The Quicky

Tonight, the Matilda's are hoping to take another step forward on their record breaking journey through this Women's World Cup. 

There is a squad of 23 women who suit up for the matches, but there is also a group of women who came close to being a part of it, only to be cut at the final stage and forced to watch on from the sidelines. 

In this episode of The Quicky we speak to Chloe Logarzo about what it's like to watch on as her teammates and friends make history knowing you were so close to being part of the fairytale.

The contraceptive pill. Its job is to stop unwanted pregnancies. But did you know there's a huge variety of options for what brand and type of pill you can take? 

But when you look at the list of oral contraceptives on the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme there's quite a few of those available in Australia not on it, in fact, most of the contraceptive pills available here in Australia are not on the PBS. 

In this episode of The Quicky, we find out why some contraceptive pills have been allowed on the list, and why the new generation of the pill are not, and whether that will be changing anytime soon.

Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg are fighting. Like actual fighting. 

With one challenging the other to a cage fight, there's been an escalation that might see the billionaires enter the UFC octagon for real. 

If you're wondering why, you're not alone. 

In this episode of The Quicky, we look at the motivation for these two men to continue publicly baiting each other for a fight, and whether it might be nothing more than a good old fashioned PR stunt.
