  • The Budget For Basic B*tches

    It's budget week! On Tuesday night Jim Chalmers handed down his third budget and we found out exactly how the Labor government is planning on spending Aussie money this next financial year. 

    Labelled 'a win for women', this budget had a strong focus on issues like women's health and changes to paid parental leave. 

    In this episode of The Quicky, we break down the winners and losers from Federal Budget 2024.

  • A Teen Boy Once Told Me A Classmate was Rapable, Here's What He Says About That Now

    Recently, yet another Australian school has found itself in the midst of controversy surrounding the behaviour of some of their male students. 

    The students had created and circulated a spreadsheet with the names of their fellow female classmates. It included photos of the girls alongside a ranking system from wifeys, cuties, mids, objects, get out and unrapable. 

    When news broke about this, a lot of people asked why? 

    In this episode of The Quicky, we speak to a man who, as a teenager, said something horrific about a female peer, to find out why he said it, and what he thinks about it all these years later.
