• Bonnie Blue's Glass Box Stunt & Blake Lively's Vindication

  Blake Lively has broken her silence on the It Ends With Us chaos, calling it “manufactured shame". With Justin Baldoni’s $614 million countersuit just dismissed, it’s validation for Lively — but the real drama’s not over till 2026. Mia, Jessie and Em Vernem discuss. Plus, Wife Guys. You’ve seen them online — gushing about their spouses like it’s their full-time job. Mia, Jessie and Em ask: is it wholesome... or a red flag? And finally, are we OK? Sydney Sweeney is selling 'vintage' soap made from her actual bath water, and Bonnie Blue was all set to launch a human petting zoo with herself as the star attraction — until Only Fans banned her. We unpack the trend of women turning themselves into brands and whether it’s empowerment to be proud of or something else that's far more troubling.

• LITTLE TREAT: The Money Pushover & A Woman Named Karen

  Outlouders, we’ve unlocked a juicy bonus episode for your long weekend listening pleasure. Why? Because Jessie drops some absolute gold in this one, and it’s simply too good to gatekeep. Are you that friend—the one who always pays the bill, then simmers in silent rage while your mates mysteriously 'forget' to transfer their share? The one who’d rather sell a kidney than send a “Hey, can you pay me back?” text? Congrats, you might be a money pushover. But don’t worry—today’s episode is basically therapy. One brave Outlouder shares her tale of financial frustration, and Jessie serves up a no-cringe guide to getting your money back without spiralling into an anxiety pit. PLUS: What do you do when your name becomes... a meme? Listener Karen has a full-blown identity crisis, and we have thoughts. Spoiler: changing your name isn’t off the table.
