A Note About Meghan Markle’s Downfall & The Celebrity Video That Made The World Recoil

Today we kick things off with a wild celeb-in-the-wild sighting that sparked major debate in one of Laura & Em's meetings. Alison Brie photographed cutting her husband Dave Franco’s toenails during a picnic. Intimate? Gross? Brilliant PR? We dig into what it means, especially with their new horror movie dropping.

Then, Netflix has released its official mid-year viewership data dump… The most-watched show of 2025 is one no one saw coming, but boy oh boy did it get the whole world talking... while Meghan Markle’s lifestyle series With Love, Meghan didn't exactly make waves. So what do the stats say about what people are actually watching?

Plus, an internet hyperfixation throwback. A new two part doco on the Brit Crew has dropped - a group of Youtubers that blew up the internet when Em was growing up... and she's desperate to tell Laura (and you) all the lore.
