The Quicky

Do you use your pets name, kids birthdays or favourite sporting team in your passwords? Chances are you do, and it turns out you're not alone.  And it's not only that. New research shows that we also love to use the same password for multiple accounts, only making it easier to hack into our precious digital lives.  In this episode of The Quicky, we speak to an expert to find out how to manage the hundreds of passwords we now require.  Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback?

Over the weekend, we watched as Russia teetered on the brink of civil war, capturing the world's attention. We woke up Sunday to an unexpected turn of events involving a deal with Belarus. But what happened in the lead up to that deal...and what does it mean? In this episode of The Quicky, we're breaking down exactly what happened and where Russian President Putin stands now with the war in Ukraine, after his own man told the Russian people that the reasons behind the conflict are all a lie.  Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback?

When Kathleen Folbigg was jailed in 2003 John Howard was the Prime Minister, MySpace was emerging as a new social network and iPhone's were still four years away from launching. Walked out of jail just over two weeks ago, she faced a world full of unfamiliar things.  On her first night of freedom, she ate pizza and drank something that was popular when she went to jail: Kahlua and Coke. But now that the rush of being free has subsided and the reality of life on the outside kicks in, what will life be like?  In this episode of The Quicky, we speak to a man who also spent time behind bars for a crime he didn't commit, and find out what life after prison is really like.  Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback?

Earlier this week the legislation that will allow Australians to vote on the Indigenous Voice to Parliament was passed, ending months of debate. All we need now is Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to set a date for Aussies to head to the polls and vote.  In the past few months we've heard arguments from both the 'yes' and 'no' camps. And amongst those, we've heard all kinds of conspiracies about just what The Voice will have the power to do.  In this episode of The Quicky we're going to bust some myths surrounding The Voice to Parliament.  Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback?

Yesterday morning we awoke to the news that a small submarine ferrying tourists to the wreck of the Titanic in the Mid Atlantic Ocean had disappeared.  A massive search and rescue operation is now underway.  In this episode of The Quicky we're asking all the questions you have about the missing submarine, its passengers and how it could have gone missing with the technology it has on board?  Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback?
