Mamamia Out Loud

“How come your English is so good?” is what so many POC in Australia often get asked. So, what are microaggressions? Writer Nama Winston joins us to share some examples of microaggressions she’s subject to all the time. 

Also, the question about the female anatomy that men struggle to get right. We discuss. 

Plus, what did Jameela Jamil say about Kim Kardashian that got all three hosts fired up?

In case you’ve missed it, the men’s world number one tennis player, Novak Djokovic, decided to organise a tennis tournament and now he has COVID-19. Here’s why Djokovic is making Mia “puff”.

Also, some mums haven’t got the memo that we’re all trying to love our bodies. We unpack a listener dilemma. 

Plus, former High Court judge Dyson Heydon, singer Justin Bieber, and comedian Chris D’Elia have all been in the news this week. Are we witnessing a new wave of the Me Too movement? If so, why now?

Restrictions are being reintroduced in Victoria and we need an old-fashioned COVID-19 check in. What’s the situation, and should Australians be nervous? 

Also, Mia says that this week’s episode of No Filter is one of her all time favourites. So, who is Narelda Jacobs?

Plus, the government is planning to double the cost of Arts degrees. What does that actually mean? And… should we care?

And finally, an anti-recommendation from Jessie. 365 Days is the sexy Netflix movie you really mustn't watch.

Wouldn’t it be nice to permanently live in trackies and activewear? Apparently, the pandemic is changing fashion and beauty trends. But how? Mia explains.

Also, the host of The Spill Kee Reece tells us all about her celebrity theory: Could Kim Kardashian and Kanye West be the most effective social change-making celebrities of all?

Plus, it’s episode 500 of Mamamia Out Loud! We’re the longest running all-women podcast in Australia and we want to celebrate. So, Lem and Jessie came up with a very important quiz to determine: Which Mamamia Out Loud host are you?

Why are female celebrity chefs such as Poh Ling Yeow, Laura Sharrad, and Emelia Jackson copping so much heat for being cocky, smug, and overconfident? Holly fills us in on the life lessons we can learn from Australia’s TV show MasterChef.

Also, Jessie wants to talk about foxes. According to a piece in the Sydney Morning Herald, at least three people attempted to pat a fox on a university campus over the weekend and unsurprisingly they were… bitten. The urgent question is: would you ever pat a fox?

Plus, one of the pieces that’s been resonating most on Mamamia this week is about grief. It was written by our Executive Editor Leigh Campbell who lost her father around a month ago. Leigh wonders, why is it that people don’t really want you to talk about your loved one who died?

In case you missed it, this week the film ‘Gone with the Wind’ and Chris Lilley’s comedy sketch shows were removed from their streaming platforms. Are we witnessing the “book-burning of the digital age”? 

Also, we have a listener dilemma all about a woman who loves her husband very much. But she’d also like to have sex with other women. 

Plus, why has Meghan Markle allegedly broken up with her best friend? We explain.

This week, William Callaghan, a 14-year-old boy with autism, went missing during a bushwalk with his father. After two days and a monumental rescue effort, he was found. We discuss why this story touched so many Australians. 

Also, “how do I win the battle against The Chair?”. Host of the You Beauty podcast, Leigh Campbell, wants some answers. 

Plus, we are all very well-acquainted with procrastination. So is it really possible to beat procrastination with a five second trick?

What do Black Lives Matter activists mean when they say let’s ‘defund the police’? Holly’s here to explain what the movement is all about, who’s already doing it, and whether it might also work here in Australia. 

Also, how far can a company go when it comes to a dress code? From weighing people, to instructing employees how to wear their hair, we discuss. 

Plus, what is a TERF and why is Harry Potter cancelled? Mia goes through J.K. Rowling’s most recent comments against transgender people.

“All Lives Matter” - it’s a phrase that you might have seen peppered in the comment sections of news articles, images and videos across social media. So where did the phrase come from, and how do you talk to someone who won’t stop saying it?

What makes you “Pufferfish”? In her most recent stand up special for Netflix, Hannah Gadsby jokes about the banal things that make her arc up just like a Pufferfish.

Plus, you might have seen a story circulating on socials about a popular YouTuber Myka Stauffer and her husband James who said they were ‘re-homing’ their son Huxley, who was adopted from China in 2016. The family made money off Huxley and his adoption journey, but now have admitted they aren’t the right fit for the young boy. The internet pile-on was swift, but was it justified?

You’ve probably seen those black boxes popping up on Instagram. Jessie explains how this form of social media activism came about and why it’s hitting a sensitive nerve with so many people.

Also, Trump would do ANYTHING for a good photo op. So, what was behind that picture of him at St. John’s church in Washington DC? And we’re five months out for the election. Does all this chaos signal the demise of Trump? We discuss.

Plus, a listener dilemma from a mum whose 16 year old daughter is being bullied by her manager. Should she get involved?
