Men in locker rooms and women who drink.
After Donald Trump dismissed sexist comments as 'locker room' banter, we asked some male athletes what they actually talk about in locker rooms. How could a joyous pregnancy announcement possible spark a backlash? And do you drink to celebrate, commiserate, for stress reasons, because you're happy, because the kids have gone to bed, or because they haven't yet? Problem drinking has a new face; women. But are our support services keeping up? And all hail Turia Pitt. She's a miracle. Show Notes Your host and producer is Monique Bowley with Mia Freedman and Kate de Brito.Thanks to Brad Newley from the Sydney Kings and Sam Carter from the ACT Brumbies.

Kim Kardashian, Australian Story, & Strangers on a Bench
The terrible, no good response to Kim Kardashian's Paris hold up. What does it say about our approach to women who don't play by the rules? Australian Story this week was an ethical dilemma; should a couple with Down Syndrome get to have a baby? Just when we got used to side boob, side vag has appeared to give us all a stress rash, and would you sit on a park bench and talk to strangers? Also, why are car ads still so sexist? We have the perfect mask for scaring the crap out of everyone this Halloween and Holly has a Netflix pick that you can add to your watch list.

A Man Came Into The Studio
It's fine, he's a feminist, we checked. This week Mia is wearing her Hillary T-shirt, and glowing, so we unpack the top moments from the US presidential debate. At home, there was a small, but important shift in the way we view red carpets. Is fit-shaming the new fat-shaming? Shane Warne: loveable larrakin or creepy uncle? Is it a bit wrong that Pauline Hanson's face is on a dog poo bag? Are you an introvert or just an arsehole? And if you're washing your hair with shampoo then conditioner you're doing it wrong. Show notes: KdB is on leave reading all the books you suggested. Thanks to Jessie Stephens for warming the chair and for Luca Lavigne for allowing an interrogation. Mia recommends Season 3 of Transparent on Stan And the podcast Keepin it 1600.

At least we still have The Clooneys

Hillary's sick, and so is the plebiscite.
Pass the tissues, and put your hand over your mouth. Hillary Clinton has pneumonia. What does this mean for the woman who could be president? We've had a gutful of this same-sex marriage plebiscite but if we're going to spend $185 million on asking Australians what they think, should we throw a few other questions in too? The no-pants fashion moment that we can't stop looking at, why the Cleo Bachelor of the Year sparked another big idea from Mia. Plus Ask Bossy has advice for an impossible mother in law.

Lamb. Lena. And Spray Tans During Labour
The new Lamb ad is a big meaty display of diversity but there's one thing we noticed. Lena Dunham forced to apologise for racism; is outrage culture out of control? The best part of the AFL women's game had nothing to do with what happened on the field. Should taxpayers stop funding IVF in women who are trying to have babies much later in life? Can we please talk about Kyly Clarke's Baby Baptism? Can someone call Sarah Koenig to make the Tromp family mystery into season three of Serial? And advice for when you want a spray tan before you go into labour.

Wedding Regrets, #Nomakeup Celebs and Headphone Etiquette
Is having your father walk you down the aisle outdated? Why do we call makeup-free celebs "brave"? A dating expert has written a guide on how men can interrupt women with headphones in order to crack onto them. What's going on with the same-sex marriage plebiscite? And Ask Bossy has advice for a racist. Plus, remember when Book Week was all about the books? HA. HAHAHAHAHA. No, seriously.

Leaks, loose lips and reclaiming a four-letter word.
This week, the furniture is shifting on Mamamia Out Loud. It could be the very heated debate that flares around Mia's opinion on nude selfies. It could be the warmth rising from the red faces about the celebrity names we've been saying incorrectly all these years. It could be the fury around the Salim Mehajer video that the nation is obsessed with this week. Or it could be a wave of relief at us finally finding a parenting book that validates our laziness. As ever, it's three women talking about absolutely everything. And a warning, this week's episode does deal with adult themes. Show notes Mamamia Out Loud is hosted and produced by Monique Bowley with Mia Freedman and Kate De BritoThis week, Monique is away and the show is hosted by Holly Wainwright and edited by Elissa Ratliff.
