Welcome to our summer series where we play you some of our favourite episodes that you might have missed or might want to revisit. 
When Gabbie Stroud shut the door on her primary school classroom in 2014, she knew that she was leaving teaching forever. Between the growing curriculum, demanding parents and standardised tests like Naplan, Gabbie had begun to see her role not as a teacher, but as a data analyst.
Now Gabbie has written a memoir, Teacher, which tells her story: How she came to teaching, what our kids need from their teachers - and what finally broke her.
The regular season of No Filter returns Jan 20th 2020

On September 10, 2023,  17-year-old Fletcher Crowley’s life changed in an instant when an ordinary day out with his mates went bad. In that moment, his whole family was impacted in ways they’re only just starting to understand. So six months later, how are they doing? Fletcher and his parents, Nicky and Pat join Mia Freedman to talk about that day and the unexpected aftermath.

You can help the Crowley family and many others by signing this petition to get PBS approval for a life-saving drug for those with the rare form of cancer called VHL like Levi.

Fletcher's foundation Get Silly is here, if you want to buy a jumper or shirt and support spinal cord research and rehab.

Tammy Hembrow is rich, famous and entirely self-made. At just 29, she has two thriving businesses worth an estimated $50m, three kids, two ex fiancés, she’s getting married in a few months to a man she insists is the love of her life.

Yes, back in 2018 she had an unfortunate incident at Kylie Jenner’s 21st that was a low point in her life. It was made far worse by the fact it was captured by paparazzi whose photos went viral. 
But in a way, it was a good thing because it changed the direction of her career for the better.
Tammy joins Mia Freedman in the No Filter studio to talk about her big life and why she’s barely done any interviews until now.
Tammy's new book Show Up is available here.

James Foley’s death was unimaginable. He was a journalist held hostage by ISIS for two years in Syria and killed in 2014 as a threat to America. Footage of him wearing an orange jumpsuit, forcibly reading a message before being beheaded was posted to Twitter. The media coverage of the event had the second most recognition in recent American history after 9/11.

His mother Diane Foley’s determination to understand her son’s fate led her to meeting with one of the men responsible.

This episode is about the profound impact of James’ life, he saw light in everything and everyone. His mother has been through the complexities of grace and empathy in the face of an unthinkable loss.

American Mother by Colum McCan with Diane Foley is available here.

‘Meeting The Terrorist Who Killed My Son, James Foley’

You can hear the second half of Mia's conversation with Annie here. 

Subscribe to Mamamia
At the intersection of sex, marketing and the gig economy, you will find Annie Knight, who has been branded ‘Australia’s Most Sexually Active Woman’.
Annie is a 27-year-old Brisbane woman who makes her own sex content and sells it to subscribers via Only Fans where she is in the top 0.02% of creators on the platform.
Only Fans became wildly popular during the pandemic, with thousands of Australians creating accounts in the hope of converting home made content - usually sexually explicit photos and videos - into cash.
But OnlyFans isn’t the golden goose of the gig economy. The vast majority of creators make very little money. And then there’s Annie. So how much does she make? And what exactly does she have to do for it?

‘Australia’s Most Sexually Active Woman’ On Positions, Pleasure and Money

Subscribe to Mamamia
When Kayla Itsines’ fitness empire was at its peak, she’d just had her first baby. Behind the scenes she was feeling her absolute worst and was internally screaming “when is this gonna get better?”

She ended her relationship with her business partner and fiance Tobi Pearce and they later sold their company for hundreds of millions of dollars. 
They’ve just bought it back. They’re now co-owners and co-parents, while Kayla is now married to someone else and has had her second child. 

In this conversation Kayla tells guest host Kate Langbroek about how she decided her relationship wasn’t right, how she ended up with her best friend and why she bought back her business: “It’s my baby and I want it back”.
