On this episode of the Stellar podcast, Pia sits down with content director Nicholas Fonseca to discuss what it would take for her to return to her most famous role, the sexism and death threats she faced after winning Australian Survivor: Champions V Contenders, and what it was like to go public with her story of the time Greta Scacchi stopped her boarding a private jet with Harvey Weinstein. Plus, Pia explains why she loves raising teenagers and reveals the advice she gives her 16-year-old daughter, who has dreams of pursuing an acting career like her mum.

Sat, 06 Jun 2026 - 285 - Chrissie Swan’s second (and last) podcast interview
Chrissie Swan doesn’t do many interviews. “I’m like Halley’s Comet,” she jokes of the astrological phenomenon that only appears every 75 years or so. Now, Chrissie is orbiting back to the other side of the microphone, a place she readily admits she doesn't tend to be.
This week on Something To Talk About, Chrissie reflects on the headlines she refuses to let define her, and how she walks the careful line between sharing her life publicly and protecting her children privately. She also discusses leaving breakfast radio, giving up alcohol, co-parenting teenagers, and why uncovering generations of rebellious women and family tragedy on her upcoming episode of SBS’ Who Do You Think You Are? ultimately changed the way she sees herself.

Dr Chris Brown is a man who doesn't stay still for long. Since moving networks from Ten to Seven three years ago, the former Bondi Vet, I'm A Celeb and Dancing With The Stars host is back front and centre to launch two new projects that have taken him across Australia and around the globe, leaving him with what he calls a “very healthy” relationship with his frequent flyer account.
And after years of interest and speculation about his love life, that’s not the only relationship Dr Chris opens up about in this conversation. He tells us what it has been like to have fathered nine babies and been married seven times – at least according to the celebrity rumour mill – and explains how he is, indeed, currently in relationship with a woman who “just gets it”.
Chris also reveals the challenges of hosting a renovation show when you’re a colourblind vet, how his mother’s 13 year journey with Alzheimer’s has shaped how he approaches his day-to-day life, and tells the wild story of how he unexpectedly found himself getting charged by a herd of “cocaine hippos” in rural Colombia.

Sat, 18 Apr 2026 - 278 - Lisa Wilkinson breaks her silence
Across more than four decades as a journalist and television presenter, Lisa Wilkinson has told plenty of compelling stories. But in the past five years, she has spent more time making headlines than reading them.
Now, Lisa sits down for her first interview in more than four years to unpack the personal toll of the legal battles that have consumed her life since June 2022, and discuss the unlikely project she threw herself into during that tumultuous time: a new book she has written about a woman named Evelyn Marsden, the only Australian-born survivor of the Titanic disaster.
In this episode of the Stellar podcast, Lisa opens up about how digging into Evelyn’s life story helped her put the adversities she was facing into perspective. She also answers the question: would she have done anything differently in the five years since her headline-making interview with Brittany Higgins went to air on The Project? Plus: Lisa sets the record straight about her departure from that show in November 2022.
Lisa’s new book, The Titanic Story Of Evelyn, is on sale from Tuesday, April 14.

Sun, 05 Apr 2026 - 276 - Twenty years after Idol, Jessica Mauboy can’t forget the body shaming
When a 16-year-old Jessica Mauboy stood on a makeshift stage in the middle of the desert for her Australian Idol audition, she was just a shy kid from Darwin with a massive voice. Within a few years, she was catapulted from the Top End to the top of the charts.
Earlier this year, Jessica returned to the Australian Idol stage – this time as a mentor, stepping in to fill Kyle Sandilands’ empty chair. But she hasn't forgotten the hurdles she faced or the comments about her body, which she now sees through an entirely different lens.
In this episode of the Stellar podcast, she explains how Kyle’s bluntness helped her develop thick skin at a young age, what was behind her decision to leave her long-time record label and become her own "boss lady", and how her husband Themeli Magriplis and their 14-month-old daughter Mia keep her grounded through it all.

Sat, 28 Mar 2026 - 275 - Amber Sherlock thinks TV still isn’t ready for women over 50
In November last year, newsreader and weather presenter Amber Sherlock was let go from her role at the Nine Network, an announcement that made headlines and had paparazzi camped outside her house.
Suddenly, after almost 20 years at the network, Amber found herself without the security of a full-time job, only three weeks ahead of her 50th birthday.
Now, she is looking towards the future and establishing her next step in a rapidly changing media landscape – and an industry she believes still treats men and women very differently.
On this episode of the Stellar podcast, Amber talks for the first time about her shock departure from a job she thought was safe, how she feels about #jacketgate 10 years on and, given this is the first time she hasn't worked in her adult life, the benefits of no longer being a “shift worker”.

Sat, 21 Mar 2026 - 274 - Melanie C on sexism, ageism and the Spice Girls’ group chats
Thirty years ago this July, a catchy song called ‘Wannabe’, sung by a then-unknown pop group called the Spice Girls, hit radio airwaves – and a global phenomenon was born.
For Melanie C, who was just 22 at the time and one-fifth of the group that brought “girl power” to a new generation, the sudden blast of “Spice mania” was intoxicating, intimidating and ultimately short-lived.
Three decades later, Melanie is a successful solo artist who has also found her groove touring the world as a DJ, she is a coach on The Voice Australia, and she remains close to all of her former bandmates.
On this episode of the Stellar podcast, Melanie opens up about what really goes on in group chats with her fellow Spice Girls, explains how her upcoming album and world tour hark back to her early days as a raver, and explains how finding love with an Australian helped her grow more comfortable with work/life balance. Plus, she answers the eternal question: could the Spice Girls someday make their way here for their first-ever Australian shows?

On December 20, five days before Christmas, Tanya’s long-awaited first child, a baby girl named Scottie – whose full name is Scotland Jack Poole – was born and she was thrust into the beautiful chaos of new motherhood, while dealing with the surreal realisation that she was finally holding her baby in her arms.
In this episode of the Stellar podcast, Tanya shares the meaning behind her daughter’s unconventional name, explains why she waited so long to announce her pregnancy, and reflects on the complex feelings she is grappling with now that her dream of becoming a mother has finally come true.
Tanya's new children's book Sunny And Storm (Penguin, $14.99) is out March 3 and available to pre-order now.

Sat, 21 Feb 2026 - 270 - Ash Brewer on baby news, sobriety and why she’s ready to talk about her eating disorder
You might know her as Ivy Forrester on The Bold And The Beautiful, the long-running soap opera that has been broadcast around the world for nearly 40 years. That role marked Ashleigh Brewer’s breakout in the US, after she first came to notice working in Australian children’s shows like The Sleepover Club and H20: Just Add Water, before joining the cast of Neighbours at the age of 18.
But as you’ll hear in this episode of the Stellar podcast, at 35, Ash has lived just as many lives as a character on a soap opera. Last December, she got married, and as she reveals for the first time in this interview, she is entering her third trimester as she prepares to welcome her first baby. All this has coincided with a time when Ash has never felt more comfortable in her own body, because as she also explains, she struggled with an eating disorder for several years.
Candid, raw and reflective, Ash also opens up on how she pulled together her low-key, no-fuss wedding day in just nine days, why sobriety was a key part of her recovery, and how how finding support from a strong circle of fellow Aussie expats and actors including Phoebe Tonkin, Samara Weaving and her one-time housemate and Neighbours co-star Margot Robbie helped her to heal.

Sarah Abo was just four years old when her parents moved her and her younger sisters from Syria to Australia in search of a better life.

When Sarah Davidson last joined Something To Talk About in 2023, she was in the midst of one of life’s hardest chapters – navigating pregnancy loss, uncertainty and hope. It was a raw and deeply human conversation that resonated with so many of our listeners. A year later, Sarah’s story took a beautiful turn. In 2024, she and her husband Nic welcomed their son, Teddy – and just a few months later, she appeared on Stellar’s Mother’s Day cover, cradling him in her arms.

It’s been a month since actor Miranda Tapsell gave birth to her son Vincent, adding to an already busy household that also includes her husband James and their three-year-old daughter Grace.

Sat, 23 Aug 2025 - 242 - Natalie Barr just set a breakfast TV record. But she isn't boasting about it
As the woman who’s been dubbed “breakfast TV’s greatest survivor”, Natalie Barr has woken up with the nation for more than two decades — all while building a life with her husband and raising two sons. Yet she insists she’s far more interested in what’s coming up on next week’s Sunrise than in celebrating milestones or reflecting on just how far she’s come.
In this episode, Nat takes a rare moment to look back — on the highs and lows of a stable, successful marriage and a long-running media career, and on how she’s adjusting to life as an empty nester. Plus, she opens up on the unique partnership she’s built with her work husband, Matt Shirvington - and shares an update on a few of her former on-air co-hosts including David Koch and Samantha Armytage.
Watch the full episode with Nat here.
You can see Nat weekdays on Sunrise on the Seven Network.

She shares what was in the 64-page dossier, how it has changed her relationship with the internet, and why she’s finally drawing the line.

On today’s episode, Erin announces her new career move with a US-based media platform. She also opens up about the real story behind those high-profile job losses, why she’s not planning on manifesting a man anytime soon – and the heartbreaking reason she doesn’t see a wedding in her future.

Sat, 02 Aug 2025 - 239 - Glennon Doyle on body image, resilience - and that Ivanka Trump post
When Glennon Doyle was diagnosed with anorexia in her 40s, her wife Abby was grieving the sudden death of her brother, and her sister Amanda had just been diagnosed with breast cancer. It was a year that brought all three of them to their knees — and became the unlikely foundation for their new book, We Can Do Hard Things. In this episode, Glennon opens up about what it means to keep showing up when the people you usually rely on are struggling, too.
We talk about the power of friendship, the myth of having it all together, and the moment Glennon stopped hiding her illness — even on the red carpet. She reflects on visibility, activism, and why the most honest people often feel like the biggest messes. And for the first time, Glennon reveals how she felt when she saw Ivanka Trump holding a copy of her book Untamed in an Instagram post. Raw, wise and unexpectedly funny – just like this conversation is a reminder that none of us are doing this alone.
Glennon’s new book We Can Do Hard Things is available here.

Sat, 26 Jul 2025 - 238 - Six months on, axed Today star Alex Cullen is ready to talk
This week, Sarrah sits down with Alex Cullen for his first interview since the controversial “Lambo guy” incident that resulted in his departure from Today and Nine Network — as he exclusively reveals his plans for the future.
In January, after he took up an offer from Melbourne-based billionaire Adrian Portelli, Alex found himself in the middle of a media storm that sparked national headlines.
Now, in a raw and reflective conversation, he opens up about the personal and professional fallout, the toll it took on his mental health, and how close he came to walking away from the industry altogether. He talks about starting over — with a big move to Melbourne for him and his family, a new radio role on The Christian O’Connell Show, and in a Stellar exclusive, the announcement of his return to TV with Seven News. This is a story about public fallout, private resilience, and what it takes to start again… when the whole country is watching.
Alex begins tomorrow on The Christian O'Connell Show weekdays from 6am and weeknights from 7PM on GOLD104.3

Sat, 19 Jul 2025 - 237 - Everyone knew Laura Byrne was pregnant… except Matty J
It’s easy to be sceptical about reality TV romances. But sometimes, they just work. Take Laura Byrne and Matty J, who met and fell in love on The Bachelor Australia in 2017 – and are now one of the country’s most popular couples. In this episode of Something To Talk About, Laura and Matty sit down just weeks out from welcoming their third child to discuss – with humour, honesty and, yes, a bit of exhaustion – how they are revamping traditional gender roles as they raise their young family.
Laura explains what it’s like being the primary breadwinner, and Matty opens up about modern fatherhood and – with a third daughter on the way – the reality that he may never raise the son he always envisaged he would have. From baby name slip-ups to beach house renos, this is a surprisingly moving conversation with two people who are doing marriage and family their own way.Hear more from Laura on her podcast Life Uncut, and Matty J on his podcast Two Doting Dads, wherever you get your podcasts

Sat, 28 Jun 2025 - 234 - Billion dollar woman: how MCOBeauty's Shelley Sullivan built a beauty empire
Australia’s biggest beauty mogul, Shelley Sullivan, has built three powerhouse businesses from the ground up. At just 21, she launched a boutique modelling agency. While working with models, Shelley spotted beauty fails like DIY lash-curling burns and patchy self‑tans – which led to her first beauty innovation: a heated lash curler, then “tan‑in‑a‑can”, and the birth of her first brand, ModelCo.
In 2016, Shelley targeted another gap: luxe-looking beauty at mass-market prices. MCoBeauty launched with 12 products, scaled to hundreds, and earlier this year was sold in a deal valuing the company at $1 billion.
In this episode of Something To Talk About, Shelley opens up about building – and exiting – a billion-dollar beauty empire, trusting her instincts amid doubt, and life after the headlines.

Sat, 21 Jun 2025 - 233 - The morning workout that got Laura Henshaw pregnant
This week on Something To Talk About, Laura Henshaw joins Sarrah Le Marquand for a powerful and deeply personal conversation, as she celebrates and talks about her just-announced pregnancy. It was, as Laura says, “a complete shock” that came after a year of questioning whether motherhood was even right for her.
Today, Laura reflects on the fears she worked through as she grappled with whether becoming a parent would mean losing her sense of identity, the emotional moment she shared the news with her business partner Steph Claire Smith, and the unsolicited commentary she’s received about her body along the way. Plus, Laura speaks out on the rise of “manosphere” content online and why she felt compelled to challenge a podcaster who she believes was promoting outdated gender roles – a decision that would take her viral and spark a national conversation.
Laura also discusses her new KicPod miniseries Am I Equal?, which explores the importance of informed conversations about finances, power, and partnership in modern relationships.

Sat, 14 Jun 2025 - 232 - Abbie Chatfield doesn’t care what you think
Being investigated by the Australian Electoral Commission was not on Abbie Chatfield’s bingo card for 2025. But after interviewing Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and then Greens leader Adam Bandt on her podcast It’s A Lot, Abbie found herself at the centre of several conversations about the recent federal election campaign. In fact, some days it seemed there were more headlines written about Abbie than there were about Anthony Albanese or Peter Dutton.
Today, Abbie sits down with Sarrah in the Something To Talk About studio to unpack her decision to speak out about politics – and the double standards at play when it’s a young, famous woman who dares to do so. She also talks about life and love as she prepares to turn 30, what it’s like to be in the middle of a very public feud, and whether or not we might see her mum on The Golden Bachelor…

On today’s episode of Something To Talk About, Sylvia joins Sarrah in the studio for a wide-ranging conversation about two very eventful decades working for the one company, being stood down from the Today show at the same time that her husband, Peter Stefanovic, and her brother-in-law, Karl Stefanovic, lost their jobs, the story behind her new podcast The Pay Off, and why she’d like to see more women supporting each other.

The disappearance of three-year-old William Tyrrell - the little boy in the Spider-Man suit who vanished from his foster grandmother’s garden - is a case that shocked the nation, destroyed lives and ended careers. More than 10 years later, we still don’t have answers.

Now, after months of research, being back on the road and speaking to people involved in the case, four new episodes are about to be released revealing shocking information that’s never been heard before.
In this episode of Something To Talk About, Dan and Nina join Sarrah in the studio to share the reality of what it was like to create the series, the personal toll of investigating true crime - and what they’ve uncovered along the way.

Sat, 17 May 2025 - 228 - Why Candice & David Warner want their daughters on social media
The conversation around restricting social media for children has been one of the biggest hot-button issues of the year – but Candice and David Warner have a very different view.
In today’s episode, Candice reveals why the high-profile couple decided to open an Instagram account for their daughters (Ivy, 10, Indi, 9, and Isla, 5) called The Warner Sisters, which at the time of recording has almost 200,000 followers.

Natalie Bassingthwaighte knows a thing or two about reinvention. She’s done it multiple times in her career. Musical theatre performer. Singer. Actor. Television host. Reality TV star.

When Dannii Minogue convinced her parents to let her try out for Young Talent Time at the age of seven, she had no idea of the impact it would have – not only on her life, but that of the entire family, too. Because back in the early ‘80s, Minogue was just another surname in the suburban phone book. Today, of course, it’s so much more than that. It’s Dannii. It’s Kylie. It’s disco and dancing and reality TV. It’s World Pride and Mardi Gras and being an ally.
On this episode of Something To Talk About, Dannii joins Sarrah to discuss her love of matchmaking, her “lowest moment” – and what it was really like growing up Minogue.You can see more of Dannii Minogue onI Kissed A Girl, streaming on Binge, and, as of February 20, also on I Kissed A Boy with new episodes dropping 8.30pm on Thursdays on Binge.

Having recently turned 60, Rebecca Gibney is entering what she calls her “third act” vowing to do things that take her firmly out of comfort zone.

In a wide-ranging conversation with host Sarrah Le Marquand, Rebecca takes us inside her emotional Logie Hall of Fame induction last year, shares the secrets of her nearly 25-year marriage, and reflects on her lifelong friendships with some of the country’s most high-profile women.
Rebecca Gibney will appear on Dancing With The Stars later this year on the Seven Network

Sat, 08 Feb 2025 - 214 - Karl Stefanovic on family, fear and the price of fame
He is one of the most recognisable names (and faces) in the country, but despite the fact he has been beaming into Australian homes for 20 years as co-host of the Todayshow, Karl Stefanovic remains in many ways an elusive man. He rarely gives in-depth interviews, but on this episode of Something To Talk About, Karl sits down for a no-holds-barred chat, with no topic off limits… and even a few tears. He opens up about everything: family dramas; his relationships with the seven women who have sat alongside him at the desk; and why, as someone who believes he has the “worst sense of humour in the world”, he is shocked that two decades on, he still has a job…
Watch the full episode with Karl here.
You can hear more from Karl on the Today Show,weekdaymornings from 5.30 AM on Nine.

Fri, 10 Jan 2025 - 211 - Summer series: in conversation with Hamish Blake
Something To Talk About is continuing to publish across the summer break, and will be back with a brand new episode on January 12.
In the meantime, we are revisiting some of your favourites from the 50 episodes we released over the past year. Today’s conversation is with Hamish Blake, which originally aired April 16, 2024.
***
For more than 20 years, Hamish Blake has been a familiar face on the Australian entertainment landscape, moving seamlessly between the worlds of radio, television and podcasting. So what’s been the secret to his success? In a rare in-depth interview, the popular entertainer and two-time Gold Logie winner chalks it up to luck - as well as a healthy dose of fun. Case in point: a spirited discussion about black cat lollies, the burial rituals of ancient Egypt and his theory that a well-stocked snack cupboard is key to a happy workplace.
Of course, there is a lot more to Hamish than mere clowning around. The Lego Mastershost also opens up about the public’s ongoing fascination with his marriage to Zoë Foster Blake, talks about the joy and chaos of fatherhood to two young children, discusses how he and longtime creative partner and friend Andy Lee have navigated the different life paths they have embarked upon and finally addresses what was really going through his head when the cameras cut to him during Sonia Kruger’s infamous Gold Logie acceptance speech last year.

Tue, 07 Jan 2025 - 208 - Summer series: in conversation with Em Rusciano
Something To Talk About is continuing to publish across the summer break, and will be back with a brand new episode on January 12.
In the meantime, we are revisiting some of your favourites from the 50 episodes we released over the past year. Today’s conversation is with Em Rusciano, which originally aired May 4, 2024.
***
Em Rusciano has never been one to hold back, but despite having built a career on being refreshingly honest, her decision to go public at a National Press Club address about being diagnosed with ADHD at age 42, and autism a year later, took her into completely unchartered territory.
Now, three years on from her diagnoses, Em is embarking on her most personal project yet, a new podcast series she describes as a “love letter to the neurodivergent community and a roadmap for neurotypical people.”
As you’d expect from a conversation with Em Rusciano, today’s episode covers a lot of ground - and veers from the emotional to the insightful to the hilarious - as Em speaks to host Sarrah Le Marquand to take us inside the past few years of her life, a volatile time she describes as “scorched earth”.
She gives a very-real-and-very-sweet glimpse inside her family life as the mother of three neurodivergent children, reveals whether we will ever see her run for politics, and explains how menopause will be making its presence felt when she takes to the stage for a national comedy tour later this year.
She also has the perfect answer for those who question if the increasing diagnosis in ADHD among adult women is simply just a “fad”. And she opens up about how being publicly accused of faking her autism diagnosis last year was her worst fear and sent her to ground - only to see her come back with a stronger sense of purpose than ever before.

In the meantime, we are revisiting some of your favourites from the 50 episodes we released over the past year. Today’s conversation is with Ita Buttrose, which originally aired March 2, 2024.
***
Few women in Australian media - or, for that matter, the country’s public sphere as a whole - have exerted as much influence or blazed as many trails as Ita Buttrose AC, OBE.
Now, as she prepares to step down from her role as chair of the ABC, the 82-year-old publishing veteran joins Something To Talk Aboutfor a frank discussion about her final months at the ABC, which have been marked by controversy and scrutiny following the departure of fill-in radio presenter Antoinette Lattouf late last year.
Ita also responds to her critics, reveals whether she harbours any regrets when she takes stock of her career and shares her view on whether it is really possible to separate reporting from commentary in the era of social media and 24/7 opinion cycle.
Ahead of International Women’s Day, Ita tells host Sarrah Le Marquand whether she ever suffers from the voice of self-doubt that haunts so many women, and if, after nearly six decades in the workplace, she still encounters the boys club.
And, of course, after five years at the helm of the ABC, what will she do next?

Sun, 05 Jan 2025 - 206 - Summer series: in conversation with Kyle Sandilands and Jackie ‘O’ Henderson

***
For 23 years, Kyle Sandilands and Jackie “O” Henderson have dominated radio airwaves in Sydney, and having appeared on various TV shows over the years, have become one of Australia’s most well-known double acts.
But despite their infamy, they very rarely do interviews together - and yet for today’s episode of Something To Talk About they agreed to sit down on the other side of the microphone to join host Sarrah Le Marquand for a no-holds-barred conversation that veers from the outrageous to the hilarious, and from the emotional to the unexpected.
On the eve of their show’s much talked about and risky expansion into Melbourne, they open up about what makes their relationship tick - both on and off air, whether they have any regrets over the controversies they have weathered over the years, and how they feel about being in very different chapters of their lives, with Kyle settled down as a happily married father just as a Jackie is hitting her stride as one of the most sought after single women in the country.
And, in one of the many surprising moments in the conversation, they both ponder an unlikely question: is Kyle Sandilands actually a feminist?
The Kyle & Jackie O Show airs from 6am weekdays on KIIS 1065 Sydney and KIIS 101.1 Melbourne. You can also listen via the iHeart app or wherever you get your podcasts.

Tue, 31 Dec 2024 - 203 - Summer series: in conversation with Kate Langbroek
Something To Talk About is continuing to publish across the summer break, and will be back with a brand new episode on January 12.
In the meantime, we are revisiting some of your favourites from the 50 episodes we released over the past year. Today’s conversation is with Kate Langbroek, which originally aired May 18, 2024.
***
It’s been five years since Kate Langbroek and her husband and four children packed up to move to Italy – a decision that to this day has people stopping her in the street to discuss.
Now firmly entrenched back into the reality of life back in Australia, we decided it was time to sit down with the always entertaining - and always unpredictable - Kate to shamelessly pick her brains for an update on the whole work/life/family ratio in mid 2024.
Apart from her thoughts on ‘shadow labour’, and the often thankless work performed by many across the country, day in and day out, host Sarrah Le Marquand asks Kate about the “glamour gap” that exists between male and female television presenters when it comes to the VERY large difference in time spent in hair and make-up.
So, given Kate describes herself as “a lazy dresser” - as she says, even her boots have to have zips as she can’t be bothered doing up laces - would the “glamour gap” be a dealbreaker if she were to be offered the TV job of her dreams?
Kate also chats about her apparent witching powers, and opens up experiencing anxiety for the first time in her life, and how her husband’s response unexpectedly inspired her latest project.
You can hear Kate Langbroek on theThe Buck Up wherever you get your podcasts.
