Show Notes
This week on Bestie Boos, we’ve got celebrity chaos, parenting tactics and a Saturday morning plot twist we genuinely didn’t see coming. 😂
First up, Taylor Swift’s dress at the Academy Museum Gala has us asking: is ANYONE safe from a boob tube?! 💀
Plus, Miley Cyrus is back performing live, and we’re chatting about her rare Hollywood Bowl shows, her music and the rumours swirling around her.
We’re diving into the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, Kylie Jenner’s appearance, Jade from Little Mix and her Angel of My Dreams era, plus Dylan Sprouse and his wife Barbara. We also touch on Christina Applegate’s latest health update... wtf!
lMeanwhile, Miller’s birthday party delivered an parenting win after Sarah and her mate came up with a very effective text involving an updated RSVP. Let’s just say the behaviour improved, and he made it to the party! 😂 Parenting: sometimes it’s all about the delivery.
And then there’s Saturday morning… Sam and Sarah travelled across town for something new, something Sarah never thought she’d convince Sam to do. 👀
In What We’re Vibing, we’re talking Nobody Wants This — which we LOVED. The storyline was epic, and we have THOUGHTS. Plus, we chat about Be My Eyes, an app connecting blind and low-vision people with sighted volunteers for visual assistance. ❤️
Another week of pop culture, parenting wins, questionable decisions and bestie chaos. Welcome to the group chat. 🍋💕
_____________________ Bestie Boos is a New Zealand podcast hosted by best friends Sam Baxter and Sarah Direen. Every week, the girls dive into friendship, motherhood, relationships, careers, pop culture, celebrity news, entertainment, reality TV, music, internet trends, viral moments and the everyday chaos of life. With a Christchurch and Kiwi perspective, Sam and Sarah also share the more personal parts of their own stories.
