IN CONVERSATION: Natalie Fornasier
Today, we are joined by a person who has influenced Zara and I more than any “Instagram influencer” or “YouTube vlogger” ever has. Her name is Natalie Fornasier, and she has 839 Instagram followers. Your eyebrows might be raised right now, and you might be wondering how a normal Sydney girl with a normal social media following could be so influential. Well, last year, Natalie sat down with Byrdie.com.au for a story titled “I’m 24 and Living With Advanced Melanoma—This Is My Story”. Natalie’s words and insights in that interview were what informed our very last segment of Shameless in 2018, and what pushed Zara to change her own relationship with sun tanning forever. Today, we sit down with Natalie, who is now 25, but still grappling with her stage four cancer diagnosis. We talk about friends, finding love, and what you can do to spread the word. We have chosen to forgo an episode sponsor today, and have dedicated the episode to Call Time On Melanoma. To support Call Time On Melanoma, visit www.calltimeonmelanoma.com.au, or follow them on Instagram @calltimeonmelanoma. This episode was produced by Michelle Andrews.

The Influencer Olympics
It's Monday! And it's a public holiday too! Happy Easter lovely people. On today's show: the Queen of PR might be getting her own reality TV show. Plus, we get into the nitty gritty of the Influencer Olympics, otherwise known as Coachella, and the machinations of why Lara Bingle was slut-shamed out of the country.

IN CONVERSATION: Rowi Singh
Happy In Conversation Thursday lovely people! On today's show, we are joined with Rowi Singh. It’s hard to condense what and who Rowi is in a quick soundbite, but we will give it a shot. Rowi is an influencer, yes, but she’s not your average influencer. She might have more than a hundred thousand followers on Instagram, but she’s not about detox teas and teeth whitener. Instead, Rowi’s brand is her creativity. She’s a wildly talented makeup artist, who bluntly refuses to colour inside any of the lines. She’s also a proud Punjabi woman who is ready to call time on cultural appropriation, who is never afraid to embrace colour, and is unapologetic in both her feminism and her femininity. This chat is political and candid and vivacious - just like the woman you see on Instagram and YouTube. We hope you enjoy!

Alex, Richie, and reading between the lines
Happy Monday Shameless community! Coming up on today’s episode - the scam that’s sweeping across Instagram. Plus, the Bachelor In Paradise conversation that the country is talking about… without actually talking about it at all, and the influencer and alcohol debate that has us just a little confused. Want to follow us on Insta? Find us @shamelesspodcast. Only if you want to, though. No pressure. Kinda. Not desperate at all, promise. This episode of Shameless is brought to you by Thankyou - tackling global poverty together.

IN CONVERSATION: DJ Tigerlily
Haaaaappy Thursday friends! Wow, do we have a treat for you today. If you’ve ever been to a nightclub, or a music festival, the chances are you know the name, but perhaps you don’t know the story behind one of our country’s most successful musical exports. In this chat, we explore who DJ Tigerlily is - yes - but we also get to know Dara Hayes, the woman behind the elaborate wigs and costumes. You’ll find that Dara, the 27-year-old who lives with her boyfriend and their one-year-old Groodle, is enigmatic; a refreshing blend of passion, charm, and honesty.

Baby, baby, baby, no
Hey hey it's MONDAY! On today's show: Kourtney Kardashian has a new venture, and absolutely no one is convinced by it.

Michelle recommends How Nora McInerny Gets It Done on The Cut On Tuesdays and Zara recommends The Agony of being Theresa May by The Daily.

IN CONVERSATION: Effie Kats
Today we are joined by the force of nature that is Effie Kats. For those unfamiliar, Effie is a design powerhouse. She’s the brains behind her self-titled bespoke suiting brand, as well as Bayse Brand for perfectly cut basics and Dead End Lovers, the home of gorgeous jewellery. But the road to here wasn’t an easy one. At 23, she created cult brand Zachary The Label. Four years later, she lost everything.
