There's Only One Word for 2016

Well-known cartoonist Michael Leunig’s most recent work shows a young mum glued to her screen as her newborn is cast away on the ground behind her. He’s copped a lot of criticism, but does Leunig have a point when it comes to our relationship with our phones? Plus, boys from a private school were filmed yelling a misogynistic chant on a Melbourne tram this week. What does this tell us about young men? And would the same thing have happened if these boys went to a co-ed school? And a reality TV star has taken a network to court over her ‘psychological wound’, and won. So, who is liable for the so-called “villain edit”? And is this precedent going to change reality television for good?

So, it’s been a very big week in royal world. Even Jessie is interested. So why did the Duke and Duchess of Sussex choose now to give quite such an honest interview on their African tour?

Last week there was a man on The Bachelorette who may have been a new-low in reality TV villains. Yes, we’re talking about Jess Glasgow and the men who stood up to his misogynistic behaviour towards our heroine Angie Kent. This week Mamamia writer and host of the You Beauty podcast Amy Clark wrote a piece titled ‘A stranger sent me an Instagram message about my weight. They were "concerned for my health".’ Amy joins Holly, Mia, and Jessie to talk through the experience, and why people seem to feel like it’s okay to body-shame someone if you say it comes from a place of “concern” for your well-being. You can read Amy’s piece on Mamamia here https://www.mamamia.com.au/i-was-fat-shamed/ Also, does cuddling ruin your sex life. Some researchers say cuddles are the death of more intimate physical touch, while others say the opposite.

Is it okay to take food from the hotel buffet for breakfast, lunch AND dinner? Asking for a friend. Or actually, a listener whose husband thinks she’s a thief. Also. Is Cancel Culture real? Mia read a piece from The New Republic titled The Cancel Culture Con about celebrities coming back from “cancellation” which really riled her up. Because the likes of Taylor Swift, Anziz Ansari and Louis C.K might be back on our screens - or in our ears - but are they really unscathed? Plus, do you love being seen to use your Keep Cup even more than you love using your Keep Cup for the planet? As an avid reusable straw lover, Jessie discusses whether or not her efforts to live a more earth-friendly life are a form of virtue signalling.

Ellen Degeneres has been called out for sitting next to George W Bush at an NFL game. Because, surely, she doesn’t agree with him on all the things? A Perth NightClub owner is infuriating the nation with his assertion that a young woman in his establishment couldn’t possibly have had her drink spiked because… she wasn’t attractive enough. Since we recorded this episode Scott has publicly apologised for his awful words but it begs the question; what did he think it would take for someone to be “worth” sexual assaulting?! Plus it’s been a week since White Ribbon Australia announced the organisation was going into liquidation. Some women around the country aren’t exactly sad about this. So what does it mean, and how should we feel about it?

What’s the social etiquette when it comes to “liking” a post on social media. Is it okay to bring up a post in real life if you don't interact with it digitally? And the enormous loss of Aiia Maasarwi was felt all around the nation. This week, the details of her murder were released after a judge removed the suppression order preventing their distribution. That has raised the question, what purpose do the details serve? And what responsibility do we have to know them? Plus, is it problematic to tell a woman she has a “big personality”? One listener was described as such in a job interview and she has no idea how to feel about it. If any of the discussions from this episode have raised any concerns for you in particular the discussion of the case of Aiia Maasarwi please reach out to 1800 RESPECT or call Lifeline on 13 11 14 RECOMMENDATIONS Claire: Fair Play by Eve Rodksy https://bit.ly/2LNXRXU and Beneath The Surface by Libby Trickett https://bit.ly/2AIw98c Jessie: Bondi Sands Wash Off Instant Tan https://www.bondisands.com.au/wash-off-light Holly: Free Solo documentary about rock climber Alex Honnold https://apple.co/2Ot3TP5 This episode of Mamamia Out Loud is brought to you by Shebah MMOL TOUR DATES Orange - Orange Civic Theatre Wednesday 16th October Geelong - GPAC Wednesday 30th October Sydney - Seymour Centre Friday 1st November A Night With Mia Freedman tickets available now at https://www.mamamia.com.au/events/ Subscribe to Mamamia Out Loud here: https://omny.fm/shows/mamamia-out-loud/playlists/podcast END BITS Hosts: Claire Murphy, Holly Wainwright and Jessie Stephens Producer: Elise Cooper COME TALK TO US Join the Out Louders Facebook group GET IN TOUCH Call the PodPhone on 02 8999 9386.
