Mamamia Out Loud

There's a new celebrity boyfriend doing the rounds and everyone from Jennifer Aniston to Princess Martha Louise of Norway (a royal rebel if ever there was one) are here to confirm that the spiritual-softboi era is officially here. Holly has a precise theory as to why. And Jessie poses a provocative question to both Holly and Mamamia's Editor, Stacey Hicks: is anti-natalism (aka choosing not to have kids for ethical reasons) gaining traction for a reason? Plus, we've had 'job hopping' and 'quiet quitting' but it's 'job hugging' that's the latest workplace trend — and no, it's not as cosy as it sounds. There are pros, there are cons and someone's missing out bigtime. Stacey explains. And in recommendations: A criminally underrated TV show that's perfect for weekend viewing A podcast that’s anything but average And a cult-fave hair product Jessie didn’t want to love... but does. Support independent women's media Recommendations Stacey recommends Shrinking on Apple TV  Jessie recommends Bedroom Hair texture spray by Kevin Murphy  Holly recommends Dr Stacey Sims on the MID podcast.  What To Listen To Next:  Listen to our latest episode: The Problem With Compliments Listen: The Couple Who Need To Stay Away From Each Other Listen: LITTLE TREAT: Holly & Jessie Spill The Tea On Writing A Book Listen: Why No One's Having Sex In Bed Anymore Listen: Decoding The Nicole Kidman & Keith Urban Divorce Narrative Listen: Vanessa Amorosi, Emma Watson & The Problem When Kids Earn More Than Their Parents Listen: Victoria Beckham’s Version & Jessie’s Very Big News Listen: “Tough It Out”.

If we could give Jennifer Lopez one tip: not every ex needs a friendship arc. Looking at you, Ben Affleck. Some things — like red carpets and rekindled flings — are better left in the early 2000s. On today's show, Holly braces herself for this scurrilous JLo gossip. Take cover, friends. Plus, a plot twist in the Taylor Swift PR machine no one saw coming. Jessie’s been deep in internet sleuth mode and she’s ready to explain why the Swiftie outrage might actually be legit. And finally: WTF is klarnamaxxing? If you live by 'buy now, pay later', you need to hear Amelia deep dive into this.

Hey Outlouders! For this week's Sunday special, we're dropping an episode of our sister podcast Well into your feed - because we know you'll love this conversation as much as we do. We're talking all things peri and menopause.  Does your endometriosis put you at a higher risk of early menopause? Did a pig castrator really perform the first-ever C-section? And if you've had a hysterectomy, do you still need to see a gynaecologist? On this episode of Well Claire Murphy chats to Professor Susan Davis, a founder of Jean Hailes for Women's Health and past president of the Australasian Menopause Society, to find out what's fact and what's fiction when it comes to the science of perimenopause.  They unravel common myths, including “disappearing labia” and talk about why some things you're being sold on social media - like weighted vests and special supplements -  may not be as miraculous as they might seem. Plus, talk about the latest research on delaying the onset of menopause and why it might not be a good idea for everybody. THE END BITS All your health information is in the Well Hub.

Australian singer Vanessa Amorosi has spoken about the very messy feud with her mum and the financial fallout that destroyed their relationship. But does it reveal more about the bizarre dynamics of child stars and their families? Also, Jessie has a question: if you’re going through something in your personal life, should you tell your workplace about it? How much do you REALLY want your boss to know? We have thoughts. Plus, it's 'Sit at the Bar September' and Amelia has a theory about why sitting and making eye contact with strangers IRL sound so unappealing to young people.

Leave it to Donald Trump to redefine international etiquette — this time as a dibber-dobber. Threatening to tattle on a reporter to Australia's PM Anthony Albanese, Trump turned political theatrics into a cross-border spectacle. Mia, Jessie and Amelia investigate this most unAustralian of crimes on today's show.  And, an update on Bruce Willis’ condition from his wife in her confronting new memoir that hits home for anyone touched by dementia. Jessie shares her personal experience and unpacks the backlash Emma Heming Willis is getting online for the decisions she's making on behalf of her celebrity husband. Plus, a breast pump row. It may sound like something from another era — but it happened to Dr Elise Turner this week in Melbourne when the mum of twins was told to leave an airport lounge for daring to express milk for her babies. But there’s one crucial detail that most of us missed...And, Births, Deaths & Marriages. Mia’s got a new segment and a lot to say. From celebrity babies to red carpet chaos, she’s tying it all together… loosely. Is it an excuse to (scurrilously) gossip about celebrities? Absolutely. Does she seamlessly segue into a controversial red carpet analysis? Of course she does.  We also reveal the 17 household habits that will clear mental clutter as much as they will your kitchen bench tops. Light and shade, friends.
