1
00:00:02.656 --> 00:00:03.996
a listener production.

2
00:00:08.618 --> 00:00:09.938
Hi, it's Sarah here.

3
00:00:10.178 --> 00:00:11.639
I am so sorry.

4
00:00:11.799 --> 00:00:17.201
I know this is very obviously not our regular Tuesday episode, given that this will be about two minutes long.

5
00:00:17.701 --> 00:00:24.883
But in nearly three years now of doing this podcast, we have never missed a Tuesday episode unless we've had like an actually scheduled

6
00:00:25.323 --> 00:00:25.683
break.

7
00:00:25.963 --> 00:00:28.764
So first time for everything, I suppose.

8
00:00:29.324 --> 00:00:31.465
But we've had a bit of a perfect storm this week.

9
00:00:32.045 --> 00:00:40.107
I was sick earlier in the week and then Justine is now also sick and Justine was meant to be filling in for Hannah because Hannah's an island at the moment.

10
00:00:40.327 --> 00:00:46.769
So to give Justine and myself another second to recover, we're just shifting this week's episode back by one day.

11
00:00:46.849 --> 00:00:47.069
So the

12
00:00:50.850 --> 00:00:53.814
And honestly, there is so much to talk about this week.

13
00:00:53.914 --> 00:01:00.222
We're getting into Trump promising every American adult $5,000 if Republicans win the midterms, which is insane.

14
00:01:00.742 --> 00:01:07.931
Shailene Woodley becoming the internet's latest hero after her ex-fiance Aaron Rodgers decided to talk about their breakup on a podcast.

15
00:01:07.951 --> 00:01:08.052
Yeah.

16
00:01:08.552 --> 00:01:15.476
An Anthropic employee who has gone public with his decision to leave the company because he believes the technology could help kill humanity.

17
00:01:15.536 --> 00:01:16.817
And then the response to that.

18
00:01:17.458 --> 00:01:24.042
Macklemore being asked to leave Ed Sheeran's tour because he said free Palestine on stage and how Pink is somehow involved in all of this.

19
00:01:24.542 --> 00:01:29.505
Plus Pauline Hanson's plans to slash visas and the comments she made about that Prime Minister's mum.

20
00:01:30.066 --> 00:01:33.248
And then, of course, another Sydney Sweeney ad causing chaos online.

21
00:01:33.268 --> 00:01:33.368
Yeah.

22
00:01:34.068 --> 00:01:37.951
We'll also probably do a bit of an Emmys debrief too, and we'll be doing the Q&amp;A.

23
00:01:38.332 --> 00:01:44.277
So if you have anything you want us to answer, please send it through today on the Besties broadcast channel and we will get to that.

24
00:01:44.777 --> 00:01:46.399
But yeah, it's another enormous week.

25
00:01:46.419 --> 00:01:49.541
So we're just giving ourselves an extra 24 hours to do it properly.

26
00:01:50.262 --> 00:01:51.843
And thank you so much for your patience.

27
00:01:52.123 --> 00:01:53.705
And I'm so sorry that we're a day late.

28
00:01:54.045 --> 00:01:57.308
And we'll see you in your feeds at 5pm on Wednesday.
