  1. A Fight About Who’s Allowed To Have A Crush

    A Fight About Who’s Allowed To Have A Crush

    Is having a crush the secret to a happy relationship, or the gateway drug to a ruinous affair? We can’t agree. Meanwhile, comedian Nikki Glaser says that sexual cheating is a turn-on and emotional cheating is a no-no. Who’s right, who’s deluded, and who should just be single, according to Emily Vernem? Plus, enthusiasm for hobbies is at an-all time high, but why does it feel like men get all the good ones, while women get the leftovers of leisure? Holly Wainwright talks about her life-changing gardening habit, but acknowledges it’s first to go when life gets busy. So what’s an untouchable 'Sovereign Hobby', and how do we get one?  And, there is an unofficial list of things women do to look like they have their shit together, and it involves everything from keeping whites white, to having enough coathangers, to knowing what stock is. Clare Stephens just wishes she could remember the snacks. TV RECCOS SPECIAL Clare’s watching: DTF St. Louis on HBO Max. A dark, nonlinear comedy about a love triangle, a dating app for married people, and David Harbour being incredibly likable. Holly’s watching: Riot Women on SBS. Created by Happy Valley’s Sally Wainwright, it’s a brilliant look at five middle-aged women who decide to form a punk band. Em’s watching: Margo’s Got Money Troubles on Apple TV. Starring Elle Fanning, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Nick Offerman, it’s the story of a college dropout navigating new motherhood and mounting bills. SUBSCRIPTION GIVEAWAY: Win a $2,000 Bed Threads voucher.

    SUBS: Mia's Uncomfortable Aha Moment About Friendship

    Mia is having a moment — and by moment, we mean a full-blown existential crisis — over the ‘Four Burners Theory.’ In today’s subscriber episode, Mia and Amelia Lester are unpacking whether work-life balance is actually just a series of deliberate choices about which burner you're willing to turn off. Plus, Mia has an epiphany as she realises she’s been turning down the ‘friends’ burner for the past twenty years. Also, they discuss the new generation of celebrity mums like Kylie Jenner and Jennifer Lawrence who treat family and motherhood as a side note rather than their public persona. Whether you're in a 'family', 'friends', 'health' or 'work' season, this conversation is the permission slip you didn't know you needed to stop striving for the impossible.  What To Listen To Next:  Listen to our latest episode: A Podcast Feud & Hanging Out With Prince Harry Listen: She's Back!

  3. A Podcast Feud & Hanging Out With Prince Harry

    A Podcast Feud & Hanging Out With Prince Harry

    So the ‘royal tour that isn’t’ is in full swing and we have an insider call from Melbourne. Our friend Amy Clark was hanging out with Harry at a men's mental health event this morning, and tells us everything, including which Australian celebrities upstaged the Duke/Prince. But as Harry and Meghan’s itinerary unfurls, Holly Wainwright asks: Is it ballsy or cheeky to be pulling off exactly the kind of tour once reserved for active, working royals?  Plus, as Susan Coyle becomes Australia’s first female Army Chief, the celebrations are almost being drowned out by the sexist trolling. The swampy internet discourse feels gutting for every woman who has ever worked her way to the top only to be met with a chorus of 'DEI hire'. Amelia Lester is unpacking: Should women just ignore the trolling these wins attract, or does that leave us living in a fake reality?  And, 'hey, girl'. Clare Stephens has researched to PhD level the 'Alex vs. Alix' podcast feud. We’ve got Alex Cooper (the Call Her Daddy mogul) and Alix Earle (the Hot Mess creator) throwing passive-aggressive shade over TikTok about 'fake drama' and 'rock bottom' content. Is it a manufactured publicity stunt for an upcoming interview? Or is there genuine jealousy over a Super Bowl commercial and (gosh) Adam Sandler cameos? Meanwhile, over in Scurrilous Gossip, JLo is reportedly hooking up with Ted Lasso’s Roy Kent (aka Brett Goldstein), and we are invested. Apparently, he's the 'best kisser' she’s ever worked with, which is quite the claim. But is it real?  SUBSCRIBE here: Support independent women's media  What To Listen To Next:  Listen to our latest episode: She's Back!

    SUBS: She's Back! Mia Confronts Rival Anne Stephens On 'Nana Rules'

    The secret Nana rivalry you all frothed over is back for round two! Today, Mia Freedman continues her deep dive with the woman she’s feeling a little bit competitive with: Anne Stephens, mother of Jessie and Clare and grandmother extraordinaire. From the Nana ‘leaderboard’ to the chaos of raising two sets of twins, Anne is back to drop some serious wisdom on what it’s really like when your children have children - and your twin daughter has twins. Plus, they compare notes on the Nana name rivalry and Mia explains why she ultimately gave up on being called ‘Mimi’. So, which one of them is now officially referred to as ‘Other Nana’?  Also, they explore the similarities in their family values and their different approach to weddings, where one side is there for the drinks and the other side is strictly focused on the dessert buffet. And, Anne shares her unfiltered thoughts on the ‘Golden Rule of Grandparenting'. What To Listen To Next:  Listen to our latest episode: Quick Question: Why Are You So Annoying?

    Famesickness & A Towel Debate That Split The Pod

    It’s Harry and Meghan week in Australia, and we’re hoping for some big news in Jam World.  A lot has changed since the last time they were here and Clare Stephens waited outside the Opera House to touch Prince Harry’s hand. So what can we expect from the royal-not-royal tour? Bieberchella has broken the internet and healed a lot of Millennial hearts. Between a $10 million pay check and a setlist that involved Justin dueting with his childhood self, Em Vernem is asking: Is this a profound moment of healing, or just a very expensive therapy session we were all forced to watch? In other business, Melania Trump decided that this chaotic moment in world affairs was the right moment to make an unprompted address about her "friendship" with Jeffrey Epstein.  And Lena Dunham is releasing a memoir reflecting on fast fame. Her honesty about what peak spotlight did to her coupled with one of the world’s most profitable writers finally revealing her identity, Holly Wainwright is asking: If you could make the art and the money without the fame, why on earth would you choose to be known? Oh, and as the Federal Government launches a campaign telling us all to do our bit for a potential fuel crisis, are you guilty of pantry-maxxing?  What To Listen To Next:  Listen to the Out Loud episode Holly mentions where they talk abotu Lena Denham here: Are We Done Being Bitchy About Lena Dunham?

    'The Chatbot History That Ruined My Relationship’

    You click on a link on your partner’s computer and all their unspoken doubts unspool: You have too many cats. You’re ‘fragile’. And then there’s that 'attraction problem'. This is what happened in the viral story we’re unpacking from writer Lindsey Hall about reading her boyfriend’s ChatGPT thread. So, asks Clare, who betrayed who here? And what would you have done?  Also, is having a 'Signature' everything — from a drink to a restaurant to a gift to an outfit — a genius life hack, or just an excuse for us lazy girls?" Plus, science has apparently discovered the exact dance moves that make a man 'sexy' to women, and Hamish & Andy have been putting it to the test. While an avatar might have the moves, Holly insists no man is actually a good dancer unless he’s Harry Styles or Bad Bunny.  And, Em tells us about the lipstick we’re all meant to be wearing right now, and, crucially, where we should put it.

    Is your marriage ever really what you think it is? In today's exclusive subscriber episode, Mia and Amelia are unpacking the book about suburban marriage, midlife cheating and self-discovery that has everyone talking. Belle Burden’s Strangers is a deeply polarising look at a woman whose husband announced he was leaving her during COVID and walked away from their Martha’s Vineyard life in a single morning. So, why are we all just a little bit obsessed with divorce memoirs? Plus, they've been watching the new dark ccmedy DTF St Louis starring Jason Bateman, Linda Cardellini and David Harbour (yes, Lily Allen's ex). It's all about suburban secrets and midlife 'icks ' -and has Amelia asking whether it might just be the modern, David Lynch-ian successor to American Beauty.

    The Hollywood Star Who Hates Everyone

    Will it be on June 13? Are the people already camping out at a particular Rhode Island resort? Will we even SEE any photos, or will they do a Tom-and-Zendaya? Yes, the Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce wedding frenzy is building and Clare Stephens is sifting through the data to decide whether anyone, at all, knows what they’re talking about.  Meanwhile, Donald Trump is back to saying things that make us want to hide under our beds, but Amelia Lester’s found the perfect antidote to the chaos: 'Competency porn'. Whether it's the awe-inducing precision of the Artemis II astronauts or a nurse who is really, really good at their job, there is nothing more comforting right now than watching someone be genuinely competent at what they do. We’re asking: When the world feels like a dumpster fire, is watching collective brilliance the way to stay sane? Also, Succession star Brian Cox spent his weekend unloading some very unfiltered (and very unflattering) opinions on everyone from Margot Robbie to Johnny Depp. Holly Wainwright noticed that while Brian is being celebrated for his 'tell-it-like-it-is' attitude, women just… don’t do it.  In other business, we're diving into the 'chicken ick'. That sudden, soul-crushing moment where you can no longer look at a poultry breast without gagging.  And finally, Savannah Guthrie, an unimaginable loss and the quiet bravery of going back to work.
