This week on REWIND: Harry Styles is getting real cheeky with his new Pleasing line—and it is pleasing for sure. Over in Love Island land, JaNa and Kenny’s breakup is OUT OF NOWHERE and messier than expected, and Cierra won’t log off. Should Ghislaine Maxwell actually be pardoned? (We said what we said.) We get into a BIG DISCUSSION on Maverick City Music, their philosophy after one of the founder’s controversial interviews, and discuss how “music business” faith-based music needs to be. Beyoncé reunited Destiny’s Child for the last stop of the Cowboy Carter Tour and now REWIND is (jokingly) beefing with BEY!! Sydney Sweeney’s jean are blue, and her American Eagle campaign is giving flop. Does Fantastic Four leaves us ON FIRE or lukewarm? Finally, The Summer I Turned Pretty is testing our patience, and we figured out why. Pop culture is spiraling and we’re here to unpack it all—hilariously, chaotically, and a little loud & wrong.

This week on REWIND: The Podcast, Raven and Blake are back and coming in hot with a jam-packed episode full of chaos, conspiracies, and Coldplay-level heartbreak. We start with heartfelt condolences as we say farewell this side of Heaven to our favorite Cosby son and legendary rocker. Then, some unhinged spiritual speculation - has Ozzy Osbourne been reincarnated? And is Trisha Paytas quietly assembling a reincarnation roster of prominent figures? We’re asking the questions no one else will. Afterwards, it’s onto one of the wildest relationship stories of the year: why you should never take your sidepiece to a Coldplay concert (especially when your main one’s gonna see it on TikTok). We dig into the Nicolandria fallout, Cierra’s social media spiral, and the Keke Palmer podcast full of wisdom, cause Keke. We also clock Megan Thee Stallion’s soft-launch of her new man and give our honest review of I Know What You Did Last Summer. Plus, Raven shares the highs (and hilarious surprise) of her family reunion, and we dive deep into the dark drama of Eddington—and spoiler alert: it’s not for the faint of heart. Finally, we ask the burning question: is The Summer I Turned Pretty turning into a flop? Get into it!

This week on REWIND: The Podcast, the group chat is on fire. Trump’s wild Epstein list claim has us rolling our eyes, while Gabe gives us every juicy detail from seeing Beyoncé in ATL (SPOILER: GABE DID NOT STEAL THOSE FILES). Paige DeSorbo might’ve found herself a new man as Summer House filming kicks off without her, and Drake’s LeBron tattoo suddenly vanishing for another NBA player has us raising eyebrows. We break down the new Justin Bieber era (TRASH or SMASH?), the internet drama over whether the new Superman movie is “too woke,” and scream over the Love Island winners. On our FYPs this week? The Gen Z stare, Labubus, and more pure chaos. It’s another week of juice here on REWIND.

This week’s episode is a full ride—from heavy to hilarious. We open with a moment of reflection on the devastating flooding in Central Texas and the real-life implications of the Big, Beautiful Bill. Then, things take a turn as Blake returns from his solo L.A. getaway with a story that will live rent-free in his mind and yours. We head east to Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter Tour stop, where the queen delivered a show so good it almost made Raven sick (literally). Then it’s drama, secrets, and island heat as we react to the wild twists in We Were Liars and the latest mess on Love Island. Stream it loud, fam—it’s a good one. 💅🏾✨

While Blake soaks up the sun in L.A., the summer radio continues to play. Before Blake headed to the west coast, the gang turned up the heat in the studio with a fiery debate: What is the ultimate Song of the Summer for each decade? From 90s classics to early 2000s bangers, 2010s anthems, and the still-forming 2020s playlist, we’re fighting (with love) to crown the top track of each era. Expect nostalgia, shade, and some hot takes as we try to do the impossible. Grab your sunnies—this one’s sizzling.

Between viral moments we liked to see involving Love Island drama, Jonathan Bailey’s precious little glasses, and WNBA brawls…we were also greeted with some rockier newsworthy moments such as Trump assisting in bombing Iranian nuclear plants, Drake & Morgan Wallen teaming up, and the allegations that have recently come out against Tyler Perry. Getting on a news app made our heads spin this week. Luckily, we saved YOU the headache and talked about all of these topics this week, here on REWIND: The Podcast.

WE’VE GOT A POCKET, GOT POCKET FULL OF SUNSHINE!! Fresh off seeing the diva Natasha Bedingfield herself, the REWIND crew (Just Blake) is one drink deep and feeling silly. We go from screaming at one another to heartfelt, raw discussion about dating, marriage, life, and more on this brand new episode. First things first, we discuss the NO KINGS PROTESTS that happened last weekend, the same day as Trump’s military parade. Then, we go in all the way on the BET Awards. When it comes to the awards show, are we so back!? Or was it just a good year? Then we discuss the ridiculous controversy behind Sabrina Carpenter’s new album cover, giggle over Carnival Tyler, wonder why Doja Cat was jumping around with a fan she hated, with some stories in between. Next, we discuss the controversial interview between Nene Leakes & TS Madison that had audiences everywhere commenting, which opens up REWIND: The Podcast for a raw and unfiltered conversation on trans visibility, language, and more. Finally, we discuss the new Dakota Johnson, Pedro Pascal, Chris Evans movie - MATERIALISTS, directed by Celine Song. Is it ‘Broke Boy Propaganda’ as the kids are saying?? Or is it a lens into a deeper societal issue. We are ready to get deep and Kiki all at once, so dive in with us.

First things first, we discuss the wild stories coming from Los Angeles during the ICE raids as well as the protests taking place in the city. Then, the girls are fighting (non-derogatory) because it is apparently “over” between Elon & Trump after their very public online feud. Did you catch the TONYS?? Don’t worry, we did!! We are ready to talk all about them — Who was robbed? Who stole the show? Who should host every year? After, the girlies were on our timelines this week. We praise that baddie Coco Gauff and her response to her opponent after whooping her on the tennis court. Is Summer House getting a cast rehaul?? We discuss the pop girlies new singles (Addison, Sabrina, Cynthia). Raven gives the tea on the Tyler Perry movie, “STRAW” that left a profound impact on her (WARNING: SPOILERS). Then, we giggle about the Miley hecklers, Noah Beck sequels, and more on this new episode of REWIND: The Podcast.

We unpack the viral moment with him & SZA, dive into RG3 vs. Ryan Clark over Angel Reese, and throw some well-deserved shade at this year’s flop of an American Music Awards (except Miss Janet, of course!).

ABOUT REWIND: The Podcast - Hosted by the effortlessly charismatic duo Raven Dawson and Blake Rackley, REWIND: The Podcast is where pop culture past meets pop culture present—with a whole lot of personality in between. Fueled by a love for iconic throwbacks and today’s most talked-about moments, these two besties serve up unfiltered opinions, sharp humor, and a deep appreciation for the drama that keeps entertainment interesting. From Y2K nostalgia to red carpet chaos, award show upsets to reality TV scandals, nothing is off-limits. Whether they’re revisiting the cultural staples that defined an era or breaking down the latest internet-breaking headlines, expect hot takes, deep dives, and plenty of side-eye. If your playlist lives somewhere between classic R&B and current chart-toppers, if you still quote your favorite 2000s movies on the daily, and if you love a little (or a lot of) flair with your pop culture commentary—this is the podcast you’ve been waiting for. Press play, lean in, and get ready to REWIND.
