We start this episode with a cameo from a quite cranky Elio, apparently Em’s introduction wasn’t up to a toddler's expectations, so the rest of us should be totally fine...phew. Then Michael returns to help Em work through Melbourne’s thirst for their Chief Health Minister, Professor Brett Sutton. His TV appearances as Victorians battle against COVID-19 have clearly been enough to inspire some light sexual objectification, so much so that he’s now the subject of erotic fan fiction on Twitter. From there it's only natural to work our way through the latest Emmy nominations, with a delicate sprinkling of outrage over ‘365 Days’ missing out on getting any noms. It had drone sex on a yacht people, like what is actually going on? Fingers are now furiously being crossed that it doesn’t actually need an Emmy anyway, because it will get Oscar nominations instead...seems likely. We also delve in to the black and white photo challenge that's flooding your social feeds right now. It would seem the original intent behind the sharing of black and white photos came from a really sad place, so we’ll fill you in on that shocking story and also touch on the backlash over the backlash. Seems it’s just another moment where people thought they were doing something nice, but hadn’t actually bothered to do the research behind it, story of the internet’s life...am I right? So unless you’re a stroppy toddler, we’d strongly recommend you put this episode in your listening holes posthaste, which means with the greatest possible speed or promptness, job done.
