Show Notes
On today's show, we're diving deep into Netflix's gripping new Australian series Apple Cider Vinegar, which tells the infamous story of wellness scammer Belle Gibson.
From Kaitlyn Dever's eerily perfect Australian accent to the fascinating creative liberties taken with the real story, there are so many layers to unpack in this six-part drama that has everyone talking. We've broken down how the show manages to turn this well-known Australian scandal into a compelling commentary on the early days of Instagram and the dark side of the wellness industry.
Plus, we need to discuss the controversial portrayal of wellness warrior Jess Ainscough through the fictional character of Milla Blake.
