About this listen

We watched 28 Years Later and noticed something strange: the "naked" zombies aren't actually naked. Turns out 80-90% of what you see on screen is completely fake. From White Lotus to Euphoria to Pam & Tommy, Hollywood actors are wearing carefully crafted prosthetics instead of the real thing.


Why the sudden shift? We investigate the rise of intimacy coordinators, the on-set rules that changed everything, and the surprising industry behind Hollywood's most realistic fake body parts.


Discover how one Australian lawyer-turned-intimacy coordinator revolutionized filmmaking, why major productions now budget thousands for prosthetics, and what directors like Danny Boyle look for when selecting the "perfect" prosthetic for their alpha zombies.


It's a fascinating look at how modern Hollywood balances artistic vision, actor comfort, and legal protection—all while keeping audiences fooled.
