• A 'Furious' King & The Rise Of The Barbie Waist

  Prince Andrew - the royal problem that just won't go away - has done just that, by giving up his royal titles. So, Amelia Lester and Claire Murphy join our royal correspondent Holly Wainwright to try understand - why now? Plus, does high fashion actually hate women? From a dress that looks more like a cocoon, to an ensemble that includes a mask covering Kim Kardashian's entire face and a corset so tight your body actually spills out of it, it begs the question, who exactly is buying it? And, in Gwyneth-adjacent news, a new Netflix series is letting famous people have the last word from beyond the grave. So if you could have the last word, what would you say?

• The Friends Vs Family Trap & We're All Rapunzel Now

  Ever heard of 'Chatfishing’? Believe us, it's a thing, people, and may make you look at every message you receive in a whole new light. The trend is now to use ChatGPT for banter on dating apps and it’s leading to some awkward in-person dates. The bus tour you did through Europe in your twenties has now been replaced with sunrise yoga and morning run clubs. We discuss why Gen Z is too sensible for that kind of wild fun with a bunch of strangers. Do you treat your friends like family? And should you? There are pros and cons which we unpack. Plus, the 'cunty bob' is out, and long hair is officially back in as we enter the Rapunzel age. But is long hair now a flex or an act of personal rebellion? And all our best reccos including a must-listen podcast, a book Em wants you to read and a go-to 80’s beauty product that's back.Support independent women's media Jessie thinks you should try the Matifying Primer by Laura Mercier OR the Glowy Primer by Go ToHolly wants you to listen to This is Why We Fight and The GiftEm wants you to read Very Impressive for your Age by Eleanor KirkWhat To Listen To Next: Listen to our latest episode: What Did You Do Yesterday?

• "A Comedian Hurt My Feelings"

  While there's an overwhelming sense of hope from the Middle East peace deal this week, we have some very complicated feelings about Donald Trump, so today, Jessie and Holly unpack them with Amelia and ask, "Can two things be true?" A comedian really hurt Amelia’s feelings at a live show recently and we’re asking when it’s okay to take the piss out of people? Plus - a vape, a donated kidney and a friend breakup. Selena Gomez posted a behind the scenes video of her wedding and the internet has A LOT to say about it. And, the bush is back. Or is it? Kim Kardashian has released some new hairy undies and we have questions about the bush renaissance.

• The Victoria Beckham Documentary Is Hard To Watch

  Victoria Beckham’s new docu-series has landed, and while it teases bombshells, it mostly confirms what we thought we already knew. Amelia, Jessie and Holly dive into the nostalgia, the PR spin, and what we really learnt that made watching so uncomfortable.. Also, Princess Kate Middleton has published an essay underlining our worst fears, that mobile phones are bad for us. But this isn't exactly new information, so why has it ruffled our feathers so much? Plus, comedian Julia Morris is calling for women-only seating on flights. Is it about safety, comfort—or something bigger? We open up the debate. And in the ‘things we didn’t expect to care about’ category: why not making your bed might actually be good for you, Jessie learns dust mites are not, in fact, akin to butterflies plus, the pelvic floor tip that’s weirdly simple—and weirdly effective. If this conversation has brought up anything for you, please reach out to The Butterfly Foundation for support.

• The New High Status Boyfriend

  There's a new celebrity boyfriend doing the rounds and everyone from Jennifer Aniston to Princess Martha Louise of Norway (a royal rebel if ever there was one) are here to confirm that the spiritual-softboi era is officially here. Holly has a precise theory as to why. And Jessie poses a provocative question to both Holly and Mamamia's Editor, Stacey Hicks: is anti-natalism (aka choosing not to have kids for ethical reasons) gaining traction for a reason? Plus, we've had 'job hopping' and 'quiet quitting' but it's 'job hugging' that's the latest workplace trend — and no, it's not as cosy as it sounds. There are pros, there are cons and someone's missing out bigtime. Stacey explains. And in recommendations: A criminally underrated TV show that's perfect for weekend viewing A podcast that’s anything but average And a cult-fave hair product Jessie didn’t want to love... but does. Support independent women's media Recommendations Stacey recommends Shrinking on Apple TV Jessie recommends Bedroom Hair texture spray by Kevin Murphy Holly recommends Dr Stacey Sims on the MID podcast.

These are 2025's most in-demand jobs that have the highest salary. You've probably heard the new term "quiet quitting". It's bullsh*t. Why everyone is a bit woo woo right now.
