Vanessa Amorosi, Emma Watson & The Problem When Kids Earn More Than Their Parents

Australian singer Vanessa Amorosi has spoken about the very messy feud with her mum and the financial fallout that destroyed their relationship. But does it reveal more about the bizarre dynamics of child stars and their families?

Also, Jessie has a question: if you’re going through something in your personal life, should you tell your workplace about it? How much do you REALLY want your boss to know? We have thoughts.

Plus, it's 'Sit at the Bar September' and Amelia has a theory about why sitting and making eye contact with strangers IRL sound so unappealing to young people.
