So… Are we all officially breaking up with Ticketmaster?
Thursday, 4 December, 2025

Franklin The Turtle was co-opted by Team Trump and now our childhoods are ruined. We’ve all reached our breaking point with Ticketmaster but Olivia Dean did something about it. Whales are being given breathalysers and don’t even want to talk to a lawyer first. Ozempic is about to go generic in Canada - so are all the GLP-1 drugs, aka “gotta lose pounds” shots. Gavin Crawford quizzes comedians Martha Chaves, Alice Moran and Craig Lauzon about what happened in the news this week. If you’re too afraid to share your opinions on social media, that’s okay!
