What Kyle & Jackie O’s $200M Tells Us About Class
Subscribe to Mamamia The largest Australian radio deal of all time has just been announced, locking in another 10 years for Kyle & Jackie O for a huge sum. They certainly weren’t shy about revealing their earnings this time around, but is this transparency refreshing or problematic? Plus, ethical non-monogamy is everywhere. But what is it and is it actually ‘ethical’? We discuss. And, would Clare and Jessie Stephens like us to stop referring to them as “the twins”? Turns out Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are sick of it and would like us all to recognise that they are, in fact, two separate entities.

In Defence Of Whinging Young Women
Subscribe to Mamamia It’s been three weeks since Matthew Perry died, and all of the predictions he made in his memoir have reigned true.
