    THE QUICKY: Amelia Lester On The Blue Wave Nov 05, 2026
    Show notes

    A blue wave just swept across America, with Democrats seizing both houses of Congress and flipping states like Texas and Kansas that haven’t voted that way in decades.

    Our very own Amelia Lester joins The Quicky to unpack what it means for Trump’s final two years, from the Iran war to AI, and the voters who abandoned him. Plus, we meet the half-Aussie senator some are tipping as the Democrats’ best shot at the White House in 2028.

    Craig Silvey Pleaded Guilty. Then Published A 9000-Word ‘Apology’. Nov 04, 2026
    Show notes

    Yesterday was a big day in Australia. You may or may not have known that it was the Melbourne Cup and there's a specific link between King Charles and Bec Judd that has them not as worried about the interest rates rise as the rest of us.

    On Monday, author Craig Silvey was sentenced to seven months in prison. The same day, he published a 9,000-word ‘apology’ on Substack. We unpack what's in it, what's missing from it and how he was even able to publish it.

    Plus, last year we were all told to ‘Let Them’. Now, a character on Nobody Wants This says we should ‘Make Them’. We ask why men and women are given such different self-help advice.
    Also, Kim Kardashian's authorised biography is out, and Holly has a question: if someone wrote the story of your life, what would you make them take out?

    If you have experienced sexual assault and are in need of support, please call 1800 RESPECT on 1800 737 732. Help is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You can also contact Bravehearts for counselling and support for survivors of sexual abuse on 1800 272 831 and Lifeline for 24-hour crisis support and suicide prevention.

    Jennifer Lawrence’s ‘Hot Mum’ Rebrand & The 3-Day Panic You Can Ignore Nov 02, 2026
    Show notes

    Jennifer Lawrence has launched a hair care line called Mes°, and she’s told the world she wants to be a “sexy mum at drop off”. Amelia had to do some serious soul-searching to work out why she’s so furious about it. Jessie thinks we only have ourselves to blame, and Holly needs a word invented for one very specific feeling.
    Plus, how many tins of baked beans are in your pantry right now? Amelia found out who started the stockpiling panic and we explain why most of it can be ignored.
    Also, a husband-and-wife podcast, a portrait tattoo and an old clip that has aged very badly. Jessie explains the H3 cheating scandal to two people who have never heard of it.
    Plus Martha Stewart has issued a statement about her Halloween costume. It is not an apology. It’s so Martha.

    Love Gap Relationships & It Started With An Argument About A Dish Rack Oct 30, 2026
    Show notes

    Should you love your partner exactly as much as they love you? Holly, Jessie and Em can’t agree, and one of them has a bedtime ritual that might settle it. Then they name the famous couples who aren’t quite equally in love. All speculation of course. Tom and Zendaya, we're looking at you.

    Plus, it started with an Amazon dish rack and a broken wine glass, and ended with a 30-part TikTok series and nine million views. Em unpacks the New York roommate war the internet couldn’t stop picking sides on, and Holly reveals some of the wild stories of her old sharehouse.

    Also, Taylor Swift says Brad Paisley once released thousands of live crickets onto her tour bus. Jessie has questions about men and pranks.

    And, in this week’s reccos, a TV show that’s almost too obvious to recommend (but we couldn’t help ourselves), a book people keep thinking is full of typos and a hair product Em didn’t know she needed.

    Holly Had A Breakdown This Time Last Year. It's Happened Again. Oct 28, 2026
    Show notes

    Out Louders, Dr Carter from ER is all grown up and officially the Sexiest Man Alive. Em Vernem has the tea on how the winner actually gets chosen, and it starts with a very grumpy Mel Gibson. Was Noah Wyle your pick, or was someone robbed?
    Plus, Holly Wainwright saw her first “word of the year” post this week and felt her neck tense up. It isn’t even November and Christmas decorations are already on sale. We ask why this is the exact week the end-of-year panic sets in.

    Also, indoor skydiving, trampoline parks, adult LEGO and now... petting zoos? One Mumsnet mum reckons grown-ups are taking over kids’ days out, and she’s not happy about it. Em will be patting the baby goat regardless.

    And Meghan is coming back to film Junior MasterChef. If she’s in Melbourne for a few weeks, where is she living? Toorak is the early favourite. Melbourne Out Louders, we need your expert opinion.

    SUBS FREE TASTER: "Am I A Bad Friend?" Our Team's Personal Dilemmas Oct 27, 2026
    Show notes

    Mia asked whether two of her kids’ friends were dating. The answer? No, they’re “talking”. Em and Keeshia try to explain the difference between talking, hooking up and dating, and somehow make it worse.

    Plus, Keeshia confesses she’s the friend who never checks in. With the internet now saying that’s a red flag; she's asking whether the weekly “how are you?” text is a kindness or really a chore?

    Today, each of our three hosts brings a dilemma to the table. We’re woefully unqualified, but we give it a red hot go.

    This Is Not A Frivolous Royal Story & Why Your Life Is Chaos Right Now Oct 26, 2026
    Show notes

    For years, the most damning thing anyone could say about Meghan Markle was that she doesn’t speak to her dad. This week, that story took a very dark turn. Holly, Jessie and Amelia unpack the allegations against Thomas Markle (which he denies), Meghan’s response and the role the tabloids have played in all of this.

    Plus, if you’re having a rubbish start to the week, it could be because Mercury is now in retrograde in Scorpio! If that sentence gave you the maths-lady meme face, Amelia explains why the next ten days could change the world.

    Also, Leigh Campbell, host of You Beauty, posted a very serious Instagram carousel over the weekend announcing a big life decision. We break down our thoughts.

    And, Margot Robbie is back on Ramsay Street. Sort of. Yes even though Neighbours has vanished from our screens, it seems it could be coming back in a very different way.

    Plus, if you’re in our wonderful Mamamia Outlouders Facebook group, Holly wants to have a chat…

    The Case Against Being Nice Oct 23, 2026
    Show notes

    Somewhere on Lily Allen’s tour schedule, between soundcheck and emails, was “test butt plug”. Holly unpacks the new merch and asks whether celebrity sex toys are still smart business, or just the new perfume.
    Plus, Jessie makes the case against being nice. Is keeping the peace quietly wrecking our relationships?
    Also, the questions to ask your friends if you actually want to know them better, and why one of them is a slippery slope.
    And of course our weekly reccos, including a podcast interview with a bombshell that had one of us gasping on the train, and Em’s defence of a movie nobody likes at all.

    What The Attack On Helen Haines Has Shown Us & The Russell Brand Strategy Oct 21, 2026
    Show notes

    “Thank you, you lovely people. I appreciate your help.” Those were reportedly Helen Haines’s first words to the strangers who ran to her aid outside her Wangaratta office on Monday. Jessie, Mia and Holly reflect on the woman, described by all sides of politics as the best of us, on the strangers who ran to help her,and on what female politicians are now saying about their safety. Our love goes to Helen and her family.
    Also, Russell Brand is on trial in London, and he and his wife Laura are posting about it every day. Holly unpacks why Britain can’t look away.
    Plus, forget the postcode. Mia is backing a theory that what decides how happy you are is everything within ten minutes of your front door.
    And, Prince Harry sat down with GQ and used the word “reconcile”. Holly nearly broke a thumb clicking.

    SUBS FREE TASTER: "Major Life Update. We're Getting Divorced. Any Questions?" Oct 20, 2026
    Show notes

    What happens when you announce your divorce with an FAQ and forget your Instagram is public? A man named Michael found out, five million views later, and now Em needs answers. Who initiated it? Who gets custody of the pet social account? And are Millie and Bug even dogs?
    Plus, Holly and Jessie discuss the rise of the collab breakup post, and the one detail that tells you a split is anything but amicable.
    Also, Tobey Maguire stands at the altar at his ex-wife’s wedding, as the officiant. Is there a statute of limitations on being friends with your ex?
    And, the hosts reveal exactly how they’d handle a breakup online. Em has a very specific prediction for Holly’s feed involving the garden.
