A Kiwi clothing brand will no longer make plus sized clothing. In a post on social media, Augustine owner Kelly Coe explained they're focusing on the core of their business and what works best for them. “We tried for years to dress our curvy babes and in the end we just got left with so much stock that ends up in our outlet store, it's simply not sustainable." Coe told Kerre Woodham that in the beginning, there wasn't the same competition from international brands and cheap fast fashion that there is now. She says their plus sized garments did really well in the beginning, but they don't anymore, and they just can't keep growing bigger and bigger to cater for everybody. Around 90% of their sales are in the size 8 to 16 range, Coe says, and has been for quite a while. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Louis XIV is dead, and his heir is a 5-year-old child. With so many deaths occurring in the royal family, it falls to an unlikely royal nephew, Philippe, duke of Orléans, to govern France until Louis XV comes of age. Completely unlike the callous old Sun King, Philippe is a man of the people who spurned Versailles and lived as a boisterous libertine.

The Louis XIII of Alexandre Dumas's "The Three Musketeers" is a comically naïve and easily manipulated do-nothing king, dominated by his scheming chief minister Cardinal Richelieu. But as we're about to learn, the history is a little more complicated when you consider that Louis did have military victories, he struggled against debilitating chronic illness, and France owes a lot more than expected to his partnership with the cardinal. But is this enough to spare Louis XIII from the guillotine? ⚜️ Visit our Wordpress for episode images, score summaries, contact details and more!

Whoosh, what a week! Taylor Swift's American fans are freaking out about the MCG's lack of car park, Beyoncé has made history on the country charts, and we are put in our place with Dan Akroyd's musical chops.The new Spider-verse film has opened, and the coverage around Madame Web has been ferocious. Quotes taken out of context, conspiracy theories hatched... the narrative around the press tour has subsumed reviews of the film itself. It speaks to a larger discourse around movies these days, where the internal worlds of production take over meaningful critique of the film itself, and all in the name of clickbait. Oh, we go in.Elsewhere, lawn mowing is viral, the bush is back (again) and big hair's return says more than just hairspray sales.
