Mamamia Out Loud

You probably should be burping your house: every morning, every evening and whenever you get the urge throughout the day, tbh. Jessie Stephens explains to Emily Vernem and Holly Wainwright why not doing that is… a lil bit gross.
And while we’re hygiene-sharing, Em has a question for the group: How many pairs of underwear do you take if you are going away for a weekend? Holly thought she knew the answer to this question, but she’s definitely wrong.
Also, how many risks are parents allowed to take? We’re talking about Alex Honnold and Sanni McCandless - the man who just climbed a skyscraper with no ropes, net or parachute, and the mother of his little kids who watched him do it. Is it okay to just… carry on regardless with your passions, however isolating or deadly they are, once you have kids?
Plus: Be more “vegan + bacon”. Why that’s not an oxymoron, but a philosophy to live by in 2026.
Oh, and recommendations. Which this week include:

Emily’s underwear edit - including Nala (the sexiest Aussie pants) and many more.
Holly’s enthusiasm for Oscar-nommed Marty Supreme, in cinemas now, and a high-brow discussion about Timothée's bottom.
And Jessie is watching The Pitt, Season Two, on HBO Max.
Urgent addition! Mia’s new baby, a show for Gen X women who want to laugh - Unleashed. Coming next week.

Outlouders, have a little listen to today's subscriber episode. Hear the full episode of Celebrities Look Emaciated And I Don’t Know What To Say at 5pm today. Not a subscriber? Get on it.
Mia’s back in charge of today’s subscriber episode — and she’s brought Amelia Lester into the studio to talk about something we’re technically not supposed to notice.
We’re currently living through the ‘weight loss injections and plastic surgery’ era and frankly, things are getting complicated. In this candid, subscriber-only episode, Mia and Amelia deep dive into why so many people in Hollywood - and even some of our friend groups - are suddenly looking unrecognisable and just a little bit AI.
In this episode, they unpack the alarming “thinspo” trend and also ask the question no one wants to answer: when did looking like a real human being become a radical act?
It’s the conversation Mia’s been wanting to have for a long time, but one that feels increasingly like it’s off limits. It’s raw, slightly uncomfortable and exactly why you’re here.
Remember, this is just a little sneak peak.The full debrief drops for subscribers at 5pm.
We’re giving away a Your Reformer Pilates bed (worth $3,400). And the good news is — as a subscriber, you're already in the running to win. 🎉

What is happening in Minneapolis and why is it being called a “watershed” moment for Trump’s America? Sorry, Amelia Lester, you are not getting a week off from explaining something distressing happening in the USA. And, while we’re at it, what is with the Melania documentary, and why is it opening in cinemas in Australia this week?

How are you meant to behave when your relationship ends in a very public mess not of your choosing? Hide away and lick your wounds? Spill every ugly detail in 25 Instagram stories? 2026 has other ideas and we have a new playbook for “wronged wife”, thanks to Australian former ’WAG’ Jules Neale.
Also, Amelia, Jessie Stephens and Holly Wainwright consider whether Coco Gauff should have been allowed to have a tennis tantrum in peace. What’s the latest with the Beckham family meltdown and what do leaked celebrity text messages tell us about our own group-chats?

Outlouders, have a little listen to today's subscriber episode. Listen to the full episode of A Royal Summer Update Of Very Big Feelings at 5pm today. Not a subscriber? Get on it.

Mia's firmly in charge on today's subscriber episode — and taking the Royals with her.
Holly and Jessie join her to dissect the Sussexes’ messy summer of rebrands, resignations and 'philanthropy', and ask the question no one in Montecito wants to answer: can you be famous and furious about fame? Half-in, half-out? Not in this economy.
We get into leaked photos, charity confusion, royal egos, sibling feuds, e-scooters on palace grounds and why being announced as “Duchess” when no one’s in the room might be… a choice.
It’s chaotic, deeply opinionated — and exactly why you’re here.

Remember, this is just a taste; an amuse bouche for podcast gourmets. The full auditory meal is coming in hot at 5pm for subscribers.
We’re giving away a Your Reformer Pilates bed (worth $3,400). And the good news is — as a subscriber, you're already in the running to win. 🎉

Are you one productivity hack away from finally nailing your life? We’ve got you. In this ‘special little treat’ episode (IT'S A DOUBLE EP, OUTLOUDERS 💃) Amelia Lester, Jessie Stephens, and Claire Murphy dive deep into the doable productivity hacks that might actually transform your working life - from the mental clarity of 'hard pants' to why Taylor Swift treats her energy like a luxury item.
Then, keep your listening ears turned on for the next part of this banger of a double EP as Em Vernem joins Claire and Jessie to carry on the conversation. Our trio bring you the delightfully unhinged content you didn’t know you needed by dissecting the niche social media rabbit holes we go down late at night. From 'Hot Dudes Reading' to 'Girls Carrying Shit' or the oddly soothing world of 'Rate My Spoon' (it’s a thing, promise), we’re celebrating the corners of the internet that keep us scrolling long after we should have been asleep. It’s fun, it’s a little bit weird, and it’s exactly what we’re into. Dive in, Outlouders — your algorithm will thank you.
