We then get straight back on our bullshit, playing a good old fashion game of "Who's the Arsehole?" in the Justin Baldoni/Blake Lively/Ryan Reynolds saga. Is Ryan Reynolds a manic control freak? Will the case make it to court? Or will Justin Baldoni accept a healthy cheque and never speak of the matter again? Only time will tell...

Discussion turns to the devastating Los Angeles fires and the disturbing #EatTheRich mentality existing online, or perhaps not-so-rich when it comes to Spencer & Heidi Pratt.

We then discuss the Jerry Springer doco on Netflix, which explores the ethics (or lackthereof) involved in producing the landmark 90's talk show. We ask the big question: "Can you have a successful TV show that is both wholesome AND outrageous?" Alex also reveals some MAFS BTS juice on how a change in production and staff lead to a shift in tone (and overall success) of the show.

At this point, we're both a glass of Rose deep, but we vow to pause recording, watch the MAFS premiere & come back to debrief.

Listen to our unfiltered and slightly delirious take on the new batch of contestants who are clearly all there for the RIGHT REASONS and not to become influencers.

Just like COVID, MAFS will adapt & continue to infect the population 36:52

約 5 日前36:52

36:52

CONTENT WARNING: This episode discusses domestic violence & addiction Would you humiliate your partner for $500? This is the ethical dilemma Jordy was faced with this week and, of course, needs to discuss with the class. Alex reminds us that humiliation is a kink for some and she's got the (literal) receipts to prove it. We discuss the enabling behaviors surrounding celebrities, after Jordy watched 'Matthew Perry: A Hollywood Tragedy' on Stan. Just where is the balance of personal responsibility and the industry's role in supporting struggling celebrities? Can we blame producers for doing everything in their power to appease talent? Or do celebs need to take more accountability? Speaking of accountability, Alex shares her thoughts on who may have been responsible for Adrian getting on MAFS, despite being historically accused of DV. We speculate on how the show will change in 2026 in response to public outcry and online criticism...oh, and an ongoing police investigation after Paul punched a hole in a wall. But just like COVID, we know that MAFS will adapt and mutate into a stronger variant that will continue to infect the population. Follow us on socials @thatshowbizbaby.pod Hosted on Acast.

EX-MAFS producer gives contestants a reality check: if you've got trauma, don't sign the contract! 32:11

This week on TSB, Alex and Jordy have intel straight from Neighbours HQ, after the show was axed...again. Is this REALLY the end for Australia's longest running soap? Only time will tell... Alex addresses the theme song controversy of HBO's "White Lotus" and Jordy critiques wellness influencers, after watching Apple Cider Vinegar on Netflix. The debate continues as to whether SNL is funny, and for some reason, Jordy has been WRONGLY ACCUSED of supporting MAGA. After clearing that up, she throws herself right back in the sh*tter by admitting she loves Big Bang Theory. The ep ends with our weekly LOL at MAFS contestants and a whinge about the stupid comments we read on social media. Moral of the story? If you've got trauma, DO NOT ENTER SKYE SUITES!!!

Accidental celeb encounters + what REALLY happened in the MAFS editing suite 32:55

約 26 日前32:55

32:55

Ever had a celebrity encounter but not realised till after the fact? You won't believe who was in Alex' F45 class this week... We discuss the infamous photo ranking challenge on MAFS and why Jordy believes that sometimes telling a lie is better than the truth. Alex reveals what really happens in the editing suites when post-producing episodes containing sensitive subjects and which contestant put the whole team of producers 'off' with his off remarks when it comes to ethnicity. An interview with a Brisbane radio show has us reminiscing about "Couch time", which was, according to some, TV's lowest point, but that doesn't stop us from flogging the dead horse and pitching a reboot. Of course, we can't end the ep without a LOL at the last week of MAFS, the batch!t contestants and the Reddit live thread that is possibly more entertaining than the first two combined.

A former MAFS 'villain' slid into Alex' DM's & why we still call BS on 'bad edits' 35:50

5 weeks前35:50

35:50

In a delightful turn of events, Alex went viral last week after sharing her online dating history with Tim, the front runner for MAFS #1 villain in 2025. Keen to be known as more than just one of Tim's bitches, Alex reminded the internet that she's also an ex- post-producer WITH a podcast - and boy, did the people flock?! We share (with permission) war stories sent in from women who have had the displeasure of encountering Tim, and Alex drops a bomb that Katie may not be as innocent as she appears. Then, as promised, Jordy puts Alex in the hot seat and demands answers to a handful of the BTS questions we received throughout the week: Honeymoons: Who goes where and when? How many of the cast are approached in real life/social media? Is it true that the chaotic dinner parties take less time to film? Are the contestants contracted to attend dinner parties etc.? Who has had the best/worst edit and why? Stay tuned for our next episode where we'll be delving deeper into the ethics (or lackthereofof) surrounding reality TV at large.

WE'RE BAAAAAAAAAAACK! And it seems we have some explaining to do...We know we kind of fell off the face of the earth at the end of last year, but hear us out okay? We had good reason! Or at least that's what we're telling ourselves. We then get straight back on our bullshit, playing a good old fashion game of "Who's the Arsehole?" in the Justin Baldoni/Blake Lively/Ryan Reynolds saga. Is Ryan Reynolds a manic control freak? Will the case make it to court? Or will Justin Baldoni accept a healthy cheque and never speak of the matter again? Only time will tell...

Rove McManus brings iconic showbiz nostalgia...we bring the chaos 1:10:33

1:10:33

Rove McManus is a true icon of Australian television. From 1999-2009, he was part millions of living rooms around the country. We'd all we all tune in to Rove Live to laugh, watch the biggest celebrity interviews & of course, get our weekly dose of "WHAT THE?!". Years later, Rove is still the much loved Aussie icon he always has been, and in a stunning turn of events, he said YES to coming on our pod! So there we were, sitting across from television royalty, trying to tame our inner chaos. Don't worry, we came prepared and made sure we asked ALL the questions you'd want the answers to. Rove gives us a candid recount of how he built the show from the ground up, never before heard behind the scenes stories & the evolution of "What The?!" Hear how he made the choice to end the show on his terms, his move to LA & why he is passionate about mentoring new talent. This is a rare, in-depth chat with Rove that these 2 showbiz nerds are seriously so grateful for! Don't meet your idols, unless they're Rove.

Reality TV contestants are signing their rights away...& then complaining about having no rights 55:01

25 weeks前55:01

55:01

This week on TSB we hit the ground running with "The Block" drama, where former contestant Paige has made allegations about manipulative production practices. Because, you know, reality TV is always 100% real and unmanipulated, right? Alex gives her 2 cents as a former post-production producer & vows to get some inside goss from her mates at Channel 9, STAY TUNED! The conversation then shifts to musician Dave Grohl, who recently revealed he has a daughter from an extramarital affair *CLUTCHES PEARLS*. It seems his reputation as "one of the good guys" in rock n roll might not be so accurate after all. We then welcome this weeks guest, Aussie medium Jessica Lynn, who talks about having a profile in the media, celebrity readings & portrayals of psychic mediums in film and TV.

"I won't be treated like a second class citizen!" 37:59

37:59

We recount our oh-so-glamorous experience at the Chemist Warehouse brand showcase, where we were treated like second class citezens in favour of influencers and reality TV contestants. Because who doesn't love feeling like a nobody next to someone who gets paid to post selfies? Alex was irate but Jordy resigned herself to this reality of showbiz long ago... Tom Gleeson responded to our snarky video exposing him as a liar, but Jordy still isn't convinced he'll come on the pod. We discuss the Oasis reunion, an infamous spat between 2 Neighbours cast members & question whether we'll ever know the truth about Harry & Meghan. Jordy has been watching Netflix doco Popstar Academy, and recounts the time she was almost in a movie musical about a girlband titled, "The Chickabees". Spoiler alert: the movie never received funding, so naturally we're starting a campaign to get it off the ground! Rate, review, subscribe & stay up to date on socials @thatsshowbizbaby.pod !!!

Can we hit pause on expecting celebrities to save the world? 31:12

Larry Emdur won the Gold Logie and we don't mean to brag, but we called it. From Rebecca Gibney's son to Raygun's cameo appearance, we recap Australian television's night of nights and Alex reminds us again that she's worked with most of the Gold nominees. We also expose Tom Gleeson for lies he spun to Alex' Dad...yes, you read that right, listen for context... We do a deep dive into the drama surrounding Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni's film adaptation of "It Ends With Us." Power dynamics and claims of fat-shaming in showbiz? Shocking, we know. While celebs and their bad behaviour might once have been protected, it seems the tide is turning. While we don't expect them to be puretins, can we hit pause on expecting celebs to save the world?

Strap yourselves in for 45 minutes of a mix of old & new Logies stories from Australian Televisions night of nights! In this special Logies bumper episode we cover: - The soap opera rivalry between "Home & Away" & "Neighbours", because nothing says high stakes like fictional beach towns and suburban drama. - Alex's awkward red carpet interview with a mystery actress - Logies after-parties: where the real entertainment begins -How Seal (the singer, not the marine mammal) almost got Jordy sued - Our Gold Logie predictions, which was basically a chance for Alex to name-drop celebrity pals & old colleagues, while pretending she has any interest at all in who wins.

TV's cultural reckoning is here & it's a good time to be alive (& have a microphone) 50:35

30 weeks前50:35

50:35

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.

A mortifying email from Sam Armytage & the legalities of the Cash Cow: Alex spills about her time on Sunrise 34:08

31 weeks前34:08

34:08

LI We're BACK BABY! After a short production break, we're out of Jordy's study & IN STUDIO! Alex gives us the rundown from her first audition, which of course Jordy insisted on chaperoning her to/from & documenting for content. Will Alex become the face of a national brand? Will she create a Starnow profile? Only time will tell... In Aussie media news, Sam Armytage announced her departure from Channel 7 after 21 years on Instagram last week. Fans (& friends) of TSB will know Alex once worked as a digital producer on Sunrise, so we decided to open up the (breakfast TV shaped) can of worms & spill the tea on what is the biggest pressure cooker in showbiz. Alex reveals just how stressful live television can be, the 'mortifying' email she once received from Sam Armytage herself & the strict legalities around the infamous Cash Cow. Lastly, we question if viewers still want 'polished' presenters & higher production value when it comes to free-to-air TV. We'd love to hear your thoughts, but don't slide into our DMs just to tell us you don't watch TV at all, okay?

The phallic fan gift that left Phil Burton speechless & inside the group chat of Human Nature 43:28

34 weeks前43:28

43:28

Jordy lost 1 hour & 54 minutes of her life watching "A Family Affair," and is spoiling the entire plot in an unhinged rage so you don't have to. Alex also recommends a brilliant Aussie 'dramady' that's second season is near perfect, much like the first. Phil Burton (1/4 of iconic boyband Human Nature) is our FIRST EVER GUEST and is it obvious that neither of us have any cool about the situation? We explore the evolution of Human Nature’s style, both musical & physical: from goatees to bleached tips, the latex uniforms to double denim, and finally to their iconic Motown phase. Phil spills the tea on the strangest gift he's received from a fan, the reality of maintaining a Vegas show for over 11 years & why he chose to walk away from it all. Was he banished from the Human Nature WhatsApp (yes they have a group WhatsApp!) after moving back to Australia? You'll have to listen to find out, and don't tell us we don't ask the big questions here at TSB!
