I Pashed Robbie Williams But I Have No Proof
In a time before social media, before camera phones and before anyone could prove anything, one of us had a toilet-line kiss with Robbie Williams. And somehow, that is not even the funniest celebrity story in this episode. Sally says there is a childhood trend directly linked to her declining mental health. Mary once thought she was pregnant at eight years old. Bruna takes aim at the myth that wom
EXTRA: Mary Coustas Was 49 When She Became A Mum
You know Mary Coustas as one of Australia's funniest women: the brilliant mind behind the big-haired, iconic character Effie who has graced our screens and stage for over 30 years. But in this episode from the archives, we're bringing you a different side of Mary. In this No Filter conversation with Mia Freedman, Mary talks about her unfaltering desire to become a mother, the unimaginable loss of
The Rise of the Four Hour Husband
Have you heard the one about the wife who cares for everyone else.... but when she's sick she gets the four hour husband? Mary reckons it's all about love languages. Could Cath Mahoney be Australia's next Golden Bachelorette? Hollywood Producer Bruna Papandrea is on the case.

EXTRA: Bruna Papandrea on Hollywood, Lupus, and The Body Saying No
Does ambition die in midlife, or are we just getting started? And what happens when your drive is as strong as ever, but your body is screaming stop? You know Bruna Papandrea as an absolute powerhouse: a Hollywood super-producer who went from working-class Adelaide to becoming one of the most successful forces in Hollywood, bringing us massive hits like Big Little Lies and Gone Girl. Bu
The Flat Tyre Test And The Appointment Nobody Wants
One missing blazer has triggered a full time whatsapp group situation and Sally is over it. Bruna once went The Godfather on the kindergarten parents and has no regrets. Cath Mahoney never got a formal, never got a corsage, and is still a little bit heartbroken about the taffeta dress she never wore. Sally got a flat tyre and handed the whole mess to her men and felt great about it. Plus the eulog
EXTRA: Ginni Mansberg Says You're Not Going Mad
If you're a midlife woman - or live with someone who is - this episode is an absolute must-listen. We love Dr. Ginni Mansberg for her no-BS medical wisdom and her completely unfiltered take on women’s health. In this No Filter conversation with Mia Freedman, she strips back the clinical talk to get incredibly real about the chaotic reality of perimenopause and menopause - and the wild things
Never Look At A Married Man's Google Search
Mary accidentally glimpsed a married man's Google search and now she has to pretend to be blind for the rest of her life. Bruna has discovered boxing, and has the Rocky song in her head and a very specific enemy face on the bag. Sally admits she may have cheated at Wordle for family reasons. Cath's driving instructor kept a wooden ruler on his lap, which feels less like a lesson and more like a mi
EXTRA: Grace Lam Has An Idiot Allergy
For over 25 years Grace Lam lived inside the glossy world of fashion, including as a Vogue editor. Then hormones kicked down the door and blew up her life. In this MID conversation with Holly Wainwright, Grace gets incredibly real about what that identity crisis actually felt like, and how she went from the fashion front row to the Western Australian Senate, fighting for institutions to final
I Escaped a Wellness Retreat Before Breakfast
An expensive wellness retreat was booked. A quiet, nourishing reset was planned. But no TV and no phone? Bruna said..no thanks. Speaking of wellness, Mary claims she cured her warts with witchcraft, and Dr Ginni has some...scientific questions. Creatine is the midlife supplement we hear about more than any, so what does the good Doctor have to say? And how far would you go for your bestie? Because
EXTRA: How Sally Hepworth Survived Her Divorce
We love Sally Hepworth on the Unleashed couch for her razor-sharp wit and her hilarious, no-BS take on modern motherhood. Sally is one of Australia’s most successful, best-loved authors and her novels are regularly on top bestseller lists around the world. But in this No Filter conversation with Kate Langbroek, she strips back the bestseller glamour to share her most personal story yet - and
The Unexpected Dating Coach for Divorced Women. Seriously?
Sally called in from Melbourne to formally lodge a complaint against Cath's new dating coach. Mary invented a ball bra and pitched it to a Bonds designer.

Dr. Ginni invented a brilliant new business ide
EXTRA: Cath Mahoney & What Nobody Says About Getting Divorced

But in this episode from the archives, we're bringing you a different side of Cath. In this No Filter conversation with Mia Freedman, Cath talks about the end of her marriage, what it was like to go through divorce in public, and the strange identity cris
That 6:37am Text & Lam’s Tram Takeover
Just when we thought we couldn't love Kylie Minogue any more, she gave a masterclass in how to handle your ex, and we're obsessed. Grace is handing out shower caps to strangers on public transport like it's her actual job. Meanwhile, Cath has been running her entire dating life through an AI chatbot for advice, then Dr. Ginni broke everyone's heart talking about her grandchildren, who are impossib
I Made A Woo Woo Deal With The Universe... And It Answered
Sally's gone woo woo and we're here for it. Cath went on a very promising date but the next step split the group chat. Should she she text him? Should she be a beautiful, elusive deer? Or is she simply a Labrador in need of love, reassurance and maybe a Spotify playlist? Also this week: Grace gives a stranger on a plane a tissue, Mary reminds us why showing up for your friends’ good news is
My Husband Retired And I've Never Hated Anyone More
Janet works from home. Her husband just retired. He lurks. He breathes. He wants to eat lunch together every single day. She needs him to f**k off and she needs the girls to tell her she's not a monster for feeling that way. Also this week: Cath has been stalking a stolen pair of AirPods around Sydney for three weeks like a one-woman Magnum PI. Bruna got on a plane to LA she knew she shouldn't, cr
Grace Found An Intruder At 3am. She Did Not Wake Her Husband
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
'Dating After Divorce, How Do You Get Back On The Horse?'
What's the most revealing question to ask someone when you're dating again? A newly single Unleasher needs advice, and Sally Hepworth swears she’s got the answer. Maybe don't take advice from Cath though; she asked a man for his exact time and place of birth so she could run his star chart. He blocked her. Also in this episode, Mary got pulled over by the cops and tried to make them laugh to
'I Turned Down Anna Wintour And I'd Do It Again'
Grace sent a vicious bitch session about her assistant… directly to the assistant. Then crawled out of the office on all fours. Cath sent a spicy message to an entire WhatsApp group of under-11 soccer parents and is still avoiding eye contact at training. Ginny proposed hardcore sex on the family chat, sandwiched between her mother-in-law's prayer messages. And Mary accidentally told a busi
'I Met Meghan Markle And I Looked Like A Tree'
Bruna met Meghan Markle straight off a long-haul flight and now the photos will never see the light of day. Cath nearly wore sneakers to the event and had to be stopped by an emergency Grace Lam FaceTime. Mary once met George Clooney, thankfully with zero boogers in her nose. And remember when stalking someone pre-Google was an act of creativity and persistence? Because Mia was calling Japanese re
'I Wake Up At 3am And Spiral... Every Night'
Grace micromanaged her birthday and cancelled sex for a car race. Cath once masturbated on the freeway. Mary received a Valentine’s Day card with a pube in it, and Dr Ginni knows why you're awake and spiralling at 3am. And is there a mystery in your life you're yet to solve? Because Cath lined up a date who disappeared in suspicious medical circumstances. We have theories. In your ears today
'The Bikini Wax That Did Not Go According To Plan'
Cath booked a wax...and it did not go to plan. Sally had a case of celebrity mistaken identity. Mary told a driver to get f**cked and it turned out to be her own mother, and Bruna accidentally did a little wee in a designer dress (and then had to buy it). And how was your first kiss? Because these women absolutely butchered theirs.In your ears today: Sally Hepworth, Mary Coustas, Bruna Papandrea a
'The Post-Divorce Ick'
Cath is back on the dating scene and the icks are immediate. From men with necklaces, to gym selfies, and those who won't ask a single question, she's compiled a list of what makes a man instantly undateable. Meanwhile, Sally wants to talk about the towel system in your house. Are you a towel dictator, or is it a free-for-all? And why are all the midlife women putting vaginal oestrogen on their fa
'I Think I’ve Outgrown My Husband... Now What?'
What happens when your life - and marriage - looks fine on paper....but you feel like you've outgrown it? That's the very real problem we're Unleashing on this week. Meanwhile, the 90's nearly killed us. Bruna used be a full-blown party girl (including near-death experiences), but now she’s in bed by 9pm. Mary dreams of long, late European dinners but even she's leaving the children's
'Mum's Discovered Sex And I Cannot Un-Know The Things'
Camping? Meditation? Marathons?! Absolutely not. Mary Coustas is calling for the Unleashed anti-bucket list - the things we are officially opting out of for life. Meanwhile, Sally ticks off a major life milestone… and with it comes a deeply unsettling realisation: she is the adult now. Plus, the time Bruna got fired as a bridesmaid, and Mary got sacked for standing her Greek ground. And in
Bruna Went To The Oscars and She's Got Gossip
She's just got off a plane from the Oscars so yeah, we have questions. What’s it actually like inside the Academy Awards? In this special bonus episode, Bruna Papandrea tells us everything: from the red carpet to the toilets, the snack boxes, and some deeply weird behaviour during "In Memoriam." We revel in the glamour! The showbiz! The stars! And then Bruna reveals the devastating trut
'Be Honest - What Do You Do To Your Face, Grace?'
At some point you look in the mirror and realise gravity has come for your face. Bruna's pretty miffed no one warned her. Meanwhile, should you be with one person for the rest of your life? Because Grace has some ground rules - like if her husband replaces her, she'll come back as a ghost and haunt his d*ck. And what did you get up to to when your parents weren't looking? Sally stole a librar
'I'm Going To The Oscars And I Might Even Shower'
A ticket to the Oscars, a real estate agent gone wrong, and an emotional cup of tea.Bruna casually prepares to go to the Oscars. Meanwhile at home, Ginni has beef with people that take their shoes off in houses. Grace has some feedback for a real-estate agent, and Cath pays $140 to drink a cup of tea, sit in a circle and cry with strangers. Then we remember the first concert we went to - with a su
'Friendship Is The Affair Your Husband Knows You're Having'
How many psychics is too many psychics? Cath has reached the point where she needs a Chat GPT spreadsheet to track them all. Mary confirms - with evidence - that her mother has never given a blowjob. Bruna joins a wellness cult called 75 Hard, but she still can’t find time for a shower. Grace’s clairvoyant spat water all over her to exorcise a ghost. Sadly, it didn't work for Bruna whe
'I Look Forward to General Anaesthetic'

Cath accidentally joined up on a BDSM dating app, and decides her ‘slave’ Barry should be put to work around the house. Dr Ginni breaks the news that women are medically, literally, full of shit.

So, What’s This Show All About?
The antidote to the bin-fire of right now. Forget inspirational life coach energy. Forget toxic positivity. This is the show for the woman who is tired of being a human doormat, sick of being told to get in the bin, and currently eating her body weight in Greek yogurt because someone on Instagram said protein is the answer and honestly...to what? From the brain (and slightly unhinged vision
