Women Like Us - Mandy Nolan and Ellen Briggs

Mandy and Ellen, much loved Aussie comedians drill down into the every day things in their short series of podcasts. Seven Deadly Sins came first, then Setting The Table and now Love and Hate. They're not your average girls next door - in fact you'd probably move if they lived next door, but you would want to have a chat to them, and that's exactly what this podcast is - them having a chat....with you!

Coming In Hot Live Podcast!

Welcome to our first ever LIVE podcast recording - recorded at the beautiful Burringbar Hall. This one is coming in hot and it's all about menopause, perimenopause and all that goes along with it. We are joined by Senator Larissa Waters who chaired the enquiry that looked at how menopause and perimenopause affects women and families. We share our stories along with the stories of our wonderful audience members. It's different to our normal podcast but we think you'll love it.

Fierce, Fabulous, A little bit fat & 50 - Sexy Time

Okay, this one is NSFW or kids or anyone who is not going to like hearing two women in their fifties "talk about sex baby". We know you sung that bit.
