We’re Finally Telling The True Story About The Slender Man Stabbing
What started as a typical sleepover in Wisconsin in 2014 turned into one of the most chilling true crime stories in America. Twelve-year-olds Morgan Geyser and Anissa Weier lured their friend, Payton "Bella" Leutner, into the woods with a plan to kill her as a sacrifice to Slender Man, the creepy internet figure.

Advice From Women Who Have Left A Violent Partner
We can’t ignore the number of domestic violence related crimes carried out across Australia this year. For a lot of women, domestic violence has left them with nothing; no home, no financial stability, and unfortunately in a growing number of cases, no life. Leaving a domestic violence situation can be terrifying, overwhelming and often there are so many moving parts, it can be hard to know where to start. In today’s episode we’ve collated a list of practical things you need to remember before what can be one of the most dangerous, important moments of your life. If you or anyone you know needs to speak with an expert, please contact 1800 RESPECT (1800 737 732) — the National Sexual Assault, Domestic and Family Violence Counselling Service. If you are in immediate danger, call 000.

It's the case that has shocked France and led to protests outside of an Avignon court house.

We know there are chemicals in some of the things we buy that aren't the best for our health, but we maybe didn't consider that they might be in nearly everything. New research from the University of Adelaide's JBI and the Minderoo Foundation has found harmful chemicals in plastic can increase our risks of developing a list of health conditions and the problem is, we don't know which plastics contain them and in what quantities. So how do we stop ourselves from absorbing plastic chemicals when they're in so many of the things we use every day?

OCD Is No Joke - I Thought My Family Would Die
"I wish you could experience it so you would really understand" Obsessive Compulsive Disorder has often been summed up as a person being extremely tidy, or having a quirk where they repeat the same action multiple times.

On today's episode of The Quicky we hear from someone with lived experience of OCD and also an expert to help us understand more about an often overlooked condition.

The Rise And Fall (And Rise Again) Of The Sussexes
You’d be forgiven for thinking Harry & Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, were back in the royal fold, given their recent tour of Nigeria. But alas, they’re still out of favour with the current working royals. But wasn’t this hybrid working model of royal-but-not-fully-royal life what the Sussex's suggested to the Queen back when they were trying to move out of the family fold? Have they shown up the struggling firm by exposing how it could have been for them had they kept the couple on the books? The Quicky team looks into whether this Invictus Games tour of the African nation, is a political manoeuvre or a diversion tactic.

What Did Diddy Do?
Warning: Please note this episode discusses domestic violence and an assault. If that is triggering for you, please take care when listening. A video was recently leaked to US news service CNN of a man in a towel assaulting his girlfriend in a hotel hallway in 2016. That man is Sean Combs, aka P.Diddy, now known as just Diddy. And the woman he was assaulting was his girlfriend at the time, RnB singer Cassie. So what happens now that we have actual video evidence of this? And what do we make of the apology video that followed? In this episode of The Quicky, we speak to The Spill's Laura Brodnik to take a look at exactly what Diddy did, and what happens now.

A Teen Boy Once Told Me A Classmate was Rapable, Here's What He Says About That Now
Recently, yet another Australian school has found itself in the midst of controversy surrounding the behaviour of some of their male students.

Ruby Franke: From 'Momfluencer' to Monster
Please note, this episode speaks of child abuse. The Franke's. They were a stereotypical American mormon family from Utah.

But over the years, loyal fans started voicing their concerns at how the parents were disciplining their children. In this episode of The Quicky we discover what happened when the cameras weren't rolling inside the walls of the Franke house, and how this seemingly normal, albeit strict, mum of 6 was torturing her own children.

The US TikTok Ban Is Coming, Is Australia Next?
Let us all take a moment for our favourite internet personalities who are mourning the potential ban of TikTok in the US. After passing through the United States House of Representatives, a bill to block the social media app from use across the country is sitting with the senate and is looking more and more likely that access to app will eventually be blocked due to privacy and propaganda concerns. So with action to bar Americans from accessing TikTok so rapidly advancing, could something similar happen in Australia too? On today’s episode of The Quicky, we’re on the case.

A Rigged Election & Another 6 Years, What Happens Now Putin's Back In?
Six years. That's how long Vladimir Putin will remain in power in Russia... for now. Earlier this week he was victorious in the country's election - winning in a landslide result of 87.3%.

From MAFS To MKR: Confessions Of A Reality TV Producer
They're the puppet masters of our favourite reality TV shows.

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. Want to try our new exercise app?

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. Want to try our new exercise app?

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.

Is It Time To Dismantle The All Boys School System? Princess Kate's Apology & A New Counselling Service For DV Survivors
Some of Australia's elite all boys schools have been making headlines again - one for all the wrong reasons. Following an exposé revealing female teachers at a Sydney school felt unsafe and marginalised by the toxic behaviours of both students and other teachers. This follows from numerous other reports in recent years, including 2022 when a separate Sydney school expelled six students after a brutal hazing ritual was exposed. So, is it time to dismantle the all boys school system? In this episode of The Quicky, we speak with a man who works with students across Australia teaching healthy masculinity.

What is going on with The Royals? A surgery following King Charles enlarged prostate, William's sudden leave, and until yesterday we hadn't seen a glimpse of Princess Kate in public for months, after undergoing a planned abdominal surgery for a serious but undisclosed health condition. The internet blew up with conspiracies of what might've really happened to Kate, everything from BBL's to bangs. But why are we so distrustful of the information the Royal Family has given us?

Why The TGA Is Cracking Down On Weight Loss Drugs, France Enshrines Right To Abortion & Trump's Back On The Presidential Ballot
Last year when the popularity of weight loss drugs surged, it lead to a worldwide shortage, that is still going on today. In a bid to assist with those shortages, some compounding pharmacists mass-produced their own versions of popular weight-loss drugs. Earlier this week the TGA, which regulates medicines in Australia, proposed a change which would effectively ban compounded injectable weight loss drugs from being made or sold in Australia, due to concerns the drugs may be unsafe or ineffective. In this episode of The Quicky, we shed a light on the safety and effectiveness of compounded drugs compared to their commercial counterparts. Want to try our new exercise app?

Several embryos were destroyed when the patient dropped them. Three couples brought lawsuits against the clinic; which lead to the question: Is a frozen embryo considered a child under Alabama state law? Well, the Supreme Court of Alabama ruled that, yes, a frozen embryo is indeed a child. In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at the implications of this High Court decision, and the likelihood of something like this happening here in our own IVF clinics.

Long Covid & The Way It's Killing Women's Libidos
A new, first of its kind study has revealed a link between women who experience long covid and a decrease in their sexual health. We know so much about how the coronavirus impacted other areas of our health, but this study finally looks at the impact of COVID-19 on 6 key sexual health areas in women, finding those who had contracted covid were more likely to be experiencing sexual disfunction. So can we do anything about it? How do we discuss it with our doctors and why is the world in general having less sex in 2024?

PM: Unlikely Samantha Murphy Will Be Found Alive
The Quicky evening news update for Friday February 3rd 2024. 1. Police say they are investigating if missing Victorian woman Samantha Murphy’s body has potentially been moved as they reveal it is unlikely that the 51 year old will be found alive. Ms Murphy left her Ballarat East home for a jog on the morning of February 4 and hasn’t been seen since, the detectives investigating the case saying they are keeping an open mind about her disappearance but that the most likely scenario is that it involved one or more parties, ruling out a medical episode and with nothing to indicate that she left the area on her own accord, leaving them to believe she has possibly been killed and that her body has since been relocated.. The lead detective wouldn’t say how many suspects they are currently following up but clarified that her Husband Mick was not one of them at this stage. 2. A currently serving police officer has been taken into custody after presenting himself to investigators looking into the disappearance of former channel 10 reporter Jessie Baird and his Qantas flight attendant partner Luke Davies. The 28 year old handed himself in at the Bondi police station shortly after 10:30 this morning after calls from police saying they were looking for a third person who may have information to help them unravel what has happened to the pair, neighbours reporting loud arguments in Baird’s apartment Monday night before blood stained items belonging to both Baird and Davies were found in skip at Cronulla. That discovery led police to Mr Baird’s blood stained apartment in Paddington 30 km away. Detective Superintendent Daniel Doherty said the man, who will be charged with two counts of murder, is the ex partner of Jessie Baird but that no motive has been established at this point, but that they have found a projectile that had been discharged that matched a police firearm and a white van, that is believed to have been used to transport the bodies of the two men after being hired on Monday night, has also been located although the bodies are yet to be found. 3. Deputy opposition leader Sussan Ley has called for the Prime Minister to hand over his ticket to the Taylor Swift Eras Tour, saying he’s not a real Swiftie and should give it up for a true super fan. Speaking to Seven’s Sunrise program Ley says what the PM does on his nights off is of course up to him, and if he wants to see Taylor Swift that’s cool but listening to those who couldn't get tickets ,she sent a message to Anthony Albanese to hand them over to a real Swiftie. Mr Albanese says he’s looking forward to the gig and says he's already been given a bunch of friendship bracelets to prepare for the night. 4. For the first time, the winners of the London Marathon, whether they are able bodied or not, will get equal prize money. The wheelchair category in London was already one of the highest paid purses for a marathon in th

What The Heck Even Is Price Gouging? Supermarket CEO Goes Viral
Our major supermarkets have faced some controversy lately; accused of price gouging customers, stifling competitors and ripping off suppliers. An investigation by Four Corners earlier this week showed a CEO walking out of a sit-down interview, followed by a subsequent announcement that same CEO would be retiring. But what is price gouging? And why is the announcement of a CEO retiring so controversial? In this episode of The Quicky we investigate what our supermarkets are doing and whether we, as the consumers, can be hopeful for improvements in pricing transparency and affordability when we get to the checkouts.

Trump's BIG, HUGE Court Loss & The Potential End Of His NY Business
Donald Trump has been directed by a NY judge to pay $354.9 million in fines imposed due to the fraudulent manner in which he has conducted his business, over-inflating the value of properties to score better deals on loans and insurance and to pay less taxes. That money is what he essentially owes to those institutions he has defrauded, but will he stump up the cash or continue the fight? The question is, can he afford to? And what of the race back to the White House? Does another civil finding against Trump make him less shiny to his supporters, or more relatable as he's seen to be fighting a corrupt system out to get him?

Can Your Boss Still Call You After Right To Disconnect Laws Pass?
Over 90% of Australians have a smart phone. And more often than not, they seem to be stuck to our hot little hands, meaning we can be contacted by anyone at anytime, including by our bosses outside of working hours. But that's all about to change. A new law has passed that gives employees a "right to disconnect" from work, ignoring emails and calls outside of work hours. In this episode of The Quicky, we look at what it actually looks like and what implications it might have on us when we decide to hit ignore on the bosses calls or leave them on read.

"It's Really Infuriating": Teacher Confessional After First Weeks Back
We often think about how the kids and parents are coping in those first few days and weeks of school, but what about those who've been back in the classroom way before the students? Teachers have been busy getting the classroom ready for the new influx of faces, learning the names of 30 to 100 children to make sure they don't feel alone in their education experience, sometimes taking money out of their own pockets to ensure those in schools with less funding, have the ability to at least write on something or with something. But despite the difficulties (yes, we include parental interactions in that category) teachers describe the joy they feel when the school year begins again. Want to try our new exercise app?

Elmo Inspired A Social Media Trauma Dump; Why Aren't We Ok?
Elmo becoming the internet's therapist was not on my 2024 bingo card, but here we are!

Forget "Quiet Luxury", 2024 Is All About "Loud Budgeting"
If 2023 was the year of 'quiet luxury', 2024 is the year of 'loud budgeting', which involves openly discussing financial decisions and constraints and feeling proud to say no to spending non-essential money. No longer are we putting ourselves into debt for things we can't afford. Takeout, coffees, food delivery services and streaming are just some of the things Aussies are willing to go without to pinch a few pennies. In this episode, we investigate whether this new way of handling your finances can really help you get there with more in your pocket. Want to try our new exercise app?

Boy Swallows Universe Reminds Us Of A Time Before Tech
When Trent Dalton's best selling book Boy Swallows Universe hit the small screen this year, it brought with it all the Brisbane 1980's vibes with it. As Eli Bell navigates his way through his troubling but beautiful life, he is surrounded by markers of a time gone by, with fat back TV's, cassette players, cars with window winders and landline telephones with a dial. For those who grew up during this time it's a reminder of a simpler life where technology didn't rule our universe, but do we really want to go back to that? And even if we wanted to, could we? The Quicky team investigates what it would take to turn back tech time. Want to try our new exercise app? Click here to start a seven day free trial of MOVE by Mamamia.

She Brings In Millions But The NFL Bros Are Still Mad At Taylor Swift
This time next week the 58th Superbowl will be mere hours from starting. The San Francisco 49ers and the Kansas City Chiefs will go head to head in Las Vegas. And stepping onto that field is none other than Travis Kelce, aka Taylor Swift's boyfriend! He's vying for his second Superbowl in a row, his third in total. For the Swifties, Taylors appearance at games throughout the NFL season has been an exciting glimpse into her real life. The NFL bros haven't exactly shared that excitement. Taylor Swift is known for her love of "easter eggs". She hides little hints of new music, tour announcements, and everything in between for her fans to discover. It's also worth noting that Taylor's favourite number is 13. In this episode of The Quicky, we'll be breaking down the superstitions and patterns Swiftie's have discovered ahead of the big game that basically guarantees her man will win the Superbowl.

The History Of High Heels Did Not Start With Women
If you're a woman, there's a chance you've probably worn high heels before. So you know how uncomfortable they can be. Yet, for many different reasons, despite the pain, we continue to slip our feet into 4, 6, even 8 inch heels. For some, they make you feel powerful, others like the additional height they provide, some like how they make our butts and legs look. But did you know heels were never intended to walk in? In this episode of The Quicky we're going back in time to understand the history of the high heel, how they were meant for men and whether they are considered a feminist or anti-feminist statement.

Heath Ledger’s Lasting Impact On Aussies In Hollywood
We are in the thick of awards season, and so far we've seen a few Aussies take home some pretty impressive accolades. We know Hollywood is chock full of Australians. Margot Robbie, Cate Blanchett, Hugh Jackman, Chris Hemsworth, just to name a few. But arguably the most notable Australian to make it big in Hollywood was the late Heath Ledger. In this episode of The Quicky, as we remember Heath Ledger's passing on January 22 2008, we hear from a friend of the Ledger family and recipient of the Heath Ledger scholarship about just how much Heath did, and still does, for his fellow Aussie actors.

The Relaunch Of Gypsy Rose Blanchard, She's Not That Little Girl Anymore
Her entire childhood, Gypsy Rose Blanchard was made to believe she was sick. Her mother, 'Dee Dee' as she was known, told Gypsy, and the world, that her daughter was terminally ill, confined to a wheelchair with her head shaved. Gypsy was told she had leukaemia, seizures, muscular dystrophy and developmental issues. She was fed through a feeding tube. In 2015 Gypsy and her then boyfriend Nicholas Godejohn, whom she met online, plotted to murder Dee Dee. In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at the life of Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

What Happens To Your Digital Footprint After You Die?
Have you ever wondered what happens to your online presence after you die? Now with technology like AI and holograms, we're seeing a rise in reanimations to create a version of someone deceased to interact with long after they're gone. We've seen Tupac and Michael Jackson appear via hologram at concerts, Kim Kardashian's famous father was immortalised as a birthday present to her and just last year The Beatles released a new single using AI technology to isolate John Lennon's voice from a late 1970's demo. But how would you feel if someone reanimated you using your digital footprint? In this episode of The Quicky we take a look at the moral and ethical arguments around what to do with your digital remains. Want to try our new exercise app?

Would You Show ID To Watch Online Porn?
Sunshine Coast MP Andrew Wallace is trying to stop our kids from watching porn online.

The Cash & Cred You Need To Get A Hollywood Walk Of Fame Star
Earlier this week Zac Efron joined an elite group of actors, singers, athletes and broadcasters when he was honoured with his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. While we've seen the likes of Ryan Reynolds, Dwayne Johnson, Gwen Stefani, Snoop Dogg and even Mickey Mouse accept their star on the famous footpath, have you ever thought about how exactly these stars come about?

Why The U.S Is Holding Back A Gaza Ceasefire
Yesterday three Prime Ministers, including our own, came together to call for a sustainable ceasefire in the Gaza Strip. The call came as the UN General Assembly voted overwhelmingly to demand the same, in a strong show of global support for ending the Israel Hamas war. But Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said a ceasefire is not an option. In this episode of The Quicky, we look at what it will take to make a ceasefire happen - is international pressure enough to force Israel and Hamas to lay down their weapons?

End Of Year Burnout Is Real But What Type Are You Experiencing?
There seems to be two types of people through the month of December. The first are full of festive spirit, excited for the parties and socialising, soaking up those finish line vibes. The others are in full burn out mode, dragging themselves to the end of the month with less optimism and more dread about what the next few weeks look like. And while you might fit into the latter, there are actually three very distinct types of burnout that extend beyond a feeling of being tired or too busy. In this episode of The Quicky, we look at the three types of burnout and how to combat them to start afresh in 2024. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!

Incels New Way To Humiliate Women - Chadfishing
You may have heard of Incels before - but do you know what it means? It stands for involuntarily celibate. It's a group of boys and men who group together in online forums to vent their rage and sometimes share the ways they're getting revenge on the women they believe would never date them in the real world.

What Happens If Bruce Lehrmann Loses His Defamation Case
For two weeks Australia has watched on as witnesses have described what they believe went down in Parliament house in 2019. Both Bruce Lehrmann and Brittany Higgins have endured attacks on their credibility and honesty as they have been cross examined over the night they returned to their place of work after a night out drinking. But with the end of the trial nearing, what happens If Bruce Lehrmann loses? Will he face a similar situation to former Australian soldier Ben Roberts Smith who has essentially been named as a war criminal after his defamation trial? The Quicky team takes you through the trial so far and the implications of a case that never got an answer in a criminal court. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!

The Indefinite Detention Saga Explained

The Children Of Thalidomide: An Apology Decades Late
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese recently stood on the floor in federal parliament and apologised to the victims and families of a shocking 1950's and 60's pharmaceutical nightmare. For women who were struggling with morning sickness back then, a drug was being marketed to them as the cure for their nausea. Thalidomide would help ease a rolling tummy but what those mothers didn't know and what the people who manufactured the drug failed to explore, was the impact this drug would have on their unborn children. Today The Quicky team looks into the impacts of thalidomide, and the children who still live with it's devastating consequences today. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!

Since the beginning of human existence, we have had a relationship with the afterlife and those who reportedly inhabit it. We tell stories of those spirits who aren't able to transition into the next life, spending their time tied to this one, haunting the people who remain, but there is an important role that telling ghost stories has on the psyche of humans.

You're Not Ugly, It's Just Your New Phone Camera
The selfie camera has gotten TOO good. But isn't that what we want?

Israel Poised To Take Gaza City: What Does That Mean?
Over the past few days, Israeli troops have moved into the heart of Gaza, surrounding Gaza City and giving those who remain amongst the rubble after almost a month of airstrikes, just a four hour window to leave before they move in. Israel says they are there to annihilate Hamas, the militant terror group who launched the deadly attack on October 7.

He's Not A 'Good Bloke': Stop Defending Domestic Violence Killers
Warning: This episode speaks of violence and suicide. Please take care when listening. Last week 21 year old Lilie James was killed in a Sydney private school, her body found in the bathroom of the school's gym. Her killer is suspected to be 24 year old Paul Thijssen, a man she had dated. This week the former headmaster of St Andrew's Cathedral School, where Lilie was a teacher and was killed, wrote a letter home to parents and students where he called Thijssen a "delight", "a fine student" and even a "role-model". Too often we see and hear things like this said by men about men in their lives who have gone on to do unspeakable things to either their wives and partners, or their own children. In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at the 'Good Bloke Syndrome' and why it's time some men held a mirror up to their own behaviours to understand what is happening to the women of Australia.

Why Didn't Australia Vote Yes For A Ceasefire In Gaza?
On Friday the United Nations general assembly overwhelmingly called for an "immediate, durable and sustainable humanitarian truce" between Israel and Hamas. The motion, drafted by Jordan, had 120 nations voting in favour, 14, including the US and Israel voting no and 45 countries, including Australia, the UK and Canada abstaining from voting at all. Why would our representatives not support a stop to the fighting to allow Gaza to receive medical aid, food and water? In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at why Australia chose to step away, when 120 countries voted in favour of a truce, and why they believe the resolution was incomplete.

Social Media Trend Exposing Cheaters, But Is It Legal?
Facebook groups and pages called 'Sis, Is This Your Man?' have been popping up all over the country. The members of these groups apparently trying to prevent others from wasting their time on, in their opinions, narcissists, cheaters and liars. The groups are also being used by members to discover if their partners are being unfaithful. But what are the legal implications of these groups? Can we really put it down to the sisterhood just looking out for each other, or is there something more sinister going on? And what about the men featured in these posts? Are they ruining their reputations? In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at the fine line between women seeking to protect themselves and defamation. If you'd like to read more, click here .

It's Britney, Bitch: The Memoir and Mystery Of Britney Spears
She was the princess of pop in the 90's and early 00's, before her life took a turn. You've seen the paparazzi photos of her shaving her head and attacking a car with an umbrella, the shots of her driving erratically with her baby on her lap. In the past few years we've seen the #FreeBritney movement, begging for her release from a conservatorship run by her father. And lately, we see videos of her dancing in her home, some people label her unhinged, others say it's a cry for help. Today, Britney's memoir, The Woman In Me, drops worldwide and in this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at the enigma that is Britney Spears and why her story is one so many of us are desperate to know the truth behind the tabloids.

States & Territories Could Succeed Where The National Referendum Failed
Australia's Indigenous leaders have now ended their week of silence following the Voice to Parliament referendum. And while the nation may have failed to pass the constitutional change, the possibility remains for individual states and territories to take the lead. In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at how states and territories are considering their unique approaches to the Voice To Parliament and treaty discussions. This exploration offers a glimpse of the nation's journey forward, following from a decision that has left some of us behind. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!

Is Talking Trash About Menopause Making Our Symptoms Worse?
There is no argument that the symptoms of menopause and perimenopause can be tough, awful, annoying and downright terrible, but should we be letting the world know about the worst of the worst? There are studies to suggest that catastrophising the symptoms of menopause could actually be making our experience with this stage of life worse, and silencing an entire cohort of women who don't experience these extremes at all. The CEO of Jean Hailes talks us through the thought process behind asking us not to dive into the depths of the worst of menopause. For more info on perimenopause...

Are Men Finally Seeing The Mental Load?
You've probably heard about 'The Mental Load', but have you ever wondered what it really is? And how it can impact your relationship? While women recognise it, struggle with it and seemingly constantly trying to get others in their lives to even see it, we wonder if men are starting to feel the grasp of what it's been like for women to exist in this constant state of to-do list. In this episode of The Quicky we talk to Maggie Dent, host of the new podcast The Good Enough Dad , to break down where we're at with the men in our lives when it comes to the invisible labour we find ourselves thinking about, as well as two men who are working hard to change the narrative.

The Four Ways The Palestinian Israeli Conflict Could End
It's now been 12 days since Hamas launched their deadly attack on Israel and the retaliation in Gaza shows no signs of easing. As the civilian toll continues to rise, and the devastating impacts of this terror plot persist, discussions are underway regarding a possible ground offensive and involvement of neighbouring countries. The pressing questions now are: What does this mean for the people in Gaza, where casualties are in the thousands? What about Israelis who have lost at least 1400 of their own? And who else might become involved in this conflict? In this episode of The Quicky, we examine the potential developments as the fight for one of the most bitterly contested regions on Earth persists.

Monogamish: Why Some Say Monogamy Is Killing Marriages
Is the classic 'happily ever after' monogamous setup really the only path to love and commitment? Ever wondered if there's another way to a healthy, happy relationship? Dan Savage introduced us to 'monogamish' decades ago, and he believes it's high time to rethink our romantic standards. But does the thought of sharing your partner with anyone in any way bringing out strong feelings of betrayal? In this episode of The Quicky we explore the world of monogamy versus monogamish. We speak to a relationship expert to see if this is the relationship revolution we need or if we should stick to the status quo. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!

Will There Ever Be Peace For Israel & Palestine?
On the weekend, residents in Israel’s border towns were confronted by Hamas militants who rampaged through towns as they fired thousands of rockets into Israeli territory. What has occurred in the hours and days after the start of this latest escalation has been brutal, shocking and sad, with many innocent women and children caught up in the conflict. But while the war has begun again in earnest in this part of the world, and governments around the globe line up behind their chosen ally, the complexities of this struggle are again in the spotlight and leave many wondering if this was the only and inevitable outcome.

Why The Men Are Mad At Taylor Swift
A few weeks ago Taylor Swift showed up at an NFL game to support her rumoured beau Travis Kelce. It launched a media frenzy with photos of the two of them going viral.

In this episode of The Quicky we take a look at why the men are upset and if there's a lesson in patriarchal influence to be had as two of the biggest names in their field decide to become Romeo and Juliet.

It Survived 2 World Wars & An Ice Age: Sad End For Iconic English Tree
Just over a week ago, news broke that a tree in the north of England had been felled. The famous Sycamore Gap Tree was approximately 300 years old, and stood beside a section of the 1900 year old Hadrian's Wall, which the romans began constructing in 122 AD. But who cut down the famous tree and why? In this episode of The Quicky, we look into this intriguing crime to find out why this tree was so significant, and what might happen to it now.

90's Supermodels Legacy: Body Image Then And Now
When you think 90's supermodel you think of the big four, the OG's..Cindy, Christy, Linda and Naomi. These four women were the first supermodels. They graced the pages of magazines, appeared in music videos...they were everywhere and everything. And as a new documentary takes us behind the scenes and into the world's of these women, we've learnt they started as so many others did, as vulnerable young women at the mercy of a cut throat fashion industry. In this episode of The Quicky, we look at the influence of the original supermodels and whether their brand of body image is any worse or better than those we see on our screens and runways today.

It's Peak Holiday Period And Flights Are Still being Cancelled - Why?
2023 has been a turbulent year for flying. Between hundreds of people being stranded in Vanuatu last week because of technical issues. Qantas allegedly selling tickets for thousands of cancelled flights. And a lot of flight delays. There have been a lot of ongoing problems with flying around – and out of – Australia. And people are paying a lot of money for the privilege, with international airfares up by more than 50% from pre-pandemic levels. With all of this in mind, you might be wondering how travellers are going to fare over the upcoming holiday period, and what you can do to try and ensure cheaper, smoother trips. In this episode of The Quicky, we’re going to look at what has been happening in Australia’s aviation industry this year and what consumers can do to try and navigate the chaos.

The Writers Strike Is Over But What Does That Mean For Your Favourite TV Show?
Nearly five months ago, Hollywood writers went on strike, bringing the TV and movie industry to a standstill. The Writers Guild of America, which represents more than 11,000 screenwriters, led the demands for better pay, staffing minimums and protections against AI on the work of writers. Now, after a tentative deal was reached with entertainment companies over the weekend and accepted on Wednesday, writers are free to return to work this week. This has been one of the longest strikes in the Writer’s Guild’s history – so what has it achieved? What does the deal outline? And what does all of this mean for us as TV and movie watchers for the rest of 2023? Today we’re going to look at the writer’s strikes and what writers managed to negotiate for themselves after months of protesting. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!

Can These Aussie Pollies Save Julian Assange?
Julian Assange has been one of the most divisive and talked-about figures of the past two decades. In 2006, Assange founded Wikileaks and came to international attention in 2010 after publishing a trove of leaked classified US military documents about the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Alongside those documents Wikileaks published shocking footage that rippled around the world of a US airstrike in Baghdad in which an American crew shot down Iraqi civilians, including two staff working for Reuters news. For the publication of this classified information and other allegations, Assange has been a wanted man for many years. Now, a large group of Australian politicians are joining forces to lobby the US government to stop their legal pursuit of Queensland-born Assange. So, why after more than 10 years is this group of MPs stepping in now? And will they succeed in finally bringing Assange home a free man? Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!

She Named Her Baby 'Methamphetamine Rules' To Get The Story
Over the years we've seen some pretty interesting baby names, from Apple to North, even Pilot and Cricket. And then there's Elon Musk's son X Æ A-12 - supposedly pronounced 'Ash'. But this week, Australian journalist Kirsten Drysdale made headlines after naming her newborn boy something seriously controversial: Methamphetamine Rules. Drysdale was testing the limits of Australia’s Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages to see if the name could possibly be approved and to her surprise…it was. In this episode of The Quicky we take a look at the names you can and can't name your new bundle of joy, and just how Methamphetamine Rules slipped past the approvals.

Could NZ's Experience Teach Us About The Voice To Parliament?
Australia is closing in on the referendum that could change the constitution and establish an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice to Parliament. The referendum is going to be held on Saturday October 14th, where Australians will be given the opportunity to vote on enshrining recognition of First Nations people in our constitution. But while the idea of a First Nations body speaking directly to government might be a first for Australia, it’s far from a first for the world. There are a number of other countries who have representative bodies and mechanisms built into their governments, some for a really long time, including in Aotearoa New Zealand. So, how do those systems work? And what lessons can we learn from them? Today, we’re going to take a deep dive into how some countries have built First Nations recognition into their parliaments – and how effective they’ve been.

The Birth Trauma Inquiry: Maternity's Me Too Moment
Last week an inquiry began in NSW, with tearful evidence from a woman named Naomi Bowden, who recalled the treatment she received at Wollongong Hospital after the stillbirth of her baby Bella more than a decade ago. In her written submission, she had described how she felt when police took her baby’s body from her after being forced to identify her newborn, how the baby had been placed on her chest floppy, white and unresponsive despite what had appeared to be a textbook pregnancy, how weeks later at an appointment, staff questioned her about where her baby was, overworked nurses not having the time to read through her notes. This is the first of thousands of submissions to the inquiry regarding a phenomena known as birth trauma, sometimes referred to as obstetric violence or obstetric rape, where women have had experiences during labour that have left them scarred physically, mentally and emotionally. Today, the Quicky team looks at how this inquiry hopes to change things and how the truth telling will not be easy. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!

One Year In: King Charles' Reign & The Royal Family's Future
One year ago, the world woke to the news of Queen Elizabeth's death. In the aftermath, there was speculation about the potential repercussions. Some predicted that this could mark the beginning of the end for the British monarchy. Others said it might serve as a catalyst to establish a republic in Australia and that other Commonwealth countries might also pursue their independence. In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at the past 365 days with King Charles on the throne, whether his reign has had a positive or negative impact on the Royal Family and what the experts think will happen next.

Is Stockholm Syndrome A Misogynist Myth?
50 years ago a woman was taken hostage in a bank and had her life under threat for 6 full days. When she was finally released with her fellow hostages she was acting differently to the way many thought she should. She was angry at police for putting her life in danger during negotiations. This led to a term that remains controversial to this day...Stockholm Syndrome. In this episode of The Quicky, we find out if Stockholm Syndrome actually exists and what happens to someone who finds themselves threatened and at the same time befriending the person who has put them in harms way.

Unused Flight Credits & Billions In Profit, Why It's Expensive To Fly In Australia
This week, outgoing Qantas boss Alan Joyce and Jetstar CEO Steph Tully were questioned by a Senate enquiry about the Australian airline market, skyrocketing airfares, flight cancellations and unused pandemic credits.

Last week we watched on as fires wiped out parts of the Hawaiian island of Maui. For many Aussies, it brought back memories of our own wild fires in the Summer of 2019 and 2020. And just like the situation we found ourselves in back then, there are mixed messages about whether tourists should be visiting and spending their money in a community that desperately needs it, or if they should be staying away to let those communities heal. In this episode of The Quicky, we find out of travel to Hawaii should be suspended or if tourist dollars can go some way to helping a community rebuild after tragedy.

Matilda's Shift Focus To Third Place & The Full Body Scan Being Spruiked By The Kardashians
The Kardashians have been spruiking something. Something that most of us couldn't dream of affording and it has left doctors questioning. Recently Kim Kardashian posted on her Instagram a photo of her in front of a full body scan machine. The same machine was seen in a recent episode of The Kardashians reality show, where mum Kris Jenner, underwent the scan. But what does it do? And how much does it cost? In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at the full body scans, the cost, and whether or not its the way forward for our health. If you want to read more, click here .

50 Years In A Tiny Tank, The Mission To Free A Killer Whale
53 years ago this week, a little orca, just 4 years old, was captured by humans in Puget Sound, off the coast of Washington State and transferred to Miami Seaquarium. For the past 5 decades the orca, known as Tokitae, formally known as her stage name Lolita, has lived in a tiny tank and forced to perform for the public 3 times a day for almost 45 years. She was retired from these shows in March last year after suffering from some health issues. After years of protesters calling for her release, it seems those dreams may be coming true as soon as next year. In this episode of The Quicky we find out how a billionaire, a group of friends and a new owner are working to free one of the oldest captive orcas into open water and how she may still have the chance to reunite with her family.

Serving Into Their 90's: Why Are U.S Politicians So Old?
Joe Biden is 80 years old and for the first time in history, the U.S has an octogenarian President. You'd think that would make him the oldest among his Political colleagues in Washington right? But no. In the past few weeks some of the elder statesmen and women of the capital have been showing their age and have left many wondering, how old is too old to run a country? In this episode of The Quicky, we look at what is known as Gerontocracy, where the older generations control the politics and the power and whether there should be a maximum age limit in Government.

Cooking With Gas Is About To Be A Thing Of The Past
The Victorian government recently began it’s plan to phase out gas in the state’s homes by announcing they were banning any new gas connections to newly built homes starting from January next year. But why have we turned on gas? it used to be sold to us as the more affordable and more environmentally friendly option to electricity, and does this Victorian move mean the rest of the country is about to follow suit? Today we look at what it will mean for Aussies to try and remove gas from our lives, and what happens in our kitchens and lounge rooms as a result. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback?

Are You Heading Off A Mortgage Cliff? Here's What You Need To Know
This week we heard the Australian housing market continued its growth in July. But while house prices are still going up, they're not going up as fast as they have been, and it could be due to a group of Aussies who have just fully realised the impact of all these rate rises. Experts have raised concerns about the potential effects on property values, housing affordability, and overall financial stability.

What The Heck Did Elon Musk Do To Twitter?
Twitter is dead...no, not literally, the website and app are still alive and well, but it's not called Twitter anymore. And the little blue bird is gone. New owner, millionaire Elon Musk, has rebranded it as X. The response has been varied. Some say it brings the social media platform into line with his other businesses and makes it completely his...others say it's the final nail in the coffin and have found the exit door.

Why You're Going To Get a Tax Shock in 2023
When July 1 comes around, many Australians get a little excited for a boost in their bank accounts in the form of a tax return. But this year is a little different for many of us.

Campaign Barbie: How A Doll In Decline Got A Marketing Makeover
Everywhere you turn right now, it's almost certain that you will see the colour pink. It's in our stores, on our social media pages and our TV's, all in celebration for a doll, well actually a movie about a doll, that for years we were told was doing young women a disservice. In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at the powerhouse that is the marketing campaign of the Barbie movie. How they took a toy that had seen a decline in sales and relaunched it to become a best seller. And whether confronting your products faults can go anyway to absolving them of their past mistakes.

El Niño Is Back: Here’s What To Expect
Last Monday the global temperature reached 17.01 degrees celsius, breaking a record. Then, the very next day, it broke a record again reaching 17.18 degrees celsius. Now those numbers might seem surprising given how high the mercury reaches here in Australia during the summer months, but for climate scientists, it's a milestone that many hoped we wouldn't reach so soon. Right before the records fell, the UN also confirmed that El Niño is back, set to bring drought and scorching temperatures.

What Heather Anderson’s Deadly Brain Disease Diagnosis Means For Women’s Sport

What Are The Chances We WON'T See Another Rate Rise This Month
The Reserve Bank of Australia will meet tomorrow to decide if inflation has started to come down enough to not call for another rate rise or at least leave them on hold for this month. But while we were delivered seemingly good news about inflation recently, the numbers aren’t exactly what they seem and that will play a big factor in whether home and business owners will be expected to fork out even more when it comes to mortgage payment time. Today we’re speaking to economist Richard Holden about the chances of yet another rate rise. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!

Earlier this week the legislation that will allow Australians to vote on the Indigenous Voice to Parliament was passed, ending months of debate. All we need now is Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to set a date for Aussies to head to the polls and vote. In the past few months we've heard arguments from both the 'yes' and 'no' camps. And amongst those, we've heard all kinds of conspiracies about just what The Voice will have the power to do.

Only One Thing Can Stop Trump From Being President Again
It seems like every month brings a new court case against Donald Trump. Right now, he's facing 34 criminal charges in Manhattan including falsifying business records and 37 charges in a Miami court for taking classified documents from the White House. So far only the civil case against him has given any results, and that holds no criminal weight allowing Trump to walk free despite a court finding him guilty of sexually assaulting E Jean Carrol in a change room in the 90's. So the question still remains, what court action can stop him from becoming President once again? In this episode of The Quicky we find out there's only one thing stopping Trump from taking office and it's nothing that can be influenced by a judge or a jury.

Is It Ever Okay To 'Track' Your Partner?
Do you track your significant others? For more than a decade now, we've had access to GPS technology that only seemed to exist in movies, but in 2023 it's easy to track someone's phone with or without their knowledge and permission. We can even throw a device into someone's pocket, wallet or car to keep tabs on someone's location. For some it feels a bit creepy, for others it strays into coercive control, and for some it's peace of mind. In this episode of The Quicky, we look at the ins and outs of tracking our significant others, is it healthy or harmful? Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!

Ben Roberts-Smith Found To Be A War Criminal. What Happens Now?
Last week justice Anthony Besanko found in favour of three newspapers when he decided that claims they made about former SAS soldier Ben Roberts-Smith being a war criminal, were mostly true. So now that a judge in a civil trial has found that to be true, could this lead to a criminal conviction too? Today we look at the case that has brought the Victoria Cross medal winner undone and what that means for him and others in the SAS who have been accused of the same.

What 'Money Influencers' Know That We Don't
The cost of living crisis is really biting hard as we hit the 6 month mark of 2023. Grocery prices, rents, interest rates, fuel prices...everything is going up and up and up. For many Aussies, even those who are employed and earning a wage that, until recently, was able to cover their basic living costs, the current economic climate is stretching their budgets incredibly thin. So amongst the doom and gloom from economists and financial experts, can anyone put a positive spin on the cost of living crisis? In this episode of The Quicky we speak to money influencers to find out what they know that we don't about making the most of our money in 2023. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback?

Kochie, McGowan & The Big He-Quit: Are Men Admitting They Can't Have It All
In a noticeable trend of 2023, yet another man in a high-profile job has made the decision to step away. From football coaches to television hosts, politicians, and players, these men are choosing to step away over the relentless pursuit of professional success at the expense of their personal lives. Have men realised that they too can't have it all? In this episode of The Quicky, we look at the challenges facing Aussie men in 2023 as traditional gender roles continue to shift and evolve and the significance of these high-profile resignations and how they may pave the way for more men to seek a balance between their work and personal lives.

Remote or Return? The Work Debate of 2023
While many Aussies have grown accustomed to the comfort and convenience of working from home during the COVID-19 pandemic, some employers are now urging, or even demanding, their staff to return to the office. In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at the debate between returning to the office and embracing remote work. We look at why employers want us back at our desks, is it all about making sure that expensive real estate doesn't go to waste, or is there a real argument to getting us back amongst our colleagues?

Winter Viral Trio: Navigating COVID and its Companions
Do you remember when we all queued up to roll up our sleeves to receive the COVID-19 vaccination? We made a commitment to getting the shot, not just to protect ourselves from the impacts of the virus, but also to safeguard our family, friends and strangers around us. Recently, however, our motivation to get vaccinated has definitely waned. As a result, we are now confronting not only a fifth wave of COVID-19, but also its companions...two other viruses. In this episode of The Quicky we explore what challenges await us this winter and why we need to address the presence of three viruses during the colder months.

Consequences In The Wake Of A 95 Year Old's Taser Death
During the week a 95 year old woman, suffering with dementia, was tasered by police in her nursing home. The whole country was shocked. Now there are questions. Questions about what's going to happen go the officer involved. Questions surrounding the conduct of police. Questions about what happens now that a family had to say goodbye to their beloved gran. In this episode of The Quicky, we speak to a former magistrate about whether he's seen anything like this in his career and what we should learn about how Australia treats its ageing population and how police should be accountable for their actions.

Stan Grant says he always dreamed of being a journalist. And last week he walked away from his dream after facing a systemic racism and vitriol thrown at him. It's not a new thing.

What Are "Nangs" And How Deadly Are They?
Nitrous Oxide, commonly known by various names such as laughing gas, cream whips, hippy crack, nos, whippits, or nangs, is a gas that induces a short-lasting euphoric high lasting around 30 seconds. Due to its accessibility, it has gained massive popularity as a recreational drug among Aussie teens. And while there are a growing number of Australians using the gas, some are discovering that it can result in severe consequences. Teenager Molly Day is now facing the harsh reality that she may never walk again after developing an addiction to this substance. In this episode of The Quicky, we delve into the realm of Nitrous Oxide to explore whether this readily available drug truly provides the safe and enjoyable high that many individuals perceive it to be.

It’s 2023 & We've Just Approved A New Coal Mine
The new Labor Government promised to reduce emissions by 43% by 2030...but last week, Australia's Environmental Minister Tanya Plibersek, green lit a new coal mine in central Queensland, the first to be approved under the new government. Considering our awareness of the detrimental impacts of coal and its contribution to global warming, it raises the question of why, in 2023, we are still granting approval for new coal mines? In this episode of The Quicky, we find out what went down in Isaac River and why the environment minister said yes, when the majority of Aussies said no. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback?

Can One Guilty Verdict Change Toxic Mine Site Culture?
We already know that being sexually abused and harassed by your colleagues is against the law. But as we've been finding out in recent years, there are some industries where these behaviours are left unchecked. This week, one of the court cases linked to sexual assaults in Australia's mine sites ended with a guilty verdict.

Taylor Swift is one of a string of celebrities who we can't seem to allow to just be single. Jennifer Anniston, Emma Watson, Mindy Kaling, just to name a few. We are constantly monitoring these ladies to see if they have finally paired off in a way that suits us.

Why Is TikTok Telling Women To Stop Taking The Pill?
Have you heard of 'Birth Control Tik Tok?' It's the side of TikTok showing influencers promoting "natural" birth control and encouraging women to stop taking hormonal contraceptives. There's varying degrees of scientific accuracy in their claims - and theories that they are playing into the global shift towards right wing politics that is starting to limit women's control over their own bodies. In this episode of The Quicky, we look into why some people are demonising the pill and if hormonal contraception is really the enemy. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!
