Today we're sharing with you some of the highlights of the last seven months, as well as some of the bits that never quite made it to air.

If you're new to this podcast, welcome. It's a weekly look at what's making news, and some of the bigger issues we're talking about.

Today: should we feel bad for critiquing women on the red carpet? The baby name trend we desperately need to save. And if we're in one of the fattest developed nations in the world, why do a lot of people hate healthy-food-advocate Pete Evans?

Plus, when SIRI goes AWOL.

Harvard study shows daughters of working mothers enjoy better careers, higher pay and more equal relationships

The genderless baby name trend
