#173: Naomi Osaka, Bo Burnham, Channel 9

What this episode covers

A tennis champion’s decision to not partake in press conferences has got everyone talking, and it raises questions again about old ways falling, and respecting mental health, rising. Channel 9’s vaccination push has hit a bung note for everyone who doesn’t have straight blonde hair, and the internet is ablaze with millennial Bo Burnham’s new Netflix special, shot through the pandemic last year. Meanwhile as Myf and Zan continue Lockdown 4.0, there’s plenty to watch and read. Myf is loving a new show on SBS called Creamerie, while Zan is whipping through Tracey Thorn's book My Rock n’ Roll Friend.   Show notes:  We’re Not the Good Guys: https://www.theguardian.com/sport/blog/2021/may/31/were-not-the-good-guys-osaka-shows-up-problems-of-press-conferences?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other Tracey Holmes on Naomi Osaka: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-06-02/grand-slam-bosses-respond-poorly-to-osaka-french-open-withdrawal/100185462 Jan Fran on Channel 9: https://twitter.com/Jan__Fran/status/1399552215379943430 Bo Burnham’s “Inside”: https://www.abc.net.au/triplej/the-latest/bo-burnham-inside-netflix-special-review-feature-pandemic-art/13369788 Kate Winslet: https://www.theguardian.com/film/2021/jun/01/kate-winslet-says-she-refused-offer-to-edit-sex-scene-showing-bulgy-belly Matt LeBlanc is every Irish uncle: https://www.vulture.com/2021/05/matt-leblanc-irish-uncle-twitter-meme-after-friends-reunion.html My Rock n’ Roll Friend: https://allenandunwin.com/browse/books/other-books/My-Rock-n-Roll-Friend-Tracey-Thorn-9781838854041 Creamerie: https://www.sbs.com.au/ondemand/program/creamerie Email us: [email protected]   Bang On is produced by Double J and is recorded on the lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation.
