    Sex With Your Best Friend

    Sex With Your Best Friend

    Should you marry your best friend? Can your spouse really be your bestie? 

    In today's episode, Holly, Mia, and Em Vernem are unpacking relationship and friendship dynamics.

    We discuss the different roles the most important people in our lives play, including who is at the top of the leaderboard (in true Mia style), what you share with your partner versus your best mate, and Em reveals what it feels like to see a best friend give "bestie credit" to their boyfriend (ouch).

    Princess Kate is back at work, attending the Trooping of the Colour for the King's birthday. In photos she looked pristine and happy, which has lead some to comment that it's not what we expect someone who is receiving cancer treatment to look like. So, now that Kate Watch is back, how do we feel?

    Also, have you heard? It’s never been tougher to be a 30-something in Australia. Millennials are struggling with cozzie livs and turning to Boomers and Gen Xers for help. We discuss. 

    And, the six-minute-long Bridgerton sex scene everyone's talking about. Why is it such a big deal to see a curvy actress being intimate on screen?

    In this episode, Holly, Mia and Em Vernem unpack what they really think about cheating. From the complexities of infidelity and forgiveness, to whether or not a relationship can recover after someone cheats, and why we think this topic infuriates so many people.  

    Plus, your weekly recommendations which include a now iconic Aussie comedy, a single woman’s fury and Mia’s new obsession. 

    And, from side friends, contagious bleeding and an idle long weekend, it's our best and worst of the week.

    Group Therapy: The ‘Sexy Dress’ Dilemma

    What happens when you have a dilemma and you need some advice? You reach out to your friends and have a group therapy session. 

    In today's very first group therapy episode Holly, Mia and guest host Emily Vernem give advice to an Outlouder, whose 23 year old daughter had a terrible experience on a night out for her birthday. The Outlouder says she doesn’t know how to support her daughter who is feeling despondent in the aftermath.

    It's a tricky scenario most women will come across in their life, so what is the right thing to do?

    A wedding, a nasty divorce and a whole new Kate gate, it's Holly's royal round up. 

    Also, have you ever heard of grey rock theory? It might just be the answer for getting through conversations with difficult people. We explain. 

    And, the return of the lads’ mag. Are middle-aged men nostalgic for a time of what they call "innocent ogling"? We have some thoughts.
