  • This is the Guardian.

  • Just to let you know, this week's episode does include some swearing and we talk about drug addiction too.

  • This week we're looking at two huge celebrity stories.

  • First, the sad parting of Matthew Perry, best known as Chandlerla Bing in Friends.

  • Please, could she be be more out of my league?

  • Raj, back me up here.

  • And oh yeah, genuine.

  • What's up, homie?

  • Britney's back.

  • But this time it's her tell all memoir.

  • If you haven't read it, we've got you covered.

  • You're listening to Pop Culture with me, Shantae Joseph for the Guardian.

  • Late on Saturday night, the news broke that Matthew Perry had died.

  • The iconic Friends star passed away at 54 and it really felt like world shaking news.

  • Since then, his Friends co stars put out a joint statement and in New York, fans have been laying flowers on the sidewalk outside the friend's apartment.

  • He's had these really well documented struggles with addiction and it felt like a kind of redemption narrative.

  • And then he dies so young.

  • You know, he's only 54.

  • He was only 54.

  • So that just felt, that just felt really sad from a kind of human, objective point of view.
