The murder of a young Sydney couple has sent shockwaves through the country. How much media focus should be on the alleged perpetrator, a NSW policeman? And how do the queer community feel about police marching in Mardi Gras in Sydney this weekend?

Plus, Jennifer Lopez’s new “film” This Is Me… Now (emphasis on the …) is the fever dream that no one, including Ben Affleck, asked for. Obviously, Mia and Holly watched it so you don’t have to.

And, there’s a woman on TikTok who’s turned her toxic relationship into a 52-part video series about who TF she married. She’s being hailed as the storyteller of our generation. So, why is the world so obsessed with Reesa Tessa?
