The Quicky Mamamia

Recently, yet another Australian school has found itself in the midst of controversy surrounding the behaviour of some of their male students. 

The students had created and circulated a spreadsheet with the names of their fellow female classmates. It included photos of the girls alongside a ranking system from wifeys, cuties, mids, objects, get out and unrapable. 

When news broke about this, a lot of people asked why? 

In this episode of The Quicky, we speak to a man who, as a teenager, said something horrific about a female peer, to find out why he said it, and what he thinks about it all these years later.

What’s in a name? Apparently some of us have a long rich history behind our monikers… others were plucked from pop culture.

Every year the list of top baby names is released there’s always a frenzy to compare and contrast, predicting how many Matilda’s or Olivia’s will be entering the year one classroom in a matter of years.

How does a baby name even become popular, or lost to the sands of time? We’re diving into the data on today’s episode.
