This week on JOY Breakfast with Joel and Mama Mish, the chaos was packed into boxes as Joel survived moving house and the team asked listeners the ultimate question — are you a pre-packer or a throw-everything-into-a-garbage-bag-at-midnight kind of mover? The laughs continued with another dramatic round of Closest to the Pin, and a wholesome RESET segment celebrating quiet good news from around the world — from Scotland making period products free, to Thailand turning rubbish into dog shelters. The team went back into the ‘upside down world’ to read out their listeners wildly chaotic May horoscopes + Joel and Mama Mish wrapped up the morning celebrating Aussie tennis star Ajla Tomljanović’s birthday with plenty of sass, sparkle, and questionable life advice along the way.

This week’s topics: Colour blocking is back, baby – Jason’s Fashion Rant breaks down what’s coming down the runway as we finally move away from 2000s grunge–heroin chic, with Loewe and Dsquared leading the charge. Also this week, we debrief the Golden Globes, replay TikTok chaos from the Critics’ Choice Awards, and talk Ashley Tisdale’s mean girls mothers’ group exposé. Plus, Dr Cat also talks keeping pets safe in the heat while we survive a hot‑as week and confess how we actually stayed cool. Then it’s Australia’s under‑16 social media ban: failed algorithms, new platforms, kids working around the rules, and the weird ChatGPT trend where people ask it to generate a husband – plus how well any of this is actually going. We kick off Midsumma Music Voting for the JOY Midsumma March and ask you to text in the songs that should make the playlist.
