Still Not Straight

Shan is solo this episode and she has things to say. A lot of things. Mostly about best friends.

Welcome to Episode 3 of Shan Says - the mini-series where you send in your questions and Shan tells you exactly what she thinks, even when you don't want to hear it.

This episode:

💔 Her best friend just went on a date with a guy and her whole world is falling apart. She's not out. She doesn't know what she wants. She just knows she can't watch someone else have what she wants. Shan has two options for her and neither of them are easy.

✈️ They're exclusive, happy, and both moving abroad in a few months so they've agreed to just go back to being friends. Shan has one question: why though?

🚗 Her sister borrowed $4,000 two years ago, has never mentioned it since, and just bought a brand new car. Shan has a word for that. Several words actually.

🤍 She grew up in a house where "I love you" was never said. Her parents are getting older. She wants to start saying it but doesn't know how to introduce it after 30 years. What if they don't say it back? Shan gets into it — and has very strong opinions about "love you" versus "I love you."

💍 Married to a man. Loves him. Not in love with him. Two kids. Nothing is wrong but something doesn't feel right. She doesn't even know what she's asking. She just needed to say it to someone. This one hits different.

😭 She's in love with her straight best friend of 10 years who keeps joking about switching sides after every failed situationship with a man. Does she shoot her shot or stay quiet? Shan has officially had enough of these questions and is asking the comments to intervene.

📩 Got a question for Shannen? Send it in - relationships, coming out, family drama, the stuff you can't say to anyone in your actual life. We want to hear it. Email: [email protected] DM us here.

She's back. The cowboy hat is back. And this time she's brought G - who, for the record, did not volunteer for this.

Welcome to Episode 2 of Shan Says - the mini-series where you send in your questions and Shannen (and apparently G now) give you the most unfiltered, honest, been-there-done-that advice on the internet.In this episode, Shannen and G tackle:

🚪 She hid her girlfriend from her religious parents for TWO YEARS. Then mum saw her on the Ring Doorbell. Then she invented an entire clothing resale business on the spot. What the fuck is wrong with her? (Spoiler: nothing. But also, it's time.)

🏳️‍🌈 Her best friend came out as a lesbian — because of advice SHE gave her. Now she's watching lesbian shows on purpose, saving edits of women, and has a little secret Spotify podcast habit. Shannen has some thoughts. So does G.

👵 She's in her 60s, just downloaded Hinge, and thinks she might be bi. The app's given her crickets so far. Shannen and G give her actual tips — and extend a very special invitation.

💔 Her daughter's dad left when the baby was eight months old. Five years later he made a move when she visited Perth, told her he wants to be with her — just not now. Shannen has a word for him too. (It's cockhead.)🎭 Someone sent in a question so confusing that Shannen, G AND ChatGPT couldn't figure out what they were asking. The audience had to be called in.

🌈 She's been bi since she was eight, only wants women now, and has never actually been with one. She's terrified she'll be shit. G has the most reassuring answer you'll ever hear.

She's not a therapist. She's not a life coach. She's just someone who has been through it — and she will tell you exactly what she thinks.

Welcome to the first ever episode of Shannen Says. The mini-series from Still Not Straight where YOU send in your questions and Shannen gives you the most unfiltered, honest, been-there-done-that advice you didn't know you needed.

In Episode 1, Shannen tackles a big stack of your questions including:

💌 Your best friend's ex is liking all your stories with heart eyes — is there any world where you pursue it?

🚩 She's funny, gorgeous and she's into you. She also still lives with her ex. Your friends say run. Shannen says... it's complicated.

🛒 You're new to the scene, she's been out for years, and you cannot stop thinking about where those toys have been. Do you just... buy new ones?

💔 You present masc, every woman assumes you're a stone top, and all you want is to feel wanted. Shannen has a lot of feelings about this one.

🌈 Your mum has put you on a pedestal your whole life. Now you're out and she thinks you've been brainwashed. How do you make her understand?

😮 You fell for a straight girl. She has a boyfriend. She's texting you while she's on dates with him. Shannen has one word for you. (Okay, a few words. None of them are nice.)

🏳️‍🌈 Your best friend loves hearing about your sex life with men. The moment you mention a woman? Shut down.

Shannen calls it like she sees it.

Nothing is off limits. Nothing is sugar-coated. This is Shannen Says.

It's the season finale of Still Not Straight, and G is joining us on the couch for a conversation about love, relationships and the patterns we carry into both.

Together, we unpack attachment styles, how they show up in dating and friendships, whether they complement or clash with certain personalities, and if it's actually possible to become more secure in the way we connect with others.

Of course, because this is Still Not Straight, we couldn't end the season without a little chaos.

Never Have I Ever and Two Truths and a Lie quickly reveal sides of each other we weren't expecting, proving that after an entire season together, there are still a few surprises left.

Thank you for coming along for the ride this season. Here's to loving ourselves, understanding each other a little better, and never pretending we've got it all figured out.

Michelle has been with Still Not Straight since the early days, and today she's sharing the story behind the comments section.

A story of knowing. Of denying. Of trying to fit into a life that looked right from the outside but felt impossible to live from within.

Because of cultural expectations and her own beliefs, Michelle married a man and followed the path she thought she was meant to take. But in her 40s, the weight of not living authentically became too heavy to carry.

This conversation is honest, tender and deeply hopeful.

It's about grief and freedom. Fear and courage. The cost of hiding and the joy of finally choosing yourself.

Most importantly, it's a reminder that there is no timeline for truth.

If you've ever wondered whether it's too late to change your life, this episode is for you.

Friendships can be some of the greatest love stories of our lives.

This week, Tessa and Shan unpack what makes a truly great friend, the heartbreak of friendship breakups, navigating changing relationships, and what it was like telling the people closest to us that we were gay.

It's a conversation about loyalty, growth, grief and finding your people... with just enough chaos to keep things interesting when Shan introduces a surprise game for Tessa that quickly sends the episode off the rails.

Whether you've outgrown a friendship, found your chosen family, or are figuring out where you fit, this one's for you.

For years, Mitch Brown lived with a secret he wasn't ready to share.

In this honest conversation, the former AFL player and the first openly bisexual man in professional Australian football talks about when he first knew, the fear and shame that kept him silent, and what happened when he finally chose authenticity over hiding.

We unpack masculinity, sport, sexuality, and the pressure so many people feel to fit into the version of themselves the world expects. And, because this is Still Not Straight, Shan somehow manages to bring ass play into the conversation too.

Whether you're queer, questioning, or simply tired of shrinking yourself to make other people comfortable, this episode is a reminder that the life waiting on the other side of fear might just be freedom.

Julia Vogl joins us for a vulnerable, funny and very honest conversation about bisexuality, reality TV, queer identity and the assumptions that still exist around being bi in 2026.

From MAFS edits and public scrutiny to dating men, dating women, queer spaces, insecurity, labels, and the pressure to “pick a side” we unpack the conversations people usually avoid.

We also get brutally honest about our own experiences, misconceptions we’ve had in the past, and what bisexual representation actually means.

Dating women comes with a few surprises no one really warns you about.

In this episode, we unpack the expectations vs reality of dating women, the emotional awareness, the trauma, the jealousy, the communication, the things that shocked us, and the parts of lesbian relationships that aren't always talked about.

From bad dates to relationship dynamics to the infamous Tessa & Riley Jacob Elordi situation… this one gets honest, chaotic, and very Still Not Straight.
