Bang On #226: Don’t Worry Darling, Teenage Dirtbags, The Bear
What a smorgasbord this week has been. Grab the popcorn, Myf Warhurst and Zan Rowe are going in.
If you’re confused about all the hullabaloo around Olivia Wilde’s new film Don’t Worry Darling, don’t worry – we were too. We explain it all, and debrief on what’s driving this ferocious hunger for gossip.
A Reddit thread on sex soundtracks has the internet heaving, while Kim Kardashian’s bum makes the front page again. And why are famous folks sharing hot pics of themselves as teenage dirtbags?
We debrief on the Raising Their Voices report too, and talk about what comes next in the Australian music industry. And it’s an epic Fashun update off the back of the Venice Film Festival.
Everyone is watching and talking about The Bear too, so much so that for the first time ever we do a dual bang on about this high tension new dramedy with a great soundtrack.
