#176 Britney, Sony, Starstruck

As we hit record, Britney Spears has just spoken publicly for the first time on her conservatorship and it’s effects on her. It’s a lot, and we dig in.

Meanwhile a toxic working environment at Sony Music Australia begs the question; has the reckoning we’ve been waiting for, begun?

A new edition of a masked dating show has us absolutely razzed, but not as much as Rose Matafeo’s new comedy series Starstruck which Myf has literally gone without sleep, to watch.

And Zan is banging on about something everyone was vibing on two years ago cos frankly, what is time?
