Eating For Free


Nov 30, 2023

We're back! From talking about The Jonas Brothers that is... In this week's hot topics special we talk about Jamie Lynn Spears' flop era, the end of #Scandoval, and the dystopian irony of the Squid Games reality show. 

About:

Hosted by journalists Joan Summers and Matthew Lawson, Eating For Free is a weekly podcast that explores gossip and power in the pop culture landscape: Where it comes from, who wields it, and who suffers at the hands of it. Find out the stories behind the stories, as together they look beyond the headlines of troublesome YouTubers or scandal-ridden A-Listers, and delve deep into the inner workings of Hollywood's favorite pastime. The truth, they've found, is definitely stranger than any gossip.
