S1 Ep 74IN CONVERSATION: The Veronicas
EHello Shameless family! Today we are joined by the powerhouses that make up The Veronicas - arguably Australia’s most recognisable female band. We caught up with twin sisters Jess and Lisa Origliasso in Brunswick to chat about the meaning behind their new hit single, Think Of Me, and what it’s like to become very very famous when you’re just teenagers. Thanks so much to today's sponsors, Forever New, for making this episode possible. Shameless is a production of Shameless Media. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

S1 Ep 73Cancelling cancel culture
EMonday fam! Hello! Welcome back. On today’s show: Justin Bieber's strange defence of Chris Brown, The Sports Illustrated shoot that sparked quite a conversation in our Facebook group and the proliferation of cancel culture: Why don’t we ever let people muck up without demanding they die?

S1 Ep 72IN CONVERSATION: Laura Byrne
EThis week on the show, we are joined by the absolutely delightful Laura Byrne. You might remember Laura from her time on The Bachelor, where she won Matty J’s heart and the affection of the country, too. Outside of reality television though, Laura runs Toni May, a jewellery company full of hand-crafted pieces that started selling at markets for a fun outside of her day job. We meet a lot of people in this job, but we have to say, Laura is one of the kindest, warmest, most down to earth women we’ve had the pleasure of chatting to. We caught up with her in Sydney not long ago - just before she got engaged!!! - to talk all things love, business, miscarriage and pregnancy. You can follow Laura at @ladyandacat on Instagram.

S1 Ep 70IN CONVERSATION: Natalie Fornasier
EToday, we are joined by a person who has influenced Zara and I more than any “Instagram influencer” or “YouTube vlogger” ever has. Her name is Natalie Fornasier, and she has 839 Instagram followers. Your eyebrows might be raised right now, and you might be wondering how a normal Sydney girl with a normal social media following could be so influential. Well, last year, Natalie sat down with Byrdie.com.au for a story titled “I’m 24 and Living With Advanced Melanoma—This Is My Story”. Natalie’s words and insights in that interview were what informed our very last segment of Shameless in 2018, and what pushed Zara to change her own relationship with sun tanning forever. Today, we sit down with Natalie, who is now 25, but still grappling with her stage four cancer diagnosis. We talk about friends, finding love, and what you can do to spread the word. We have chosen to forgo an episode sponsor today, and have dedicated the episode to Call Time On Melanoma. To support Call Time On Melanoma, visit www.calltimeonmelanoma.com.au, or follow them on Instagram @calltimeonmelanoma. This episode was produced by Michelle Andrews.

S1 Ep 69The Influencer Olympics
EIt's Monday! And it's a public holiday too! Happy Easter lovely people. On today's show: the Queen of PR might be getting her own reality TV show. Plus, we get into the nitty gritty of the Influencer Olympics, otherwise known as Coachella, and the machinations of why Lara Bingle was slut-shamed out of the country.

S1 Ep 68IN CONVERSATION: Rowi Singh
EHappy In Conversation Thursday lovely people! On today's show, we are joined with Rowi Singh. It’s hard to condense what and who Rowi is in a quick soundbite, but we will give it a shot. Rowi is an influencer, yes, but she’s not your average influencer. She might have more than a hundred thousand followers on Instagram, but she’s not about detox teas and teeth whitener. Instead, Rowi’s brand is her creativity. She’s a wildly talented makeup artist, who bluntly refuses to colour inside any of the lines. She’s also a proud Punjabi woman who is ready to call time on cultural appropriation, who is never afraid to embrace colour, and is unapologetic in both her feminism and her femininity. This chat is political and candid and vivacious - just like the woman you see on Instagram and YouTube. We hope you enjoy!

S1 Ep 68Alex, Richie, and reading between the lines
EHappy Monday Shameless community! Coming up on today’s episode - the scam that’s sweeping across Instagram. Plus, the Bachelor In Paradise conversation that the country is talking about… without actually talking about it at all, and the influencer and alcohol debate that has us just a little confused.

S1 Ep 67IN CONVERSATION: DJ Tigerlily
EHaaaaappy Thursday friends! Wow, do we have a treat for you today. If you’ve ever been to a nightclub, or a music festival, the chances are you know the name, but perhaps you don’t know the story behind one of our country’s most successful musical exports. In this chat, we explore who DJ Tigerlily is - yes - but we also get to know Dara Hayes, the woman behind the elaborate wigs and costumes. You’ll find that Dara, the 27-year-old who lives with her boyfriend and their one-year-old Groodle, is enigmatic; a refreshing blend of passion, charm, and honesty.
