What Ever Happened To Pete Evans?
Prior to 2020, Pete Evans was a judge on the popular Aussie TV reality cooking show, My Kitchen Rules. He was just another celebrity chef, not that different to the rest of the foodie loving kitchen tyrants, or so we thought. By the end of 2020, Evans was banned from social media platforms, dropped by management and sponsors and was even fined tens of thousands of dollars. Today, we find out what happens to someone like Pete Evans, banned from the mainstream, and left to the echo chambers of the far right conspiracy theorists. Has the banishment led to any meaningful change or did it actually make matters worse? GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!

The Sex Act That’s Now Against The Law, But How Do You Prove It?
South Australia has recently come on board with enacting laws outlawing a sly and dangerous form of sexual assault that blurs the lines of consent. Stealthing, or the nonconsensual removal of a condom during intercourse is now outlawed across several Australian states and territories but when we shared the latest news on this on social media, the comments section voiced a fear that many shared… how do you prove it? Today we look at when stealthing laws have actually found someone guilty and how we expect them to be handled in courts across the country. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback?

Esther Perel & The Rise Of The Marriage Sabbatical
Listen to Claire's full interview with Esther Perel here. Divorce rates reportedly spiked in the wake of the global pandemic, many relationships struggling the extended time locked up together without the ability to take some time away from one another. So now that, hopefully, the worst of Covid is behind us, do we need to consider taking a break from our relationships to regroup and start over? Today, we speak to world renowned relationship expert Esther Perel to look at whether taking a break from a partner for a good amount of time can actually be the start of the next chapter or whether the need for space heralds the beginning of the end.

Unconventional Holidays For The Unconventional Traveller
Aussies have re-embraced travel with gusto since international borders reopened at the end of last year and Covid rules have been slowly eased over time. We are flying, cruising, touring, relaxing, adventuring and doing all the things we put off for those two locked down years. But there are also new holiday trends beginning to emerge and ones that were stifled during the pandemic coming back with a vengeance in 2022. Today we look at some new travel trends and some more unusual ways to spend your time on holiday. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!

Hormones, Weight Or Covid: What's Kicking Off Early Puberty?
It’s a right of passage for every young girl. The moment you get those first drops of blood and hopefully someone in your circle, or reading the right things on the internet, tells you about all the things you can use to keep your period leaking and ruining your outfit. It can be a time of pride, of shame, of worry and a sense of achievement. Now, the age at which puberty is hitting girls across the globe seems to be getting earlier and earlier... but why? Today, we look at the factors being investigated as the reason for early puberty and how it will impact those who do reach that milestone much younger than most.
