  • Dear Wiggles: What Happens When a Wiggles Show Goes Very Wrong?

    Anthony joins Simon and Lachy to talk all things Wiggles live shows - what changes between a small local venue and a huge arena, how much of the show is planned, and how much can change once there’s an audience in the room.

    They also get into the gigs where things went properly off the rails - and the stories are very good!

  • Jessie Stephens Thought She Knew Twins. Then She Had Them.

    The last time Jessie Stephens came into Wiggle Talk, she was very pregnant with twins. What none of us knew was that she was already in the early stages of labour.

    Her waters broke that night. Three days later, Margot and Harry arrived.

    Now, six months on, the writer, author and Mamamia Out Loud co-host is back - and we’re taking her back to some of the things she told us before she had any idea what was coming.

    So, how much did pregnant Jessie get right?

  • Dear Wiggles: How Much Is Too Much for a Child’s Birthday Gift?

    Birthday parties seem to come with a whole new set of rules - how much do you spend, what do you buy for a child you barely know, and what happens when the presents start piling up?

    Simon and Lachy talk birthday gift pressure, $5 parties and whether “no presents” is ever the answer. Then Simon shares a more personal side of raising an only child - the questions he and Lauren have wrestled with, the assumptions other people make, and why he’s learning to focus on the family they have now.

  • What Your Kids Hear When You Talk About Your Body

    That throwaway comment about needing to work off dessert, hating a photo of yourself or wishing your body looked different? Your children may be listening more closely than you realise.

    2023 Australian of the Year Taryn Brumfitt and body image researcher Dr Zali Yager from The Embrace Collective join Simon and Lachy to unpack how children learn to think about their bodies, often long before the teenage years. They talk about the language we use around food, exercise and appearance, what to say when children start comparing themselves to others, and the small things parents can do now to help build a healthier relationship with their bodies as they grow.

Alongside their own stories, they welcome guests - from parenting experts to well-known personalities - who bring fresh perspectives and practical wisdom to the table.
