To subscribe head to mamamia.com.au/mplus The most infamous battle in Australian magazine history happened against the backdrop of an imploding royal marriage and an obsession with a tortured princess. And the most infamous editor in weekly magazines, Nene King, had exactly the killer instinct to capitalise on it. Welcome to the Diana Wars, when two esteemed editors went head to head in a circulation battle for the eyes and attention of millions of Australian women - whatever the cost. In episode two of Extraordinary Stories: Magazine Queens, Nene King, Angela Mollard and Louisa Hatfield talk to Emma Gillespie about an era of tabloid excess, and how it all came crashing down after a midnight high-speed chase through a Parisian tunnel.

Outlouders, we're dropping into your feed to share something special with you. Last year we launched a new podcast called Extraordinary Stories, exclusive to MPlus subscribers. It's a show that explores the fascinating lives of incredible women with incredible stories, and we kicked things off with a five-part season called Magazine Queens. Over the next five days, you'll be transported into the glamorous and scandalous world of Aussie mags, and the women who made them, from the 70s through to the noughties. Enjoy! ---- In a chaotic Sydney share-house in the Spring of 1972, a disheveled actor was lying naked on the fraying couch of an inner-city living room. The woman who had paid Jack Thompson $400 was wondering if the actor’s left hand was really big enough to cover his modesty and get her history-making magazine past the conservative censors who’d decide if it would make it to newsagent shelves. The Editor? Ita Buttrose. The magazine? Cleo. On this first episode of Extraordinary Stories: Magazine Queens, Australian icon Ita Buttrose, historian Bridgette Griffin-Foley and others who lived through it take us back to the birth of a sensation: Australia’s Cleo Magazine.

It’s the first day of 2022 and that means it's time for our Word Of The Year episode! New Year's resolutions are notorious for falling over, so instead, every year we choose a word to set an intention for the year ahead of us. There's no pass or fail, word of the year is about creating a focus or filter for the months, decisions and moments to come. Holly, Jessie and Mia look back at their words from last year before taking us through the new word to shape the mood of the 365 days to come.
