Rowan Mangan never expected to be part of a throuple. Neither did her two partners, Martha Beck and Karen Gerdes who had been together for several decades before Rowan came into their lives.
Today, the three women are in a monogamous relationship with one another and are raising a toddler after Rowan gave birth to their daughter during the pandemic.

In this No Filter episode Mia Freedman asks Rowan how it all works. How did they decide they wanted to be together? How did their families react? How do they deal with jealousy? And who has to sleep in the middle because that seems like it would be uncomfortable.

Rowan is on Instagram here. Rowan & Martha's podcast Bewildered is here.

This is a story about a massive dilemma we're all about to face. What if there was a 'magic pill' that could turn off your appetite? Would you take it? 

Ozempic and other weight loss injections are predicted to have as much impact on our culture as smartphones. 

Johann Hari is a journalist and best-selling author who has been taking Ozempic for more than a year and it's changed his life. For better and for worse. He joins Mia Freedman to talk about weight loss, body image, celebrities, lies, risks and benefits.
His new book is called The Magic Pill: The Extraordinary Benefits And Disturbing Risks of the New WeightLoss Drugs

Ozempic: Johann Hari's Very Personal Story

Subscribe to Mamamia

Marian Keyes, one of the most successful authors in the world, has forgotten how to read three times.
Once when she fell into a pit of depression that lasted four years and nearly cost her her marriage and her life. Once at the start of Covid. And last year, after her father died. 

Marian joins Mia Freedman to reveal how she got through it, as well as how she let go of bitterness and grief that came with not being able to have children with her husband.

And despite thinking alcohol was the love of her life she’s managed to stay sober for 30 years. Why does she still call herself an alcoholic? 

Marian's new book My Favourite Mistake is available here.

Marian's many other novels and her cook book are available on her website here.

Marian is on Instagram here.

On September 10, 2023,  17-year-old Fletcher Crowley’s life changed in an instant when an ordinary day out with his mates went bad. In that moment, his whole family was impacted in ways they’re only just starting to understand. So six months later, how are they doing? Fletcher and his parents, Nicky and Pat join Mia Freedman to talk about that day and the unexpected aftermath.

You can help the Crowley family and many others by signing this petition to get PBS approval for a life-saving drug for those with the rare form of cancer called VHL like Levi.

Fletcher's foundation Get Silly is here, if you want to buy a jumper or shirt and support spinal cord research and rehab.

Tammy Hembrow is rich, famous and entirely self-made. At just 29, she has two thriving businesses worth an estimated $50m, three kids, two ex fiancés, she’s getting married in a few months to a man she insists is the love of her life.

Yes, back in 2018 she had an unfortunate incident at Kylie Jenner’s 21st that was a low point in her life. It was made far worse by the fact it was captured by paparazzi whose photos went viral. 
But in a way, it was a good thing because it changed the direction of her career for the better.
Tammy joins Mia Freedman in the No Filter studio to talk about her big life and why she’s barely done any interviews until now.
Tammy's new book Show Up is available here.
