On this week's soup, we cover some flop topics surrounding the SAG-AFTRA strike that kicked off this past week. As we dig deeper into SAG tangents, we uncover further flops -- including the heated election that ended in Fran Drescher snatching the SAG-AFTRA Presidency, as well as Ryan Murphy's many antics while strikes surround his productions. Turns out a coalition of actors isn't without its own drama.

We then cover Troye Sivan's Rush music video and all the floppy body-shaming discourse surrounding it. As we dissect our opinions on the matter, we're led right back to Padam Padam, as all roads tend do.
