Erin Molan is not your punching bag

HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY Monday to our favourite Shameless people! On the agenda today: The Jenna Dewan and Channing Tatum divorce that was far grittier than their official statement ever let on. Plus, the landmark ruling that could shake up the reality TV industry and a meaty discussion on the merits and shortcomings of marriage. This week, Zara recommends an old episode of Ladies We Need to Talk called Settling for Average, and Mich was SUPPOSED to recommend a banger playlist Triple J's Bridget Hustwaite made for us after our interview with her went live, but got so caught up in the "I'm not Joey" stuff she totally forgot. Sorry. Today's episode was made possible by our sponsor Uber Stay by Le Tan. Find out more about their 10-day lasting tan here. Craving more? You’re only human.

Hellooooo! Happy Thursday, lovely Shameless listeners! Today we’re sitting down with Abbie Chatfield - the 24-year-old runner up on this year’s season of The Bachelor. We wouldn’t hop on a plane to Brisbane for just any Bachelor contestant; but we did for Abbie because we think her time in the public eye has been fascinating. Abbie is considered one of the most controversial Bachelor contestants in history for one, curious reason: Abbie likes talking about sex. In this chat, we talk a lot about shame: why and how the media deploys it against women and the unique power in rejecting it. If you loved this interview, follow Abbie on Instagram @abbiechatfield.
