Amy Schumer’s Blunt Message To The Women...

MAMAMIA PODCASTS
About this episode

On the show today...

Paramount Australia has announced the cast of the new series NCIS: Sydney, the first-ever international series from the popular NCIS franchise. And there are some familiar Australian faces in the lead roles.

Plus, The 76th annual Tony Awards took place over the weekend, honoring the best new stars and shows on Broadway. From a writer's strike-affected ceremony to our favourite movie stars in attendance and a groundbreaking win, let's talk about how a memorable show got overshadowed by some old Glee drama.

And in a recent interview, Amy Schumer appeared to have a blunt message for the women of Hollywood, saying that everyone is lying about using weight loss medications and went on the talk about her own experiences. But instead of falling into the trap of ‘catching out’ famous women, there’s a bigger issue at play here.
