I Invited William And Kate To My Wedding

Cath is getting her formal!! Democracy has won. Buy tickets to The Spring Fling. The Unleashed family is growing, with a new voice joining the couch: Georgie Page. And she’s joining with some cracking stories, including the time she sent her actual wedding invite to actual royalty… and then made the fatal mistake of reading the comments. Mary got run over as a kid, sort of, and her reaction still haunts her. Grace heard one podcast episode and nearly torched her marriage over a park ban. And Cath blanked so hard at the mechanic she just started announcing her hormones to strangers. Plus: the pub comeback Cath still high-fives herself for, the neighbour note that ended Georgie's singing career, and the cafe comment about Mary's "granddaughter" that we will never, ever let go.

Mad Mabel Is A Real Woman And We Have So Many Questions

Sally's ex sent an accidental message that has us all cringing, and now she has to decide if bailing him out of humiliation is still her job. Ginni puts the whole midlife supplement stack under the microscope, plus the "Enhanced Games" scam nobody saw coming. There's also a proper gut-punch listener dilemma this week: what do you do when your dead mum's estranged family wants a separate goodbye? Grace has some very personal advice to share on that one. And Cath may finally be getting the school formal she never had (decades late, taffeta mandatory). In your ears today: Cath Mahoney, Sally Hepworth, Ginni Mansberg and Grace Lam.

Do I Tell My Friend Her Partner Sucks?

Or keep your mouth shut and wait for the whole thing to implode? Mary learned that telling the truth can come back to bite you. Meanwhile, Cath went heavy petting in a 12th-century graveyard and Grace got caught mid-pash with her knickers around her ankles and a pack of wild dogs closing in. Bruna makes adult dramas but can’t stop watching teenage ones, and Mary's worried we've lost the art of small talk. Plus, can two sisters grow up in the same house and remember completely different childhoods? In your ears today: Cath Mahoney, Mary Coustas, Bruna Papandrea and Grace Lam.

I Pashed Robbie Williams But I Have No Proof

In a time before social media, before camera phones and before anyone could prove anything, one of us had a toilet-line kiss with Robbie Williams. And somehow, that is not even the funniest celebrity story in this episode. Sally says there is a childhood trend directly linked to her declining mental health. Mary once thought she was pregnant at eight years old. Bruna takes aim at the myth that women vanish after 40. And a very spicy problem involving an affair, a soulmate and one dinner table nobody wants to sit at. Plus... Cath never went to a formal, so should we throw her one? If you're keen, let us know on Instagram @unleashed.show ! In your ears today: Sally Hepworth, Mary Coustas, Bruna Papandrea and Cath Mahoney Would you come to Cath's formal?! Messsage us!

EXTRA: Mary Coustas Was 49 When She Became A Mum

You know Mary Coustas as one of Australia's funniest women: the brilliant mind behind the big-haired, iconic character Effie who has graced our screens and stage for over 30 years. But in this episode from the archives, we're bringing you a different side of Mary. In this No Filter conversation with Mia Freedman, Mary talks about her unfaltering desire to become a mother, the unimaginable loss of enduring 23 IVF attempts, and the absolute joy of finally welcoming her daughter at 49. It’s honest, unflinchingly raw, deeply moving, and a chance to get to know this beloved icon a whole lot better. This episode originally aired on No Filter.

Bruna opens the HR file on office romances, and the things we got up to in a time before relationship policies came in. What happens when a friendship fades?

So, What’s This Show All About?

The antidote to the bin-fire of right now. Forget inspirational life coach energy. Forget toxic positivity. This is the show for the woman who is tired of being a human doormat, sick of being told to get in the bin, and currently eating her body weight in Greek yogurt because someone on Instagram said protein is the answer and honestly...to what? From the brain (and slightly unhinged vision board) of Mia Freedman comes a podcast that’s not inspirational even in the slightest. You don’t need to learn anything or remember anything either. Just turn up. Join your smartest, most brilliant friends; Sally Hepworth, Mary Coustas, Bruna Papandrea, Grace Lam, Cathrine Mahoney, and Dr Ginni Mansberg for a bit of distraction, some helpful things, and a laugh. Produced by Mia Freedman, who now owns a hat with PRODUCER written on it in very large font. Launching Feb 3. New eps every Tuesday. Tell your group chat. Send it to your sister. Recommend it aggressively to the friend who says “I don’t really listen to podcasts”. She's an idiot. Follow the chaos on Instagram: @unleashed.show Follow on Apple Podcasts and Spotify And if you are ready to get unhinged with us, leave a review. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
