Pesto and Moo Deng are blowing up the internet

Bang On

It's another big week but all good, Myf and Zan are here to make sense of it all for you. And oh boy, the internet has delivered.

In Detroit, a Bridgerton themed "experience" is drawing comparisons to the Wonka debacle early 2024 (and obvs we are all in). Speaking of period drama, Wuthering Heights is getting another remake, but fans aren't too happy about the casting of Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi.

Live streams are going off for a Thai zoo and we have Moo Deng to thank. The baby hippopotamus is still at her adorable, CBF best (ahead of her deadly, will kill anything that crosses her era), and we can't look away. But Pesto is coming in hot, a cuddly big boi of a penguin closer to home.

We're unzipping Double J's "Filthy Fifty" to see if the list of the best f**king songs correlates to our own soundtrack, and banging on about new TV comedy The English Teacher, and French TV show La Maison.

This episode contains strong language.
