Today we talk about the TikTok trend, 'rejection therapy'. Where people put themselves in embarrassing situations and film it to overcome their fears of judgement and others. Do we think it's annoying? Has it gone too far? What is the psychological merit in exposure therapy? What are our own experiences with rejection? Joining us today are our friends <a href="https://www.instagram.com/kathebbs/?hl=en">Kath Ebbs</a> and Carmen Azzopardi (<a href="https://www.instagram.com/zigs_mom/?hl=en">zigs mom</a>) who are also the hosts of the podcast <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/3iaZOZQTWbT7M7lk3oNEJY?si=3310d8611b3842f3">I've Always Said That. </a> If you have a topic you want Small Talk to cover next - leave a comment!

SMALL TALK: What Do We Think About 'Rejection Therapy'? With Carmen and Kath

Big Small Talk: 5 PM Tuesdays 
So you want to know what’s happening in parliament, but you also want to know the latest in pop culture? Good, as you should.
From the front page to your newsfeeds, no story is too serious, stale, funny or frivolous. Because, if you haven’t realised, loving pop culture doesn’t mean you don’t understand politics.
Knowing all your shit? That’s hot. New Episodes 5pm Tuesday. 

Small Talk: 6 AM Thursdays 
It might not be tangible news but each week there’s something in the cultural zeitgeist that gets us all talking. We want to unpack these frivolous conversations, from new trends to relationship theories to life advice.
In an age of never-ending small talk, we want to examine how these collective thoughts affect the way we see the world. We may even reach out to a few friends and experts to weigh in. 

Big Talk: Wednesday 6 AM - Last Two Weeks of Every Month 
Over the past few decades, there have been news headlines so shocking that we still hear and feel their impact, such as Roe V Wade, Monica Lewinsky, Epstein, Mabo and Hillsong. 
Don’t you think it’s about time you knew all the important and salacious details about the real stories that have happened that shaped our world today? Come on, I know you’re curious.
