    Health Experts Say Eating Dinner After 6pm Is Way Too Late

    Health Experts Say Eating Dinner After 6pm Is Way Too Late

    What time do you eat dinner? Is it 6pm so you can eat with your kids? Or maybe it's 9pm after a long day of work? Maybe it's somewhere in between. 

    There's new research to suggest that maybe we're dining a little too late in the day which may have negative impacts on our body. 

    In this episode of The Quicky we look at the right time of day to eat your dinner and what we can do if that's not an option for you.

    Indefinite Detention Saga: New Laws Coming As More Detainees Arrested

    Indefinite Detention Saga: New Laws Coming As More Detainees Arrested

    Last month, Australia's high court ruled that it was illegal to keep people in indefinite immigration detention without the prospect of being deported back to the country of origin. 

    Since then, hundreds of detainees were released into the public. In the past few days, three have been arrested. 

    In this episode of The Quicky, we break down indefinite detention, who the people are being let out, what they've done since and the new laws aimed at putting them back in detention.

    Another COVID Christmas Wave: What To Expect This Time Around

    Another COVID Christmas Wave: What To Expect This Time Around

    Australia has entered another wave of Covid. The eighth to circulate since the virus first reared its head back in late 2019. 

    But now, four years on, we don't know what vaccine we're up to or what strain of Covid is circulating. So how do we know that numbers are increasing? 

    In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at where we're at with our eighth wave of Covid, new vaccines and whether or not we'll be staring down yet another Covid Christmas.

Insensitive

People just died in the White Island tragedy. How could you go and release a podcast like that? What about their poor families. Disgusting behaviour by Mamamia.
