Bang On #250: Padam Padam, Apple Vision Pro, Succession
It’s our 250th episode and a bumper Bang! A very Padam to you all, yep we’ll chat about the epic career of Kylie who continues to hit the charts. Danni is doing pretty well too, while we’re here.
Given it’s a special occasion, a special guest and member of the Bang Fam is dropping by. Virginia Trioli (AKA DJ Trigger) shares her thoughts on Sex and the City, female friendships, ghosting, all of it. What a treat.
The meme machine has been in overdrive at Apple’s announcement of it’s Augmented Reality headset and we’re living our best Black Mirror lives. So how does it work, and what does it mean for the future? We’ll dig in with our thoughts on this, and some other fun updates from Silicon Valley.
Myf has caught up on Succession, and we have a bonus bang at the very end for anyone who wants to debrief with us on family and boardrooms. And we’re banging on about Tim Ross’s new architecture series, and a great new book from Curtis Sittenfield.
