We’re starting off the weekend with two excellent panelists: Anne Helen Petersen, Work Appropriate podcast host and writer of the newsletter “Culture Study,” and Nick Quah, Vulture’s podcast critic. We discuss the late night hosts turned daytime podcasters, the gender reveal of cocktail glasses, and Meg Ryan’s return to the romcom.

Then, we talk about a brewing reckoning in reality television. Real Housewives of New York alum Bethany Frankel called out Bravo for exploitation of its reality show cast members and a lawsuit may be in the works. Lawyer and pop culture writer Claudia Rosenbaum fills us in.
