You’ll Never Hear Children’s Music the Same Way Again

Children’s music is everywhere - but most of us have never stopped to think about the people behind it (or why those songs hit kids so hard). This week on Wiggle Talk, Anthony joins Simon and Lachy in the studio with award-winning filmmaker Penny Lane, director of the HBO Original documentary If You’re Happy and You Know It! - a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the artists who write the earworms, perform to the world’s toughest audience, and shape so many of our daily parenting moments. You’ll come away hearing your child’s favourite songs (and your role in them) a little differently.   THE HBO ORIGINAL DOCUMENTARY IF YOU’RE HAPPY AND YOU KNOW IT IS AVAILABLE NOW ON HBO MAX.  YOU CAN WATCH IT HERE.   HOSTSSimon Pryce Lachlan GillespieAnthony Field GUESTPenny Lane - @pennyjupiter PRODUCERSProduced by The Wiggles and Mylk MediaMadeline JoannouNick Webb Got a question for The Wiggles?

The Conversations That Are Still Sitting With Us

Some conversations don’t end when the microphones turn off. Simon and Lachy pause to reflect on the moments that have shaped season 2 so far - the ones that lingered, sparked conversations at home, or quietly shifted the way we think about parenting. They revisit powerful stories of grief, neurodiversity, boundaries, sobriety, movement, consent and safety. From Paul Field’s deeply personal story of loss, to Hugh van Cuylenburg sharing how he told his child they were autistic, to reflections from guests like OG Purple Wiggle Jeff Fatt, Maz Compton, Sean Szeps, Turia Pitt, and Will & Woody - alongside practical guidance from experts like Sandhya Menon and Victoria Barendson - these are the conversations that have set the tone for the season.

How To Talk To Children About Their Bodies, Consent & Safety

Some of the most important conversations we’ll ever have with our children are also the ones that make us squirm - private parts, consent, “safe vs unsafe” touch and what to do when something doesn’t feel right. In this episode of Wiggle Talk, Simon and Lachy sit down with psychologist and Safe Kids Project founder Victoria Barendsen to unpack how to teach body autonomy from toddlerhood in calm, everyday ways – without fear, shame or scary lectures.  Content note: This episode includes discussion of child safety and sexual abuse in an age-appropriate, non-graphic way.   HOSTSSimon Pryce Lachlan Gillespie GUESTVictoria Barendsen - @thesafekidsprojectYou can find out more about The Safe Kids Project here.

Joel’s known for cutting through confusing food advice and giving parents permission to focus on what actually matters: balance, flavour, routine and connection - not perfection, just what works.

Jeff Fatt: A Quiet Life in Purple

Most families know “Wake Up Jeff,” but far fewer know the gentle person behind it. Original Purple Wiggle, Jeff Fatt, sits down with Lachy and Simon for a rare conversation about growing into the purple skivvy, navigating shyness, and finding his place in a role he never chased - but ended up defining. Jeff never set out to be a symbol of anything - he was just a quiet kid from Casino, NSW who loved music. But somewhere between The Cockroaches and that purple skivvy, he became an accidental icon of inclusion for millions of families.

Can Watching Children's TV Actually Build Resilience?

Every parent knows those big-feeling moments - when your child loses a game, feels frustrated, or bursts into tears over something small. This week, Simon and Lachy chat with two child-development researchers from Central Queensland University whose study of Bluey made headlines - revealing that almost half the episodes model resilience and emotional strength. They unpack how animal characters like Bluey, Bingo (even Wags and Dorothy) help children understand feelings, why shows like Bluey can help kids learn to “try again,” and how co-watching can turn screen time into connection time.

Hugh van Cuylenburg: Seeing The World Through His Neurodivergent Child’s Eyes

When The Resilience Project’s Hugh Van Cuylenburg wrote an open letter to parents of neurodivergent children, it struck a chord around the world. In this chat, Hugh joins Simon and Lachy to talk about the kind of love that changes you - the messy, beautiful, exhausting kind that comes from raising a child who experiences the world differently. It’s a conversation about patience, empathy and letting go of what you thought parenting would look like. Hugh’s honesty reminds us that while there’s no perfect way to do this, meeting your child where they are might just be the most powerful thing you can do.

Turia Pitt on Why Being a Little Selfish Might Make You a Better Parent

It all started with a hot chocolate. For Turia Pitt, that small, everyday moment became a wake-up call. She’d been doing what so many parents do - giving everything to everyone else, and leaving nothing for herself. In this conversation with Simon and Lachy, Turia opens up about burnout, boundaries, and the surprising power of being a little selfish. She shares how learning to say no changed her family life, how she’s teaching her boys the value of self-care, and why looking after yourself isn’t indulgent - it’s essential.

Stories We Probably Shouldn’t Tell (with Captain Feathersword)

It’s one thing to tour the world making music for kids. It’s another to survive it. In this episode, Captain Feathersword (Paul Paddick) is back with Anthony, Simon and Lachy to swap more stories from the road - late-night Xbox tournaments, $20K tech bills, seafood market regrets and all. They also get real about parenting from a distance, the pressure of live performance, and why they kept going through it all.

The Invisible Load of Disability With Jordan Ablett

You know that gut feeling? The one that whispers something isn’t right, even when everyone around you says not to worry? Jordan Ablett knows it well.

Why Murray Cook Walked Away From The Wiggles - And What Brought Him Back

Murray Cook never planned to become a global icon in children’s music - but a university assignment changed everything. Before there were skivvies, stadiums, or songs stuck in your head for decades, there were just four mates, a borrowed trailer, and a whole lot of heart. In this rare sit-down, Murray (the O.G. Red Wiggle) shares the real story behind the rise of The Wiggles. He reflects on the moment they realised something special was happening, the years of relentless touring, and how early childhood education gave the group its purpose. He also opens up about the toll of fame on family life, the decision to step away, and what keeps pulling him back onstage.  It’s honest, funny, and full of heart - just like Murray.
