The Overshare Pamphlet

This episode is late again… and yes, I have a reason. I stayed up for the Super Bowl like I’m American or something.So this week is basically a pop culture buffet: I’m talking about Bad Bunny’s halftime show (iconic, important, and honestly needed in this current political mess), plus my thoughts on the actual game even though I know absolutely nothing about American football. Like… I’m here for vibes, not touchdowns.Then I get into Taylor Swift’s new “Opalite” music video — the cameos, the storyline, AND the gag of her debuting it on streaming platforms instead of YouTube first. Mother is always ten steps ahead and it’s terrifying.I also talk about the new music I’ve been obsessed with lately, including the Tame Impala “Dracula” remix featuring Jennie (which is shockingly good??), and sombr’s new track “Homewrecker” which has me fully locked in.And obviously we finish with Songs of the Week — because I will never stop forcing my playlist on you.Enjoy, and I’ll see you next week… hopefully on a Monday. 😭Get 15% off your coffee on Afuera Coffee Co. with my code OVERSHAREPAMPHLETYou can follow me on Instagram and Threads @robscal.jpg, on TikTok @robscal.com and on Twitter @robscaltweets

The Grammys didn’t air on Monday, so this episode didn’t either. This week, I’m breaking down the 2026 Grammy Awards — reacting to the biggest wins, the biggest shocks, and how everything lined up with the predictions I made a few episodes back.I go through the major categories, from the general field to pop, dance, R&B, and rap, sharing my honest thoughts on who deserved their wins, who didn’t, and why this year’s ceremony felt a little… mid. We’re talking performances, snubs, fashion moments, and the interactions that actually made the night worth watching.I wrap things up with Songs of the Week, kicking off the February 2026 playlist with fresh pop, R&B, dance, and jazz picks.New month, new episode — and, as always, a lot of opinions.🛒 Eric Javits - Designer Hats Worn by Melania & Others💰 Get 20% OFF | Promo Code: OVERSHAREPAMPHLEThttps://ericjavits.com/discount/OVERSHAREPAMPHLETYou can follow me on Instagram and Threads @robscal.jpg, on TikTok @robscal.com and on Twitter @robscaltweets

It’s still Oscars Domination Week, so I’m breaking down the 2026 Oscar nominations and sharing who I think shouldwin vs. who I think will win. From major acting races to Best Picture, Director, and some truly baffling snubs (yes, we’re talking Wicked), this episode is full of hot takes, praise, and a little chaos.I also talk about Sinners’ historic nominations, horror finally getting recognition, and the films I can’t stop thinking about months later.

I’m finally doing it — I’m ranking all three High School Musical movies, and yes, this might ruin my life.As a lifelong HSM superfan, I break down which movie actually deserves the top spot, why the first one is still the blueprint, and where HSM 2 and Senior Year shine (and fall apart). Expect nostalgia, Sharpay Evans supremacy, chaotic hot takes, and strong opinions about iconic songs and missed opportunities.This episode is sponsored by Love Indus..

This week on The Overshare Pamphlet, I’m diving back into movie reviews with a deep, emotional look at Hamnet, the critically acclaimed new film directed by Chloé Zhao. With awards season officially underway, this film has been getting a lot of buzz — especially for Jesse Buckley’s incredible lead performance, which completely floored me.In the episode, I talk about how Hamnet reimagines the origins of Shakespeare’s Hamlet through grief, parenthood, and marriage, focusing on Agnes Hathaway and William Shakespeare as they navigate the loss of their son. What stayed with me most wasn’t the plot, but the emotional tone — the way the film captures loss so honestly and makes you feel it, even if you’ve never experienced something like it yourself.I also touch on Zhao’s stunning pastoral direction, the film’s themes of love, resentment, and healing, and why this might be one of my favorite performances of the year. To wrap things up, I share my Songs of the Week — three tracks I’ve had on repeat and can’t stop thinking about.Bring tissues.Get 25% off More Labs with the code OVERSHAREPAMPHLET https://www.morelabs.comYou can follow me on Instagram and Threads @robscal.jpg, on TikTok @robscal.com and on Twitter @robscaltweets

Happy New Year!In this episode, I’m kicking off 2026 with my official pop culture ins & outs — what I’m leaving firmly in 2025 and what I’m manifesting for the year ahead.From controversial internet figures and exhausted celebrity discourse, to trends I’m officially done pretending to enjoy, I break down the moments, people, and vibes I’m ready to move on from. On the flip side, I get into what I do want more of in 2026: new pop girl energy, Canadian cultural domination, a proper song of the summer, a 2010s-inspired music revival, exciting film moments, and long-awaited returns from some of my favorite artists.We also talk music trends, movies, TV, internet culture, fashion obsessions, and why 2026 might finally be the year pop culture feels fun again.Plus: Songs of the Week to start the year strong and a quick word from today’s sponsor - Klear Protein - you can access 20% off through this link: https://klearprotein.com/discount/OVERSHAREPAMPHLETNew episodes every Monday at 6 a.m. UK time.

I’m back from the holidays to talk about why Avengers: Doomsday has become the most searched movie of next year—and why so much is riding on it. With Marvel struggling post-Endgame and the superhero genre clearly facing burnout, this new Avengers film feels like a real make-or-break moment.I break down Marvel’s recent missteps, DC’s reboot, the return of legacy characters, Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom, and the surprisingly inventive marketing strategy that’s driving the hype.I also wrap up the episode with Songs of the Week, inspired by my Christmas trip to Lisbon, featuring music from the Heated Rivalry soundtrack plus French and Portuguese discoveries.Sponsor: Strong Coffee Company Get 20% off with code OVER SHARE PALM FLIT at strongcoffeecompany.com (https://strongcoffeecompany.com/discount/OVERSHAREPAMPHLET)You can follow me on Instagram and Threads @robscal.jpg, on TikTok @robscal.com and on Twitter @robscaltweets

This week on The Overshare Pamphlet, I finally give in to my latest obsession: Heated Rivalry.With the season finale approaching, this episode is a mix of review, love letter, and pitch for anyone who hasn’t started the show yet. Five episodes in, Heated Rivalry has proven itself to be a modern TV standout — a rare series that’s completely captured the cultural conversation.I break down why the show works so well, from its underdog rise as a low-budget Canadian exclusive to its global success, and dive into the decade-spanning, slow-burn romance between rival hockey players Shane Hollander and Ilya Rosenov. We talk queerness, secrecy, ambition, emotional repression, and why the show’s portrayal of intimacy and vulnerability feels so powerful and addictive.I also explore why Heated Rivalry resonates across audiences, how it challenges hyper-masculine sports narratives, and why it feels like a true lightning-in-a-bottle moment for television.Plus, Songs of the Week, featuring standout tracks from the show’s soundtrack and beyond.New episodes every Monday at 6 a.m. UK time.This episode also features my new sponsor, Yarok Plant-Based Hair Care, and I’m giving Spotify listeners an exclusive 15% off their entire order.https://yarokhair.com/discount/OVERSHAREPAMPHLETYou can follow me on Instagram and Threads @robscal.jpg, on TikTok @robscal.com and on Twitter @robscaltweets

This week on The Overshare Pamphlet, I break down my first impressions of Taylor Swift’s new docu-series The End of an Era, released during her birthday week alongside the extended Eras Tour film.I talk about what the series gets right — the scale, preparation, and emotional weight of the tour — and where it feels overly curated, repetitive, or hesitant to explore discomfort and burnout. I also share what I’m hoping to see in the remaining episodes.Plus, Songs of the Week featuring Maisie Peters, Tate McRae, Tiffany Stringer, Daya, and more.New episodes every Monday at 6 a.m. UK time.You can follow me on Instagram and Threads @robscal.jpg, on TikTok @robscal.com and on Twitter @robscaltweets🛒 Strong Coffee Company - Protein Coffee💰 Get 20% OFF | Promo Code: OVERSHAREPAMPHLEThttps://strongcoffeecompany.com/discount/OVERSHAREPAMPHLET

This week on The Overshare Pamphlet, I’m diving into the wild news that Netflix has won the bid to buy Warner Bros. The deal isn’t government-approved yet, but the fallout has already started — and honestly, it could change Hollywood in some pretty alarming ways.I break down how Warner Bros. ended up here, why Netflix wants this massive IP library so badly, and the huge antitrust concerns being raised by senators, unions, and major directors. I also get into what this merger could mean for theaters, smaller studios, streaming prices, and the future of movies as we know them.You’ll also hear my Songs of the Week — from Demi Lovato to Jesse Jo Stark, Elle Coves, and yes… my full Michael Bublé era — plus a quick shoutout to this week’s sponsor, AKILA.

In this week’s episode, I’m getting honest about something a lot of us are feeling: entertainment is starting to feel overwhelmingly mid. I break down why—from streaming platforms burying originality to Hollywood clinging to endless sequels, remakes, and nostalgia reboots. I talk about the industry’s growing fear of risk, how vertical integration has changed what we’re allowed to discover, and the rare films and shows that still manage to cut through the noise.I also dig into a recent tweet that sent me spiraling back into this topic, plus a Guardian article that perfectly captures Hollywood’s current slump. And of course, I share my Songs of the Week—a mix of warm, summery tracks and new finds that have been living rent-free in my head.This episode also features my new sponsor, Yarok Plant-Based Hair Care, and I’m giving Spotify listeners an exclusive 15% off their entire order. https://yarokhair.com/discount/OVERSHAREPAMPHLETIf you care about original storytelling, good music, and figuring out where entertainment is headed, this one’s for you.

In this week’s episode of The Overshare Pamphlet, I’m finally back after a short break, and I couldn’t wait to sit down and talk about one of the year’s biggest releases: Wicked: Part Two — Wicked For Good.This film picks up right where Part One left off, adapting the second half of the original stage musical—and it’s definitely the darker, sadder, and more emotionally complicated half. I get into why this chapter hits harder, how Glinda and Elphaba’s stories evolve, and the way the movie leans into themes like truth, propaganda, revolution, power, and moral ambiguity.I also break down how the tone, pacing, and structure differ from Part One, whether splitting the story really paid off, and yes… I even compare it to the Avengers two-part structure because honestly, it fits. And of course, I talk about the performances—Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, Jonathan Bailey, and the rest of the cast—plus the box office expectations and how loyal the film stays to the stage version.I wrap things up with Songs of the Week, including a few nostalgic favorites for Thanksgiving and some new picks.If you’ve already seen Wicked: Part Two—or you’re planning to—this episode is the perfect companion.

I share my honest reactions, predictions, and who I think truly deserves to take home the gold. Expect plenty of opinions, a little bit of chaos, and a lot of pop culture commentary.Then, I switch gears to talk about Lux, Rosalia’s newest album that’s shaking up the industry.

Welcome back to The Overshare Pamphlet! Today, we’re diving deep into the best albums of 2025 (so far).I know, I know… it’s early to be talking “Album of the Year” contenders, but the music nerd in me couldn’t resist. From Lorde’s Virgin to Addison Rae’s debut, Doja Cat’s ‘80s R&B experiment to Lady Gaga’s triumphant MAYHEM, I’m ranking my top 10 projects that defined this year in sound, vision, and pure vibes.We’ll talk about standout tracks, creative risks, and why some albums hit harder than others — plus, a few predictions for Grammy season. Whether you’re into K-pop innovation, cinematic R&B, or chaotic pop perfection, this list has something for you.Grab your headphones, maybe a can of Aspire (shoutout to our sponsor!), and let’s rank, rave, and overanalyze — because that’s what we do best.You can follow me on Instagram and Threads @robscal.jpg, on TikTok @robscal.com and on Twitter @robscaltweetsGet 20% off on green tea-powered energy drinks at ASPIRE® Healthy Energy:https://shop.aspiredrinks.com/discount/OVERSHAREPAMPHLET

I’m finally back with an album review — and what a comeback it is. This week, I dive deep into West End Girl, the brand-new album from Lily Allen, which has completely blown me away. Written and recorded in just ten days, this project is raw, emotional, and beautifully cohesive — a powerful reflection on her split from David Harbour and the complexities of modern relationships, infidelity, and self-worth.In this episode, I take you through the album track by track, unpacking how Lily crafts one of the most compelling narratives I’ve heard in years. From the heartbreak of “West End Girl” and “Ruminating” to the biting honesty of “Tennis,” “Madeline,” and “Nonmonogamummy,” all the way to the cathartic closer “Fruity Loop,” this record feels like her most personal and complete body of work yet.For me, West End Girl is Lily Allen’s Melodrama — or her Lemonade. It’s storytelling at its finest, and it’s restored my faith in the art of the cohesive album. I talk about why this record hit me so hard, why I think it’s the best of the year, and how it manages to turn heartbreak into something liberating and profound.Takeaway: In a year that’s felt creatively flat, Lily Allen’s West End Girl reminded me that honesty and emotion still cut through — and I can’t wait for you to hear why.You can follow me on Instagram and Threads @robscal.jpg, on TikTok @robscal.com and on Twitter @robscaltweetsGet 15% off on your matcha at Mantra Matcha:https://mantramatcha.com/discount/OVERSHAREPAMPHLET

In this week’s episode of The Overshare Pamphlet, I’m switching things up a bit. Instead of my usual deep dives into music and internet culture, I’m talking about the fast-approaching 2025 awards season — and honestly, what a weird year it’s been for entertainment. Between algorithms fracturing audiences and the lack of true breakout hits, it feels like no one’s watching or listening to the same thing anymore.I share my thoughts on the big Oscar contenders — from Sinners and One Battle After Another to Wicked: Part Two — plus some under-the-radar picks like Hamnet and Marty Supreme. I also chat about what this year says about where movies (and pop culture in general) are heading, and why it’s getting harder to create real cultural “moments.”And of course, I couldn’t end without my Songs of the Week — with new favorites from Carly Rae Jepsen, PinkPantheress and Zara Larsson, Kim Petras, and Kim Lip. Expect plenty of opinions, some passionate rants, and a few hot takes along the way.Grab your morning coffee — or an Aspire Healthy Energy if you’re feeling fancy — and let’s dive into the chaos that is Hollywood’s award season.You can follow me on Instagram and Threads @robscal.jpg, on TikTok @robscal.com and on Twitter @robscaltweetsGet 20% off on green tea-powered energy drinks at ASPIRE® Healthy Energy:https://shop.aspiredrinks.com/discount/OVERSHAREPAMPHLET

On September 10, 2025, Charlie Kirk — one of the most influential and controversial figures of America’s far-right politics — was fatally shot during a Turning Point USA debate event in Utah. His assassination has shocked the political world, sparking international reactions, renewed debates on gun violence, and, inevitably, a wave of conspiracies.In this episode, we take a closer look at who Charlie Kirk was, why his death matters for U.S. politics, and how his legacy shapes the MAGA movement. We’ll explore the narratives emerging from both the left and right, including surprising claims from Kirk’s longtime ally Candace Owens, who is raising questions about the role of Netanyahu, Israel, and the U.S. government itself.While many details remain unclear — and speculation continues to run wild — this episode asks what Kirk’s assassination reveals about America’s current political climate, the rise of anti-establishment sentiment, and the dangerous crossroads of ideology, misinformation, and violence.You can follow me on Instagram and Threads @robscal.jpg, on TikTok @robscal.com and on Twitter @robscaltweetsGet 20% off on your protein powder at Klear Protein with my code below:https://klearprotein.com/discount/OVERSHAREPAMPHLET
