    Meeting in the Middle: Nazis and Cross Stitch

    The world is more divided than ever, and to help us make sense of it all, we asked former neo-Nazi leader Jeff Schoep to join us on air this week. Jeff explains the cult-like echo chambers, the pull of identity and belonging, and why “meeting in the middle” with patience and curiosity works better than shaming. He now works through his nonprofit to help others exit, stressing the need to replace lost purpose and community with healthier pursuits.   Facebook  Instagram     The Double A Chattery podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice.

    AI: Less Robot Overlord, More Super-charged Advisor

    This week, we welcomed academic and former tech/finance exec George Robinson to the show to demystify AI. George reframes AI as a practical “capability” rather than a scary black box — less robot overlord, more super-charged advisor that can search, synthesise, and help you make smarter decisions.     Facebook  Instagram     The Double A Chattery podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice.

    What Are We Doing to Our Kids By Keeping Them Young?

    Today: modern coming-of-age (and whether we’re actually letting kids come of age at all). From hyper-styled Bridgerton dorm rooms to parents calling professors and even bosses, we're wrestling with overprotective trends, what counts as care vs. control, and the line between comfort and infantilisation — yes, including adults with plushies.   Facebook  Instagram     The Double A Chattery podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice.

    Memory, Truth, and the Stories We Tell Ourselves

    We're exploring the slippery nature of memory — how it shapes our identities, influences our beliefs, and sometimes leads us astray. Prompted by recent controversy over the memoir The Salt Path, we unpack the fine line between truth, embellishment, and outright fabrication in personal storytelling.    Facebook  Instagram     The Double A Chattery podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice.

    When Book Clubs Go Bad

    Fresh from the Logies red carpet, Amanda shares what it’s really like to survive a late-night TV awards show on two glasses of wine and four hours’ sleep. Then, she and Anita turn their attention to book clubs — why we love them, why they sometimes implode, and the delicate balance between friendship, leadership, and actually finishing the book. From Oprah’s “reading revolution” to passive-aggressive surveys, fake book clubbers, and their own hilariously named BBBC, the Chattery duo explore why book clubs are thriving again post-COVID, what happens when they go off the rails, and how reading really is the antidote to endless scrolling.   Facebook  Instagram     The Double A Chattery podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice.

    Is Witchcraft Just a Form of Female Empowerment?

    This week, Anita got us talking about WitchTok—yes, witchcraft on TikTok—and the wild world of buying spells on Etsy.
