    Ivy Insights

    The Shameless podcast is an absolute gem for anyone who loves pop culture and craves insightful and entertaining discussions on a variety of topics. From weekly updates on the latest celebrity news to deep dives into scandalous events from the past, Zara and Michelle deliver an engaging and well-researched show that keeps listeners hooked from start to finish.

    One of the best aspects of The Shameless podcast is the level of research and journalistic integrity that Zara and Michelle bring to each episode. They go beyond surface-level gossip and provide thoughtful analysis, humanizing the protagonists of each story while also providing context that may have been overlooked. It's refreshing to hear such in-depth discussions on subjects that have made international headlines, giving listeners a fresh perspective on stories they thought they knew everything about.

    Furthermore, The Shameless podcast stands out for its seamless transitions between different parts of each story. The hosts have a knack for storytelling, making listeners feel like they are being taken on a journey rather than just listening to a recap. This captivating approach makes it easy to get lost in each episode, eagerly awaiting the next part of the story.

    However, no podcast is without flaws, and one aspect that could potentially be improved upon is the range of topics covered. While The Shameless podcast does offer a wide array of pop culture subjects, some listeners may find themselves wanting more variety or specific niche topics. Additionally, as an American listener, it would be interesting to hear more about Australian pop culture and how it relates to global trends.

    In conclusion, The Shameless podcast is an absolute must-listen for anyone who loves smart discussions about dumb stuff. With their meticulous research, engaging storytelling style, and genuine passion for their subject matter, Zara and Michelle create a podcast that keeps listeners coming back week after week. Whether you're already a fan or new to the show, The Shameless podcast offers hours of entertainment and escape from reality with its content, making it a standout among other podcasts in the genre.

    Omg it's us! In your podcast feeds! On a Saturday! Why? Well! You might remember that, at the beginning of 2022, we did a three-part Scandal series exploring how Taylor Swift rose, fell, then rose again. Those three episodes are Shameless Media's most downloaded episodes of all time.  As you're already very much aware: a LOT has happened in the Taylor Swift omniverse since we released that three-part series. So much that it… completely justifies… a couple more episodes. So! To celebrate Taylor coming to Australia for the Eras Tour this week, we're taking our most-popular series ever two steps further: to kick everything off we've repackaged our three existing episodes into one bumper podcast for you. Have a trip down memory lane with us here, then enjoy Part Four on Monday and Part Five the week after. This episode was audio produced by Annabelle Lee.
