It’s the first day of autumn and Amy Gerard is officially 39.9 with just days to go until the big 4-0. This episode kicks off with an important Breast Check Day reminder before Chris attempts to “prepare” Amy for what turning forty supposedly does to you (spoiler: hoarding, Google reviews and weather obsession).

Then Amy goes IN on the latest MAFS drama, breaking down the controversial groom demanding a “submissive” wife and why his language has women across Australia furious. The Facebook Mums Group brings another hot debate is naming your baby “King” empowering… or setting them up for disaster? Plus, celebrity first jobs that will genuinely shock you, the truth about how badly we’re sleeping, and the emotional parenting moment that hit Chris hard while hanging out the washing.
