  • SUNDAY SPECIAL: Unleashed. The Podcast For Women Who Need A Laugh.

    SUNDAY SPECIAL: Unleashed. The Podcast For Women Who Need A Laugh.
    May 23 2026

    Outlouders, today for a Sunday Special we're dropping an episode of our sister podcast Unleashed into your feed... It's a little bit rogue, just like us and we think you're going to love it. You're welcome.

    Grace heard someone breaking into her apartment, grabbed a tennis racket, lowered her voice and screamed through the door in her mouth guard. It was not, in fact, a burglar. Mary has had it with people saying 'I Love You'. We disagree (and we love Mary, very much). Cath confesses that she dreads holidays since her divorce. Bruna lives with lupus and wakes up in pain every single day, and almost no one knows. And Grace had nits for four days and genuinely thought it was perimenopause. And the songs that changed us. Whether sitting on a school bus, lying in a delivery room, or chasing David Bowie down a street in New York, it's a lot. It's everything. It's Unleashed.

    In your ears today: Grace Lam, Mary Coustas, Bruna Papandrea and Cath Mahoney.

      The End Bits:
      Follow us on Instagram, DM us thoughts, feelings and questions @unleashed.show

    • It's Sexy TV Season & An Embarrassing Email Mistake

      It's Sexy TV Season & An Embarrassing Email Mistake
      May 22 2026
      A very wise man has a 'State of Life' Test he gives himself every Monday morning. So we did it. Results… vary. Forget boy bands, man bands are back. But is anyone listening to new music, anyway? SUBSCRIBE to Mamamia and never miss a word of Out Loud. Plus get access to every story and our exercise app, MOVE. We hate to bring it up (again), but Em has something in common with Elon Musk. Also, the email sign-offs you should never, ever use. Sincerely. And, reccos (all TV this week).... Holly recommends Rivals: Season 2 on Disney Plus because it’s 'beyond earthly praise'. Clare recommends Should I Marry A Murderer? on Netflix. because she says it’s quality murder doc. Em recommends Off Campus on Amazon Prime, because it will fill the Heated Rivalry hole (in your heart).
