Films, viral long reads, Instagram scandals, celebrity nonsense, reality TV obsessions and TikTok trends- if you can post about it online, then we can (and will) turn it into discourse.


Every week, Beth, Ruchira and Oenone will delve into the biggest and splashiest pop culture stories, before weighing in on the conversations that they have ignited online. Why are we so interested in these stories? And what does this say about us as we try to navigate life in the "real" world?

Hello EIChihuahuas,We're back with a hot, steamy episode... Yes it's Heated Rivalry time!! We bravely tackle the series everyone in the US has already spoken about for months now (thank you HBO for edging the UK with a delayed release). Next-up, Jameela Jamil has been drawn into the Blake Lively/Justin Baldoni arena thanks to text messages between her and her PR agent becoming public knowledge. We weigh in on the situation and her response to it all.Finally we're back with some pop culture headlines and a live review of Cruz Beckham's music. Is he capable of becoming the most successful Beckham? THANK YOU for listening to us. Please could you gift us a review on your podcast player app and share us with a friend? Love O, R, B xxxIn partnership with Cue Podcasts.--------This week Ruchira reccomended Sentimental Value and Diabolical Lies. Beth reccomended Sorry Baby and Conclave.Do women love “Heated Rivalry” too much?Why Are Women Obsessing Over Gay Hockey Smut?Women are feral for Heated Rivalry.

Morning EICitizens! And welcome to the Republic of Content. On this week's docket...We head briefly over to Beverly Hills to discuss last Sunday's Golden Globes. What did we think of the winners and who do we deem the best dressed/worst behaved?Then we get stuck into Marty Supreme, Josh Safdie's new sports comedy-drama fronted by Timothée Chalamet. In it he plays ruthlessly ambitious Marty Mauser, a shoe salesman with grand plans to become the ping pong world champ. The film is getting rave reviews (and has just earned TC his very first Golden Globe)- but what did we think? Worth the hype or just another tired tale of a selfish man with big ambitions?Next up: Grok. 2026 started with mass digital violations, as huge numbers of women (and children) were targeted with deepfakes thanks to a new feature of Elon Musk’s AI tool which allowed digital undressing of real photos. As of this Wednesday Grok will apparently now ignore instructions to generate sexualised images, but we argue that the damage is already done. What do we think is behind this trend (spoiler: it's misogny) and what else should be done?Finally we investigate if people online are growing tired of content about useless male partners, especially if their wives and girlfriends won't listen. Comment threads are now full of the same sentiment: if you're not going to leave him, then leave us out if it. Is this a fair response? And does it speak to a cultural divide or just a digital one?Thank you SO MUCH for listening- as well as for your lovely messages and reviews. Please keep them coming as we love hearing from you and it helps us continue making the podcast. Love B, R, O xIn partnership with Cue Podcasts.........This week Beth was loving The Golden Globes coverage (e.g. the outfits), Ruchira was loving Industry (available on iPlayer in the UK and HBO elsewhere) and Oenone was loving Marty Supreme (in cinemas now!).The Hollywood Reporter - Timothée Chalamet and Josh Safdie: How We Made 'Marty Supreme'BBC - X could 'lose right to self-regulate', says StarmerThe Telegraph - Elon Musk's X stops bikini bot undressing womenThe Guardian - 'Add blood, forced smile': how Grok's nudification tool went viralBBC - Malaysia and Indonesia block Musk's Grok over explicit deepfakesDistractify - TikTok "Butter Dish Woman" Complains About Fiancé's Small Gift TikTok - The Original Single List Hosted on Acast.

Happy Hump Day EICamels. This week we're delving into the world of male-led podcasts, specifically, Steven Bartlett's.Last week, Instagram account @notyourpolitefeminist posted a carousel titled ‘The Diary Of A Misogynist’. Meredith writes, ‘The Diary of A CEO is often framed as thoughtful, emotionally intelligent, and progressive. it presents itself as a space for growth, vulnerability, and "having the hard conversations." And on the surface, that's exactly what it looks like: reflective language, slow pacing, men talking about feelings. but here's my problem with Bartlett, it stays focused on men's inner worlds - their fear, their insecurity, their unmet needs without really interrogating the systems that still benefit men even when they're struggling. The podcast leans heavily on therapy language: trauma, attachment, healing, vulnerability. but stripped of any feminist analysis, those words lose their power.’Steven Bartlett released the first episode of DOAC in September 2017, but what started out as a hobby, and ‘way to learn from other business leaders’, has grown to become one of the biggest podcasts in the world, last year it reached one billion streams. However alongside its astronomical success, has it slowly descended into something very different, and perhaps even dangerous?Thank you so much for all of your opinions and takes on this topic, we love being in conversation with you all.O, R, B xx@notyourpolitefeminist's post BBC InvestigationNew Statesman - Steven Bartlett's Empire of Bluff Hosted on Acast.

Hello EICherries. We imagine you're all quietly quitting your work obligations right now, as we slither towards the end of 2025... but today we're going to be talking about the women who are quietly quitting their husbands.What is quiet quitting a marriage? It’s the slow, silent retreat that often happens behind closed doors when one partner, often a woman in midlife, simply checks out. Despite the fact that divorce rates among older adults have climbed over the past few decades, countless couples are staying together, because separation feels too exhausting, too financially risky, or too disruptive to the lives they’ve built. And in many cases, their husbands don’t even realise how far things have drifted until it’s too late.Monica Corcoran Harel writes ‘Passivity came up again and again in my reporting: Husbands tune out their disenchanted wives like Charlie Brown deflects the monotonous drone of his schoolteacher. They make flimsy promises to engage more on an emotional level or to help out around the house. Maybe they vacuum for a month or two. Or act all intrigued when a partner vents about an incapable colleague. But eventually, the extra-credit effort falls by the wayside or just doesn’t feel like enough. In some cases, the man’s need to be lauded for taking on a fraction of the physical load only punctuates how much a woman has to accomplish every single day.’We get into it!Thank you so much for your takes on this topic, we love being in conversation with you all and hope you enjoy the episode, O,R,B xxThe Women Quietly Quitting Their Husbands Hosted on Acast.

Hello EICongregation! Welcome to content church!This week we're going into the depths of the discourse so that you don't have to. Charli XCX is getting heat for the quality of her newest Substack essay, Sydney Sweeney seems to be doing a 180 on her recent public attitude, fridges may or may not be sending people into psychosis- and we're breaking it down right here.Also in this episode: Oenone's algorithm has been hijacked by a sharp-jawed looksmaxxer called Clavicular. Confused? We've got you. Looksmaxxing is a subculture that emerged in incel forums and focuses on teaching men and boys how to optimise their appearance through grooming, cosmetic procedures and sometimes extreme lifestyle changes. We discuss the implications of this kind of content as it expands into the mainstream.And finally a woman in America is getting roasted up, down and side to side on the internet after proposing to her boyfriend of 14 years. She said: "I really wanna get married. We’ve been together for 14 years already. He hasn’t proposed....So why not?” The internet replied: BECAUSE WE SAID SO. We discuss her decision to flip the tradition and whether shaming her for getting down on one knee is just another way to police women and tell them if they aren't chosen with a diamond ring then they aren't worthy.We hope you enjoy this episode and if you do- please leave us a rating and a review on your podcast player app. Ciao! O, R, B xEdit in collaboration with Cue Podcasts.

Happy Wednesday EICarnivores* (consumers of meaty content, that is)This week we're asking: where are all the vegans? In this article for Dazed Laura Pitcher investigates the apparent decline in plant-based restaurants, food options, and people who openly identify as vegans, and asks whether this is related to a shift away from wokeness and empathy and towards conservatism and self-interest. Thank you so much for all of your amazing takes, we genuinely love hearing from all of you every week. If we can ask a final small(ish) favour, recommending us to a friend, leaving us a 5 star rating or writing a short review wherever you're reading this massively helps us to keep making the show.

Hey EICrackers, merry Friday...get ready for a magical, festive &... fatigued, episode!First up, Wicked For Good. We all went down the yellow brick road to the cinema to see the sequel. The story picks up after Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) has fled the Emerald City and been branded the "Wicked Witch of the West" by the Wizard (Jeff Goldblum) and Madame Morrible (Michelle Yeoh). Glinda (Ariana Grande), now "Glinda the Good," struggles with her public role as the Wizard's associate while her friendship with Elphaba is tested. The film focuses on their final journey to see each other with empathy and change Oz "for good". We get into it.Next! We don’t know if you've heard, but Christmas is coming. How do we know this? Because the annual supermarket/high street Christmas adverts have dropped in the UK. High street festive ads have become peak Christmas culture in the UK. For our non-UK listeners, Lena Dunham did a fairly good poke at this in Too Much with the John Lewis Rita Ora playing Santa ad. So this year, we’re going to take a look at some of the big ones that have dropped.And finally... from Christmas Ads to CHRIST, not another ad. In a piece on Substack, Hannah Glenn explores her own fatigue with advertising, in a world where everything and everyone seems to be trying to sell her something.

Happy Wednesday episode day, EIChuppaChups! 🍭This week we’re diving into the recent backlash to influencers charging luxury price points for their brands and products. It's not a new issue, but boy is the internet pissed off with some recent examples.Hannah Neeleman known best as Ballerina Farm, one of the most popular trad wife influencers, was hit with backlash for selling a $259 cutting board on her website. Meanwhile, The Girls Bathroom co-hosts Sophia Tuxford and Cinzia Baylis-Zullo launched their new lifestyle brand with a £110 robe, £60 candle and £45 slippers.

We ask – is this the internet-y, Gen Z series we've been gagging for?And finally, a piece in the Observer asked if raising our kids offline will soon became the new class barrier, with rich and priviledged people accessing this luxury far more easily than others.In partnership with Cue Podcasts.Thank you so much for listening to us <3 please do leave us a review wherever you're listening – it would make our weeks!

Hello EICritical Thinkers & happy humping day (or whatever the saying is).This week we're discussing the apparent mass-vanishing act of male authors, after a piece for The Guardian suggested that David Szalay's Booker win has "put masculinity back at the centre of literary fiction." Oh! Ok!In a rebuttal for Vogue, author and friend of the podcast Eliza Clarke argues that it’s time to put this debate to bed. She writes: “Male writers still continue to dominate literary awards. They make up a large portion of our bestsellers, all the while continuing to be viewed as more worthy and deserving of critical plaudits. Bernadine Evaristo remains the only Black woman to have won a Booker Prize, ever, and she had to share that win with Margaret Atwood.”With your help and takes we ask: is there any truth to it? And if so: what's driving women's dominion in literary fiction?Thanks for all of your thoughts as ever! Follow us on IG @everythingiscontentpod.

Hello EICherries 🍒 We're back with a fresh crop of content for you...Ryan Murphy's latest legal drama All's Fair has kickstarted the internet's incredible meme cycle. Just how bad is Kim Kardashian's pivot to acting? Why is she wearing a pencil skirt with exposed thong? And could this girlboss law firm series land itself into the camp canon? Next up, millenials are spending huge amounts on cosmetic work. A new Bustle piece speaks to the women convinced this is the natural outcome from never being able to afford a house. And finally Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey is back after selling the site to Elon Musk and essentially leaving it to metaphorically burn. Guess what... he's now bringing back Vine, the original and beloved video-sharing platform that unexpectedly shut down in 2017. Is he the saviour we need or is this something more sinister?Thank you so much for listening <3 O, R, B xoxoIn partnership with Cue Podcasts.-----This week, Ruchira has been loving Bugonia and Princess Mononoke.

Hey EIClass! Open your pencil cases, notepads, and ears!This week’s episode is brought to you by Get Into Teaching, and we’re joined by someone very special: Chemistry teacher Charlotte McColl… who also happens to be our very own Beth’s big sister.We loved picking Charlotte’s brain about what teaching actually looks like day to day, the creativity it demands, the surprises it brings, why 'six–seven' is so confusing (we're still confused), and so much more. There’s even a little pop-culture pop quiz, so feel free to play along at home.Our conversation was a reminder that a career in teaching doesn’t just shape the next generation — it transforms the teacher too.Turn your passion into your profession.

Hey EIChihuahuas, happy Friday! To celebrate, we gift you a brand new episode, kisses.This week on the podcast it’s just Oenone & Beth steering the content ship through the choppy waters of: The Real Housewives of London, the biblical new release from Rosalía, & a controversial new celebrity skincare line.First... Real housewives of London premiered this summer, with many curious as to how this beloved show would fare across the Atlantic. The series follows eight women navigating London’s ultra-wealthy social circles, balancing old money, new money, & country piles. There’s glamorous events, designer drama, & class tensions with the expected Housewives mix of alliances, gossip, & fallouts. The series sees the women get into blows over some dubious dentistry aka teeth-gate, renting outfits, not picking up the bill & the definition of ‘best friend’. We share our thoughts on the series & the explosive two-parter reunion.Next up, on November 6 Pretty Little Liars star Shay Mitchell launched a new line of sheet masks for children. Everyone’s writing about it from Glamour, to Marie Claire, The New York post & The Metro, & not an insignificant number of you guys in our DMs, too. So is this a dystopian nightmare, or just a bit of harmless fun that’s been blown out of proportion?And last but by no means least, an album hotly anticipated globally, but also very much on this podcast, & that is LUX, the fourth record by Spanish singer and songwriter Rosalía. According to Pitchfork it’s “a heartfelt offering of avant-garde classical pop that roars through genre, romance, and religion”. The BBC called it “radical and riveting” & NME said it’s “an arresting album of astonishing scope and ambition”. The 33 year old, who is a trained Flamenco singer, sings in 13 different languages on the album, including Japanese, Arabic, Portuguese, Latin and Sicilian, and worked for a year writing the lyrics and working with professional translators to make sure they were just right. It is receiving an avalanche of five star reviews for artistry, composition, narrative, lyrics. The album is now out, we’ve both listened to it... We’re by no means musical experts, but we give our thoughts.Thank you so much to Cue podcasts for the edit.Beth's been loving: Shirley Valentine, The Missing KayakerOenone's been loving: Loren Ipsum, Andrew GallixReal Housewives Of LondonShay Mitchell statement on RiniWhat Dermatologists Really Think About Sheet Masks for Toddlers - Rosalía Has Biggest Streaming Debut of Any Female Spanish-Language Artist on Spotify love ya O, R, B xx Hosted on Acast.

Happy Wednesday EICuties! This week it's something a little bit special- Everything Is Content went on tour! For this week's midweek episode we went to Sadler's Wells East in Stratford, a brand new theatre for dance, that is (in their words) "home to everything from hip hop to ballet, rave to rhumba and kathak to krumping."For this week's content school trip we were toured around Sadler's Wells East by dance artist Liam Riddick, who talks us through the basics of ballet, Sadler's Wells' ethos, the future (and past) of dance and why the aesthetics of this dance has been so pervasive in today's wider culture.Thanks for listening!

TGIF! This week on Everything Is Content... a viral article, chaotic reality TV and rumours of yet another celebrity face lift.First up, if you've not read Chanté Joseph's mega viral Vogue article titled Is Having A Boyfriend Embarrassing Now? then you've definitely seen the discourse. Julia Fox has weighed in (she says it is) and now it's our turn. We ask: what did we make of the piece, do we think this is an IRL phenomenon or strictly an online shift, and what do we think is behind it?Secondly we're back in LA LA land for a brand new series of Selling Sunset. Ruchira finished it in 3 days, Beth in 2 and we're all obsessed. We discuss the inherent toxicity of reality TV, this series' houses and whether we like seeing behind the curtain on these kind of shows.And last but not least, rumours of cosmetic surgery have been swirling around Emma Stone for the last few months and people are feeling a type of way about it. But is that fair? Can we reasonably feel disappointed when our fav female stars decide to opt out of growing older naturally or is it simply none of our business?Thank you SO much for listening this week and every week. Pleeease could you gift us a review on your podcast player app so other people can find us? We adore everyone who has already.

Hello EICuties! Due to circumstances beyond our control we were unable to release our planned episode, and so we've wound the clock back to April 2024 with a re-release of one of our favourite topics... age gap discourse and the time the internet was set alight by an essay in The Cut about a relationship between a younger woman and a slightly older man. What's our general perception of age gaps in relationships, is the tide changing and what did we think of the piece itself?Thanks so much for your understanding and don't worry- we'll be back with you on Friday as usual with some juicy new takes and topics.
