Double A Chattery with Amanda Keller and Anita McGregor Amanda Keller and Anita McGregor, iHeartPodcasts Australia

With the Paris Olympics kicking off tomorrow, Amanda and Anita are considering the idea of competitiveness. Apparently, Bronze Olympic medalists are often more satisfied with their place on the podium than Silver medalists. What does that tell us about the mindset of competitors? Could the key to happiness possibly be to lower expectations? Should Anita from this day forth be referred to exclusively as The Quiet Assassin? There are many questions on the table this week...

Kids are living with their parents for longer. This is a fact that has Amanda and Anita questioning the amount of communication and guidance parents should provide to their children as they enter young adulthood. Once upon a time it was just an occasional call from a pay phone to let each other know you're still alive. Now, it is a constant stream of calls and texts. So, is there any harm in keeping your children close? Or should parental wisdom be put to as much use as possible...

Amanda and Anita recently walked past a young woman who seemed to be upset. This got them thinking about what the best protocol is in situations like these. Should you approach a stranger to ask if they are alright? What if they are offended or just want a moment to themselves? From 'The Angel Of The Gap', to the invasion of privacy, and Anita's approach to offering her friendship and support - there are many lessons to be learned when it comes to offering kindness...

If you’ve come across ‘Tradwife’ content on your social media feeds, you’re not the only one. These picture-perfect videos of women presenting as idealised visions of domestic wives are spreading far and wide. While the videos themselves may not be directly harmful or sinister, Amanda and Anita discuss what Tradwife content might signal. Is this what young women want? Why are so many men watching these videos? Where are our algorithms taking us?

Two topics have enraged Amanda and Anita recently: Pronatalism, and the idea of a 'Karen'. In this episode they unpack both. The former is a belief that reproductive rates need to be increased, and the latter is the generic brand the internet uses to describe entitled middle aged women. What kind of paths could Pronatalism lead to? Is calling someone a 'Karen' just another way of silencing women's voices? Much to think about in this episode...

TikTok rabbit holes can lead to strange, and sometimes insightful places. This week Amanda shares one particular video that got her thinking about gossip. It has become a dirty word - but should we give it more credit? Can it be positive and even productive? Or should a coin be put in a jar every time we talk about someone else?
Where does that line get drawn...
