    Hot Girl Scroll: Social Media Addiction Trial, Melania’s Robot & The Controversial App Axed

    2026/03/26 | 18 mins.
    From a landmark lawsuit on social media addiction to a humanoid robot making an appearance at the White House, the internet moves so fast that if you blink, you’ve missed half of it.
    This week, we’re unpacking the three tech stories you need to be across. We look at the Los Angeles jury that found Meta and Google liable for millions in damages, marking a massive win in the fight against app features designed to hook minors.
    Plus, we’re stepping inside the White House where Melania Trump has welcomed a human-shaped AI guest to pitch the future of 'robot teachers'.
    And, why has OpenAI suddenly pulled the plug on its viral video-generation tool, Sora? We’re joined by futurist Mark Pesce to unpack it all.

    Aussies Bracing For Supermarket Shock & Everything We Know About Bridgerton Season 5

    2026/03/25 | 22 mins.
    We’ve only just cooled down from the steamy fourth season of Bridgerton, but the next lead has officially been confirmed, and it’s a major departure from the original books.
    As speculation reaches a fever pitch, we’re indulging in everything we know about the much-anticipated fifth season.
    Today, we sit down with Grace Rouvray from the Watch Party podcast to unpack the reveal of Francesca Bridgerton and Michaela Stirling, exploring the internet’s reaction to the gender-swap and why the show decided to skip over Eloise for now.
    Plus, we investigate the future of Lady Whistledown and whether we’ll be waiting years for the next chapter of the ton to drop on Netflix
