No Filter

Jameela Jamil may as well be Aussie, she feels like one of us—funny, unfiltered, and refreshingly nonchalant.

You might know her as Tahani from The Good Place, but these days she’s just as well known for her fearless activism on body image, mental health, and gender equality.

What you'll hear in this conversation:

• Why she refuses to give men like Andrew Tate airtime
• Her call to rethink the way we talk about masculinity
• The link between friendship and mental health
• Why she’s counting down to turning 40
• And how she’s learnt to appreciate aging, change, and letting go of the pressure to please. 

Jameela doesn’t hold back—and thank god. This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt like they didn’t quite fit the mold, who’s had a complicated relationship with their body or their mind, or who simply wants to hear a refreshingly honest take on what it means to be a woman right now

Jameela is currently touring the country, if you would like learn more and get tickets, follow the link here.

Adam Kay knew exactly who he wanted to play him in the TV version of his life.

After spending years working in hospitals across the UK, mostly in obstetrics and gynaecology, Adam—completely burnt out—took a break. What was meant to be a short pause turned into 14 years and counting.

During his training in the labour wards, Adam kept a diary. Those diary entries would later become a best-selling book (This Is Going To Hurt, which sold over 5 million copies), and eventually a hit TV series starring Ben Whishaw as Adam.

In this candid, emotional, and at times hilarious conversation, Adam talks about:

– The human cost of being a doctor
– Why mental health support in medicine is so urgently needed
– What changes are essential—both in the UK and here in Australia
– And… the strangest things people have turned up to hospital with inside their bodies. 

This episode is a must-listen for anyone who’s ever been a patient, worked in healthcare, or simply wants to understand the real cost of caring.

If you'd like to see Adam Kay live in Australia, he's currently touring the country. You can look at his tour dates here.

This is an episode about an epic friendship between two women.

It transcends marriages, divorce, miscarriage and sex and ends in the most poignant, tragic, beautiful way.

When Molly was 41, she was given a life-changing diagnosis. And instead of living out the life she'd built with her husband, she left their 15-year marriage to go and have hot sex with strangers. Dozens of them.

And her friend Nikki... what was she to do? Judge her? Encourage her? Support her?

Well, they started a podcast together, called Dying For Sex. 

In this episode, Mia Freedman sits down with Nikki Boyer, actress and podcast host, to discuss her lifelong friendship with Molly, some hilarious sex stories and what happens when you lose your best friend.

Madeleine West has lived many lives— from Neighbours’ Dee Bliss to Underbelly’s Danielle McGuire, she’s been a fixture on Australian screens for decades.

Beyond acting, she’s also an advocate, a survivor, and now, at 47, she’s stepping into a surprising new chapter... motherhood for the seventh time.

What she first thought was menopause turned out to be an unexpected pregnancy, something that took time to embrace. But that’s not the only battle Madeleine has faced. Just a few years ago, she made the courageous decision to help police uncover a pedophile—the man who abused her as a child.

In this deeply personal and powerful conversation, Madeleine opens up about:

• How she came to terms with becoming a mother again at 47
• The media storm that forced her to announce her pregnancy before she was ready
• The darkness she had to push through to become the woman she is today
• The moment she wore a wire to confront her abuser

This is a story of survival, strength, and reclaiming your own narrative - no matter how impossible it may seem.

You probably know the name Amanda Knox but not for the reasons she would have wanted.

At just 20 years old, Amanda found herself at the centre of a global media storm, wrongfully convicted of her roommate’s murder in Italy. She spent four years in prison before being exonerated, but the damage was done. The world had already decided who she was.

What You’ll Hear:

• The media’s obsession with Amanda and how the truth got lost
• The psychological tactics of police interrogations
• How she navigated life in prison and found an unlikely role for herself
• What it means to start over after global scrutiny
• Motherhood, justice and protecting her own daughter’s future

This is a story of survival, resilience and reclaiming a life that was nearly stolen. Amanda Knox is finally Free.

You can buy Amanda Knox memoir Free, here. Or her first book, Waiting To Be Hear, here. 

Or you can listen to her podcast Labyrinths.

Self-Worth, Social Media & Loving The Skin You're In.

Like most young girls growing up in a media-driven world, there comes a moment when you realise your body is being compared to others. For today’s guest, Riley Hemson, that moment came at just 10 years old—when she first believed that her worth was entirely tied to how her body looked.

Ironically, her journey to realising that wasn’t true came through social media—the very thing that often makes people feel less than. Now, Riley is not just an Instagram influencer—she's a business owner, the founder of Remmie by Riley, and a proud ambassador for L'Oreal Paris' Talk Their Worth Campaign, using her platform to inspire women to embrace their value unapologetically and without compromise.

What You’ll Hear:

- Riley’s journey from paramedicine to social media influence
- How sharing her life online helped her find confidence
- The impact of body image struggles from a young age
- Her experience launching Remmie by Riley and becoming a L’Oréal Paris ambassador
- The power of embracing your worth—online and offline

This episode is a must-listen for anyone struggling with self-doubt, body image, or the pressures of social media.

We have a very special treat for you! You're going to want to send this episode to your best friend immediately. Because it's about the power of the most important relationships in many of our lives - the one we have with our great mates. One our very favourite episode's from this season of MID. 

You would know Amanda Keller from her many decades as an Australian television and radio presenter, comedian, writer, actress and journalist. You might be meeting her best friend forensic psychologist Anita McGregor for the first time, but once you have, you'll know exactly why these two have been inseparable since they first met, 17 years ago.

This conversation goes everywhere from the things your friends can hold your hand through and what they can't. When and if you should offer your best friend "feedback", and what happens to your relationships with everyone and everything - from your friends to your work and your grown-up kids, as you move more into Mid.

You can listen to Amanda and Anita on their podcast, Double A Chattery, here

If you'd like to listen to more MID you can listen to season four here.
