Every day, in every newsroom around the world, there's a meeting to decide what leads the news.

It's often argumentative and occasionally heated.

In this new podcast, you'll get to hear the argument for yourself.

As each week, three journalists pitch the story they think mattered most.

And at the end of each episode, I'll decide what comes out on top.

I'm James Harding and from Podomo and Tortoise, this is the News Meeting.

Find it wherever you get your podcasts.

Now this is a scam podcast. Welcome back to Gossip Scams.

Hello everyone and welcome to the first bonus episode of season two.

If you're listening to this and being like, wait, that's not Kelsey, you're right.

I'm Alexie John Loughlin. I'm the producer of this show.

And I've also got our editor, Justin Ellis here.

Hello, Alex. Hello, Justin. Before we get into the chaos that is this bonus episode,

I just wanted to quickly remind you that we are currently on our season break between seasons two and three

because Kelsey and I and the rest of our team need rest.

But we are still putting out episodes on our super secret subscriber feed.

If you want access to that, become a friend or a friend of a friend at supportnormalgossip.com.

Each month we're publishing a new episode featuring a friend level subscriber who will come on and tell Kelsey

a gossip story. So if you subscribe at the friend level, then you can be entered into a pool to become

that subscriber. When you become a friend level subscriber, you also get added to our close friend

circle on Instagram. And so we will follow you and we'll share some bonus content with you throughout

the break. Normal gossip is part of de facto media, which is a subscriber-based media company.
