The Quicky

Ever watch a TikTok and think omg ME!

You're not alone... and when it comes to self-diagnosis ADHD, the countless videos on the app would have us believe we're all living with the condition.

But how much truth is there to it? And how much of our self diagnosis is actually accurate? 

And in headlines today Pope Francis suffered a stroke before slipping into a coma and experiencing cardio circulatory collapse, the 88 year old passing away on Easter Monday; Early polling stations open cross the country today as millions of Aussies prepare to cast their votes before May 3; Donald Trump is standing behind Secretary of Defence Pete Hegseth after reports he shared classified information in a second group chat; Foo Fighters front man Dave Grohl has made a surprise appearance at Coachella, performing with the LA Philharmonic Orchestra

This is an episode about an epic friendship between two women.

It transcends marriages, divorce, miscarriage and sex and ends in the most poignant, tragic, beautiful way.

When Molly was 41, she was given a life-changing diagnosis. And instead of living out the life she'd built with her husband, she left their 15-year marriage to go and have hot sex with strangers. Dozens of them.

And her friend Nikki... what was she to do? Judge her? Encourage her? Support her?

Well, they started a podcast together, called Dying For Sex. 

In this episode, Mia Freedman sits down with Nikki Boyer, actress and podcast host, to discuss her lifelong friendship with Molly, some hilarious sex stories and what happens when you lose your best friend.
