The Moment with Myf Warhurst

Myf is back for another Monday cultural news roundup. The Castle's stage adaptation is smashing box office records, Madonna and Kylie's World Pride reunion and this year's Mercury Music Prize nominees. Myf then takes a deep dive into the "influencer recession". Why aesthetic content no longer cuts it, the rise of Substack and newsletter culture as an antidote to AI slop, and why rage bait still wins even though we're all exhausted by it. Myf wraps up with the controversial announcement about next year's Met Gala exhibition.*Hosted by the queen of culture herself, *The Moment with Myf Warhurst* unpacks ‘The Moment’ that has everyone talking, diving deeper than the headlines to give the details you need in the time you’ve got. Stay ConnectedInstagram @myfwarhurstTikTok @myfwarhurstLinkedIn Myf WarhurstGet In TouchBrands/ Partnerships: Myf@mik.studioShow CreditsHost & Executive Producer: Myf WarhurstExecutive Producer: Amelia ChappelowProducer: Roisin YauEngineer & Editing: Grant OffnerVideo Producer: Lauren CooperCopywriter & Strategy: Antonia MinutoloPhotography: Julia NallesArtwork: Brigitte GreenePartnerships: Dylan Adams hello@mik.studioThis is a MIK Made production Recorded on Wurundjeri Land

Ella Hooper joins Myf for a chat about music, creativity and life. Ella’s band Killing Heidi are back to celebrate the 40th anniversary of The Push at the massive Pushover gig that launched her career at age 13. They talk about why it's never been harder to make a living from music, why Nashville has become her happy place, the creative life as a way of processing the big stuff and why crafternoons might literally save lives. Guest:Ella Hooper (@ella_hooper)Push Over - Sat, 21 Nov 2026.

There's a particular kind of unravelling happening to women in their forties and fifties right now, and Em Rusciano has made it her whole body of work. She joins Myf to talk about the morning she woke up and realised she'd built her entire personality around being chosen by someone else, and what she did next. And the biggest moment for them both in music: why Madonna's new record has an entire generation of women weeping on dance floors, the unexpected gift of losing your oestrogen, what men's dating profiles reveal about how badly we've let them down, and why the best albums of the year are all being made by women over 40 who have finally stopped trying to fit in.
