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.

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.
