Cocaine use is rising in suburban Australia, and one story about “cocaine mums” went absolutely bananas this week. Is this mummy wine culture 2.0? 

Meanwhile, CDs are back and suddenly a Discman with wired headphones is cool again. But maybe The Great Unplugging isn’t really about nostalgia. Maybe parents are just desperate for a device that doesn’t have an algorithm attached to it.

Plus, the Aussie dad who gave his kids an almighty dressing-down over the pool fence, Kim Kardashian's four nanny system, and Ben Affleck's existential crisis on a podcast. 

Reccos:

Stacey recommends 70 Up on SBS On Demand

Amelia recommends this merino wool sauna hat to look cute while sweating

Monique recommends building a Christmas Battery Box with the greatest hits: 
AA, AAA, C's, LR44, CR2032, A precision screwdriver set ... and tiny scissors.
