IN CONVERSATION: Julia Gillard

HI HOW ARE YOU OK ENOUGH CHIT CHAT BECAUSE... Today on the show, we bring you the woman who needs no introduction - but we will attempt to give her one that does her justice - Julia Gillard. Julia was, of course, the first female Prime Minister of Australia, who is now the Chair of Beyond Blue, one of Australia’s leading mental health awareness bodies. Julia is also an avid advocate for addressing women’s under-representation in leadership, which was the motivation behind the book she just co-authored with Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, ‘Women and Leadership’. In this chat, Julia touches on the frustration that accompanies being a woman in politics, the moment she found out Hillary Clinton lost to Donald Trump, as well as her absolutely iconic misogyny speech. If you’d like to hear more from Julia, please do check out her newest book that she co-wrote with Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, ‘Women and Leadership’. Order it here! You can also order Julia’s memoir, ‘My Story’, here. For those In Conversation episodes we mentioned at the end of today’s episode, click here for Dylan Alcott and here for Marlee Silva.

Celebrity divorce and the great Instagram lie

Celebrity divorce and the great Instagram lie

Well, it’s been a big week in the world of celebrity divorce after Jenna Dewan and Channing Tatum announced their “loving” split to the cries of love being dead. So why is it we feel so viscerally about break-ups like this? Is it because we feel we’ve being sold a lie about what a relationship and a break up looks like? Plus, a radio host’s orgasm story that was a little bit too much to stomach and the atrocity that is Meghan Markle daring to have a grey hair. Zara recommended two pieces from Man Repeller this week, one on love and the beauty of its dullness which you can find here, and another on the concept of a friendship complex which you can find here. If you’re also willing to give Marie Claire a click for that atrocious grey hair article, you can right here. (But don’t tell them we sent you.) And if you haven’t read it, or it’s been a while, check out the history-making Vanity Fair profile of Meghan Markle here. You're so welcome to join the conversation in our Facebook group!

Georgia Love is tearing the whole thing down

Georgia Love is tearing the whole thing down

HELLO! This week we're doing things a little differently - we're interviewing Georgia Love! The journalist and former Bachelorette issued a blistering tweet to a women's tabloid mag this week, so we had a chat with her about it. Also, we need to get to the bottom of why a celebrity BIT BEYONCE ON THE FACE and whether or not it's creepy for Scott Disick to be dating a teenager.

Oops! Britney did it again. And again

Oops! Britney did it again. And again

HOLA! Welcome back. Bachelor in Paradise started this week, so naturally, we took it upon ourselves to debrief all about the show's premiere. Michelle thinks Davey and Flo will be the first to have sex, Zara thinks she's wrong and mostly, we talk a whole lot of crap about a show that's just a whole lot of crap. Loveable crap, that is. We also deep-dive the return of Britney Spears - considering she randomly re-surfaced in our news cycle TWICE this week - and discuss the media's troubling response to a story about Robin Williams and his larrikin antics on the set of Mork & Mindy. Can we call it sexual harassment when it's not, by definition, sexual harassment? Feel free to come and join the conversation in our Facebook group!

Katy Perry kissed a boy and we didn't like it

Katy Perry kissed a boy and we didn't like it

Oh hey there! This week, we just needed to debrief about the kiss that landed Katy Perry in some rather hot water, the WAGs who build their careers off the back of heartbreak, and the incredible resurgence of Jennifer Garner. Speaking of Jen Garner, let us know what you think her quotes meant in this Vanity Fair profile: https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2016/02/jennifer-garner-talks-kids-career-ben-affleck You're so welcome to join the conversation in our Facebook group!

Fashion week is real life Instagram

Fashion week is real life Instagram

Ever wondered if Fashion Week is just a big wank fest? Michelle and Zara went down to VAMFF this week to check it all out, and Mich walked away with a few key concerns about the festival. Plus, we deep-dive the months-long saga involving Ryan Seacrest and try to make sense of sexual misconduct allegations that are made public before they're proven. Oh, and do we have any right to know about Bella Hadid’s face? It feels like now more than ever plastic surgery is prevalent among our youngest and brightest stars. So what the hell do we make of it all? If you're interested in a comprehensive explainer on Ryan Seacrest, Variety have done some great reporting on the issue: http://variety.com/2018/tv/news/ryan-seacrest-sexual-abuse-allegations-stylist-details-1202710460/ You're so welcome to join the conversation in our Facebook group!
