The Quicky

While the internet has been going through the Erik & Lyle Menendez case with a fine tooth comb, so too has the Los Angeles County top Prosecutor George Gascón.

He's since recommended the Mendendez brothers, who are currently serving life in prison without parole, be resentenced.

But what would life on the outside look like for Erik & Lyle? Now in their 50s, they've been locked up since early adulthood and the outside world has changed drastically.

They wouldn't be the first high profile people released from prison, but what could they learn from others who've walked free before them?

ICYMI: There's a serial killer on the loose in Byron Bay... allegedly.

People are starting to connect the dots between multiple cases of women going missing or being murdered in the Byron and New South Wales coastal areas, including women with their own first-hand encounters.

So how likely is it all these cases and run ins are linked? And what's the underlying lesson we can all take away from these experiences?

Ever found yourself in the dressing room, frustrated, flustered and half naked because the pair of jeans you're wrestling with just won't fit? Yeah, us too.

Turns out not all pieces of clothes are made the same (shocker, we know).

Our friends at Mamamia's fashion podcast Nothing To Wear have been investigating why our clothes don't always fit properly, even when we buy the correct size for our bodies.

Serious question... will you join our coven?

It feels like witches and magic are everywhere at the moment, and we don't just mean because it's Halloween. 

From television shows to trending on TikTok, the rise of modern witches is not something to ignore.

But what is a modern witch? Is it all a bit 'woo woo' or something we can all get onboard with?

Jackie O, known for her outrageous and popular radio show with Kyle Sandilands, has just released her memoir The Whole Truth.

In addition to revealing a stint in rehab, Jackie O has announced all profits from the book will go directly to Odyssey House, a rehabilitation service who provide treatment not dissimilar to that which Jackie sought.

The memoir has started a conversation we often shy away from... what is rehab actually like and how is visibility in this field? Today we find out.
