One woman has gone viral for listing all the reasons why she doesn’t want to have kids (including vaginal changes, swelling and general noise), but looking at the list do we blame her?

Plus, one brand is allegedly air-brushing stretchmarks ON to their models now. Is this progress or just cynical marketing?

And, consent at hens and bucks parties… we unpack one very tricky dilemma.

The End Bits: 


Listen to our latest episode: A Candid Debrief About The Crown
Read: 'I shared a list of 117 reasons I don't want children. The response reiterated my point.'

Are you hearing the term “both-sidesism”? We dive into what it is and why senior Australian media figures have called it out.

Plus, Brad Pitt’s kids think he’s an “awful human being” and Holly can’t believe it. But celebrity kids airing their family drama isn’t exactly new... are we sensing a pattern?

And, have we given dating apps the boot? Swiping non-stop feels like a part-time gig for Gen Z, but how are other generations feeling about looking for love online?

The End Bits: 


Listen to our latest subscriber episode: Mia Needs An Intervention
Read: Brad Pitt's children have shared their feelings about their famous father and none of it is positive.
Read: Being on dating apps is a bin fire. Here are the most unhinged messages we've ever received.

RECOMMENDATION: Holly wants you to watch Robbie Williams on Netflix

We need to talk about season 6 of The Crown. Holly’s been shouting at the TV, while Mia’s obsessing over the Princess Diana plot line, and Jessie? Well, she couldn’t care less.

Plus, comedian Matt Rife has decided he doesn’t want women in his audiences anymore. So he’s told an offensive joke to repel them all. We discuss.

And, we wrap up our best and worst of the which, which includes; some rules around sleep, a new hair do and a very sad story about birds.

The End Bits: 


Listen to our latest episode: Mia Needs An Intervention
Read: Comedian Matt Rife is being slammed for a sexist joke. What he actually did is much worse.
Read: Gen Z's favourite comedian thinks being hot is hurting his career.

RECOMMENDATION: Mia wants you to check out Trapple

The largest Australian radio deal of all time has just been announced, locking in another 10 years for Kyle & Jackie O for a huge sum. They certainly weren’t shy about revealing their earnings this time around, but is this transparency refreshing or problematic?

Plus, ethical non-monogamy is everywhere. But what is it and is it actually ‘ethical’? We discuss.

And, would Clare and Jessie Stephens like us to stop referring to them as “the twins”? Turns out Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are sick of it and would like us all to recognise that they are, in fact, two separate entities.

The End Bits: 


Listen to our latest episode: Jessie’s Ready To Revisit 'As A Mother'
Listen to Mia's No Filter with Jackie O: Jackie O On What She Wishes She'd Known About Divorce
Read: Kyle Sandilands, Jackie O and the biggest deal in radio history.
Read: Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen just explained why they almost never do interviews.

RECOMMENDATION: Jessie wants you to try the MCoBeauty Sheer Tint Lip Balm

Harry Styles might be balding and Justin Timberlake is definitely dad-dancing. Has ageism finally come for the famous men? Part of Holly thinks it’s about damn time.

Plus, the ‘What About Me’ effect. Why do we expect everything we see on the internet to be perfectly tailored to us and should we just get over ourselves?

And, is scheduling a weekend brunch something to look forward to? Or does it disturb the flow of our once-loved slow weekends? 

The End Bits: 


Listen to our latest episode: Okay Fine. We'll Tell You Our Ghost Stories
Read Laura Brodnik's piece: 'Brunch is ruining my entire life, and probably yours too.'
Read: The theory behind Harry Styles' new buzz cut.

There are two types of people: A) the person who invites everyone to everything and B) the person who wants a strict guest list when hosting an event. Which one are you?

Plus, did that vase just move on its own? After listening to an eerie podcast about ghosts, Holly, Jessie and Elfy share their own spooky stories.

And, we wrap up our best and worst of the week which includes… the world, brilliant women and an unsponsored discussion about Jessie's favourite new place to shop.
