You might’ve seen pictures of packed beaches across Sydney over the weekend, and you’d be forgiven for thinking they could’ve been taken before lockdown. It's highlighted an all too familiar divide between those who can, and those who cannot, depending on where they live. But this isn’t a scene only locked down Sydneysiders are familiar with. The weekend's 'beach shaming' speaks to how we’ve all enjoyed different privileges at different stages over the past 18 months, and how freedom has never been linear as we learn to live with Covid.Plus, people are having a lot of feelings about Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s official red carpet reunion.

Opposition leader Anthony Albanese has proposed a $300 cash bonus for vaccinated Australians.  Meanwhile, New York City will soon implement a vaccine passport system, where people will have to show proof of vaccination to go to restaurants, gyms and other indoor events. All around the world, countries and businesses are getting creative in a bid to entice vaccine-hesitant people to get immunised...so are incentives and vaccine passports are a good idea? Plus, what is a pseudo-smart person? How to spot someone who is actually smart, as opposed to someone who is pretending. And, the celebrity Jessie refuses to cancel, & the Matt Damon-Ben Affleck theory that explains why when one of them is doing well, the other isn't.  The End Bits Recommendations: If you can, Jessie wants you to think about making a donation this Jeans for Genes day.

There were so many highlights at the Olympic Games over the weekend, with Emma McKeon sitting at the top of that list. The 27-year-old from Wollongong has been catapulted from 'highly respected swimmer' to celebrity/household name status. From here, Emma's life will entirely change, but what pressure will be put on her in the aftermath of her success at these games? Has Australia learned any lessons from the way we've treated past Olympians?  Plus, is Prince George being bullied by a new cartoon whose trailer has already gone viral?   And... One in five women say COVID has impacted their plans for having children. How is the pandemic changing our timelines to get pregnant?

All we want to talk about is the Olympics. This week, work has really been getting in the way of our Olympic schedule. Swimming conflicting with meetings… it’s very stressful… If you've been in the same boat, Jessie has picked out all the moments you might have missed, and the things that have got everyone talking this week.

Thousands of anti-lockdown protesters marched in major Australian cities over the weekend. It’s estimated at least 3500 people marched through Sydney, amidst the Delta outbreak there, in what’s being described as a ‘super spreader event.’ So how are we feeling, was this the final straw? And what do those who rallied at these protests really believe, and why? Plus, an Olympic team’s uniform choice has changed the conversation about “revealing” sportswear.

Yesterday, you would have been hard-pressed to miss a pretty shocking 'mansplaining' moment from a press conference happening over in Japan. It came after the news that Brisbane will host the 2032 Olympics. During what should be a time of celebration, why do we feel sorry for Annastacia Palaszczuk today?  Plus, resilience has become a bit of a buzzword. But sometimes, it’s the smallest things that can help us through the shitty times, and today, we’re talking about what that means to us… and you.   And, our best and worst of the week, which includes TV shows and zoom school.

Hey Outlouders. Dropping this No Filter episode into your feed in case you need it this week. It's all about resilience, something many of us are struggling with right now. If you are, sending love. --- Hugh van Cuylenberg’s job is to teach resilience. He was a primary school teacher volunteering in Northern India when he had a life-changing realisation. Despite the underprivileged community, the children were from, they were remarkably positive. But back in Australia? Well, people found it hard to be happy and they had so much. Which is how The Resilience Project came to life. He learned that there are three key traits and behaviours that are the keys to resilience. And now he teaches it to others at conferences, in his podcast, The Imperfects, and in his book called The Resilience Project. So if you’re feeling a bit shit right now - or you’ve ever felt a bit shit - this one is for you. THE END BITS: With thanks to Hugh van Cuylenburg.

The billionaires are pissing Jessie off.

Everyone is talking about the covid vaccine TV ads. These are our first look at the long-awaited campaign by the government to encourage more Australians to get vaccinated and they dropped yesterday. Two very different ads, but they've been universally panned. Why have they caused such backlash? Plus, we need to talk about Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte, and… not Samantha. We have a lot of feelings about the first look at the Sex And The City reboot.  And, an unpopular opinion about overthinkers.  The End Bits Recommendations: Jessie and Mia want you to watch Luxe Listings Sydney on Prime Video CREDITS Hosts: Mia Freedman, Jessie Stephens and Holly Wainwright Producer: Emma Gillespie  Executive Producer: Elissa Ratliff CONTACT US Via our PodPhone on 02 8999 9386Via our email at [email protected]  Via our Outlouders Facebook page- https://www.facebook.com/groups/329632330777506/Mamamia Out Loud is a podcast by Mamamia https://www.mamamia.com.au/author/mamamiaoutloud/ Mamamia acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the Land we have recorded this podcast on, the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation.

It's been a week, so we're talking about some of the news headlines that brought us joy over the past few days. Surprisingly, many of them involve sport.  We need to talk about the phenomenon best known as the PICK ME GIRL. Lucy and Em spoke about it recently on the Undone podcast. It's all over YouTube and Tik Tok, and like most terms that include the word ‘girl’, it’s a term of derision. Jessie explains why you do not want to be a pick-me girl. Plus, Mia and Jessie have received an overwhelming response after the release of this No Filter episode. We talk through why it touched so many listeners, and when it's important to tell other people's stories.  And, our best and worst of the week, including new and old friends and corn fritters gone wrong.

Jessie needs to rant. It's about the social media eruption of anger towards too many people out and about amidst a lockdown. While we bunker down, unable to see relatives overseas, missing out on weddings and births and all the rest, COVID has found its way, once again, into aged care homes. So, is shaming people for going on a beach walk really the hill we want to die on? Plus, an Olympian has been banned from the Games for using a non-performance enhancing drug. Is that fair enough, or an outdated judgement?

Australia has a new Deputy Prime Minister. After this morning's National Party leadership spill,  Michael McCormack has been ousted and Barnaby Joyce is back in. So why should you care? Plus, we've learned more about what was going on behind the scenes of Meghan and Harry’s Oprah interview. If Prince Charles decides Archie and Lilibet aren’t going to get titles, will it be about modernising the monarchy, or is it a stab at Harry for abandoning royal duties? And, it’s official, the way to achieve your health goals is simple... lower your standards.  The End Bits Recommendations: Holly wants you to watch A Very English Scandal on Netflix To learn more about our membership offering and to listen to the Daily Drop, click here CREDITS Hosts: Mia Freedman, Holly Wainwright and Jessie Stephens Producer: Emma Gillespie  Executive Producer: Elissa Ratliff CONTACT US Via our PodPhone on 02 8999 9386Via our email at [email protected]  Via our Outlouders Facebook page- https://www.facebook.com/groups/329632330777506/Mamamia Out Loud is a podcast by Mamamia https://www.mamamia.com.au/author/mamamiaoutloud/ Mamamia acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the Land we have recorded this podcast on, the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation.

Billie Eilish is in hot water this week. The 19-year-old singer has been accused of queer-baiting, racial slurs, and she's being called out for having a problematic new boyfriend. So what's going on, what is the internet saying about it, and what exactly is 'queer-baiting'. Plus, do you have an adult bully in your life? If you do, what do you do about it? And, our best and worst of the week, including finding joy 'in the moment', and a sentimental Holly.  The End Bits Recommendations: Jessie wants you to watch Roll Red Roll on Netflix.

Did you miss the Four Corners special on Scomo and QAnon? We watched it so you don't have to, and we're breaking down the controversial investigation to tell you if you really should be outraged. Plus, we need to talk about Lorde's Bum. It's divided us. After the singer dropped her first song in 4 years, Mia thinks it's the single's cover art that everyone is talking about, not the amazing song she wrote. Holly and Jessie think it's a bold and empowered statement. Why can't we look away, and what does it mean?  And, what is birth control counselling? A new trial could see pharmacists offer private birth control counselling to young women who turn up wanting to purchase emergency contraception. So how would it actually work? And what has the reaction to it been? The End Bits Recommendations: Jessie wants you to read Malibu Rising by Taylor Jenkins Reid.

Maddie Groves is one of Australia’s best swimmers, so why has she pulled out of Olympic Trials,  and in doing so basically burned her chance to compete at the Olympics? And how has she flipped the tables with a tweet? Plus, what is Main Character Syndrome, and do you have it? Are you the main character in your circles or more of a trusty sidekick? And, our best and worst of the week, including a BIG announcement from Holly.  The End Bits Recommendations: Mia wants you to check out The songs from Bo Burnham's 'Inside' on Spotify You can watch Lin Manuel Miranda on Jimmy Fallon here CREDITS Hosts: Mia Freedman, Holly Wainwright and Jessie Stephens Producer: Emma Gillespie  Executive Producer: Elissa Ratliff CONTACT US Via our PodPhone on 02 8999 9386Via our email at [email protected]  Via our Outlouders Facebook page- https://www.facebook.com/groups/329632330777506/Mamamia Out Loud is a podcast by Mamamia https://www.mamamia.com.au/author/mamamiaoutloud/ Mamamia acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the Land we have recorded this podcast on, the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation.
