If there's one conspiracy theory we can get behind - it's the Lea Michele not being able to read one. That's right, our lives have turned into a Glee episode and in the coming weeks Lea will be replacing Beanie Feldstein as the lead in Funn Girl on Broadway! This is the ~drama~ we live for. Adding to the dramatics of this week, the Bachelorette is BACK with double the bachelorettes and double the chaos. Hot take, this episode one has been better than pretty much all of...
Everyone, One Direction has emerged from the dead to give us an action-packed, dramatic episode! Liam Payne has bamboozled, surprised, and angered us with his Logan Paul podcast antics - we're still wondering which member caught those hands backstage! On the other hand, Harry Styles continues to thrive with the album of the summer!! Unfortunately, the AMEX presale for his tickets did take a few years off our lives but we snagged them :)) Now we're just waiting for Niall to release...
Today we present a LONG-awaited post!!! This episode is a couple of weeks old, but big things have been happening and we're excited to get back into the swing of things!! The Christine Quinn debate continues as Selling Sunset comes to a close alongside the end of The Ultimatum - two Netflix shows we will be campaigning for, for years to come!!! Also our entire Met gala breakdown from Maeve's in-person perspective and Anna's fyp :) Blake Lively has once again taken the crown and Maeve th...
Our favorite realtors are back!!! And they are in the craziest outfits ever. We have our differing opinions on Christine but have to acknowledge her commitment to the villian bit! Let us know all of your Selling Sunset thoughts and we'll get back to you with all of our thoughts on the reunion :)) Harry Styles is also in his active era now! Mr. Coachella, album release, Shanai Twain stan HIMSELF is back and we are here for it!! We'll be sure to give you all our thoughts on Harry's ...
And now....to the Grammys!!! While Kourtney and Travis were there they did not upstage Bennifer so we forgive them - for now. From Billie to Olivia to Lady Gaga, we lay out all our thoughts on the show here; plus our A-list/D-list at the end of the episode!!
Welcome to part one in this special two-part episode week!! Kicking it off with a bang as we breakdown the news of the Bennifer engagement...they heard MGK and Megan Fox were giving them a run for their money and said hold my beer! We did indeed sacrifice our inboxes for the special JLo newsletter to get the exclusive on the engagement and once again miss Jenny From the Block did not disappoint with her descriptors! Bennifer is back with a vengeance - give this first part a listen!! *team Jen...
So guys, nothing really happened at the Oscars...nothing at all! That being said we, of course, found a way to talk about everything - from Amy Schumer, to Timothee Chalamet, to the ~infamous~ slap heard around the Hollywood Theater, we've covered it all! This is your dedicated Oscars recap episode with all of the hot takes Hollywood didn't ask for. Sit back, relax and enjoy the show - just like Nicole Kidman in her AMC ad :) !
Anne Hathaway's Les Mis acceptance speech lives rent-free in Maeve's mind and we hope it does in your mind too! Another week of 2022 down and another week closer to Oscar Sunday - this is OUR SuperBowl :)) Clayton's season has thankfully ended and - hot take - was not that dramatic of an ending, but we're just over here, hands raised, wondering how a double Bachelorette season is going to work!! In the meantime, Maeve may start listening to BFFS Pod, but very reluctantly - Brianna...
There could be 100 people in a room and 99 won't believe in you, but there's always one - and that one is us combined always surprised at Lady Gaga's acting abilities! The Oscars are coming up just as Clayton's journey is coming to a close. From the Sam Elliott/Power of the Dog controversy to love for Belfast and Julia Roberts slander, we've got all the movie buzz you need this episode. Of course, this wouldn't be complete without a complete look at the new Kimye drama - but we're...
Congrats to the LA Rams on their Super Bowl win! Neither of us is a fan we just don't really like Joe Burrow's style (we know, we know, controversial) !! In other news, Julia Fox and Kanye West broke up, not before she had the chance to get her bag and you know what good for her. We are still asking what a muse is, but we do know now Josh Safdie wrote Uncut Gems, so that's something! For the DBQ (please tell us you get this reference) we're breaking down the first nine...
Oscar nominations are here as if we needed another reason to break down niche celebrities' acting performances!!! Kristin Stewart, Denzel Washington and Bradley Cooper (who it turns out Anna doesn't like ://) all made the cut in the acting categories, along with a lengthy list of Best Picture nominees we will be diving into. In more pop culture news, the Kim and Kanye drama continues to heat up and we continue to take Kim's side in the divorce! The Winter Olympics are here and Ma...
The Kimye drama has hit an all-time high and we're standing firmly with team Kim! From drama on Tik Tok to shared texts on Instagram, this feud doesn't look like it's ending any time soon and we'll be covering every piece of it. In other news, Rihanna is pregnant and while we're thrilled it still has us asking WHERE IS THE ALBUM!!! Tom Brady has officially retired from the NFL and we do not hold back our thoughts about the GOAT (of football) and his retirement announcement; we're also s...
Guys, it's official, Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox have peaked as the most annoying celebrity couple with the announcement of their engagement; we offered some great wedding ideas for them hopefully they give us a listen! Even though we're still hung up on Machine Megan Kelly's Instagram captions (give them a read) we wouldn't deprive you of the celebrity breakup gossip - Lisa Bonet and Jason Momoa - or celebrity baby gossip - Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra welcoming a baby via surrog...
We've done our Useless Knowledge duty and watched The Hype House on Netflix so you don't have to (and we secretly can't wait for season two)! In other TV news, Clayton's second episode far exceeded his first, Emily in Paris is renewed for seasons three and four, and Euphoria high is back in session (if they're even going to school anymore). It's not a useless knowledge episode without celebrity couples and this week's discussion included Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello unfortunat...
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! We're back and celebrating the almost one-year anniversary of useless knowledge; thanks to everyone for sticking it out the whole year!!! We're not even a week into 2022 and we already have all the drama for you. From the Kardashian's endless amount of convo-worthy drama to Clayton's confusing season of the Bachelor, to the delivery of baby Munn-laney, 2022 is shaping up to be a dramatic year and we have all the hot takes you need. We even brought a new segment i...
Get your booster ladies and gents!!! Your favorite podcasters are boosted and we want you to be too! In other news, Ben Affleck has unfortunately decided to return to the news cycle alongside everyone's "favorite" Kardashian boyfriend, Tristan Thompson and Michelle's men are dwindling (RIP Joe :((( )! The Men Tell All gave us all the drama lacking from Michelle's incredibly well-managed season and showed us just how produced reality TV can be. Check back in for our fin...
It's finals season and that means it's time for another study guide! In social studies, we'll be breaking down Michelle's final four and our thoughts on this season's drama and our ~new Bachelor~ Clayton. Bachelor nation gave us TONS of content last week, so prepare yourself for a pop quiz! Shifting into history, we discuss the Jennifer Lawrence Effect, or so it has been dubbed by Useless Knowledge Pod :) and how it's impacting Emily Mariko on Tik Tok, right now. You m...
We're back - and we mean it this time...hopefully! It's been a heck of a month with a job hunt, move and different time zone, but we wouldn't leave you without a solid breakdown of the past month of pop culture! Michelle's Bachelorette season is underway and we have a lot of thoughts as usual. Taylor Swift re-released Red and we are all too unwell like the rest of the universe - how you feeling Jakey G??? We even dish our thoughts on Kim K and Pete Davidson because WHAT is P...
Ladies and gentlemen, it's official, Bennifer has been moved to second place in our annoyance ranking of celebrity couples, and the pairing of Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox has taken the cake. This episode includes deep dive into the GQ piece recently done on Megan and the Machine (couple name anyone???), the recent Little Mix drama, Adele's upcoming album and a passionate assessment of Kim K's SNL performance! We'll keep our eyes peeled for Bennifer content to bring them back t...
Paradise has officially come to a close and Neil Lane has tripled the size of his bank account; did you see those engagement rings!!!
