    What Osher Günsberg did next

    It’s been a big year for Osher Günsberg. In March, he turned 50.

On this episode of Something To Talk About, Osher joins Sarrah to chat about how he learnt to be better prepared for life to change on a dime, the personal health struggles he chronicles in his new documentary A World Of Pain - and what might draw him back to television.

    Sophie Cachia on her pregnancy, her new partner – and what’s none of your business

Almost immediately, intrigue and speculation ramped up, as people began to question the baby’s paternity and whether there was more to her happy story.On this episode of Something To Talk About, Sophie sets the record straight – answering questions about why she is having another baby on her terms, confronting rumours that her ex-husband Jaryd was her sperm donor, and reveals she is in a new relationship with AFLW player Madison Prespakis.

    At the movies with David Stratton

    Before he retired last year, David Stratton spent nearly six decades reviewing movies. And millions of Australians came to know and love him thanks to an on-air partnership with fellow critic Margaret Pomeranz, which turned them into household names and one of the most beloved double acts in the country.  On the show today, David joins Sarrah from his home – where he is still watching one, and often two, movies each day – to discuss his latest project, a book that chronicles three pivotal decades in Australian film; his enduring friendship with Margaret; his thoughts on some of his most infamous reviews – including an initially lukewarm reaction to comedy classic The Castle, and another that landed him in hot water with Julie Andrews - and the one film he thought was so awful he walked out of the cinema. David Stratton’s new book Australia At The Movies is available to purchase here. Something To Talk About is a podcast by Stellar, hosted by Editor-In-Chief Sarrah Le Marquand.

    Shaynna Blaze’s second act

    Tina Arena, unchained: triumph, heartbreak and being “burnt at the stake”

    In the 30 years since Tina Arena stormed the charts with her hit song ‘Chains’, the powerhouse singer has become a vocal force to be reckoned with and one of the most successful Australian artists ever.  On the eve of a tour revisiting the 1994 album that would become a pivotal turning point in her career, Tina sits down with Something To Talk About for a no-holds-barred chat as she reflects on her beginnings as a child star (including the story of how she came to adopt her stage name), explains why she has never been afraid to speak her mind, calls out the “boring” narrative that pits successful women against one another - and reveals the heartbreak of being separated from her teenage son since the pandemic.  In celebration of the 30th anniversary of Don’t Ask, Tina Arena will head on tour in November 2024. She has also re-released a remix of Chains with Melbourne duo SHOUSE. Something To Talk About is a podcast by Stellar, hosted by Editor-In-Chief Sarrah Le Marquand.

    Emma Watkins on work, Wiggles & alter egos

    It’s been three years since Emma Watkins left the Wiggles - an announcement that broke the hearts of children everywhere (and one that left plenty of parents upset, too). Emma made history when she became the first-ever female Wiggle in 2013, but as she toured the world as the Yellow Wiggle, she was also carving out time to explore her other passions. She studied for her PhD, which explored creative ways to use sign language and dance in children’s media. Ideas were brewing, and though she knew she would disappoint her young fans, Emma also knew she needed to back herself.  It was worth it: she has gone on to create a new and hugely popular alter ego, Emma Memma. She is running a business alongside her husband Oliver. And she is about to host a new ABC series that brought her back in contact with many of the children and families who had known and loved her as Emma Wiggle.  You can see Emma Watkins on Teenage Boss: Next Level airing on the ABC from October 12th 2024.  Something To Talk About is a podcast by Stellar, hosted by Editor-In-Chief Sarrah Le Marquand.

    Zoë Foster Blake: “How am I doing it all? At great cost”

    With 17 books to her name, a cult beauty brand she sold for big bucks and bought back for a steal - not to mention a household featuring two children, a Gold Logie-winning husband, and a couple of Instagram-famous cats - the life of Zoë Foster Blake is not exactly calm.  Zoë joins Sarrah in the Something To Talk About studio to discuss the cost-benefit juggle of multiple ventures, how going into business “knowing nothing” turned out to be everything, the reality (and importance) of failure behind the public success - and to take us inside her first adult novel in a decade, Things Will Calm Down Soon.  You can purchase Zoë Foster Blake’s new book Things Will Calm Down Soon through Atlantic Books Australia on October 1st 2024.     Something To Talk About is a podcast by Stellar, hosted by Editor-In-Chief Sarrah Le Marquand.
