Hiya! Coming up on today’s show: “What about me?” That is the overwhelming theme within so many comment sections these days, and we wanted to deep it.

She needs a higher bar! Preach!

Hiya!  On today’s show: Louis Tomlinson’s interview on the DOAC might just be the best celebrity interview we’ve ever listened to, Dolly Parton posted a… proof-of-life video but more on that later, and we might have our ‘first egg on us for egging ourselves too early’ situation on our hands, because Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau very much look like a couple!!!! Then, we share some of Diane Keaton’s most iconic quotes after the news of her passing, and finally, why is Travis Kelce signing Taylor Swift’s CDs lol. This week, Zara recommended Louis Theroux interviewing Ed Sheeran. And here is the link to Louis Tomlinson on The Diary of a CEO. Big thanks to Bumble for making this episode possible.
