Laura’s convinced her Instagram algorithm is predicting she’s about to get rich, Carmen’s battling peak road rage, and the new Wicked: For Good movie has dropped - which means the Wicked: For Good press tour drama is officially up for discussion. Are Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo okay?!
This week on Shouldn’t Laugh But, Laura and Carmen dive into the funniest, weirdest and most unhinged stories on the internet - including the viral headline about a Florida woman suing SeaWorld after being knocked unconscious by… a duck. You can’t make this stuff up.
Laura also stresses over whether she can be legally sued for her thoughts on the John Lewis 2025 Christmas advert, and the girls celebrate some very iconic Instagram love: Lily Allen, Julia Stiles and Rosanna Arquette have all been liking Shouldn’t Laugh But clips. If it’s good enough for them, it’s good enough for YOU.
Expect pop culture chaos, celebrity commentary, viral news stories, and comedy you “shouldn’t laugh” at… but absolutely will.
