Muriel's Wedding: Marrying for the wrong reasons, on purpose (opens the original)
Read excerpt
"Your'e terrible Muriel!" From ABBA and bad bridesmaids to family dysfunction and finding your people, we revisit the Australian classic Muriel’s Wedding. Alice and Saj ask whether Muriel’s journey from Porpoise Spit to Sydney still holds up, and whether beneath all the camp, comedy and iconic one-liners lies something about Australian culture that is much darker than we remember.
Trainspotting: Whose choice was it anyway? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Thirty years on, we watch Trainspotting , and Alice and Saj ask what gets lost when a film about addiction, and poverty becomes shorthand for "cool nihilism?" Renton's "choose life" monologue plays as rebellion, but whose choices were ever really on the table? Come along and listen to this 2026 rewatch of class, masculinity, and the difference between refusing a system and having no access to it in the first place.
