There's Only One Word for 2016

Heard the word Momo a lot this week but not sure what it is? Jessie’s here to explain. It's the internet challenge that seems to be scaring children and parents so much that Kim Kardashian had to intervene. But is Momo actually real? Or is it the modern day equivalent of the monster under the bed? Plus, why are women rubbing period blood on their faces? And no, it’s not for a beauty challenge. And what you need to know about the Michael Jackson Leaving Neverland documentary that is airing here on Friday. Mia’s away this week so Rachel Corbett joins Holly and Jessie to discuss...

Just a warning, this episode of Mamamia Out Loud will be speaking about the George Pell case which may be distressing. For 24-hour support, please call 1800 RESPECT. On Tuesday, after three months under a suppression order, the world learned that Cardinal George Pell was guilty of five counts of child sexual abuse. What has happened next is quite surprising. Former Prime Ministers Tony Abbott and John Howard came out in support of Pell. So why are they defending a convicted paedophile? Plus, Mia Freedman weighs in on the Khloe Kardashian / Tristan Thompson / Jordyn Woods cheating saga, with a bit of help from Jessie. And we introduce a new segment with a terrifying intro. All this and more on the latest episode of Mamamia Out Loud...

If you listened to the show last week, you would’ve heard Holly and Jessie saying they were off to see controversial Canadian psychologist and best-selling author, Jordan Peterson live. Well, that happened and Holly may or may not have been converted to Jordan’s way of life. Plus, we’ve all heard of work wives, but what about work mums? A work mum is the person at work who you go to for life advice. Jessie thinks it’s problematic but Mia thinks it’s flattering. And of course, we’ve got an Oscars recap because it wouldn’t be Mamamia Out Loud without one... END BITS Hosts: Mia Freedman, Jessie Stephens and Holly Wainwright.

In case you missed it, Lady Gaga got a new tattoo this week that pays homage to A Star Is Born. It’s a rose on her back with the La Vie En Rose lyrics but it seems the tattoo and her very public friendship with Bradley Cooper is part of a $20 million Oscars campaign. And Mia Freedman is calling bullshit. Plus, wondering why people are now practicing micro-dosing with illegal drugs? Jessie Stephens speaks to Dr. Brad McKay about why more and more professionals are choosing to take small amounts of LSD at work. And remember the ISIS Brides? Holly wants to know whether or not they should be allowed to come home. All this and more on the latest episode of Mamamia Out Loud.

Are you a woman? Apparently, it's your fault Meghan Markle is being hounded by the media. That’s according to The Times columnist Carol Midgley, but Mia Freedman strongly disagrees. So is our desire for gossip and pictures deadly, or just a bit of fun? Karl Lagerfeld, the Creative Director of Chanel, died at the age of 85 earlier this week. And while everyone is talking about his contribution to fashion, Jessie thinks there’s something else that he got right - and it's about relationships. And why do scammers find it so easy to manipulate women? The answer is really bloody sad. END BITS Hosts: Mia Freedman, Jessie Stephens and Holly Wainwright.

Have you heard? We've got a new podcast here at Mamamia. It's a daily show called The Quicky. And we want to introduce it to you... The Quicky is the easiest and most enjoyable way to get across the news every day. And it’s delivered straight to your ears in a daily podcast so you can listen whenever you want, wherever you are...at the gym, on the train, in the playground or at night while you're making dinner. In this episode of The Quicky, we unravel the story of missing Dubai Princess, Latifa bint Mohammed al-Maktoum. In March 2018 Princess Latifa, the 33 year old daughter of Dubai’s ruler Sheikh Mohammed, attempted to escape her oppressive life after years of torture, imprisonment, and lack of basic human rights. Unfortunately Latifah’s escape didn’t go to plan and she was recaptured on a yacht off the coast of India. She hasn’t been seen publicly since. We speak with the CEO of Detained In Dubai, Radha Stirling, who helped Latifa with her escape attempt and is continuing to raise awareness about the case. As you will hear, Latifa’s life is far from a fairytale and life behind the palace walls is anything but safe.

Did you wear make up to school? A girl’s school in Victoria has made headlines after students were made to remove eyelash extensions before their school photos. And a question we couldn’t help but ask this week: Why on earth are we still weighing people on television? Yvie Jones’ protest at a weigh in on I’m a Celebrity has gone viral for all the right reasons. Plus, a picture of a penis and what The Washington Post, President Donald Trump and Saudi Arabia have to do with it. END BITS Read Holly Wainwright's article about Ben Barba here.
