    More and more young women are opting not to have sex. In today's episode, Holly, Mia and Jessie discuss the celebrity-endorsed female celibacy movement that’s so hot right now. 

    Plus, last week one very problematic famous person took off his shirt and partook in a very public washing away of his sins (in some very dirty water). Inside the rehabilitation of Russell Brand.  

    And, do you need anybody? Probably, yes. Is that a weakness, or a strength? Jessie wants to bust the myth of co-dependency.

    The Baby Reindeer Interview Unpacked

    In case you missed it (and well how could you...), the biggest show on Netflix is Baby Reindeer. And now Piers Morgan has interviewed the woman who claims to be the 'real-life Martha'.

    In this episode, we unpack the full 55-minute interview with Fiona Harvey that everyone is talking about. Plus we discuss how it has shaped our opinions, and share our mixed feelings about the ethics of the interview.

    Can we really take fashion advice from The Met Gala? Apparently so. We unpack the stand outs from the outfits that make it seemingly impossible to walk, sit, pee or eat.

    Melbourne schoolboys have been expelled for ranking their female classmates in a particularly brutal way. We have thoughts. 

    The Bachelor... will not be receiving a rose. After 11 years, the Aussie Bachelor has officially been cancelled. Jessie shares a compelling theory as to why.

One sided

Long time listener but had to unfollow due to the clear biased and unethical views of the genocide coming out of Palestine. Disappointing coming from a company that strives on being feminists but only when it relates to you right? I would much rather support and invest in other women owned media companies.

Shameful on Gaza

Shocking! Unbelievable! Mia and the whole production should be ashamed. Zionist propaganda. Clearly have no idea about the protests or choose to have no idea and focus on some hurt feelings? Jewish does not = Zionist! There are so many Jewish students protesting too Mia, perhaps talk to them?!

Naded L ,

A sad demise

I used to really genuinely respect and admire these 3. Their hustle, their laughter. But the veil has sadly been lifted. I’ve unfolded on socials and unsubscribed. Their faux feminism on Gaza and their nepotism has been exposed. It’s genuinely upsetting and I’m sorry to have to say goodbye. But I can’t stick around
