Bang On #282: Cowboy Carter, Ladies Lounge, Palm Royale
Myf and Zan are wrapping the week that was, and the countdown clock is set for Beyoncé's country album. We unpack her statement of intention, and an alternate cover for the record which shows she'll be educating us again with this release.
The case of a man not allowed in a Ladies Lounge at MONA has us fascinated, not least because the whole thing has become a work of art itself. And in the Netherlands a fish doorbell is being pushed via webcam all over the world. Don't worry, we'll explain.
We'll dive into the latest #KateGate theories and piccies too cos y'know, there's more. And we're banging on about HBO miniseries Love Has Won, and Apple TV series Palm Royale.
