This week we’ve got the Oscars on our mind. This year’s awards were massive so there’s a lot to cover including fashion trends, politics, and the absolute snub of Barbie. But we also share some good news about chocolate fountains. Plus, a recap of Ariana Grande’s return to pop culture and a little chat about the mysteries surrounding Kate Middleton.

💖 We hope you love Episode 3 of the podcast for burnt out girlies trying to stay Broadly Relevant, hosted by your favourite personality hires, Simran Pasricha & Ryan Hamilton. Stay tuned for new episodes every Monday at 6PM (AEDT)
