Vivid Sydney BLEW OUR MINDS & are streaming services dead?

This month's episode is jam-packed and full of fresh content for all you wonderful listeners out there! The boys (distinct boys from the ones from the Amazon Prime TV show "The Boys") present the freshest news from the month of May (and possibly some of June, who really is to say?) - They're talking Depp v. Heard, a black hole in the middle of the Milky Way and even the Queen of England's Platinum Jubilee. They also delve into the depths of pop culture, exploring topics such as TikTok drama over some lettuce, their experience at Vivid Sydney, Paramount+ and its best shows, Netflix and its potential downfall, Amazon Prime and its show "The Boys", Morbius the film, Morbius as a meme (and all its side effects) and various other films in the pop culture ecosystem. They also briefly cover their thoughts on the conflict in Ukraine that is still taking place, and they discuss a seriously heart-wrenching tragedy that happened on the 24th of May at Robb Elementary School, expressing their thoughts and prayers that things would start to change in order to keep kids safe at school in the USA.

Corrections:

*Platinum Jubilee is actually only 70 years!!!

**Harry and Meghan's child's name is Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.
