Pre-Perimenopause, Snake Wrestling and the Sheet That Did Nothing [Episode 26]

This week on Grab Her By The Mic, Han survived five birthdays in one weekend, a junior disco at an illegal decibel level, a pinata wielded like a weapon by a four-year-old, while Philsy survived a Hello Fresh salesman who stood at her door for 40 minutes in the cold while the curry went cold inside. She was late because of it. Standard. This week's Weekly Spiral accidentally became National Geographic after three glasses of Grenache. America has now lost multiple kangaroos across multiple states, the US Health Secretary posted a video of himself wrestling snakes, and two men drove a dead alligator across Central Florida on the roof of their car, and when questioned, covered it with a white sheet and kept driving. The HyperFix this week started at the Mittagong junior disco, where someone called Kelsey casually dropped the concept of pre-perimenopause like a grenade and walked away. What followed was several hours of research into whether it's a real medical condition (sort of, maybe, nobody entirely agrees), a deep dive into why ADHD makes the whole thing worse and earlier, and a genuine spiral about why women are still learning about their own bodies from random conversations in completely inappropriate settings. Obsessions of the Week: Go-To Skincare (Philsy is on a clean perfume oil journey and the Face Hero is doing things) and Off Campus on Prime Video (Han needs you to watch it immediately, it's too childish for grown-ups and too sexy for kids, which means it's exactly for you). Stick around for Chaos Correctional where Han fact-checks the bear, the snakes, Tony Abbott, and the trebuchet. Explicit, feral, occasionally educational, and accidentally hormonal. See you next Tuesday. 💋 CHAOS CORRECTIONAL (FACT-CHECK CORNER) Stick around after the outro for Chaos Correctional - where Han cleans up the confident nonsense we said on air with just enough research to be dangerous. This week we correct: Whether it was RFK or Trump who actually pushed the Tylenol-autism claim Trump's combat appointment and whether the Department of Defence still exists by that name Tony Abbott and the Minister for Women situation (turns out it's worse than we said) The full story on RFK's dead bear, Central Park, and the freezer of roadkill How snakes actually mate and whether Dr Oz was accurate What a trebuchet actually is Whether weed is legal in Florida (it's not, which raises questions) Whether elephants actually have good memories and how we know The James Corden plane story (unverified but extremely plausible) LINKS AND THINGS WE MENTIONED 🍷 Recap and Rosé Raywell Grenache 2022, Clare Valley - from Good Pair Days 🐰Research Rabbit Hole Pre-perimenopause and ADHD connection - ADDitude Magazine ADHD and perimenopause symptom severity - ADDA Oestrogen, dopamine and ADHD - Frontiers in Global Women's Health Previously unrecognised ADHD and perimenopause - NIH/PubMed 7% of healthcare research focuses on conditions exclusively affecting women - source via The Lancet Perimenopause as "Bermuda Triangle" of women's healthcare - clinical studies via NAMS 💥Internet Chaos RFK Jr snake wrestling video - The Guardian Waco kangaroo escape - Beaumont Enterprise Florida alligator roof rack story - News of the Weird roundup RFK and Kid Rock hot tub milk video - reported widely RFK bear in Central Park confession - CNN 🌀 Products We Spiralled About Go-To Skincare by Zoe Foster Blake: Off Campus - Prime Video Glass bottom potatoes by Annabel Crabb Toni & Ryan Podcast Loved this episode?

Microplastics, Mental Spirals, and a Man With a Wheelie Bin [Episode 25]

It's episode 25 of Grab Her By The Mic - a quarter of a century (kind of) of being completely unqualified in your ears - and this one has everything. We kick off Recap & Rosé in full Flubber energy (cold sores, dirty hair, a botched haircut, and a son who said "ha ha sucker" at the preschool gate), before spiralling into three Weekly Spiral stories that cover a French teenager who committed citrus-based terrorism in Singapore, a Massachusetts beekeeper who arrived at an eviction with a trailer full of hives and zero regrets, and something that happened in Scotland involving a wheelie bin that we are still processing. Han's Hyperfix goes deep on microplastics - and it is not a vibe. Plastic in your blood, your lungs, your brain tissue, your placenta. Philsy's Hyperfix brings the antidote: an accidental family Olympics featuring pickleball, soccer, skipping, UNO gambling, and a preschooler in full footy gear deception. The SideQuest this week is One Thing Led To Another - a collaborative spiral game inspired by ADHD and RSD. Obsession of the Week covers a Korean beauty foundation from Beauty Amora that costs $25 and somehow outperforms Charlotte Tilbury, and the Finch app - a self-care app disguised as raising a little bird that won't make you feel terrible when you forget about it for three months. Explicit, feral, occasionally peer-reviewed, and accidentally educational about bin-related legal proceedings. See you next Tuesday. 💋 CHAOS CORRECTIONAL (FACT-CHECK CORNER) Stick around after the outro for Chaos Correctional - where Han cleans up the confident nonsense we said on air with just enough research to be dangerous. This week we correct: Whether "Appalachian" actually means mountains (it doesn't, not really) How to pronounce Lusso (it's LOO-soh, it means luxury in Italian, we are embarrassed) Robot restaurants in China (real, confirmed, mixed results) How many straws the Singapore teenager actually licked (more than one) What the treatment for Binocular Vision Dysfunction actually is (prism glasses exist and we didn't know) What it's called when you oil a cast iron pan (seasoning, we were right, mark it) What The Disappearing Male documentary is actually about Whether it's "dewy" or "jewey" for skin (D, always D, there is no J) LINKS & THINGS WE MENTIONED 🐰 Research Rabbit Hole - Microplastics Nature journal - microplastics in human brain tissue study (2026) New England Journal of Medicine - microplastics in artery plaque and cardiovascular risk (2024) Stanford Medicine explainer on microplastics in the body Beyond Plastics - practical reduction tips NRDC Consumer Guide - 10 things you can do 🐰 Research Rabbit Hole - ADHD & RSD ADDitude Magazine - RSD explainer InFocus First - RSD and hormonal fluctuation in women ☠️ Low Tox Swaps Philsy Mentioned Pipsqueaks lunchboxes (Australian, stainless steel, Byron Bay mum): search Pipsqueak lunchboxes Australia Clean Canteen stainless steel water bottles.

Greg the Frog, The Fury Wedding, and a Fashion Show That Needed a Welfare Check [Episode 24]

This week on Grab Her By The Mic, Han reports that her four-year-old has declared war on her personally, Philsy has a possum update that nobody asked for but everyone needed, and together they spiral through three news stories that are somehow all equally unhinged. Australian Fashion Week had a fire alarm, a woman being dragged across the runway by her ankles, and Ian Thorpe sitting front row looking like a man who deeply regrets every decision that led him to that seat. A frog named Greg survived inside a sealed Woolworths salad bag and was sent off with a rendition of Crazy Frog. And over 150 peacocks have formed a government in an Italian seaside town and nobody is doing anything about it. Han's Hyperfix this week is the question keeping every parent of a spirited child awake at 2am: is my child emotionally okay, or is she just four? Spoiler: the answer involves prefrontal cortex development, the phrase "I wish you were dead," and the realisation that secure attachment means you are the designated emotional punching bag. Philsy goes deep on the Fury family - Tyson, Venezuela, the 50-foot lace train, the Crocs, Peter Andre appearing like a beautiful haunted carousel horse, and a father-daughter dance to Mysterious Girl that nobody saw coming. The SideQuest this week is Fashion Show or Mental Breakdown, which after the week we've had is less of a game and more of a documentary. Chaotic, feral, occasionally educational and accidentally therapeutic. Explicit content. Not suitable for the easily offended or anyone who just wants to eat their salad in peace. See you next Tuesday. 💋 Chaos Correctional (Fact-Check Corner): Stick around after the outro for Chaos Correctional - where Han cleans up the confident nonsense we said on air with just enough research to be dangerous. This week we correct: The wine (it's Nero d'Avola, not Diavolo Nero - same energy, different label) Georgia O'Keeffe (dead since 1986 and she did NOT mean the flowers that way) Guano (we used this correctly and we're celebrating) The turkey drowning myth (false, but the real answer is somehow more disturbing) Tommy Fury's Pokémon card (that's Logan Paul's card -completely different person) Whether Peter Andre is a Gypsy (he is Greek Cypriot and simply appears at events) Traveller prenups (not really a thing) Bluetooth sleep headbands (probably fine, but the anxiety about it might be the actual problem) Links & Things We Mentioned 🍷 Recap & Rosé Wimala Tempranillo 2021 from Mudgee - deep red with cherry, nutmeg, cocoa, sarsaparilla, plums, blackberry and raspberry 🧠 The HyperFix At Home with the Furys (Netflix) Molly-Mae: Behind It All (Prime Video) Brat Buster Parenting - Instagram: @bratbustersparenting 🌀 The Weekly Spiral Greg the frog - Live frog found in bag of lettuce in remote Western Australian town Australian Fashion Week - Fashionistas forced to evacuate during runway show Australian Fashion Week - Bizarre stunt as model dragged on floor in front of celebrities including Ian Thorpe Italian peacocks - Peacock ‘invasion’ of Italian seaside town ruffles feathers 💕 Obsession of the Week Sleep Well Bluetooth Headband - available at Rebel Sport Metamucil - fibre supplement, available at most pharmacies and supermarkets Loved this episode?

Litter Boxes, Military Dolphins & the Thermos That's Out to Get You [Episode 23]

This week on Grab Her By The Mic, a friend told Han that a local high school installed a litter box for students who identify as cats. Han lost her mind about it for a week, went down a rabbit hole, and came back with something way more sinister than a rumour about cats Philsy went full correspondent mode on the 2026 Met Gala - best dressed (Kris Jenner and Cara Delevingne), worst dressed (Heidi Klum, obviously), the Bezos controversy, Rihanna arriving after the red carpet had already closed, Blake Lively's energy, Katy Perry's six-fingers, and Beyoncé doing exactly what Beyoncé does. In the Weekly Spiral: a missing woman in Mexico whose filtered Instagram photos made her unrecognisable to police, the Pentagon press briefing that became an Austin Powers bit when Iran was accused of deploying kamikaze dolphins, and the Thermos recall affecting 8 million containers after three people lost their vision opening their lunch. The SideQuest was Silent Call, where it was proven why Philsy isn’t allowed to plan anything on her own. We wore headphones and had to navigate phone calls with no idea what was happening. Philsy’s Mum thought she was being held hostage while Han’s Dad huffed and puffed yet somehow knew Philsy was involved. A second caller announced she'd done a poo. It was exactly what it sounds like. Explicit, feral, occasionally educational, and accidentally the most thorough investigation of a local rumour the Southern Highlands has ever produced. See you next Tuesday. 💋 CHAOS CORRECTIONAL (FACT-CHECK CORNER) Stick around after the outro for Chaos Correctional - where Han cleans up the confident nonsense we said on air with just enough research to be dangerous. This week we correct: The Chinese plastic surgery lawsuit (it's almost certainly a hoax from 2004) Whether Mexico has social security (it does) What the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs actually is (we undersold how unhinged the Austin Powers moment was) Whether Australia has military dolphins (no, sadly) Anna Wintour's successor's name (Chloe Malle) The full Bezos Met Gala controversy (confirmed, and we undersold the fake urine) Lena Dunham's new show - is it autobiographical?

Slow Living, Suspicious Date Nights & Ronnie the Crayfish Who Didn't Make It [Episode 22]

Episode 22 of Grab Her By The Mic opens with a debrief that goes places. Han's husband planned a date night and she immediately suspected she was being broken up with. Philsy went to the Hunter Valley, drank a lot of wine, and returned a self-declared expert. One of them relaxed into a genuinely slow weekend. The other one is still processing it. Classic. The Weekly Spiral covers the three stories you need to know about this week: Harry Styles reportedly engaged after eight months (we have stats and opinions), Trump pausing a live televised speech to tell Melania their marriage won't last (with the King of England in the room), and an activist who stole a pet crayfish named Ronnie from a restaurant to liberate him - and killed him instantly by throwing him into cold saltwater. RIP Ronnie. You deserved better. Han's Hyperfix digs into the slow living trap - why opting out of hustle culture feels like another full-time job with a mood board. Spoiler: your nervous system is confused, rest feels like a threat, and the linen set is not going to fix it. Philsy brings Hunter Valley hot takes and the science behind why April specifically destroys everyone. The SideQuest is Worth It or Cooked - both hosts rule on self-care behaviours and admit to things they probably shouldn't. The chaos twist delivers. Chaotic, occasionally educational, and somehow accidentally therapeutic. See you next Tuesday. 💋 Chaos Correctional (Fact-Check Corner) Stick around after the outro for Chaos Correctional - where Han cleans up the confident nonsense we said on air with just enough research to be dangerous. This week we correct: How to actually pronounce Pokolbin (we were all wrong, all of us) Whether refried beans are made with pork fat (they are, Philsy was right, we're grieving) The average time people date before getting engaged vs. Harry Styles' eight months The movie Zoë Kravitz directed, who she met there, and the subsequent romantic chaos Whether Ronnie was a lobster (he was not, and ignorance of species is not a defence) Links & Things We Mentioned 🍷 Recap & Rosé Hunter Valley Wine Country (official tourism site) winecountry.com.au Pokolbin visitor info visitnsw.com Greg's Espresso Bar, Pokolbin - the Hunter Valley coffee stop with "killer toasties" named things like Pig Jam, Are You Takin' The Pesto?, Sweet Baby Cheesus, and The Devil's in the Béchamel.

Madonna, Migraines & A Dog On A Bus [Episode 21]

This week on Grab Her By The Mic, we're spiralling through the headlines, hyperfixating on what's actually going on in Australia right now, and playing a game that Madonna definitely inspired. In our brand new segment, the Weekly Spiral, we unpack Kim K and Lewis Hamilton's beach snog, Madonna rising from under the Coachella stage in a twenty-year-old corset (that someone then lost on a golf cart), and Trump picking a fight with the actual Pope. The Pope's approval rating is nearly double his. We have thoughts. Han's Hyperfix this week is the ANU study that confirmed Australians are now officially sadder than during COVID lockdowns - and the 35 to 54 age bracket is the most miserable group of all. That's us. Science said so. Han also unpacks what life was actually like for women in 1976, the year 59% of Australians apparently want to go back to. Spoiler: it wasn't great. Philsy brings us her Hyperfix on Coco, her deeply unhinged dog, who this week got on a school bus, caused a kitten heel incident, and may or may not be getting a taser collar. We also play Age Against The Machine for the SideQuest - where we settle once and for all what women are too old for. The answer, mostly, is nothing. Then we wrap with our brand new Obsession of the Week: Philsy recommends Italo in Bowral, Han recommends Big Mistakes on Netflix. Don't go anywhere after the outro - Chaos Correctional is up, where we fact check ourselves and find out exactly how wrong we were. See you next Tuesday. 💋 CHAOS CORRECTIONAL Stick around after the outro for Chaos Correctional - where Han cleans up the confident nonsense we said on air with just enough research to be dangerous. This week we correct: Whether you should ask your kids what they learned at school straight away (Philsy was right) What a "head" of yarn is actually called Where Kim K and Lewis Hamilton went carpet shopping (not Coachella) Whether Madonna just released a new song How her Coachella outfits actually went missing Whether Trump brought in anti-abortion legislation Whether the Pope is anti-abortion (it's complicated) Whether dog taser collars are legal in Australia How long the ANUpoll has been running Who Australia's Prime Minister was during Obama's presidency LINKS & THINGS WE MENTIONED 🍷 Recap & Rosé Between Friends Rosé - only $10 at Dan Murphy’s 🌀 Weekly Spiral Kim K & Lewis Hamilton - search on your socials, you won't miss it, but see the story here on News.com.au Madonna at Coachella - details on the feedback Madonna’s missing outfit - details on News.com.au Confessions II - out July 3 - find the album page with countdown on Spotify Trump vs Pope Leo XIV - Truth Social (if you dare) or details on the ABC 😢 Australia is Sad & The ANUpoll ANU official release: SBS News article 🤤 Obsession of the Week Italo Bowral - The Mill, 6/210-224 Bong Bong Street, Bowral NSW 2576 | Instagram: @italobowral Big Mistakes on Netflix LOVED THIS EPISODE?

Slow Motherhood, Megxit 2.0 & A Petrol Panic - Welcome to 2026 [Episode 20]

This week on Grab Her By The Mic, Philsy is fresh from Byron with a tan, a gland infection and a bag of antibiotics that have wrecked her gut. Han spent the second week of school holidays selectively pretending she didn't have children, then got sinus-infected mid-Sudafed-license-handover and survived to tell the tale. Han's hyper fix dives headfirst into "slow motherhood" - we unpack the privilege problem, the gentle parenting hangover, and the actual peer-reviewed research that says the guilt is doing more damage than the missed bath. Philsy goes full body-language analyst on Megxit 2.0 - the "press tour that's not a royal tour," what Harry and Meghan are actually here for, and why every confident woman in public life still gets shredded for breathing. Plus: a SideQuest called Slow or Feral, a Weekly Manifest that includes fuel under $2 a litre, and Philsy’s genuine threat to buy a Nokia 3210 from Big W. See you next Tuesday. 💋 Chaos Correctional (Fact-Check Corner) Stick around after the outro for Chaos Correctional - where Han cleans up the confident nonsense we said on air with just enough research to be dangerous. This week we correct: Philsy’s claim someone burned down the Geelong oil refinery (there’s no evidence of this). The pronunciation of Hoka. It's Ho-kah. We were close-ish. Plenty of WTF Harry and Meghan moments. Whether Australia genuinely only has two oil refineries left (yes, and that's the real story) The all important debate over potpourri.

Teeth Dreams, Toe Cleavage & the Capsule Wardrobe I'm Definitely Building [Episode 19]

This week on Grab Her By The Mic, Han deep dives into the meaning of dreams after crying at an Easter girls' lunch because of a dream she had about Philsy quitting the podcast. Yes, really. Spoiler: Philsy isn't going anywhere. The dream was fake. The emotional damage was very real. Philsy weighs in from a Byron Bay holiday, reports that she has purchased parachute pants and toe-cleavage ballet flats in what she is calling - with a completely straight face - a capsule wardrobe. This episode covers: dreams and what your subconscious is actually doing while you sleep, attachment anxiety and the friendships that survive it, selling a Tesla because Elon ruined everything, Net World at Treetop Adventures in Canberra, capsule wardrobe goals vs. execution, ballet core, thrifting with restraint (questionable), donating to Pop In in the Southern Highlands, and siblings - organised chaos with shared trauma and the same mum. No SideQuest this week (RIP to the vibes), but the Manifest more than made up for it. See you next Tuesday 💋 Chaos Correctional (Fact-Check Corner): Stick around after the outro for Chaos Correctional - where Han cleans up the confident nonsense we said on air with just enough research to be dangerous. This week we correct: What the Jewish Talmud actually is (Han cited it correctly, just didn't fully explain what she was citing) Freud and Jung were psychiatrists, not psychologists - and here's what they were actually known for What balletcore actually is The toe cleavage ballet flat was Miu Miu, not Balenciaga.
