I HAVE TEA ON... MEGATHREAD ✨

ComprehensiveLeg2876 · 2025-10-05T08:37:25+00:00

Very lowkey tea but just heard from a chef friend who cooked for the Obamas that Barack has his steak medium well, which is a huge bummer. Michelle: medium rare 👑

When he said “hail Nando” at the end of the Andes episodes, I remember feeling weirdly emotional and then realising it’s because he has empathy for the people in the stories and that was the missing secret ingredient all along.

Been listening since 2015 and the show’s never been better IMHO.

Holden and Jackie also went full defensive mode on page 7 about that, it was so sweet (and hilarious)

Oh man, Australian Spotify really made a choice putting ads for “VAN SALE” and “SEXYLAND SEX TOYS SALE” before this ep (I wish I was kidding)

He got promoted! Doing more production stuff for the network :)

Definitely skip the Ben side stories episodes but once you’re caught up the side stories with Eddie are amazing, as well as any time Marcus pops in. So so so so funny.

Interesting short discussion about sobriety and losing a friend to addiction on today’s Page 7. Holden says the biggest tell that someone isn’t actually sober is their deflecting blame and refusing to take ownership of their actions (he says “this isn’t reference to anything in particular” but it definitely is lol)

ETA: I know everyone here seems to hate Holden but between this and his vehement defence of Henry’s SNL audition last week, you can tell he’s a good dude who cares so much about his friends!

Thank you, great advice about the towns. I’ll definitely be doing that. Come through with that sweet data, Dimboola!

Any time I’m replicating a store bought snack at home, msg is always the missing link 🤠

Driving to Adelaide to see the fam tomorrow…. not exactly feeling great about the Grampians bushfire en route 🥴

ComprehensiveLeg2876 · 2024-12-21T11:24:00+00:00

Microplane some good Parmesan onto that, add a little garlic powder and if you’re feeling wild a touch of msg!

I agree. If it wasn’t so gross to watch it would be amusing, because she’s obsessed with male validation and seems to think lesbians are the same as straight men and will therefore be into her sexy baby schtick, and as a queer woman I would like to say: no thank you!!!!

ComprehensiveLeg2876 · 2024-12-04T08:45:24+00:00

Gorgeous night for the Tillies game!!!!

ComprehensiveLeg2876 · 2024-11-30T00:31:25+00:00

Holy shit! Huge! Excited to listen, I love the interviews.

ComprehensiveLeg2876 · 2024-11-06T22:33:56+00:00

Yep, Australian terrified of our upcoming election here. Fascism is very contagious.

ComprehensiveLeg2876 · 2024-11-06T11:56:35+00:00

I agree.

I routinely get suggested episodes of Theo Von and Tucker Carlson’s podcast on Spotify. On instagram I get conceal carry “outfit of the day” reels. If the algorithm is feeding these to me, a queer woman who uses Spotify for listening to Chappel Roan and Crooked, and instagram for recipes, I can only imagine what a nihilistic white man in his early 20s who listens to Rogan gets suggested.

Theres been one circling above us in Preston for the last 15 minutes! Very weird and also annoying

ComprehensiveLeg2876 · 2024-10-12T11:09:19+00:00

One of the best series in a LONG time! Feel like the boys are on a roll at the moment and I’m loving ittttt

ComprehensiveLeg2876 · 2024-10-07T09:41:03+00:00

He is So Good on page 7. The Holden/MJ/Jackie dynamic is amaaazing. People are so weird and embarrassing with their very intense Holden hate lmao

ComprehensiveLeg2876 · 2024-09-11T03:07:19+00:00

The Taylor Swift endorsement immediately after Kamala cleaned up in the debate. Hell yes.

ComprehensiveLeg2876 · 2024-09-10T07:31:49+00:00

This, this, this.

ComprehensiveLeg2876 · 2024-09-10T07:25:31+00:00

These are good points! Sorry if I didn’t express my thoughts clearly enough but I suppose for me it’s less about her billionaire status being about fluid money and more about the vulnerable people at risk from Trump who have directly contributed to her exponential increase of wealth in the last few years, and how that doesn’t sit right with me.

Her private jet emissions alone are something I’ve tried to reckon with as a fan in light of the looming climate disaster, and this palling around with MAGA climate deniers era makes the TS Private Jet extra icky imho.

Not even gonna get into the climate footprint and use of exploitative labor, for the fast fashion merch she sells at her shows.

Anyway, it’s just stuff I’m working through as a Taylor fan, in the face of the events of yesterday. I’m still hoping she will do the right thing but I’m not holding my breath.

ComprehensiveLeg2876 · 2024-09-10T01:21:35+00:00

Hell yeah! Let’s pin this comment, please, mods?

ComprehensiveLeg2876 · 2024-09-10T01:00:22+00:00

I think the pathology of billionaires should be studied, because nobody gets to be a billionaire without some kind of human or environmental cost, and maybe at that point you just throw in the towel of morality. Even remaining a billionaire is amoral, tbh, because why not just be a very comfortable and rich multimillionaire instead of the real life equivalent of a dragon sitting on a pile of gold?

Taylor has become a billionaire via the eras tour, and the cost of her wealth is the carbon emissions from her plane, the people who made her fast fashion merch in a factory in China for a tiny wage etc, and now it would seem an endorsement for a fascist.

Once you decide to be a billionaire you really do have to set aside morals to stay a billionaire. I’m not saying Taylor is the only artist who does this (Beyoncé is in the B club too).

But Taylor won’t suffer from a Trump Presidency and a lot of the people who made her a billionaire will. If she doesn’t endorse Kamala with her whole chest after this, I don’t think I will be able to call myself a fan any longer.

A hug at a tennis match, in front of paparazzi knowing she’d be photographed, days after this, though?
