Harry Styles’ boa, Meghan Thee Stallion’s wins, Beyonce’s record and Cardi B’s WAP were the talk of the 63rd Grammy Awards, broadcast in *unprecedented* fashion from Los Angeles with host Trevor Noah. BW + BL discuss the Grammys and the Oscar nominations, both out this week.
“What is grief, if not love persevering?” BL + BW consider how this line from Vision to Wanda resonates through the series finale of the MCU’s WandaVision. Sticking with TV, they chat with Naomi Higgins and Humyara Mahbub, two co-creators of the Gen Z adulting ABC series, Why Are You Like This.
And amid #MeToo arriving in Canberra, we look back at our 2019 interview with MeToo movement founder Tarana Burke.
