Mamamia Out Loud

You know the feeling: someone cancels plans and it's like a hit of a sweet, sweet drug. Why are we so crap at committing to things?  The Rachel Dolezal story we can't stop talking about. The one reason every woman should watch Orange Is The New Black, and the very best reason to put down your razor. #fasshion

Armpit hair, don't care.

There's a man in the studio. Osher Gunsberg, host of The Bachelor, is our special guest. Season three has wrapped and it takes about 30 seconds until we start probing him for info. Does he have favourites? Does he try and swing the Bachelors decision? Does he feel sorry for the contestants? Has he ever...you know...fallen for one of Bachie's girls?

Then we just keep digging. Sex. Mental Illness. Tell us everything.  

It's a side of Osher you've never heard before.

Parenting is easy. All pregnant bodies are beautiful. You can eat chocolate cake for breakfast and still lose weight. And this federal budget was definitely not a strategic pre-election sweetener. Welcome to Mamamia Outloud: the podcast that calls out bullshit. Today, why Struggle Street is the most important TV show of the year. Why the budget lockup is like the Hunger Games.  We meet a meditating mother, and ask Masterchef to stop messing with the classics. Finally, we say goodbye to one of the founding members of the podcast team. Sniff.

Show notes

Warning: we use the F word in this episode.
