Oh, rats. We’ve found the show of our girly pop, sing-song, bubble gum, y2k dreams. It is KATSEYE: POP STAR ACADEMY on Netflix and today we are doing a phaaaaat chat on it all.
As well as unpacking why this K Pop girl-group-forming-competition-show is up there with our faves of the year, we also chat the ins and outs and comedies of voice over work, our fave and least fave kinds of ads, our fave Kristen Chenoweth TikTok and so much more.
Oh. Also Mel is hoodwinked by a suspiciously placed packet of sultanas. It’s all very important stuff.
OH AND PLEASE DO COME SEE US AT OUR VERY FIRST LIVE PODCAST!!

Mel & Sam would like to acknowledge that Ratbag is being recorded on Stolen Land.
The original custodians of this land have had a rich history of storytelling for over 65,000 years, and we pay our respects to the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation whose land we are recording Ratbag on.
Treaties were never signed. Sovereignty was never ceded. Always was and always will be Aboriginal land.
