Waleed Aly spent more than a decade on our screens four nights a week on The Project. He’s one of the most recognisable people in Australian media, yet he has never had a social media account and very few of us know much about him at all. In this conversation, Kate and her former Project colleague go back to Vermont in Melbourne’s east, where the son of Egyptian migrants grew up in a house where big ideas were argued over the dinner table, and where his English-teacher mum still corrects his grammar. He talks about how close his dad came to giving up on Australia altogether, the trip to Cairo at 20 that changed his faith, and how the woman he married first told him she wouldn’t marry him “if you were the last man on earth”. Waleed opens up about keeping his kids out of the public eye, the backlash that came with his Gold Logie, the night he lost his father, and whether he really did cry on the last night of The Project. And he explains why he’ll never go into politics, why he’s a pessimist who wishes he were an optimist, and the peace that comes from accepting you’re not in control. Reasoning with Chaos: Dispatches from disorder by Waleed Aly is available now.  What To Listen To Next: Listen: Nic Russell Lost Her Daughter, Survived Cancer, Has Parkinson’s and Needed a New Heart.

In 2005, Nic Russell’s two-year-old daughter, Kenzie, was diagnosed with a rare childhood cancer. Months later, while Kenzie was still in treatment, Nic was diagnosed with breast cancer herself. Kenzie died just after Christmas that year. She was three. In the years since, Nic has started a children’s grief charity in her daughter’s name, campaigned for women’s access to life-saving cancer treatment, been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and, in 2022, had a heart transplant. In this conversation, Nic tells Kate about growing up in Northern Ireland during the Troubles, fighting to get doctors to listen, the comedian she says saved her life, and what grieving people actually need from the rest of us. Nic Russell's memoir, Bollix: When Life Isn’t All It’s Craic’d Up To Be, is out now.

Daisy Edgar-Jones and Esme Creed-Miles are bringing Jane Austen’s Sense & Sensibility to a new generation — and one creative choice has already sparked a very passionate debate. While in Australia promoting the new adaptation, Daisy and Esme sat down with The Spill’s Laura Brodnik to talk about becoming the Dashwood sisters, the friendship they first formed years before making this film, and why they felt so safe and supported by one another on set. They also address the conversation surrounding the film’s historically unconventional hair and styling choices, why Esme believes some of the criticism misses the point, and why Daisy says a new adaptation should offer audiences something distinctive rather than simply recreate what has come before. Plus, they talk falling in love with Jane Austen, sisterhood, romance, and the unexpected Love Island memories that connect them to the very first time they worked together.

G Flip gave themselves one year to make their solo career happen. They wrote songs in their bedroom, built a spreadsheet of the Australian music industry and prepared a live show before anyone had booked them to perform. Then one song changed everything. In this conversation with Kate Langbroek, G shares the determination behind what might have looked like overnight success, and the story of the teacher who recognised their potential long before the rest of the world caught up. They talk about a childhood obsession with drums, finding the language to understand their gender, and the extraordinary self-belief that kept them going. G also speaks openly about their relationship with Chrishell at the time of recording, falling in love in the public eye and the emotional experience of trying to start a family through IVF. Funny, thoughtful and full of warmth, this is the story of how G Flip became G Flip. This conversation was first published in August 2025.  What To Listen To Next: Listen: Belinda Carlisle: “How Could You Stay With Me?” Listen: Judith Lucy Wrote the Book on Wellness.

A week into her sobriety, Belinda Carlisle broke down in the middle of Harrods and called her husband with one question: how could you stay with me? Belinda has lived more lives than most. She started the Go-Go’s with a group of girls from the LA punk scene who had never played a note, and within three years they had the first number one album by an all-female band who wrote their own songs and played their own instruments. Then she went solo and gave the world ‘Heaven Is a Place on Earth’. In this conversation with Kate Langbroek, Belinda opens up about growing up the eldest of seven with a stepfather who told her she’d never amount to anything, and the music press that called her “pretty and plump”. She talks about the drugs she used partly to stay thin and the 30-year addiction that followed, and about getting sober at 47. She also tells the story of the night she met her husband and moved in with him the next day, leaving LA for the south of France four days after the 1994 earthquake, and the morning her teenage son came out to her and then announced it at his school assembly. Plus, why her G’day & Goodbye tour will be the last time she tours Australia, and why she might just come back for a one-off. Belinda’s G’day & Goodbye tour plays Fremantle Prison (3 March), the Palais Theatre, Melbourne (5 and 6 March), the Enmore Theatre, Sydney (12 and 13 March) and Fortitude Music Hall, Brisbane (19 and 20 March, 2027). Tickets are available here. Her latest album, Once Upon a Time in California, is out now. This episode discusses addiction, disordered eating and body image.

Judith Lucy wrote the book on wellness. Then she got cancer. After years of anxiety and a burnout that forced her to step away from stand-up, one of Australia’s funniest women went searching for a way to feel better. That search took her all the way to an ayahuasca retreat in the Amazon. Let’s just say enlightenment wasn’t what she brought home. Just days before her scheduled double mastectomy, Judith joins her longtime friend Kate Langbroek for a conversation that is as funny, frank and deeply personal as you’d expect. She shares the Christmas Day revelation that changed how she understood her family, and the devastating phone call that exposed the boyfriend she thought she’d grow old with. She also opens up about the anxiety that followed her on stage for decades, and why it took until her 50s to ask what she actually wanted her life to look like. And when her cancer diagnosis brought up a fear familiar to so many single women, who would look after her, her friends had an answer. Judith’s new book, Well Well Well, is out now through Simon & Schuster. What To Listen To Next: Listen: Everyone Knows Rodger Corser.

Benson Boone knows what people say about him. He’s heard the Harry Styles comparisons, the Freddie Mercury references and the assumptions about everything from his jumpsuits to his politics. He’s even had strangers tell him they thought he’d be a “real douchebag”. We know No Filter listeners love a great interview so we’re sharing an interview from our sister podcast, The Spill. No Filter executive producer and Spill guest host Bree Player sits down with Benson to talk about what people get wrong about him, why those comparisons can be frustrating, and the imposter syndrome that follows him into rooms full of his musical heroes. For someone so confident onstage, life away from it can take some figuring out. Benson opens up about adjusting to the quiet after a tour, his constantly racing mind and how a song about losing one person became a love letter to the people who show up for him.

Rodger Corser has played a jackaroo, a detective, a cop and a heart surgeon, and for most of his career he's been very good at not telling us much about himself. In this episode Kate gets him talking. He takes us back to the pub bands he played from age 16, and to the film school degree that was supposed to put him behind the camera. He tells the story of walking into the Rent audition with no plan and walking out with the lead, and of the notorious party cast that followed. We hear about meeting his wife Renae through a matchmaking agent, and about becoming a stepdad and then a dad. Rodger also talks about the diagnosis that came barely a year into their relationship, how bluntly it was delivered, and the second opinion Renae's mum insisted on that changed everything. From there he describes the busy years of 12-hour days and months away from home, which his family carried, and the quiet years since. He also gets into the Underbelly nickname that has followed him around for almost two decades. Rodger talks about the pivot from scripted drama to hosting The Traitors and The Floor, the Today show speculation, and why he thinks the industry asks young performers to give away too much of themselves. Then there's Shawshank. After 20 years away he's returning to the stage as the Warden, opening at Sydney's Theatre Royal in January 2027 and touring to Melbourne, Perth, Adelaide and Brisbane.

Koko Casey was a flight nurse. She spent her career flying into disaster zones and distant countries, keeping critically ill strangers alive at 30,000 feet, until the night a routine medical retrieval turned into the plane crash she was never supposed to survive. On the 17th of November, 2009, the jet she was working on ran out of fuel in a storm off Norfolk Island and ditched into the ocean at close to 200 kilometres an hour. Koko and everyone else on board lived. What came next very nearly took her life anyway. In this episode, Koko tells Kate Langbroek what the official story leaves out: the sixteen years of chronic pain and PTSD that followed the crash, the slow slide into addiction and self-loathing she now calls "the hitchhikers," and the points where she came closest to not making it at all, including an overdose discovered by her own children. She talks about the group therapy session that changed how she spoke to herself, the flying lesson she booked to face her fear head-on, meeting the man who would become her husband while he was landscaping her backyard, and the decision to legally change her name as a symbol of who she'd become. She also talks about her work today, presenting to the Royal Australian Air Force's Human Performance and Safety team, and what it took to finally put her story on the page.

Here is a very special episode of Unleashed, Mamamia’s podcast for Gen X women. One of the hosts of Unleashed, Dr Ginni Mansberg, has been going through something incredibly difficult. Ginni’s mum had been very ill for a long time and made the decision to choose voluntary assisted dying. Ginni wanted to talk about what was happening with her mum and her family on Unleashed. And rather than just having a conversation about VAD, they decided to tell the whole story. It’s about what happens when you know someone you love is going to die. About family, grief, love and all the complicated feelings that come with saying goodbye. And it’s Ginni telling that story as both a doctor and, ultimately, as a daughter. This is part one of a three-part series, beginning one month before Ginni’s mum’s death. Listen to part two and part three here. Please take care while listening. This episode discusses voluntary assisted dying, death and grief. If this conversation brought up hard feelings and you need some help, please call Lifeline here.
