| #61 - ‘Wicked’ Press Tour, Short n’ Sweet Recap, Jake Paul/Mike Tyson Fight, Reality Recap | 18 nov. 2024 | 01:05:51 | |
We’re done fighting the allegations…this is officially a Wicked podcast. The marketing continues to work its magic (no pun intended) and left us no choice but to discuss the Wicked press tour that was should’ve been sponsored by Kleenex (00:00:56-00:18:48). Audrey recaps Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet tour (00:18:48-00:26:16) and the less eventful Jake Paul and Mike Tyson fight (00:31:07-00:39:20). We discuss Charli XCX’s hosting debut on SNL (00:43:43-00:49:52) and catch up on our favorite show, Survivor (00:49:53-01:03:15). Sprinkled in throughout the episode are deep discussions about state capitals and traumatic volleyball experiences — enjoy! | |||
| #60 - Cynthia Erivo’s ‘Wicked’ Poster Controversy, Kardashians ‘Wicked’ Screening, Brianna Chickenfry & Zach Bryan Breakup | 28 oct. 2024 | 01:13:07 | |
The Charli XCX & Troye Sivan ‘Sweat’ tour has sadly come to an end…but it lives on through our pod, thanks to Audrey sharing her experience at the Portland show (00:01:32-00:10:49). Speaking of sweat (IYKYK)…Emily recaps her time at Saturday Night Live with Michael Keaton and Billie Eilish (00:10:49-00:18:42). After another gorgeous technical issue, we once again turn our attention to ‘Wicked’ and the chokehold it’s had on pop culture headlines. We cover Cynthia Erivo’s ‘Wicked’ poster controversy (00:19:15-00:29:30) and the Kardashian’s private screening of the film (00:29:30-00:41:58). To finally steer the conversation away from this damn movie, we discuss the official split between Brianna ‘Chickenfry’ LaPaglia and Zach Bryan (00:41:58-00:53:09). RHOSLC didn’t give us enough to work with last week, but Jeff Probst and Survivor 47 never let us down (00:53:45-01:07:40). | |||
| #59 - Salt & Straw Hit Piece, Sydney Sweeney’s Transformation, ‘The Hunger Games’ Prequel, ‘Chicken Shop Date,’ Reality Recap | 21 oct. 2024 | 01:09:06 | |
It’s the episode Audrey’s been waiting for…her opportunity to target Salt & Straw ice cream (on the mic) has finally come. We cover the unavoidable downfall of Salt & Straw (05:17-16:05) and Sydney Sweeney’s transformation into boxer Christy Martin for an upcoming untitled biopic (17:54-25:47). We also cover Suzanne Collins’ new ‘Hunger Games’ book (25:47-32:56), the palpable chemistry between Amelia Dimoldenberg and Andrew Garfield on ‘Chicken Shop Date’ (32:56-38:51), and share our thoughts from this week’s reality recap: RHOSLC (42:42-46:41) and Survivor (50:44-01:07:20). | |||

We’re hyped to be back after a week off (if you didn’t notice the missing episode last week….please disregard). We discuss Charli XCX’s ‘Brat’ Remix album (02:40- 14:15), marketing for the upcoming ‘Wicked’ movie (14:15-18:20), our thoughts on ‘Nobody Wants This’ and its official renewal for season two (18:20-30:15), and our weekly fall reality show recap: Real Housewives of Salt Lake City (30:25-38:20), Survivor (38:20-57:23), and Dancing with the Stars (57:23-01:01:45). | |||
| #57 - Chappell Roan PR Nightmare, Tia & Tamera Mowry, Short N Sweet Tour, Survivor Recap | 30 sept. 2024 | 00:59:26 | |
It’s a new week, (almost) a new month, and we have plenty of new stories to discuss. Chappell Roan continues to face backlash over her election remarks (02:24-10:26) and Tia and Tamera Mowry are clarifying that they didn’t actually have a falling out (10:26-15:36). Sabrina Carpenter has officially kicked off the Short n’ Sweet tour (15:36-22:14) and Audrey already has all concert content blocked from her algorithms. As The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives continues to dominate headlines — Taylor Frankie Paul and Dakota have allegedly split (22:14-28:18) and Whitney Leavitt had a bizarre interview on The Squeeze with Tay and Taylor Lautner (28:18-36:42). Finally, Survivor S47 has blessed us with another incredible episode (36:42-57:57). | |||
| #56 - RHOSLC, Survivor & DWTS Premieres | 23 sept. 2024 | 01:14:58 | |
It's only one day into fall and we’re already stuffed from the amount of content we were fed last week. Between The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Survivor, The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, The Golden Bachelorette, and Dancing with the Stars, our screen time is skyrocketing. We couldn’t allow this recording to be 17 hours long, so we spent this week’s episode breaking down the premieres of RHOSLC (04:03-30:51), Survivor (31:19-1:07:36), and Dancing with the Stars (1:07:56-1:12:47). TL;DR - it’s time to get your streaming subscriptions in order. | |||
| #55 - The VMA 2024 Special | 16 sept. 2024 | 00:46:11 | |
The 40th MTV Video Music Awards brought us enough content to cover an entire episode. We cover the top moments from the night — everything from performances to fashion to the summer song we think deserved better (starts at 09:56). | |||
| #54 - Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce’s Breakup Contract, Kylie Jenner & Jordyn Woods Reunite, “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” | 09 sept. 2024 | 00:39:16 | |
After two weeks off (which felt like a lifetime) we’re back to business. We discuss the oddly hilarious fake breakup contract for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce (06:04-15:33), Kylie Jenner and Jordyn Woods relaunching their friendship five years after their infamous fallout (15:33-24:49), and Audrey’s new favorite show, “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” (24:49-33:25). | |||
| #53 - Sabrina Carpenter’s “Short n’ Sweet” Album, Chappell Roan Sets Boundaries, The Bieber’s Welcome Baby Boy, Love Island USA Reunion Recap | 26 août 2024 | 01:07:35 | |
August has been too good to us. On this week’s episode, we discuss Sabrina Carpenter’s new album, “Short n’ Sweet” (02:00-24:25) and Chappell Roan setting boundaries with her fans (24:34-44:42). Justin and Hailey Bieber welcomed a baby boy, so we had no choice but to discuss the devastation this brought to all the Plum Bieber stans (44:42-50:03). Finally, we recap the Love Island USA S6 Reunion, from Kendall and Nicole to the fire pit footage (50:03-1:06:24). | |||
| #52 - Australian Breakdancer Raygun Controversy, “It Ends With Us” Drama Continues, Love Island USA S6 Reunion | 19 août 2024 | 00:56:26 | |
It was a week in pop culture that just kept on giving, so we had to bring our very own media correspondent, Brenden Hand, onto the pod! As a chronically online individual, Brenden dives into his passion for Addison Rae’s “Diet Pepsi” single/video (04:05-07:15), but then we cut the shit and really get down to business. The Paris Olympics have wrapped and we had no choice but to discuss the viral Australian breakdancer, Raygun (7:15-17:55). Somehow, even more drama has continued to unfold with the “It Ends With Us” story (20:422-33:12). And finally, we make predictions and pleas for what we’ll see in tonight’s Love Island USA S6 reunion (33:12-55:16). | |||
| #51 - “It Ends With Us” Cast Drama and the “Deadpool & Wolverine” 4DX Experience | 12 août 2024 | 00:39:46 | |
In a true cinema special, we cover the “It Ends With Us” cast drama and Audrey delivers one of the hottest takes about Ryan Reynolds (02:23-25:40). Emily recaps her 4DX experience seeing “Deadpool & Wolverine” in a Times Square theater where she fought for her life for a full 127 minutes (25:40-39:14). | |||
| #50 - Simone Biles Stays Winning, Robert Downey Jr.'s Marvel Return, and Root Canals | 05 août 2024 | 00:48:53 | |
Between the Olympic Village and the Love Island Villa, this summer continues to deliver high quality content. We cover the Simone Biles/MyKayla Skinner feud (07:07-15:39) and discuss some Love Island USA reunion foreshadowing (15:39-25:03). Emily made the mistake of seeing Longlegs in the theater (25:03-28:52), and an innocent talk about Robert Downey Jr. returning to Marvel leads to Audrey doing a beautiful TedTalk on comic book breakdowns because Emily can’t understand the difference between Avengers/Deadpool, Marvel/DC, etc. (28:52-41:19). And for our grand finale….pray for Emily and her upcoming root canal (42:22-46:20). | |||
| #49 - Olympics Opening Ceremony, Twisters, and Connor Recap | 29 juil. 2024 | 00:43:50 | |
While we may not have a Love Island cast member on this week's episode, there’s still much to be discussed. The Olympics gave us an Opening Ceremony to remember (00:38-12:52) and the aftermath of the Love Island finale continues to unravel (12:52-21:48). We reminisce on what an out of body experience it was to have Love Island’s Connor Newsum on the pod (21:48-31:52) and Audrey recaps the cinematic masterpiece that is Twister (31:52-37:40). | |||
| #48 - Connor Newsum Interview - Love Island USA, Reconnecting with Rob, and Life Outside of the Villa | 23 juil. 2024 | 00:43:19 | |
Forget "I got a text....." WE GOT A GUEST! From Season 6 of Love Island USA, Connor Newsum joins us to talk about his thoughts on the finale, readjusting to life outside of the villa, and what it's like to become a meme (multiple times). Connor reflects on his close friendships with Rob and Aaron, this year's winners, Serena and Kordell, and his relationships with JaNa and Leah. | |||
| #47 - The Shrek Effect | 22 juil. 2024 | 01:17:31 | |
If you’ve ever wanted to hear two people with ADHD try to host a podcast, this is the perfect episode for you. Brace yourselves, because we cover everything: Ingrid Andress’ National Anthem performance (6:48-14:37), some incredibly controversial Hello Kitty news (14:37-19:01), and Shrek 5/Audrey’s famed obsession with Shrek (19:18-52:34). What starts as an innocent conversation about ogres turns into an unpacking of our favorite Alec Baldwin content (27:42-30:52), Colin Jost’s comedy tour, our celebrity doppelgängers (32:40-41:21) and reboot wins/flops AKA lots of yapping about Gossip Girl and our fear of seeing Chad Michael Murray and Zac Efron look any different than they did in the 2000s (41:34-53:33). Audrey calls out Emily’s crispy R and does a scarily accurate impression of Kourtney Kardashian (53:47-56:16) and we do a brief Love Island USA dive into Kendall and Caine’s problematic moments (1:03:45-1:10:05). Finally, as much as we love this one….stay tuned for a very exciting next episode ! ! ! | |||
| #46 - Casa Amor | 15 juil. 2024 | 00:59:38 | |
If you haven’t started Love Island USA yet….DM us @thewrongsidepodcast for Peacock login information (for legal reasons, this is a joke). Emily’s still moving, Audrey went to another wedding, but we’re really just here for the Love Island updates. Audrey recaps the incredibly wet experience that is Casa Amor (17:03-38:26). TL;DR — the Love Island producers continue to choose evil and the casting department continues to bring in the hottest women we’ve ever seen. | |||
| #45 - We're .... Back? | 08 juil. 2024 | 01:29:29 | |
Just like Ross and Rachel, we were on a break.....but we're so back and now it's soooo over for the podcast community (and our bank accounts, thanks to our RSS expenses). We reflect on our mysterious podcast disappearance, do a deep dive into Love Island USA (17:56-36:30), and mostly just yap about life updates and wedding icks. Let's...discuss?! | |||
| #44 - ‘Bachelor’ Stars PPP Loan Backlash, Zendaya/Tom Holland Dating Rumors, Jamie Lynn Speaks | 06 juil. 2021 | 00:40:54 | |
While we’ve barely watched Katie’s season of The Bachelorette, the franchise always seems to come through with plenty of drama for us to unpack. First up: we never thought we’d say “The Bachelor” and “PPP Loans” in the same sentence, but 2021 is full of surprises! Several former stars are explaining why they were approved for COVID-era loans that were specifically designated to keep businesses afloat during the pandemic. We’re honestly not shocked that Arie and Lauren are roped into this, but Tayshia?? (10:54-22:52) Next: if you haven’t seen the kissing-in-the-car photos, close this app and run to see our Instagram stories (or Google, if you’re listening late). Tom Holland and Zendaya are sparking dating rumors after being photographed kissing in Tom’s car. From seeing their chemistry in Spiderman to Lip Sync Battle, say it with us: We. Are. Here. For. This (22:54-29:29). Last, but not least: Jamie Lynn Spears finally spoke out on her Instagram stories about her sister’s battle to end her conservatorship and it was….sus, to say the least. We unpack her Instagram rant and talk about why we think everyone in Britney’s family is on the Wrong Side at this point (29:30-40:08). Let’s discuss!t | |||
| #43 - KUWTK Reunion, #FreeBritney Update, Britney’s Testimony | 28 juin 2021 | 00:49:15 | |
We’re baaaack! And if you didn’t notice we were gone, never mind! After two weeks of vacay and slow news (minus the Frenemies drama), we’re hitting you with a new epi to unpack two big headlines. First up: there’s something about Andy Cohen (pronounced co-HEN, according to Audrey) that just pulls the best drama from his guests; and he did not disappoint while hosting the KUWTK Reunion. We talk about everything from Kendall claiming her back-up career would be an Olympian athlete (relatable), their takes on promoting unrealistic beauty standards, and much more (10:09-28:22). Finally: if you’ve been on your phone in the last week, you’ve seen the headlines about Britney Spears. Last week, she read a 24-minute statement against the conservatorship she’s lived under for 13 years before a Los Angeles probate judge. We unpack the new accusations that have surfaced, what next steps could possibly look like, and the power of the internet in helping to hopefully #FreeBritney (28:26-47:34). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #42 - Billie Eilish’s “Lost Cause” Music Video, Bo Burnham’s “Inside” Special, Friends Reunion Recap | 08 juin 2021 | 00:34:22 | |
Releasing an episode on a Tuesday?! Groundbreaking. We’re back with a mini episode to get you through your week! First up: Billie Eilish hit us with another incredible single, “Lost Cause,” and a ~chef’s kiss~ music video along with it. We discuss our initial thoughts on the video, how we feel about her past few singles, and why we think she isn’t happy with how her songs are performing on the charts (07:12-14:00). Next: if you haven’t seen Bo Burnham’s “Inside” special on Netflix, get your ass to the couch and put it on right now. The art? The creativity? The catchiness of his songs? Iconic #IYKYK (14:25-21:55). Finally: the long-awaited Friends reunion finally premiered on HBO Max and it was…..not as satisfying as we thought it was going to be, but we’re still happy with what we got. We talk about our favorite/least favorite moments and what we wish they would’ve done instead (hire us already) (21:56-32:44). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #41 - Olivia Rodrigo’s “Sour” Album, Ariana Grande’s Wedding, Our One-Year Pod-iversary! | 31 mai 2021 | 00:47:12 | |
Episode 41 and it feels like this is the 41st time we’ve mentioned Olivia Rodrigo, but can you blame us?? First up: unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably streamed Olivia Rodrigo’s “Sour” album 50+ times. If you haven’t, go stream it immediately (after listening to this epi, of course). We talk about our top three favorite tracks, theories about her next album, and what we think her tour will look like (07:52-24:55). Next: Ariana Grande is officially married and her wedding was just as perfect as you’d expect it to be. Between the Vera Wang dress and the Tom Ford suit, we mostly just complain about how exhausting it is to not be filthy rich and featured in Vogue (24:56-37:27). Finally, the hottest story of the year: The Wrong Side is officially one year old! We reminisce on our humble beginnings and try to figure out how the hell we actually made it this far. We obviously thank you all too, so tune in for all the credit (37:28-46:12). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #40 - Chrissy Teigen Controversy, The Friends Reunion, Kendall Jenner’s Tequila Ad | 24 mai 2021 | 00:49:24 | |
This week’s epi has us feeling forty, fhlirty, and fhriving. Between the Friends reunion happening next week and Olivia Rodrigo’s album dropping, spirits are high and the world is healing. First up: even though Chrissy Teigen’s abrupt return to Twitter was enough to place her on The Wrong Side, she’s in even hotter water amid the Courtney Stodden controversy. We unpack the million reasons why this is so problematic and try to figure out why this story sort of flew under the radar (13:16-24:46)? Next: the Friends reunion airs this week on HBO Max and we are truly unwell. Did we mention that it falls on the same date as our one-year pod anniversary? Between the re-reading of iconic scripts, trivia, and group hugs, we’re counting down the seconds until it airs. Also, still waiting for someone to explain why people are so pissed about James Corden hosting (24:56-31:12). Finally: Kendall Jenner has done it again, and not in a good way at all. Remember her Pepsi commercial? We unpack how just four years later, she’s managed to do everything wrong when it comes to her new tequila and all the marketing/advertising that’s being done for it (31:14-45:35). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #39 - Olivia Rodrigo’s “Good 4 U,” The End of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Kaitlyn Bristowe and Jason Tartick Getting Engaged | 17 mai 2021 | 00:51:20 | |
While there still hasn’t been a story that’s topped Demi vs. Froyo, pop culture really pulled through this week and gave us some amazing content to unpack. First up: Olivia Rodrigo has done it again (do you get deja vu reading that? Ha ha no but for real, we’ve definitely said that before). “Good 4 U” served all the nostalgic punk rock Paramore vibes we didn’t know we were craving and we’re beyond ready for her album to drop this week (16:06-26:39). Next: to nobody’s surprise, it was announced last week that season 19 of The Ellen DeGeneres Show will be the last. Ellen’s really out here trying to act like it’s ending because she’s “not being challenged enough,” and not at all because of the steep decline in ratings and toxic work environment. Regardless, we talk about how we still have a soft spot in our hearts for Ellen (26:47-37:59). Finally: Kaitlyn Bristowe and Jason Tartick are engaged and, to be fully transparent, we mostly just talk about the ring AKA rock AKA absolute boulder. The proposal was 10/10 and we unpack why Kaitlyn and Jason are such a great Bachelor nation couple (38:00-47:38). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #38 - Bill and Melinda Gates Separating, Ben Affleck and Matthew Perry’s Raya Videos | 10 mai 2021 | 00:51:20 | |
It was a slow news week, but we have a theory that the shittiest stories result in our best episodes, so you’re in for a treat! First up: Bill and Melinda Gates have announced their divorce after 27 years of marriage. We thought this segment would just be a basic recap, until Audrey dove into Bill Gates’ 30+ year arrangement to take annual trips with his ex-girlfriend? And we can’t forget the fact that Melinda Gates is currently renting a $132,000/night private island to avoid the media (18:36-30:32). Next and finally: is anyone else still feeling haunted by the clip of Ben Affleck saying, “it’s me”? We unpack the videos of him and Matthew Perry talking to young women from Raya and give our thoughts on big age gaps in relationships (30:38-47:41). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #37 - John Mayer’s Late-Night Talk Show, Billie Eilish’s New Song, Tristan Thompson Cheating Allegations | 03 mai 2021 | 01:01:56 | |
May is here, and so is a new episode of The Wrong Side! On today’s epi: First up, John Mayer is in talks with ViacomCBS to host his own late-night talk show? We’re down for the show, but we’re unfortunately not down to pay for yet another streaming service (we’re looking at you, Paramount Plus). If anyone wants to lend us their login info when the show comes out, that’d be great (24:38-34:28). Next, we asked for new music and Billie Eilish delivered. We talk about “Your Power,” the music video, and her documentary on Apple TV+. Also, the anaconda in the music video is 100% real and apparently its name is Archie (34:36-49:12). Finally, the least shocking news of the week: Tristan Thompson allegedly cheated on Khloe Kardashian (again) and we can’t say we’re surprised. We unpack the interviews his alleged mistress is doing, reminisce on the Jordyn Woods scandal, and read some savage Tweets (49:20-1:00:10). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #36 - Demi Lovato vs. Froyo, Zac Efron Plastic Surgery Rumors, Caitlyn Jenner Running For CA Governor | 26 avr. 2021 | 00:51:18 | |
Audrey is back (sort of; she’s in Palm Springs) and all feels right in the world again. Unless you’re Demi Lovato at a froyo shop.... First up: maybe the most bizarre story of 2021. Remember when Demi Lovato went to go get some froyo and ended up causing a whole ass battle between her and the Bigg Chill in L.A.? Yeah, us too. We unpack both sides of the story and dive into her Instagram live “apology” (08:58-24:32). Next: if you’re on Twitter, you’ve definitely seen the pictures of Zac Efron looking slightly different. While it appears he may have had some work done, the bottom line is this: everyone needs to chill the hell out (24:35-36:52). And finally, more news that we really didn’t need to hear this week: Caitlyn Jenner is officially running for California governor. Is this better or worse than Kanye running for president? (36:58-43:31). Bonus: we also touch on Elon Musk hosting SNL and Jeff Wittek opening up about the accident involving David Dobrik that almost killed him. Let’s discuss! | |||
| #35 - Colton Underwood Coming Out as Gay, TikTok Drama Explained, Top Headlines | 19 avr. 2021 | 00:47:31 | |
Be warned: this is Emily’s first (and hopefully last) solo pod. Unless you were living under a rock this past week, you already know what the top story is: First up, Colton Underwood coming out as gay on Good Morning America. While we’re so happy that Colton is speaking his truth and living his happiest/healthiest life, we’re not keen on turning a blind eye to how he was obsessively stalking and manipulating Cassie just about a year ago. And don’t forget the Change.org petition that’s currently trying to stop his Netflix deal (09:18-25:45). Next: even though Emily is probably too old for this shit, she explains all of the TikTok drama happening between Nessa, Mads, Jaden, and Josh. From the podcast interviews to the shady Instagram videos, there’s nothing like listening to teenager drama to get your week started off right (26:07-39:44). And finally, some headlines from last week: makeup brand Morphe parting ways with James Charles amid sexual misconduct allegations, the J. Lo and A-Rod split that quite literally everyone saw coming, and (fml) confirmation that Pete Davidson and Phoebe Dynevor are an item (39:48-46:26). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #34 - Kardashian Special: Khloe’s Photo Drama, Kourtney/Addison Rae’s Friendship, Kim Officially Becoming a Billionaire | 12 avr. 2021 | 00:56:41 | |
Love them or hate them, the Kardashians are the backbone of pop culture. This week was no exception, so without further adieu, we present to you: a Kardashian special. First up: who knew that one normal bikini picture could break the internet? After an unfiltered/unretouched photo of Khloe Kardashian made its way onto the interwebs, everyone lost their damn minds. We cover social media reactions, Khloe’s statement, and how truly depressing this whole situation is (09:04-37:04). Next: Kim Kardashian is officially a billionaire and…..are we surprised? No. Are we glad they didn’t try to label her as “self-made”? Yes. We still can’t wrap our heads around how much money $1B really is, but we ARE accepting donations (39:08-44:11). And finally, to round out the sisters: between her friendship with Addison Rae and NSFW relationship with Travis Barker, Kourtney Kardashian is everywhere. If you haven’t seen the latest episode of KUTWK, we talk about the investigation by Khloe and Kim to get to the bottom of why Addison and Kourtney are so close (44:12-55:22). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #33 - Regé-Jean Page Leaving Bridgerton, Olivia Rodrigo’s “Deja Vu,” Lil Nas X Controversy | 05 avr. 2021 | 00:52:52 | |
The music industry truly did the most this week--and for that, we are grateful. First up: the only story not related to music. In a truly shocking announcement, Lady Whistledown revealed that Regé-Jean Page will not be appearing in season two of Bridgerton. We’re pissed, we also sort of understand, but we’re mostly pissed (09:43-19:48). Next, Olivia Rodrigo literally cannot be stopped and we’re already betting that “Deja Vu” will be topping our Spotify Wrapped 2021. From the lyrics to the music video to the Sabrina Carpenter stans slowly chilling out, there’s good vibes all around (19:50-28:12). Speaking of queens, Demi Lovato released a powerful music video for her song, “Dancing With the Devil.” We’re finally watching her YouTube docuseries and unpack why her transparency and bravery is so appreciated (28:22-36:38). Have you seen the music video for MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name)? If you haven’t, here’s all you need to know: Lil Nas X pissed off Candace Owens, so he’s doing something right. The song slaps (36:39-42:08). And finally, we talk about Taylor Swift’s vault video with coded messages ahead of her “Fearless” release. We love you Taylor, but we simply cannot do this today (42:10-50:03). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #32 - The Bachelor Finale, Addison Rae’s Debut Single, Millennials vs. Gen Z | 22 mars 2021 | 00:52:58 | |
We’re so excited to announce that this will (hopefully) be the last week for a long time that our episode title includes “The Bachelor.” First up, we briefly discuss the two hours of The Bachelor finale AKA two hours of our lives we’ll never get back—but more importantly, we discuss Emmanuel Acho’s incredible hosting skills, Rachael’s interview, and our thoughts on Michelle and Katie being the next Bachelorettes (13:12-30:48). Next, we talk about Addison Rae’s surprise debut single, “Obsessed.” From the Britney Spears/Selena Gomez vibes it exudes, to iconic lyrics like “my heels so high, might get a nosebleed,” there’s just a lot to unpack here (30:49-41:30). And finally, something that’s been taking over social media for the last month: the great Millennial vs. Gen Z debate. As two people on the cusp, we weigh in on the pros and cons of each and offer comfort to anyone listening that skinny jeans are still very much a thing (41:40-50:53). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #31 - Prince Harry/Meghan Markle Interview, Piers Morgan Being the WOAT, Tayshia and Kaitlyn Hosting The Bachelorette | 15 mars 2021 | 00:56:27 | |
Once again, America has defeated the British Monarchy by spilling the tea. We break down the biggest bombshells of the Oprah interview with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, discuss our thoughts on each member of the royal family, and dive into the pathetic Piers Morgan situation and his creepy obsession with the Duchess (09:06-40:46). Next up: Bachelor/ABC drama is basically the only constant in our lives at this point, and we have yet another update. It was announced last week that Tayshia Adams and Kaitlyn Bristowe will be co-hosting the next season of The Bachelorette and we’re not mad about it! We’ll take anything as long as it’s not Matt James’ season or Chris Harrison (41:03-49:06). Finally, we bring back our 30-second headlines to frantically cover the weird Jennifer Lopez/Alex Rodriguez relationship drama, what’s happening between Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson, and a fantasy suite episode recap (49:10-53:12). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #30 - Jennette McCurdy Quits Acting, Chris Harrison’s GMA Interview, Women Tell All Recap | 08 mars 2021 | 00:52:30 | |
This pod is a lot like Jennifer Garner, because we’re 13 going on (episode) #30! Here’s today’s roundup: First, we cover Jennette McCurdy’s announcement that she quit acting and won’t be joining the iCarly reboot. Naturally, this led to unpacking all the creepy rumors and foot fetish observations about iCarly creator, Dan Schneider. Can we all just collectively agree to put an end to reboots? (10:46-25:52) Next, a man that seems to grace the news every day at this point: Chris Harrison. He did his first interview since stepping back from The Bachelor with Michael Strahan on Good Morning America. If you’ve never seen a robot do an interview before, check it out! We dissect the whole thing and spoiler alert: he’s still very much on The Wrong Side (26:06-40:10). Last, and honestly maybe least: the always dreadful Women Tell All. We’re not sure what was in the water, but toxicity levels were at an all-time high. We unpack everything from the whole group turning on Katie (??), Anna’s horrible apology to Brittany, and Heather being completely cut from the episode (40:11-48:14). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #29 - Rachel Lindsay Deleting Her Instagram, Emmanuel Acho’s Bachelor Hosting Duties, John Mayer Twitter Backlash | 01 mars 2021 | 00:40:59 | |
After a week-long hiatus that felt like three months, we're back at it again with a handful of updates on the Chris Harrison interview fallout. First things first: Rachel Lindsay deleted her Instagram after receiving an onslaught of harassment from Bachelor Nation. This all happened after Rachael Kirkconnell spoke out in an Instagram video where she even applauded Rachel Lindsay for her efforts, but some people must've fast-forwarded through that part (7:40-13:40). In a tiny slice of good news this week, it was announced that Emmanuel Acho, host of "Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man," will be replacing Chris Harrison to host this season's "After the Final Rose." A good decision by ABC? Groundbreaking (13:42-28:00). Finally, we chat about Twitter absolutely coming for John Mayer after he told Andy Cohen that he almost cried five times while watching "Framing Britney Spears." Warning: this conversation somehow evolves into a deep dive into figuring out where Jessica Simpson is these days (28:00-37:17). Let's discuss! | |||
| #28 - Chris Harrison Backlash, Britney Spears Documentary, Taylor Swift’s Re-Recorded ‘Fearless’ Album | 15 févr. 2021 | 00:47:56 | |
If you thought the Kim Kardashian/North West painting debate was going to make an appearance, unfortunately, the tea was piping this week and we’ve got other stories to cover. First up: if you haven’t seen the Rachel Lindsay/Chris Harrison interview, we can sum it up in a few words....Chris Harrison is on The Wrong Side. After he aggressively defended Rachael Kirkconnell’s reputation, everything rightfully went up into flames and apology statements are now being thrown around left and right. We’ve got the whole recap on what might be ~the most dramatic~ Bachelor scandal (04:18-20:02). Next: #FreeBritney. We watched 'The New York Times Presents Framing Britney Spears' and there's just a lot to unpack here. We discuss how sketchy Jamie Spears is, how Britney deserves so much better, and all the ominous hints that something is veeerrrry off in this whole situation (20:03-37:32). Finally, our queen Taylor Swift continues to work overtime and do the most for us. She announced last week that her re-recorded ‘Fearless’ album will be released in April, including six unreleased songs. Alexa, play Love Story (37:33-45:34). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #27 - The Bachelor, Morgan Wallen Controversy, Golden Globe Nominations | 08 févr. 2021 | 00:56:26 | |
The tea was mild this week, but that never stops us from somehow still recording an hour-long episode. First up: we cover last week’s episode of The Bachelor. Highlights include: Rachael’s one-on-one shopping date and our mixed feelings on her relationship with Matt, MJ vs. Jessenia (spoiler: we’re team Jessenia), Kit’s one-on-one date, and why we think Katie will be the next Bachelorette (14:18-29:54). Next, we talk about someone who’s always on the Wrong Side: Morgan Wallen. We discuss everything from his SNL cancellation/redemption last year, to the recent video of him using a racial slur. Most importantly, Audrey explains how to block him on Spotify (29:54-35:52). Finally, it’s awards szn and you better believe we’re covering Golden Globe nominations that make zero sense and the top four snubs that deserve justice (35:56-53:05). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #26 - New Arrivals on The Bachelor, “The Wilds” on Amazon Prime, 30 Second Headlines | 02 févr. 2021 | 01:09:45 | |
On episode 26 of The Wrong Side, special guest (and former roommate!) Nadia joins to discuss Emily and Audrey’s best and worst roommate behaviors and helps them cover the tea from last week. First up: the new arrivals on The Bachelor (Michelle, we’re rooting for you) and why Nadia is Katie’s #1 fan (28:10-48:56). Now that Audrey has finally finished “The Wilds” on Amazon Prime, we also discuss the show and all of the questions it had the audacity to leave us with (49:15-1:04:48). Finally, we end the epi with some 30 second headlines: the Kardashians’ upcoming and final season, Katherine Heigl’s attempted comeback, and Machine Gun Kelly being everywhere at once (1:05:20-1:07:58). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #25 - Sarah vs. Everyone on The Bachelor, Clare and Dale Call It Quits, Sabrina Carpenter Has Entered the Chat | 25 janv. 2021 | 01:02:43 | |
On episode 25 of The Wrong Side, we’re keeping you informed on a lot of drama involving a lot of blondes. First, we cover the absolute bloodbath that was Sarah vs. the rest of Matt’s cast on the most recent episode of The Bachelor (9:58-27:22). Speaking of The Bachelor, Dale Moss is once again a bachelor because, to literally no one’s surprise, Clare and Dale have broken up. We talk about the level-10-cringe sequence of events that went down regarding the announcement of the very much expected news. TL;DR....Dale didn't show up (27:29-41:26). Finally, if you’re still invested in two girls fighting over an average white boy, we’re giving our final thoughts on Sabrina Carpenter's new song, “Skin,” and declaring the winner of this tea once and for all (41:30-57:08). Let’s discuss! | |||
| #24 - Recapping Olivia Rodrigo and Joshua Bassett Tea and Catching Up on the Armie Hammer Allegations | 18 janv. 2021 | 00:36:44 | |
This episode is The Wrong Side's first solo episode hosted by Audrey! (Emily is getting some R&R this week - we have to stan). At this point if you don't know what the hell is going on with Olivia Rodrigo and Joshua Bassett, come thru for the recap and let us take you under our wing. To recap, Olivia and Joshua may have endured a heartbreak, but Olivia stays winning, and Joshua will be juuuuust fine. (3:40-14:05) Next, we dive into the Armie Hammer rumors that have been circulating for the past week - we do our best to cover the facts so you know where the story sits now and can keep up if and when more breaks. Saved my opinions 'til the end since nothing has been confirmed. (14:05-36:44) P.S. — Emily will be back next week :) | |||
| #23 - Kim & Kanye Divorce Drama, Matt James’ Bachelor Premiere, Netflix’s “Bridgerton” | 11 janv. 2021 | 01:08:06 | |
The first week of 2021 brought enough tea for us to sip on for a lifetime. First, we had the Kim and Kanye divorce bombshell, somehow then combined with rumors that Kanye and Jeffree Star were having an affair??? (10:28-21:35) The Bachelor made a comeback with Matt James’ debut and it wasn’t as bad as we thought it’d be, but we did have some thoughts on the prayer he initiated and Heather M joining the show soon (21:39-40:12). Finally, we cover our favorite show of the year (even if we’re only 11 days in), which is Netflix’s “Bridgerton.” This show gave us everything we needed and we have much to discuss. Also, it should be illegal for anyone to be as attractive as the Duke of Hastings (40:16-1:06:33). P.S. — We promised we’d talk about “The Queen’s Gambit” again but, to nobody’s surprise, we ran out of time. We’ll argue about it next week (1:06:37-1:07:14). Let’s discuss! | |||
