  • It's Time To Burp Your House & The 3, 5, 7 Underwear Rule

    It's Time To Burp Your House & The 3, 5, 7 Underwear Rule
    Jan 29 2026
    You probably should be burping your house: every morning, every evening and whenever you get the urge throughout the day, tbh. Jessie Stephens explains to Emily Vernem and Holly Wainwright why not doing that is… a lil bit gross. And while we’re hygiene-sharing, Em has a question for the group: How many pairs of underwear do you take if you are going away for a weekend? Holly thought she knew the answer to this question, but she’s definitely wrong. Also, how many risks are parents allowed to take? We’re talking about Alex Honnold and Sanni McCandles - the man who just climbed a skyscraper with no ropes, net or parachute, and the mother of his little kids who watched him do it. Is it okay to just… carry on regardless with your passions, however isolating or deadly they are, once you have kids? Plus: Be more “vegan + bacon”. Why that’s not an oxymoron, but a philosophy to live by in 2026. Oh, and recommendations. Which this week include:Emily’s underwear edit - including Nala (the sexiest Aussie pants) and many more. Holly’s enthusiasm for Oscar-nommed Marty Supreme, in cinemas now, and a high-brow discussion about Timothée's bottom. And Jessie is watching The Pitt, Season Two, on HBO Max. Urgent addition! Mia’s new baby, a show for Gen X women who want to laugh - Unleashed. Coming next week.

  • A LITTLE TREAT: SUBS TASTER: Celebrities Look Emaciated And I Don’t Know What To Say

    A LITTLE TREAT: SUBS TASTER: Celebrities Look Emaciated And I Don’t Know What To Say
    Jan 29 2026
    Outlouders, have a little listen to today's subscriber episode. Listen to the full episode of Celebrities Look Emaciated And I Don’t Know What To Say at 5pm today. Not a subscriber? Get on it. Mia’s back in charge of today’s subscriber episode - and she’s brought Amelia Lester into the studio to talk about something we’re technically not supposed to notice. We’re currently living through the ‘weight loss injections and plastic surgery’ era and frankly, things are getting complicated. In this candid, subscriber-only episode, Mia and Amelia deep dive into why so many people in Hollywood - and even some of our friend groups - are suddenly looking unrecognizable and just a little bit AI. In this episode, they unpack the alarming “thinspo” trend and also ask the question no one wants to answer: when did looking like a real human being become a radical act? It’s the conversation Mia’s been wanting to have for a long time, but one that feels increasingly like it’s off limits. It’s raw, slightly uncomfortable and exactly why you’re here. Remember, this is just a little sneak peak.The full debrief drops for subscribers at 5pm. We’re giving away a Your Reformer Pilates bed (worth $3,400). And the good news is — as a subscriber, you're already in the running to win. 🎉 What To Listen To Next: Listen to our latest episodeListen: The Productivity Hack Jessie Swears By & Rogue Habits We Can't (Won't) QuitListen: "Hold On, I Just Need To Vent"Listen: Jessie's Twins Update & What We Really Did Over The HolidaysListen: Blake Lively, Taylor Swift, Revealing Texts & A Masterclass In Awkward ConversationsListen: Brooklyn Beckham, That ‘Inappropriate’ Dance & The Downfall Of A Family BrandListen: Brooklyn Beckham Goes Nuclear: An Emergency MeetingConnect your subscription to Apple Podcasts Discover more Mamamia Podcasts here including the very latest episode of Parenting Out Loud, the parenting podcast for people who don't listen to... parenting podcasts.
