#162: Meghan and Harry, Cocaine Bear, WFH Pyjamas

There’s one big story in pop culture this week, and we are all in. The revelations, the racism, Piers, Oprah, the Empire, and Myf’s always sizzling takes on the Royal Family. We’re here for you

Elsewhere, a film called Cocaine Bear has been greenlit, and if that piqued your interest then wait till you hear what else we know about said bear.

A perfect pair of pyjama’s has been designed in Japan, and we’re banging on about some great reads (short and long form) from food writer Claire Dent and futurist musician David Byrne.
