Myf is back for another Monday cultural news roundup. The Castle's stage adaptation is smashing box office records, Madonna and Kylie's World Pride reunion and this year's Mercury Music Prize nominees. Myf then takes a deep dive into the "influencer recession". Why aesthetic content no longer cuts it, the rise of Substack and newsletter culture as an antidote to AI slop, and why rage bait still wins even though we're all exhausted by it. Myf wraps up with the controversial announcement about next year's Met Gala exhibition. *Hosted by the queen of culture herself, *The Moment with Myf Warhurst* unpacks ‘The Moment’ that has everyone talking, diving deeper than the headlines to give the details you need in the time you’ve got.
