Summary

G’day! On today’s show: Robert Irwin is EVERYWHERE. Dare we say he’s the newest It Boy! He’s just won Dancing With The Stars US, he’s been profiled in the New York Times, and let us not forget that steamy Bonds shoot from earlier this year. So let’s track his glorious rise to global fame, analyse the PR strategy at play here, and unpack the unique legacy of the Irwin family.  This episode of Shameless is brought to you by CeraVe’s Holiday House of Hydration. On today’s show, Gil recommended Matthew Perry Couldn’t Be Boxed In from Vulture. Zara recommended How Colleen Hoover Took Hollywood from Elle. Your hosts are Zara McDonald (@zamcdonald) and today, filling in for Michelle Andrews (@michelleandrews1), we have Eilish Gilligan (@eilishgilligan).  Shameless Podcast is produced by Annabelle Lee and Eilish Gilligan, executive-produced by Lucy Hunt and audio-edited by Eilish Gilligan.
