Mamamia Out Loud

Just yesterday, we learned that an end is in sight for Australia’s ongoing lockdown. What will help get us there faster is a tracking app which is meant to help the government trace contacts and therefore contain infection rates. So, how do we feel about installing a government-operated tracing app? 

Also, what’s the best way to make conversation during iso? A mere “how are you?” might not cut it. And what if all we want to do is complain in response?

Plus, to bra or not to bra? That is the question on many women’s minds at the moment. We discuss.

Pete Evans has recently endorsed a $15,000 machine which he claims is a cure for COVID-19. So, should celebrities espousing similar (potentially dangerous) views be banned from posting about their beliefs online?

Also, how did a man who was in lockdown for seven years start a family with two kids? We discuss Julian Assange’s big ol’ secret.

Plus. what is it like to live on your own throughout these bizarre times? We talk to a few outlouders and discuss.

What’s your COVID routine like nowadays? We’ve asked you and your answers included exercise, getting up super early and pretend-walking into your fake office.  Today, we let you Outlouders steer the conversation.

Also, excuse me, but what the hell is a weekend anymore? And now that our days are blending into each other, what differentiates a weekend from a weekday? We discuss.

To Jessie’s scornful delight, Holly’s managed to scrape up some celeb gossip among the COVID-infested headlines. So, why did Harry and Meghan decide to call their charity Archewell? And, what do we think of Demi Moore and her ex Bruce Willis isolating together?

And, since we’re all desperately waiting for a COVID vaccine to materialise, what are anti vax groups up to? Well, notes have been dropping in people’s letter boxes in Sydney with a  brand new conspiracy theory. We have many thoughts.

Plus, Gen X seems to be doing alright in this mess. After all, they’re used to self-entertainment, delayed gratification, and expecting the world to end at any given moment. Is Gen X nailing isolation? We discuss.

Can a diabetic stop for a doughnut while she’s out jogging? What if she needed to rest on a bench midway through? Does that behavior warrant a $1000 fine? Help! We’re confused and we need guidance.

Also, Scott Morrison is now officially the most popular leader since Kevin Rudd was back in 2009. Left and right wing feuds have dissolved and the government is vigilantly looking out for the vulnerable. Could this be our new normal?

Plus, as Mia put it, ‘you know things are serious when the Queen gives a speech and it’s not Christmas’. We unpack the Queen’s speech and why it made us feel so warm and fuzzy on the inside.

According to Psychologist Esther Perel, times of crises makes us behave differently in our relationships. So, being locked up inside will either bring people closer together or tear them apart. Can COVID-19 act as a relationship accelerator? We discuss. 

Also, do you remember how reality TV shows started off as wholesome semi-innocuous entertainment. Nowadays, it’s all about raising the stakes for shock value. We unpack the evolution of the reality TV star. 

Plus, the app Zoom has recently received a security warning from the FBI due to user privacy breaches. Jessie is worrying about other things at the moment and she genuinely doesn’t care. But should she? 

This episode is brought to you by Officeworks.

One show has managed to temporarily distract us from COVID-19, and of course it’s the Netflix documentary series Tiger King. So, how come we’re so obsessed? And who is the real villain? It looks like you’re either Team Joe or Team Carole. 

Also, it’s not just toilet paper. Pads and tampons have been selling out like crazy. That’s why hundreds of women are opting for the alternative: mooncups. Elise Cooper joins us to explain how they’ve been a life-changer for her.

Plus, who is your COVID crush? We discuss.

In these times of crisis when tensions are high, we’re quick to criticise and blame. So, who are we looking towards for guidance? We discuss.

Also, COVID-19 really does not discriminate. Prince Charles has tested positive for the virus and some media sources have rushed to blame Meghan Markle. Are we shocked?

Plus, are we starting to look different from our pre-COVID selves? Now that we’re all holed up in our houses, there’s no actual need for that eyeliner or lipstick. But is anyone else having an identity crisis?

Homeschooling is terrifying parents across the continent, but shouldn’t we be allowed to give ourselves and our kids a bit of a break right now? 

Also, some of us can’t focus on our work, others are catastrophizing and most of us are experiencing a sense of doom. It’s not exactly anxiety, so could it be… grief? 

Plus, are phone calls making a comeback? Some of us used to consider them an inconvenience but nowadays we may need them more than ever. We discuss.
