Mamamia Out Loud
Hosted by Mamamia Out Loud
Three Australian journalists dissect daily news, pop culture, and listener dilemmas in a fast-paced, opinionated format resembling a group chat.
A daily Australian news and culture podcast from the Mamamia women's media network. A rotating panel of hosts, typically three at a time, hold a roundtable discussion on trending topics, from royal family news and celebrity gossip to parenting debates and social phenomena like the demand for child-free spaces.
“Its key distinction is the daily cadence and the 'group chat' dynamic, with a rotating cast of hosts from the same media company creating a consistent but varied feel. The Australian focus provides a specific cultural lens on global pop culture, such as contrasting local school athletics carnivals with American traditions.”

Notable episodes

Features a scathing and emotional review of 'Toy Story 5', with hosts calling its anti-tech theme a 'gut punch' for modern parents, alongside a debate on child-free public spaces.
- 02The Tech Bro Who Said ‘Australia Aged Me 13 Years’
The hosts humorously discuss anti-aging billionaire Bryan Johnson's claim that a single flight to Australia aged him over a decade, using it as a jumping-off point for their own travel experiences.
- 03There's A Problem With The Aussie Cowboys Cheerleader
A classic example of the show's format, blending a listener's parenting dilemma about a school sports carnival with a discussion on the ethics of taking lemons from a neighbour's tree and the discovery of 'Letters to Heaven' postboxes.
What you'll be asked on this show
This is a co-hosted chat show and does not follow a traditional guest-interview format. The hosts interact with each other, debating topics and sharing personal stories. Questions are posed rhetorically to the group to initiate discussion, rather than to an external guest.
This is a co-hosted panel show, not a guest-interview format. Three hosts from a rotating cast discuss several topics per episode, using personal anecdotes and humor to relate to the subject matter. Segments are clearly defined, and the conversation is fast-paced and highly opinionated.
