Covering news, pop culture, and big ideas, plus the small stuff that matters, Mamamia Out Loud features a rotating panel of hosts, including Mia Freedman, Jessie Stephens, Holly Wainwright, Clare Stephens, Amelia Lester, and Em Vernem.

TASTER: UNLEASHED - ‘I’m Too Busy To Have A Shower - So I Don’t.’

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/cf98aa58-544b-4f7b-a9b4-b3e50063bd9b/transcript

Outside a Massachusetts courtroom, women have travelled across the country to hold signs that read "she needed help". Jessie Stephens unpacks forensic fandom — the internet's habit of working a real trial as if it’s a season of Lost — and why those signs might not be about Lindsay Clancy at all.

Plus, Holly Wainwright is back from holidaying in Harry and Meghan’s new home and has a surprising (for her) new take. 

Also, Married at First Sight is reportedly going sober, drastically cutting its alcohol rules after a series of scandals. Jessie has thoughts about whether a show built on a hand grenade survives without one.

And, Olivia Rodrigo is our crush and pin-up in a week when we need heroes, and why men are cutting off their eyelashes for a really dumb reason.

Get access to Very Peri, Mamamia's exclusive perimenopause series, for just $59. 25 world-leading experts, over 20 on-demand sessions, available now. We’ve sorted through the noise so you don't have to. Go to veryperi.com.au today. You hot? Same.

FREE SUBS TASTER: What Mia Didn’t Know About Jessie’s Postpartum

It took $18 billion to get kids off instagram. Meta has agreed to pay the landmark sum to make social media safer. Mia breaks down what’s actually changing, whether it will actually help, or whether we’re all too addicted.

Plus, Mia and Nicole Kidman have something surprisingly specific in common. There’s a “freezer spell” trend taking over group chats, is it setting a boundary… or just a very cold way of avoiding a difficult conversation?

A tragic death has prompted a deeply uncomfortable conversation about sex, consent and what young people now consider normal. Amelia looks at why sexual choking has become so widespread among young people and why experts say that consenting to something doesn’t necessarily make it safe.
