy feud between legends Patti LuPone and Audra McDonald, which includes examining the impact of race and privilege in the theatre community. Join us!

Ep 81 – How J.K. Rowling became the villain of her own story
On this week's Reheat, Sarah and Sadaf explore the rise and fall of J.K. Rowling, the cultural impact of the Harry Potter series, and the ongoing debate about separating the art from the artist. We dig deep into the reviled author's journey from a struggling author to a literary icon, the backlash against her ugly views, and the complexities faced by fans who grew up with her work. Also: Sarah reveals she is a Hufflepuff. Yikes.

Ep 80 – Hot Off The Press: The white folks were a travesty at this year’s Met Gala
On this week's Hot Off The Press, we dissect two ends of the cultural spectrum: the Met Gala (which we loved, from theme to looks) and the announcement of the new pope (who we do not love, sorry Leo XIV). You'll also hear Sarah's line of the week: "I love conclaves!"

Ep 79 – Is Elisabeth Moss the queen of all Scientologists?
Today, we're diving deep into the eccentricities of one Elisabeth Moss, the star behind such feminist-forward series as Mad Men and The Handmaid's Tale, and how her not so low-key Scientologist life contradicts her choice of roles, and how her love life only makes things...more questionable. Really, though, we just devolve into raving about our love of Mad Men. Why not?!

Ep 78 – Hot Off The Press: Are Barack and Michelle Obama breaking up?!
On this edition of Hot Off The Press, we debate whether there's fuel to the Obama split rumours, and what a single Barry and Michelle would even look like. We also then make a hard pivot and ponder how Conclave predicted current politics, and why Wendy's is in an internet spat with, um, Katy Perry. YUP.

Ep 77 – Will the Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber love triangle ever end?
Today we’re serving up one of the most chaotic, drawn-out, and fan-fueled sagas in celebrity history: the tangled love triangle between Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez, and Hailey Baldwin—now Hailey Bieber. Now, this isn’t just a love story. It’s a case study in internet culture, parasocial relationships, and what happens when fans turn romantic drama into full-blown conspiracy.

Ep 76 – Hot Off The Press: Was this season of White Lotus disappointing?
On this edition of Hot Off The Press, we dissect the Season 3 finale of HBO's The White Lotus, so, you know, spoiler alert! From the casting to the season theme to the many deaths, there's a lot to dig into. (Including Sadaf's love for Walton Goggins, side-eyed by Sarah.) We also make a few TV suggestions if you're now left with a gap in your weekend. You're welcome!

Ep 75 – The many scandals and stories surrounding Gossip Girl
This week, we go oh so deep into the world of Gossip Girl - how the show and its cast came to be, all the salacious affairs happening on- and off-camera, and what who we always rooted for says about us today. Oh, and Sarah pitches her sequel series. And it's good.

Ep 74 – Hot Off The Press: Why we're Team Rachel Zegler
On this week's episode of Hot Off The Press, we tear Disney apart, just like the studio tried to take down Snow White Rachel Zegler for her pro-Palestine stance. And, of course, Celine Song's new film, The Materialists, which dropped its trailer this week. Oh and...is Sydney Sweeney single? And what does that mean...for Hollywood?!
