Mamamia Out Loud A Spectacular Writers' Festival Collapse & The Jennifer Lawrence Dog Drama
Since when did cosy chats about books suck up quite so many headlines? Adelaide Writers' Week is the longest-running literary event in Australia and this week it collapsed under the weight of its own controversy. So, Em asks Holly and Jessie, what are writers' festivals for, anyway?
Jennifer Lawrence re-homed her dogs after she had a baby and Jessie wants to know why nobody warned her that talking about that will ruin her life. And Jessie would know.
When does a situationship become a boy/girlfriend? And when does a boy/girlfriend become a partner? And does anyone (apart from Raye) like the word husband? Thanks to Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner, we have a new commitment ladder for relationships in 2026.
Also, the job choice that can predict your age and stage.
And the new endo test that could change everything for women tired of waiting for an answer about why they're in agony.
Oh, and did Holly just get fleeced by Harry Styles?
