Bang On #218: Beyoncé, Logies, Messy Millennial Women
It’s the return of Queen B, and we are bouncin’ to her new single and how perfectly it captures the moment.
Like all things Beyoncé, there are layers and layers, and we dig in.
Myf has been hitting the red carpet for the Logies, so we catch up on all the goss from TV’s night of nights.
An opinion piece on the popularity of “messy millennial women” on TV has caught our eye; is it becoming a trope? And we’re banging on about one of those series (lol), as well as the great music city of Nashville.
