Mamamia Out Loud

What do fish sex, a botox explainer, climate change and defining yourself as a mother have in common? They were some of our most popular segments on Mamamia Out Loud in 2018, so we thought we’d revisit them and see what you, our listeners, had to say about them.

A lot has happened in the last 12 months. 

We had a goddamn Olympics and no one even a little bit remembers it.

Kids from Parkland, Florida, became galvanising leaders after yet another preventable school shooting.

We had not one but TWO royal weddings, and staunch republicans threw on a tiara and critiqued the very problematic British monarchy as they shed a tear at the astounding romance of the whole thing.

Here’s a recap of everything you forgot happened in 2018...

It’s Christmas Day. A day in the calendar that can be filled with joy or sadness. Either way, the Mamamia Outlouders are here to wish you Happy Holidays and give you some pointers on how to avoid an awkward conversation with Uncle Dave over the turkey/ham/salad/turducken/ whatever is floating your boat this festive season.  

On the show today we will be answering two very different Christmas Day group therapies and giving you some conversation starters for all that socialising you're about to be doing. And Jessie will be professing her hate for Christmas songs. So there really is something for everyone.

Women are going to extreme lengths to have an orgasm... The O-shot is a procedure which “takes blood from the patient’s arm, spins it in a centrifuge to “activate” it and produce “high quality” Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)."  This is then injected into the area below the urethra and into the vaginal wall to help you achieve orgasm.  And it will set you back $1700. But is not having an orgasm really something to be embarrassed about or should we all stop putting so much pressure on ourselves?

Plus its holiday season but there’s plenty of workaholics refusing to pull themselves away from the office. If that's you, we'll tell you why you need to pack your bags and put your feet up. 

And in these times of female empowerment and equal opportunity why are we still not ok with women proposing to men?

All this and more with Rachel Corbett, Leigh Campbell and Jessie Stephens on the latest episode of Mamamia Out Loud...

Recommendations 

Leigh wants you to visit her You Beauty store at Sydney Airport Terminal 2. 

Jessie wants you to listen to the Book Club podcast and download The Dream Podcast.

Rach wants people to watch Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them and tell Jessie that she's wrong.

The bosses are on holidays so things are getting a little rowdy on this week's episode of Out Loud as Rachel Corbett and Leigh Campbell jump in the studio with Jessie.

Bachelor couple Matty J and Laura Byrne are having a baby. It’s glorious news, especially after they suffered a miscarriage earlier this year. And what’s even better is that they are having a baby without getting married, and in a year of big fancy weddings that’s refreshing as all hell.

Plus, we unpack everything you need to know about Yael Stone’s allegations against Geoffrey Rush.

We solve an uncomfortable group therapy and discuss the relationship feeling that every human on the planet has.

Strap yourselves in, it’s going to be a fun ride.

Karl Stefanovic married Jasmine Yarbrough over the weekend in Mexico and he's released photos to the media despite saying he'd be doing "no media deal."  So, can you have a problem with being followed by paparazzi if you're willing to profit from your fame?

Holly is about to fly back to the UK for Christmas and right into the heart of the Brexit mess.  It's two years on and not much has changed except that British Prime Minister Theresa May has survived a vote of no confidence. So what does it all mean and how did we get here? Holly’s ready to explain with the help of a trusty poo analogy.  

Plus, Jessie is concerned that our obsession with sleep is keeping us awake. Turns out our need for sleeping apps, sprays, magnesium oil, special pillowcases and dark rooms is making us MORE anxious. So what should we do?

Oh, and we've also got our best Lady Startup recommendations for Christmas...

Jessie: The Little Book of Bad Moods: Be Your Worst Self by Lotta Sonninen

Mia: Tiff Manuell https://tiffmanuell.com/

Holly: How To Be Perfect and The Mummy Bloggers as well as anything from the Inappropriate Gift Co

It's Christmas party season so Holly is going to take you through all the rules you need to know to make sure you're doing it right.  Spoiler alert, if you're a fan of Prosecco you might be disappointed.  And since we're all being forced to mingle with work peeps, we share the perfect conversation starter if you hate small talk.

Plus we discuss the domestic violence video that's gone global with some very predictable fallout.  

And, surprise surprise, Jessie doesn’t like Christmas Carols, but there's one she finds particularly problematic...

If you've come looking for Elf On The Shelf tips you're in the wrong place. We're in the lead-up to Christmas and Holly's in the depths of Elf On The Shelf hell, for the umpteenth year running. But she's having a far better week than Chris Dawson, who was arrested for the suspected murder of his wife Lynette. He's been extradited to Sydney and refused bail. And it's all thanks to the incredible Hedley Thomas and the Teacher's Pet podcast, as well as some new witness statements. Plus, the Mamamia Out Loud team tackle a group therapy from a listener who's struggling with her ex-partner's new wedding plans. She wants to crawl into a hole and... drink. And what is The Merit Myth? It's had an effect on Sarah Hansen-Young in passing weeks, but funnily enough on very few men.
