Bang On #213: Eurovision debrief, Kendall’s cucumber, Meme culture
Myf has literally just landed, and is back to spill the tea on what went down at Eurovision.
Kendall Jenner’s cucumber cutting technique has the internet agog, and speaking of online pile ons we take a look at the bizarre meme-ing of the Amber Heard and Johnny Depp defamation trial.
It’s been a busy travel time for Myf and Zan, but of course we’ve made time for consuming culture! The brilliant TV series Hacks is back, Kendrick Lamar has a new album, and Myf used her long flight to finally watched House of Gucci. What did she think? You’ll have to listen to find out.
