- 500 - The Woman Who Learnt To Walk Again…Twice
Kath Koschel had just achieved her dream of playing cricket professionally, when a terrible on-pitch injury meant she lost the use of her legs.
That was the beginning of a series of events that you truly have to hear to believe. But this isn't a story about tragedy. It about resilience, vulnerability and ultimately, kindness.
This is Kath Koschel's extraordinary story.
THE END BITS:
With thanks to Kath Koschel. Buy her book Kindness: What surviving on the kindness of strangers taught me about perspective, connection and happiness.

Sun, 19 Mar 2023 - 499 - Nikki Gemmell Doesn't Want To Have Sex Anymore
Listen to the rest of Mia's conversation with Nikki here...
A few weeks ago, an article in The Australian entitled ‘Sex? I’m Over It’ infiltrated the group chats of Gen X women all across the country.
In it, author Nikki Gemmell put into words a feeling that so many other women have felt at some point in their lives: I’m tired, I don’t want to have sex, and I just want my own bed.
20 years and 4 kids on from her groundbreaking erotic novel The Bride Stripped Bare, Nikki has some different thoughts about sex. Mainly, that she’s over it. And she just wants a good night’s sleep.
Nikki is honest, hilarious, and truly has no filter. This is her story.

When Australian Idol first graced our television screens 20 years ago, audiences fell in love with a 21 year old 'Millsy', a larrikin with blonde highlights, an eye brow piercing and an incredible voice.
In his personal life, however, Rob Mills relationship with alcohol, anxiety and the repression of his sexuality meant that life wasn't always smooth sailing.
But these days, Rob is an open book. He has a flourishing career in musical theatre, and has written a book about his life and what it means to be a man in Australia. From his problematic first film clip, to the moment that led him to throw a punch at someone (twice), and now finding love, Rob is unflinchingly honest and open.
This is Rob Mills' story.

Sun, 05 Mar 2023 - 497 - The One Thing We’ve Never Spoken About
Elfy Scott was thirteen when she came across some medication with her mum’s name on it. After Googling the name of it and seeing the words schizophrenia and psychosis, the ‘voices’ her mum often complained about hearing started to make sense.
Schizophrenia is not uncommon, but often completely misunderstood by the general public. Elfy is a journalist who has written a book about this topic, The One Thing We’ve Never Spoken About, and joins Mia on No Filter to discuss her own experiences with her mum’s schizophrenia, and whether the stigma around complex mental health issues can hold people back, even more so than the disorder itself.
This is Elfy and her mum’s story.

You might have heard the phrase ‘black out drunk’ before, which might evoke images of someone asleep or passed out. But that’s not what it is. Blacking out is when you’re conscious and walking around, but can’t remember anything afterwards. And that’s what has happened to journalist Sarah Hepola, dozens of times.
Drinking became a normal part of her life, like a lot of people; a social lubricant, a way to meet new people, and a party starter. But as the nights got more and more hazy, she realised she needed to make a change...

Sun, 11 Dec 2022 - 483 - Best Of 2022: Julia Haart’s Unorthodox Life: Part One
Find part two of Mia's conversation with Julia here.
Over the next three weeks we’ll be dropping the top three No Filter episodes of the year into your feed, alongside our usual brand new episodes. We’ve loved making them for you and hoping you’ve enjoyed listening. Thank you for your support this year, especially if you’re a Mamamia subscriber, and we can’t wait to tell more stories in 2023.
Until she was 40, every aspect of Julia Haart’s life, was tightly, tightly controlled. What she ate, what she thought, what she wore, and what she was allowed to do in a day. Julia was part of an ultra-Orthodox community in New York – a type of extreme form of religion called Haredi Judaism.
But, after having 4 kids, Julia decided to escape.Before we jump in, just a quick note - and some context.
It’s important to bear in mind that these are Julia’s personal experiences. They do not speak for the many and varied experiences of all Jewish women - Orthodox, Ultra-Orthodox, or otherwise.
And on those terms - ‘Orthodox’ and ‘Ultra-Orthodox’ - while we use them interchangeably, it’s important to note that actually, Julia’s experience is within an Ultra-Orthodox community of Monsey, New York. This is just one niche sect in a spectrum of many, each with varying customs.
This is part one of her story…

She was an innocent Australian stuck in a foreign prison...with no way of getting home. Kylie’s story about her imprisonment, and what happened after she was finally released is unbelievable. Except it really happened.

Sun, 14 Aug 2022 - 462 - Olivia Newton John: Hopelessly Devoted To You
When Olivia Newton-John walked out of the lift and into the Mamamia office in 2018 on a Wednesday morning, she was fragile but somehow full of energy at the same time.
She glowed. She was naturally curious, effervescent, and exuded extremely warm energy.
It’s hard to think of a more iconic Australian nor one more beloved.
Olivia Newton-John passed away this morning at 73, to remember her, we’re resharing her No Filter with Mia…

Sun, 07 Aug 2022 - 460 - Julia Haart’s Unorthodox Life: Part One
Find part two of Mia's conversation with Julia here.
Until she was 40, every aspect of Julia Haart’s life, was tightly, tightly controlled. What she ate, what she thought, what she wore, and what she was allowed to do in a day. Julia was part of an ultra-Orthodox community in New York – a type of extreme form of religion called Haredi Judaism.
But, after having 4 kids, Julia decided to escape.Before we jump in, just a quick note - and some context.
It’s important to bear in mind that these are Julia’s personal experiences. They do not speak for the many and varied experiences of all Jewish women - Orthodox, Ultra-Orthodox, or otherwise.
And on those terms - ‘Orthodox’ and ‘Ultra-Orthodox’ - while we use them interchangeably, it’s important to note that actually, Julia’s experience is within an Ultra-Orthodox community of Monsey, New York. This is just one niche sect in a spectrum of many, each with varying customs.
This is part one of her story…

Sun, 31 Jul 2022 - 459 - Tracey Spicer’s Life With Long Covid
Three years ago, Tracey was named the NSW Premier’s Woman of the Year, accepted the Sydney Peace Prize alongside Tarana Burke for the Me Too Movement, and won the national award for Excellence in Women’s Leadership through Women and Leadership Australia. Today, most of Tracey’s days are spent at doctors appointments.
She’s a multiple Walkley Award winning author and broadcaster who has anchored programs all over Australia. We’re sure she didn’t imagine that in July 2022 she’d be on No Filter, speaking about how she became one of the unlucky ones: a sufferer of the dreaded Long Covid.
Long Covid means your symptoms have persisted for longer than 12 weeks after initial infection. What’s interesting though, is that there might be new symptoms. You could feel like you’re actually getting sick with something else entirely. And for some, their condition continues to deteriorate.
Tracey has been sick for 204 days. And here’s what she thinks you should know.

Wed, 20 Jul 2022 - 457 - Kelly McCarren Never Thought Motherhood Would Be Like This
Want more with Kelly? Find her extra No Filter episode here.
You might know Kelly McCarren as one of the hosts of Mamamia’s You Beauty podcast. She’s well known for being candid and vulnerable about her life on her social media accounts, speaking about her boob job, her nose job, hating her wedding, gender disappointment in pregnancy and her mental health. But when Kelly started sharing the toll of what being a new mother really looks and feels like on her social media, she was universally applauded. She made other parents feel seen.
So, Mia asked her on the podcast to talk about the things we don’t often talk about - the moments in life where we don’t think any other woman has been before, and how Kelly is sharing the realities of being a new parent. Both the overflow of love and the overwhelm of trying to figure out what to do with a screaming baby.

Kate, the Chief Investigative Reporter at the Sydney Morning Herald, has spent her career breaking news about fraud, corruption, and more. So what looked like a fairly standard missing person’s case to the average person, looked like a lot more to Kate McClymont.
And when a human foot washed up on a South Coast beach months later? A whole other line of investigation opened into what actually happened to Melissa Caddick.
Kate is a co-host of a podcast called Liar Liar that’s all about this case, and in her signature forensic style, she’s uncovered a bunch of disturbing, astonishing information about the life and disappearance of a wealthy woman who wasn’t at all what she seemed.

Australia has woken up to a new Prime Minister: Anthony Albanese. So who is he? What's his story? At the end of 2021, Anthony Albanese sat down with Mia Freedman for this episode of No Filter. So we thought we'd pop it back in your feed so you could get to know our new PM...
As a teen, Anthony Albanese sat down with his mother for dinner. It was just the two of them, as it always had been. Albanese’s father had died in a car crash before he was born. Or at least, that’s what he thought until that dinner. His mother told him his father was most likely alive and living in Italy...
In this episode of No Filter, Anthony Albanese joins Mia to talk about his very unique childhood and the surprising way his search for his father turned out.

Sat, 21 May 2022 - 446 - The Day Renee Found Out Her Father Was A Murderer
Growing up, Renee McBryde thought she had an ordinary life. She was raised by a young, single mum in Sydney, spent time with her grandparents every weekend, and her dad wasn’t around - in fact she’d never met him but they spoke on the phone every week.
It was during one of those phone calls, on an ordinary Saturday night, that Renee would suddenly realise that her family was not in fact ordinary. They had secrets that spanned generations and trapped Renee, and her family in a cycle of trauma.

So how can we make sense of it?
In this episode, organisational psychologist Adam Grant will try to help us understand how the world can work smarter and better with these new cards we’ve been dealt.

Sun, 06 Mar 2022 - 434 - What’s A Woman Over 40 Meant To Look Like In 2022?
It’s a confusing time to work out what a woman over 40 is supposed to look like. Last week, two magazine covers were released. One with 56yo former supermodel Linda Evangelista showing how she’d been ‘disfigured’ by cosmetic surgery that was meant to make her look younger and thinner and one with Oscar nominee Nicole Kidman dressed like a schoolgirl. No wonder we’re confused. You can see both covers here.
Which is why this week on No Filter, Mia is joined by former Editor-in-Chief of Vogue Australia and author, Kirstie Clements, to talk about the perplexing business of women getting older.
And just a note, this is not a conversation about women looking ‘good’ for their age - and it’s not about shaming women. It’s a respectful conversation where two women in their 50s try to make sense of the mixed messages we’re getting from popular culture…

Sun, 27 Feb 2022 - 433 - My Sister's Secrets
Sometimes really bad things happen in families. Things that aren’t spoken about. Things that are covered up to protect adults….at the expense of children. But sometimes, decades later, when those children grow up, they make the courageous, difficult decision to speak up, even if there is enormous pressure from within their family and community to stay silent. Virginia Tapscott is one of those children who grew up and spoke out, after the death of her beloved older sister Ally Tapp who was abused by not just one trusted male relative but two.
This is the story of Virginia and Ally.
A heads up, this podcast deals with sexual assault and child sexual assault. If you need help please call 1800 Respect.

Sun, 13 Feb 2022 - 431 - Stolen Focus: Why You Can’t Pay Attention
Want more from Johann? Listen to the rest of his chat with Mia here
Does your brain feel a bit like a marshmallow lately? Do you find it hard to concentrate? Do you pick up your phone only to find that an hour has passed and you’re down some obscure rabbit hole that’s landed you on the Facebook page of your high school English teacher and you’ve forgotten why you picked up your phone in the first place? You're not alone.
It has been SO HARD to focus lately. So hard to hold our attention for longer than a goldfish can. Is it COVID? Is it technology? And….is it our fault?
If you ask Mia's guest today, Johann Hari, author of the best-selling book Stolen Focus - he’ll tell you it’s not. Because we haven’t lost our focus… it’s not like something we misplaced. Our focus has deliberately been stolen from us.
And this is how to get it back.

Sun, 30 Jan 2022 - 428 - Rhoda Roberts: “Now Is The Time To Awaken Those Sleeping Spirits”
This week on No Filter, we’re proud to introduce Narelda Jacobs as our guest host.
Rhoda Roberts is one of the most influential Australians there is. She’s a nurse, a journalist, broadcaster, actor, producer, writer, art advisor, and artistic director. And she’s responsible for a lot of huge cultural moments in this country. From the Awakening ceremony during the opening ceremony of the Sydney Olympics to coining the phrase welcome to country.
But she’s also been through a lot. In 1972 she watched her father Frank Roberts Jnr be introduced by Gough Whitlam at the Tent Embassy on the grounds of Old Parliament House in Canberra, to talk about land rights. In 1979, while training to be a nurse in Lismore, the matron at the hospital told her to go home, because she was just going to get pregnant like the other girls. Of course, Aunty Rhoda persisted. In 1999, Aunty Rhoda and her family went through the most heinous of tragedies when her twin sister Lois was found murdered. A crime that is still to this day unsolved.
On this episode of No Filter Rhoda sits down with guest host Narelda Jacobs to talk about her life…

Sun, 16 Jan 2022 - 426 - How Matthew Reilly Came Back To Life
Just a heads-up, this interview touches on the themes of suicide. If you need help call Lifeline on 13 11 14.
Matthew Reilly lives a very strange life. He’s the first one to admit it. He spends most of it sitting in a nice room in a nice house creating elaborate action-adventure worlds that don’t exist…and he’s paid millions of dollars to do it. In 1996 at the age of 22, Matthew got a bank loan, self-published 1,000 copies of his book, Contest, and convinced bookshops around Sydney to stock it.
25 years later, Matthew has now written 19 novels and sold more than 8 million copies worldwide. If only his personal life had been similarly golden. It hasn’t.
On this episode of No Filter, he joins me to talk about life and love after loss.

Sun, 02 Jan 2022 - 424 - The Unexpected Moment That Ended Lauren Jackson’s Basketball Career
It was February 2016, and Australian Basketball legend Lauren Jackson was looking down the barrel of her fifth Olympic Games in Rio.
Lauren was already an icon as one of the best basketballers in the world. Having played professionally in America for most of her career. She’d injured her knee in 2015 - a common job hazard for professional basketballers - and was in recovery. But she was hopeful she’d get to play at one more Olympics.
And then, Lauren did something millions of women do every day. She went and got her legs waxed, and it was the catalyst that forced her into retirement at 34...

Sun, 26 Dec 2021 - 423 - The Empty Chairs At The Christmas Table
Christmas is often referred to as the most wonderful time of the year. It’s a day that's meant to be filled with joy and love. But what if you're not feeling joyful because you're missing a loved one or you're dealing with the end of a significant relationship? How do you face the empty chair at the Christmas table?
Petrea King is one of the most respected grief counselors in the country. She’s counseled over 120,000 people living with cancer and other life-challenging illnesses as well as people dealing with grief, loss, trauma, and tragedy through her foundation, Quest For Life.
She knows what’s it’s like to be facing Christmas with a death, diagnosis or divorce looming after she lost her brother to suicide, and received her own diagnosis of a rare form of leukemia.
So what's her advice on how to navigate Christmas when you're not feeling joyful?

Fri, 24 Dec 2021 - 422 - Sharon Johal Is Stronger Than She Thought
Just a heads-up - this episode covers the difficult and emotional topic of miscarriage.
If you’re a fan of the Aussie TV show Neighbours, then you’ve definitely seen Sharon Johal on your television. She played the character of Dipi Rebecchi from 2017 to early in 2021. Landing this gig as a series regular was groundbreaking - she was the first Indian Punjabi woman in a mainstream television role.
But her experience on Neighbours? Well, it was tougher than she could have possibly imagined. In 2020, there was COVID, she was stuck in a toxic work environment and...she fell unexpectedly pregnant, and then she lost her baby. This is a story about grit, determination and authenticity. You’re going to love getting to know Sharon Johal.

Sun, 19 Dec 2021 - 421 - The Private Life Of Anthony Albanese
As a teen, Anthony Albanese sat down with his mother for dinner. It was just the two of them, as it always had been. Albanese’s father had died in a car crash before he was born. Or at least, that’s what he thought until that dinner. His mother told him his father was most likely alive and living in Italy...
In this episode of No Filter, Anthony Albanese joins Mia to talk about his very unique childhood and the surprising way his search for his father turned out.
And just a note, Anthony Albanese may be the Leader of the Opposition. But this episode of No Filter is not about politics.

If you’d looked at Phoebe Burgess’ Instagram account three or four years ago, chances are you would have seen a happy family smiling back at you. Phoebe; a former magazine journalist, her husband, Sam Burgess; the famous NRL player, and a growing baby bump going on family holidays to Hamilton Island, Fiji, and coastal NSW. They had a beautiful home. Fame. Wealth. It was the ultimate highlight reel. But only a few people knew that those family holidays weren’t exactly what they appeared to be. A tiny handful of individuals in and around the football club were the only ones privy to all the things that had to be kept quiet. But now, Phoebe Burgess has found her voice, and is ready to talk...

Over the past two decades, Kate Langbroek's life has changed dramatically. Some of that change has been because of choices she’s made - like having 4 kids in 5 years, or deciding to quit her high profile, massively well-paid radio job alongside Dave “Hughesy” Hughes to move to Italy...in the midst of a global pandemic.
But other things that have thrown her world into chaos have been things that blindsided her. On this episode of No Filter, she opens up about all of it.

Amani Haydar was five months pregnant and excitedly preparing to become a mother for the first time. But on an ordinary day, Amani’s life changed to a degree she never thought possible. She answered a phone call that sliced everything she thought she knew about her parents, about relationships, about marriage, about love and about her own future - into two very different parts: before and after.
Amani has since written a book about her experience called The Mother Wound, and she joins Mia now to share her powerful story.

Sun, 17 Oct 2021 - 410 - The Private Life Of Emma Wiggle
Emma Watkins grew up wanting to be a ballerina. She’d watched dancers all her life on the TV, and on The Wiggles. But then she got injured, and that dream? Well, it went out the window.
So she went in search of something more, and little did she know that something more would see her become the first female Wiggle.
On this episode of No Filter we talk about everything from the backlash she faced at the announcement, her Endometriosis diagnosis, and what it’s really like to be one of the most recognised children’s entertainers in the country, and in fact...the world.

Sun, 10 Oct 2021 - 409 - The Baby Catcher
Caroline de Costa started studying medicine at Sydney University when she was just 16 years old, after a few years off and a baby in between, Caroline finished her medical degree in 1973. She decided she wanted to major in Obstetrics and Gynecology, but she wasn’t allowed. They wouldn’t let her…because it wasn’t a woman’s field. (Yes, that happened)
So Caroline packed her bags, her family, and headed for Ireland where they would train her. Seven children, 15 books and almost 50 years later, Caroline is one of Australia’s biggest medical trailblazers, and the first woman ever to become a professor of obstetrics and gynecology in Australia. She has a LOT of stories about birth and women’s bodies and she shares them on this episode of No Filter...

Sun, 03 Oct 2021 - 408 - The Day Stuart Diver Decided To Live
It was an ordinary day on the 30th of July, 1997 in Thredbo, but at 11:35pm the earth moved. Lives were changed and lost in just a few minutes. The Thredbo Landslide happened fast. It hit two ski lodges where 19 people were sleeping. It destroyed the buildings, ripped them off their foundations, and plunged those inside under tonnes of debris and concrete.
For the first two days, we were told that there would be no survivors. However, on the morning of the third day, 66 hours after he was buried, Stuart Diver was found alive. He was the lone survivor of one of the most famous tragedies in Australia’s history.

Thu, 23 Sep 2021 - 406 - Australia’s New Queen Of Breakfast TV
There’s a good reason why breakfast TV hosts are among the biggest celebrities in the country. It’s an intimate and long-term relationship. Lisa Millar is the host of Australia’s most popular breakfast show, ABC News Breakfast. She’s a Walkley Award-winning journalist who has covered some of the biggest news stories in the world, including terrorist attacks, mass shootings, and natural disasters.
When you’re doing three hours of live TV every day, unexpected things happen and you have to react instantly. You need to improvise and think on your feet. You can’t hide who you are when you’re streaming live on air for 15 hours every week, for years. But being a TV star is very new to Lisa - in ways that are both wonderful and incredibly difficult, even painful.

Sun, 12 Sep 2021 - 404 - “I Was Flying An American Airlines Plane On 9/11”: Beverley Bass’ Extraordinary Story
September 11 2001 is etched in the minds of people all over the world. It changed the way we lived and traveled, fundamentally. But, it also gave us the story of a little town in Canada that did some pretty extraordinary things in the face of terror. A story that has been turned into a musical called Come From Away. But before it was a Broadway smash, it was the story of Beverley Bass, American Airlines' first-ever female pilot. And on this 20th anniversary of September 11, Beverley joins me from Texas to share it...

Sun, 05 Sep 2021 - 402 - Living With Relationship OCD
Everyone has intrusive thoughts. But if you live with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder? Well, it becomes something much more extreme. You get stuck on your thoughts, and you can’t move past them. And you play those thoughts on a loop, like a broken record.
You’ve probably heard about OCD - although it’s widely misunderstood and misrepresented. But Relationship OCD is something you’ve probably never heard of. And it’s a type of mental ill-health that affects a surprising number of people.
On this episode of No Filter, Penny Moodie speaks very candidly, and vulnerably, about her experience with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and Relationship OCD.

Sun, 29 Aug 2021 - 401 - Everyone's Talking About Tony Armstrong
Tony Armstrong is the most talked-about new talent in the television industry right now. Everyone is talking about him. Every media company wanted to sign him. And if you don’t know who Tony is yet, you will soon.
Tony is a proud Barranbinya man. He was raised by a single mum in Sydney’s West, and he started playing AFL at a young age. He made it all the way to the top. Sort of.
He played for the Adelaide Crows, Sydney Swans and Collingwood, and after 7 years playing footy and only 35 games over that time, Tony walked away from AFL. He failed. And he’ll be the first person to tell you that.

Fri, 20 Aug 2021 - 399 - Pieces Of Britney With Pandora Sykes
The story of Britney Spears is one we’re guessing you’re familiar with. Child star from a small town makes it big in the city, only to grow up in front of the cameras, turn into a pop icon and then breaks down from the pressure and becomes tabloid fodder.

Pandora Sykes is a British journalist and the host of BBC4’s new audio documentary series, Pieces Of Britney. In this series, she pieces together what we know about her story, and what it tells us about sex, entertainment, and how we treat women in the public eye. And she joins Mia today to talk about it...
