When You Want To Be ‘Unmarried’ But Not Divorced

Did you know that this time of year is when couples therapists are booked out? Can't think why...

But it's for this reason that we have today's little treat — an episode which Mia Freedman wanted to share with you all from No Filter.

David Finch is a lot of things: he’s an Autism and Neurodiversity consultant, the author of The Journal of Best Practices; A Memoir of Marriage, Asperger Syndrome, and One Man’s Quest to Be a Better Husband, an essayist for the New York Times Modern Love column…and he’s also UNmarried.

In this two-part special episode of No Filter, David Finch opens up to Mia about his life before and after his Asperger’s syndrome diagnosis, his quest to be the best husband and father he could be — and how he ended up UNmarried (and what that even means).

You can hear the second half of Mia's conversation with David here.

Sam Armytage: The Swimsuit Edition

Sam Armytage: The Swimsuit Edition

Tony Abbott cocked up this knighthood all on his own, so why is his chief of staff Peta Credlin getting all the heat? Sam Armytage poses in a swimsuit and we ask: was it empowering, predictable, or insulting? In defence of oversized, beige coloured undies. And why Australia needs a judge to rule against parents who name their babies after breakfast spreads.  Show notes: Why is Peta Credlin's job on the line? The Sam Armytage cover that has everyone talking  The woman that has stopped wearing leggings because they 'entice' men. And poor baby Nutella, who shall no longer be named after a delicious hazelnut spread. Mia loves the Startup Podcast. Jamila mentioned the book Freakonomics: the baby name information is here.  You can email the show at podcast@mamamia.com.au and ask us anything. Is there someone out there who has named their baby Colin? Shane? Or Ian? Get in touch. The facebook page is here And subscribe won't you. That way the episodes are as fresh as a brand new pack of big beige undies. Become a Mamamia subscriber: https://www.mamamia.com.au/subscribeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Obsessions, confessions, and hard questions

Should the Martin Place hostages get paid? Why don't we care as much about the Bali 9 as we did about Schapelle? It's the return of Mamamia Out Loud for 2015 and with awards season unfolding we're rolled out the red carpet on topics big and small. Jen Aniston holds a masterclass in how to deal with your ex, one woman has gone to drastic lengths to get out of a date, and not everyone is happy about the Taylor Swift campaign for the Hottest 100. Finally; we ask the question that's divided the office: can you wee in front of your friends? Show notes: Rebecca Sparrow on why the hostages should get paid Lawyer and Vice-Chancellor of Australian Catholic University, Prof Greg Crafter on the Bali 9 and showing mercy Mia's book recommendation: Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty Jamila's book recommendation: The Rosie Effect by Graeme Simsion We ran out of time to mention Julie Bishops lost earring.
