The Moment with Myf Warhurst

Surrogacy is a controversial topic, with headlines regularly sparked by Hollywood stars like Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton, and most recently Lena Dunham, opting to build their families this way. Today, Myf talks to Sally, who shares her experience as an "altruistic surrogate" here in Australia, where the rules differ significantly from the US as surrogates here can't be paid for the arrangement. Sally walks us through her incredible journey helping her best friend have a child of their own, and all the ups, downs and paperwork that come with the surrogacy process.

*Hosted by the queen of culture herself, *The Moment with Myf Warhurst* unpacks ‘The Moment’ that has everyone talking, diving deeper than the headlines to give the details you need in the time you’ve got.

Ex Masterchef contestant and award-winning cookbook author, Alice Zaslavsky, joins Myf to talk about her new book, Weeknights with Alice. The cookbook is a guide to weeknight meals so you can cook with whatever's in your fridge and Alice's cure for "food teague" (that overwhelmed, uninspired feeling at dinnertime). Alice also shares her tips for cooking when you live alone, including cooking for "future you”, and how food connects us to our bodies, our communities and each other.

Actor, writer and disability advocate Hannah Diviney joins Myf for Mental Health Month, opening up about living with cerebral palsy, the lack of disability representation she grew up with, and the accidental path that led her from Instagram advocacy to the premier of Wuthering Heights and receiving a compliment from Jacob Elordi. They talk candidly about managing mental health in a creative industry built on rejection, why curiosity and self compassion are central to Hannah's approach to life, and the courage it took to deliver her Senate testimony against NDIS funding cuts.

Myf catches up with Paul Kelly to talk about his album ‘Seventy’ marking his 70th year. They dig into why albums still matter to him, the joy of reaching a flow state and the surprise that comes with writing a great song. Paul also reflects on learning to play the jazz standard "Stardust" during lockdown, and the two attempt to sum up each decade of life in a single word or phrase, from "becoming" in his thirties to "still a fool" in his seventies.

Kate Miller-Heidke joins Myf to talk about her exciting new album The Kiss and the Abyss, a "gothic folk" record, made without worrying about how it fits together or who it pleases. They chat about how getting older as a woman has meant less people pleasing, more creative fearlessness and how shedding old parts of yourself leads to discovering new versions of yourself.

Myf has a jam packed episode dissecting what everyone is talking about this week. Anthropic researcher resigns in protest, warning that AI could pose an extinction-level risk within years, adding to the wider discussions about social media algorithm opt-outs and the platforms' resistance to changing systems that profit from engagement and division. Then, Alanis Morissette speaks candidly about her experience with postpartum psychosis on Call Her Daddy and Celine Dion makes an emotional return to the stage after years sidelined by illness. Myf also touches on the unnerving Elizabeth Holmes documentary from Nathan Fielder and some farrrrshun news involving gardening!

Today Myf brings you an episode from The Lizzy Hoo Show and the guest is none other than Myf herself. Myf recounts the outrageous tale of being upgraded to business class and getting a little too excited with the champagne. Oblivious at the time, Myf later pieces together hazy memories of finding herself in parts of the plane she definitely shouldn’t have been, and vomiting in places she absolutely shouldn’t have either.
