This is a VERY exciting episode if you, like me, grew up watching the HBO's hit show GIRLS, have seen the Megan movies and also thought Jordan Peele's movie 'Get Out' was a cinematic masterpiece!

I got the opportunity to chat to the incredible lead actress, Allison Williams!

I asked Allison about the powerful messaging behind all her chosen projects. Starting with Girls, we discuss what was so groundbreaking at the time, being a Marine apologist and what would be different if Girls existed in todays current political climate.

We then chatted through why Get Out struck a chord in so many people, the broken conversation about race in both America and Australia and how her character was developed.

Finally, we talk about Megan 2.0 (in cinemas now!) and how that reflected current day politics around the use of Artificial Intelligence.

A big thank you to Universal Studios

This was such a pivotal moment in Australia’s history, a fascinating legal case and a man, Eddie Mabo, whose story we should all know.

Really, what was so important about the Mabo decision is that it challenged one of the biggest lies at the heart of Australia’s foundation — that the land was empty when the British arrived. 

So today we want to look at who Eddie Mabo was, how his case came to be and the journey of him taking it all the way to the High Court - forcing Australians to formally recognise that our Indigenous people had rich culture, laws and land ownership long before British invasion.

The dreaded Hey Girly message. If you don't know what that is, it's the decision to message a poor girl to let her know her partner has been caught out doing the wrong thing (cheating, on a dating app, flirting with others, done something in his past, been particularly rude).

To receive one is the worst but to have to send one is equally terrifying.

Would you send it? How would you react? Would you be thankful?
