  • Not Everyone Loves Gem’s Bob
    Mar 16 2026

    Gem’s serving brand-new black cat energy thanks to a fresh bob, sharp, mysterious, and apparently… controversial. Not everyone is thrilled about the haircut, which sends us down a rabbit hole about body autonomy, relationships, and how much say (if any) our partners actually get over our appearance. Spoiler: opinions were shared. Meanwhile, Revz has a story about being left on “read” by an ex and the spiral is very real. The girls unpack the psychology of the read receipt, the temptation to double text, and why silence can feel so loud.

  • 🏠 Reno Diaries: Move In First or Reno First?
    Mar 10 2026

    Do you rip the house apart before you’ve even found the kettle… or move in, “live with it for a bit,” and slowly unravel as the to-do list multiplies? Gem and Revz compare the pair. The pros. The cons. The budget delusions. If you’re renovating, contemplating renovating, or traumatised by renovating, this one’s for you.

  • Gem’s Snake Encounter
    Mar 9 2026

    Gem’s still deep in her Formula 1 obsession and maybe Revz should join the club? Then: let’s talk phone etiquette, cos everyone’s too busy for pleasantries and we need to get to the point. Gem has returned from her Tassie hike and she is, allegedly, a changed woman. Of course, no reflective growth arc is complete without a near death experience. Gem retells the snake encounter, which naturally spirals into a broader discussion about Australia’s commitment to housing 97% of the world’s deadliest creatures. And finally, Revz gives heartfelt props to bone broth. You’re welcome DLs.

  • 🚨BREAKING🚨Jackie O has left the building
    Mar 4 2026

    Exactly as our oracle Lu predicted last week, Jackie ‘O’ Henderson has sensationally quit her $100 million contract with KIIS FM following an on-air blow-up with longtime co-host Kyle Sandilands. Naturally, we had to jump straight on the mics to urgently unpack the bombshell statement, share our predictions on what Kyle and Jackie might do next, what this means for the future of Australian radio, and discuss why - at its core - the abrupt end of this radio dynasty feels really quite sad. Will Kyle and Jackie O ever be mates again? Is it all the blood moon’s fault? And, most importantly… are the astrologers okay? 🌙🔮
