#219: Barbie, Thor, Looking Black

It’s been a whirlwind coupla weeks and Myf and Zan have heaps to catch up on. TV adventures as the ABC celebrates 90, book deadlines, and what it’s like to be in a trigger ban state when Roe V Wade is overturned. In more joyful news, Rihanna has become the youngest female billionaire, and Only Murders in the Building is back (with a helluva guest cast). The internet is frothing at images emerging from the Barbie movie shoot, and we catch you up on everything you need to know. It feels like the '80s is having a real resurgence at the mo, with the new Thor film leaning sonically and visually toward that decade too. And fashion is feeling it; google trends show that the rise of legwarmers is upon us. Thank you, Stranger Things. Bang On Live is on the cards, we let you know where you can find us in late October! And we’re banging on about the history of Indigenous storytelling on the ABC, the best kind of breakfast TV on SBS, and a coupla musical queens on Netflix Show notes: ABC 90 Celebrate: https://iview.abc.net.au/show/abc-90-celebrate Rihanna: https://consequence.net/2022/07/rihanna-youngest-woman-self-made-billionaire/ Only Murders In the Building: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4d7y7GDhDE&ab_channel=Hulu The Barbie Movie: https://www.glamour.com/story/the-barbie-movie-everything-we-know Thor: Love & Thunder: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-07-07/thor-love-and-thunder-review-chris-hemsworth-natalie-portman/101176926 80’s Fashion Revival: https://junkee.com/stranger-things-80s-fashion/334789 Grapes of Mirth: https://moshtix.com.au/v2/event/grapes-of-mirth-the-festival/130202?skin=GOMFESTIVAL22 Looking Black: https://iview.abc.net.au/show/looking-black Big Mob Brekky: https://www.sbs.com.au/ondemand/program/big-mob-brekky Halftime: the J Lo doco: https://www.netflix.com/title/81031929 Here I Am: Dolly Parton doco: https://www.netflix.com/au/title/81204624 Email us: [email protected] Bang On is an ABC podcast, produced by Double J.
