TV's cultural reckoning is here & it's a good time to be alive (& have a microphone)

That's Showbiz Baby!

In our biggest (literally, our longest) episode yet, we dive headfirst into the Breaker that stole the Olympics, Raygun. From the murky qualification process to the absurd dance moves, it all just feels a little off for us. But somehow the Australian Olympic Committee is trying to convince us that WE are the arseholes.

Speaking of arseholes, Alex has been trolled in the comments on the Daily Mail & of course Jordy performs a dramatic reading (any chance to practice her craft right?) We discuss Sam Armytage's surprise endorsement of our pod, but then come to the conclusion that we're actually not surprised at all. Classic us...

We add to the dumpster fire that is Channel 7 when ex-reporter Talitha Cummins drops by. Talitha shares how the pressures of showbiz contributed to her alcoholism & why she walked away from the industry (but not in too much detail, because, NDA). It was delightful to hear how Talitha has rediscovered herself & a passion in the diamond industry.

We touch on the 4 Corners report on Channel 7's heinous culture & though we both felt deeply confronted, we weren't in the slightest bit surprised.

Stay tuned as we keep waving the flag for better treatment and a deep clean of the industry. We'll be sharing more of our own juicy stories, and calling on YOU to share yours. DM us @thatsshowbizbaby.pod or email [e-mail]
