  • The Lady Vanishes: The Unresolved Story Of A Hit Podcast

    The Lady Vanishes Podcast has kept us on the edge of our seat for the past 5 years as it investigated the case of missing Australian woman Marion Barter. 

    Five years later, that podcast has come to an end. But are we any closer to knowing the truth about what really happened to Marion? 

    In this episode of The Quicky, we speak to the executive producer of The Lady Vanishes, about the decades worth of evidence they sifted through and what was realised since the investigation began.

  • Don’t Charge Your Phone Overnight, A Real Warning Or Tech Myth?

    You've heard all the stories about how you're supposed to treat your technology right? Like not charging your phone overnight, or near your body. That Siri and Alexa are always listening and tracking us. Or that you dump your phone in rice when it's wet. 

    So what exactly is the truth? 

    In this episode of The Quicky, we speak with our resident tech expert, Trevor Long, to find out the fact from fiction when it comes to our devices.

    They're the puppet masters of our favourite reality TV shows.

    From the moment a celeb is recruited or a person is plucked from obscurity to star in the latest cooking, dating or survival show, Reality TV producers are back there, pulling the strings, recruiting the biggest personalities and making sure each and every episode will be packed full of drama and scandal.

    So why do they do it? What war stories can they share? And who are worse, the normies or the celebs? Reality TV producers spill the tea on what really happens behind the reality TV curtain from MAFS to MKR and Masterchef.

  • Sam Kerr's Reverse Racism - It's Not A Thing

    Sam Kerr. We know her. We love her. But our love was called into question this week, when it was revealed that in January last year, after our star Matilda had been out celebrating, a drunken taxi ride in Twickenham ended with her throwing up and allegedly arguing with the cabbie over the fare. 

    Police were then called where Kerr reportedly got into an altercation with a white police officer, allegedly calling him a 'stupid white bastard'. She's since been charged with racially aggravated harassment. 

    But what exactly constitutes racism? Can a person of colour be racist towards a white person? 

    In this episode of The Quicky we take a look at exactly this with Craig Foster, who admits to reevaluating his initial opinions of Sam following the news.

  • Princess Kate & That Photoshop Failure

    Growing out a fringe, recovering from a BBL, even accusations that she might be Banksy? These were just some of the conspiracies clouding the Royals last month after Princess Kate was not seen following a planned abdomen surgery for a serious but undisclosed health condition. 

    And earlier this week, hoping to put an end to the conspiracy theories, a photo of Princess Kate and her three kids on Mother's Day was posted to the official Instagram of Kate & William. Hours later a kill notice was issued because the photo had been manipulated. 

    In this episode of The Quicky, we speak to our resident royal expert, Holly Wainwright about what exactly happened following that photo and what it means for the Royals now.
