Everywhere you turn right now, it's almost certain that you will see the colour pink. It's in our stores, on our social media pages and our TV's, all in celebration for a doll, well actually a movie about a doll, that for years we were told was doing young women a disservice. In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at the powerhouse that is the marketing campaign of the Barbie movie. How they took a toy that had seen a decline in sales and relaunched it to become a best seller. And whether confronting your products faults can go anyway to absolving them of their past mistakes.

Michele Bullock, an RBA employee for nearly 40 years, was announced on Friday as the new Reserve Bank of Australia Governor, taking over from Phillip Lowe, whose reputation has taken a blow over promises on interest rate rises that left many scrambling when they occurred earlier than expected. Will her appointment be a success story for women breaking through the glass ceiling, or is the timing of this promotion, amid a cost of living crisis and the bank having to constantly increase the cash rate, setting her up for failure?

Last week the Royal Commission into the Robodebt scandal handed down its findings. But not all of the report was made public. The scheme was labelled "cruel and crude"...so why the secrecy around who will be facing criminal charges? In this episode of The Quicky we take a deeper look at the Robodebt Royal Commission, what it discovered and whether it goes any way to giving those who were impacted a sense of closure.

Last Monday the global temperature reached 17.01 degrees celsius, breaking a record. Then, the very next day, it broke a record again reaching 17.18 degrees celsius. Now those numbers might seem surprising given how high the mercury reaches here in Australia during the summer months, but for climate scientists, it's a milestone that many hoped we wouldn't reach so soon. Right before the records fell, the UN also confirmed that El Niño is back, set to bring drought and scorching temperatures. In this episode of The Quicky we take a look at what this means for Australia as we brace for another hot dry summer. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!

Earlier this week we heard the news that Australia had recorded another case of an athlete suffering from Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE). The thing that made this case unique was that it was a female athlete that was diagnosed. The story of Adelaide Crows AFLW Premiership player Heather Anderson has a tragic ending, but could her death start a conversation that has so far only focussed on men in sport? In this episode of The Quicky, we look at what this landmark case means for women in sport and if there's anything we can do to protect us from damaging our brains when we're enjoying the sports we love.

The Reserve Bank of Australia will meet tomorrow to decide if inflation has started to come down enough to not call for another rate rise or at least leave them on hold for this month. But while we were delivered seemingly good news about inflation recently, the numbers aren’t exactly what they seem and that will play a big factor in whether home and business owners will be expected to fork out even more when it comes to mortgage payment time. Today we’re speaking to economist Richard Holden about the chances of yet another rate rise. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!

Over the weekend, we watched as Russia teetered on the brink of civil war, capturing the world's attention. We woke up Sunday to an unexpected turn of events involving a deal with Belarus. But what happened in the lead up to that deal...and what does it mean? In this episode of The Quicky, we're breaking down exactly what happened and where Russian President Putin stands now with the war in Ukraine, after his own man told the Russian people that the reasons behind the conflict are all a lie.

When Kathleen Folbigg was jailed in 2003 John Howard was the Prime Minister, MySpace was emerging as a new social network and iPhone's were still four years away from launching. Walked out of jail just over two weeks ago, she faced a world full of unfamiliar things. On her first night of freedom, she ate pizza and drank something that was popular when she went to jail: Kahlua and Coke. But now that the rush of being free has subsided and the reality of life on the outside kicks in, what will life be like? In this episode of The Quicky, we speak to a man who also spent time behind bars for a crime he didn't commit, and find out what life after prison is really like.

Earlier this week the legislation that will allow Australians to vote on the Indigenous Voice to Parliament was passed, ending months of debate. All we need now is Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to set a date for Aussies to head to the polls and vote. In the past few months we've heard arguments from both the 'yes' and 'no' camps. And amongst those, we've heard all kinds of conspiracies about just what The Voice will have the power to do. In this episode of The Quicky we're going to bust some myths surrounding The Voice to Parliament. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!
