Why Are We Weighing People On National TV?
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.

Well, That Was Embarrassing
Bradley Cooper admitted to Oprah this week that he was embarrassed that he hadn’t been nominated for Best Director by the Oscars. Which got us thinking, when it comes to things like failure, is embarrassment the feeling we are most afraid of? Last week, recently elected 29-year-old US politician Alexandria Ocarsio-Cortez posted a five-page Instagram story on her skin routine. An 'old school' female politician would NEVER have done this for fear of being seen as shallow and too 'female'. So have we turned a corner in time? And Mia has realised that everyone has news blindness. Her’s is sport - so what’s yours? Recommendations Mia: Leigh Campbell on No Filter https://omny.fm/shows/no-filter/what-leigh-campbell-s-instagram-won-t-tell-you Holly: Under The Skin with Candace Owen https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/058-populist-revolution-will-it-go-left-or-right-candace/id1212064750?i=1000425832143&mt=2 Jessie: The Munk Debate on the Jordan B Petersen podcast https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/52-munk-debate-political-correctness/id1184022695?i=1000413449527&mt=2 END BITS Hosts: Mia Freedman, Jessie Stephens and Holly Wainwright.

The Reason Women Are Relaunching
Have you heard of the relaunch? It’s what all the young people are doing on social media after they've come out of a break-up and Jessie is here to explain it to us. Yesterday, the NRL banned Ben Barba for life after CCTV footage of an altercation with his wife was viewed by its Integrity Unit. So does this mean there’s finally a shift in how violent footballers are handled, and is it really cause for celebration? And there’s a new kind of job interview that you might get asked to sit through. And it involves making people cry. END BITS Read Holly Wainwright's article about Ben Barba here.

The Great Relationship Conversation Test
Married At First Sight is back this week, and on Thursday night it got Jessie thinking (you can read her specific thoughts here) about whether there was a right or a wrong way to have a conversation with a partner. Because it seems that in every relationship, there’s a person who wants to moan and a person who wants to offer solutions. So should a conversation have a goal? Plus, Mia feels silly because she missed one of the biggest news stories in Australia right now. So Holly and Jessie are here to explain what is going on with the Darling River and the millions of dead fish floating in it. And the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, one of the most generous employers in America, has just announced that it is cutting paid parental leave from a year to six months, so is a year with a baby really not what a mother needs?

Am I Being Unreasonable?
Is it ever okay for someone to confiscate your phone when you’re a grown-up? It happened to Holly last week and she paid for the privilege. Now, she’s a bit confused. And if you don’t know what a shut down is, but are hoping it’s got something to do with locking Donald Trump away somewhere the sun doesn’t shine, we have an explainer for you. WITH AMELIA LESTER. Plus, recommendations are very surprising this week. Jokes, Holly is recommending a stand up special and Jessie a documentary, but they are still good. We promise.

The Ultimate Female Grooming Dilemma
Is it ever okay to tell a fellow sister that her pubes are sticking out of her swimmers when you don’t know her? It’s a doozy of a group therapy this week Outlouders, and Holly, Jessie and Mia aren’t sure how to respond. The Australian Open Tennis Championship ends on Sunday, and, as always, we’ve all been caring about a sport we don’t generally give a toss about for a few hot weeks. But from where we sit, it seems this year it’s been much less about the tennis, and far more about the bitching, in-fighting and feuding. It’s like a tabloid magazine come to life. So is tennis our new reality TV? And how much do we deserve to know about the final moments of a woman’s life? As the country mourns the murder of 21-year-old Aya Maasarwe do we really need to know how she was killed? END BITS Hosts: Mia Freedman, Jessie Stephens and Holly Wainwright.
