The Quicky

When is the last time you paid for something with cold, hard cash? We saw a decrease in cash transactions during the COVID-19 pandemic, but it turns out, we we're looking down a cashless barrel long before 2020. With experts arguing that a cashless world offers us convenience, transparency and stability, it's left others feeling worried. In this episode of The Quicky we take a look at what a cashless Australia might look like, who is left vulnerable, and just how likely are we to really get there?

Please note, this episode speaks of child abuse. The Franke's. They were a stereotypical American mormon family from Utah. In 2015, Ruby & her husband Kevin started posting vlogs of their day to day life with their 6 kids. But over the years, loyal fans started voicing their concerns at how the parents were disciplining their children. In this episode of The Quicky we discover what happened when the cameras weren't rolling inside the walls of the Franke house, and how this seemingly normal, albeit strict, mum of 6 was torturing her own children.

If you ask any of your friends, family or colleagues how they are on any given day, chances are a number of them will respond with 'tired'. We get it. Between work, families, keeping up a household, thinking of the menu for the week, exercising, self care and everything else you've got going on...it's no wonder we're all tired. But just how tired is normal? At what point does it tip into chronic fatigue territory? In this episode of The Quicky, we speak with a medical professional to see if our tiredness is normal, and what can be done about it.

ICYMI: There's been 13 rate rises since 2022. Homeowners are wondering when will increases to their mortgage repayments slow down? Others are asking the question what should I do with my home loan right now? While economists and other financial experts might not see eye-to-eye on a timeline, the good news is, they all agree rate cuts are coming. So, should we be looking to buy now? Wait to see if there’s a drop in house prices? Or even refinance on a good rate? It’s all up for debate in today’s episode.

Let us all take a moment for our favourite internet personalities who are mourning the potential ban of TikTok in the US. After passing through the United States House of Representatives, a bill to block the social media app from use across the country is sitting with the senate and is looking more and more likely that access to app will eventually be blocked due to privacy and propaganda concerns. So with action to bar Americans from accessing TikTok so rapidly advancing, could something similar happen in Australia too? On today’s episode of The Quicky, we’re on the case.

Six years. That's how long Vladimir Putin will remain in power in Russia... for now. Earlier this week he was victorious in the country's election - winning in a landslide result of 87.3%. But why did Russia even hold an election when it was almost certain that Putin would be re-elected? In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at what happens now for Russia and the rest of the world, particularly Ukraine, as well as claims of a rigged election. Want to try our new exercise app?

They're the puppet masters of our favourite reality TV shows. From the moment a celeb is recruited or a person is plucked from obscurity to star in the latest cooking, dating or survival show, Reality TV producers are back there, pulling the strings, recruiting the biggest personalities and making sure each and every episode will be packed full of drama and scandal. So why do they do it? What war stories can they share? And who are worse, the normies or the celebs? Reality TV producers spill the tea on what really happens behind the reality TV curtain from MAFS to MKR and Masterchef. Want to try our new exercise app?

Sam Kerr. We know her. We love her. But our love was called into question this week, when it was revealed that in January last year, after our star Matilda had been out celebrating, a drunken taxi ride in Twickenham ended with her throwing up and allegedly arguing with the cabbie over the fare. Police were then called where Kerr reportedly got into an altercation with a white police officer, allegedly calling him a 'stupid white bastard'. She's since been charged with racially aggravated harassment. But what exactly constitutes racism? Can a person of colour be racist towards a white person? In this episode of The Quicky we take a look at exactly this with Craig Foster, who admits to reevaluating his initial opinions of Sam following the news. Want to try our new exercise app?

Growing out a fringe, recovering from a BBL, even accusations that she might be Banksy? These were just some of the conspiracies clouding the Royals last month after Princess Kate was not seen following a planned abdomen surgery for a serious but undisclosed health condition. And earlier this week, hoping to put an end to the conspiracy theories, a photo of Princess Kate and her three kids on Mother's Day was posted to the official Instagram of Kate & William. Hours later a kill notice was issued because the photo had been manipulated. In this episode of The Quicky, we speak to our resident royal expert, Holly Wainwright about what exactly happened following that photo and what it means for the Royals now.

Some of Australia's elite all boys schools have been making headlines again - one for all the wrong reasons. Following an exposé revealing female teachers at a Sydney school felt unsafe and marginalised by the toxic behaviours of both students and other teachers. This follows from numerous other reports in recent years, including 2022 when a separate Sydney school expelled six students after a brutal hazing ritual was exposed. So, is it time to dismantle the all boys school system? In this episode of The Quicky, we speak with a man who works with students across Australia teaching healthy masculinity.

After new data was made available exposing the gender pay gaps across Australian industries, it made many women wonder, if the men up the corporate ladder are getting paid so much more, could the men beside me also be getting a higher salary? In this episode of The Quicky we take a look at which businesses are still behind when it comes to the gender pay gap, what is being done to change that now that it's out in the open and what to do if you find out you're being paid less than your male colleagues.

What is going on with The Royals? A surgery following King Charles enlarged prostate, William's sudden leave, and until yesterday we hadn't seen a glimpse of Princess Kate in public for months, after undergoing a planned abdominal surgery for a serious but undisclosed health condition. The internet blew up with conspiracies of what might've really happened to Kate, everything from BBL's to bangs. But why are we so distrustful of the information the Royal Family has given us? In this episode of The Quicky, we'll take a look at what is going on with the British Royals and why we feel like something terrible must have happened.

Last year when the popularity of weight loss drugs surged, it lead to a worldwide shortage, that is still going on today. In a bid to assist with those shortages, some compounding pharmacists mass-produced their own versions of popular weight-loss drugs. Earlier this week the TGA, which regulates medicines in Australia, proposed a change which would effectively ban compounded injectable weight loss drugs from being made or sold in Australia, due to concerns the drugs may be unsafe or ineffective. In this episode of The Quicky, we shed a light on the safety and effectiveness of compounded drugs compared to their commercial counterparts. Want to try our new exercise app?

Charlotte the stingray is an internet sensation. Why you ask? Because she's currently pregnant and despite researchers attempts, no one knows how! Charlotte has been in a tank in North Carolina, with no male sting rays in sight. So is this a case of sisters doing it for themselves? Or has some kind of cross breeding happened with Moe and Larry, two male white spot bamboo sharks that occupy the same tank? In this episode of The Quicky, we speak to a stingray expert to find out just how likely it is that Charlotte is about to be a mum to shark-ray babies. Want to try our new exercise app?
