What the hosts said

LOn Repeat is live, and the music world is already arguing at full volume.
CEmily Osment just told Variety she needed an intimacy coordinator on Young Sheldon because her co-star Montana Jordan was... and I quote... "a baby with a mullet."
LHe was eighteen when they started filming. She was thirty.
CShe says the age gap made her uncomfortable, so she went to the showrunner and they brought in someone to handle it.
LHonestly? That's a pro move. She saw the situation, flagged it, and got it fixed.
CAnd the description of him is flawless. A baby with a mullet. That's Georgie Cooper in five words.
LNow for the film news that's either genius or a disaster waiting to happen.
CIGN reports Alex Garland's Elden Ring movie is carrying a budget of almost two hundred million dollars.
LIf that's right, it makes it A24's most expensive movie ever. By a lot.
CA24 is the studio that built its entire brand on twenty-million-dollar weird little masterpieces. Now they're swinging for two hundred mill on a video game adaptation.
LAnd Alex Garland is brilliant, but his movies are slow, philosophical, and deliberately confusing. Elden Ring is... also deliberately confusing, actually.
CThe game's lore is a jigsaw puzzle with half the pieces missing. Maybe he's the perfect guy for it.
LOr maybe A24 just wrote the biggest check in its history to watch a two-hundred-million-dollar movie about a guy who never speaks and a tree that's on fire.
CYou say that like it's a bad thing. I'd watch that.
