Something To Talk About with Samantha Armytage

When Mamamia co-founder Mia Freedman first hired Jessie Stephens to write for her, she had no idea she had also just hired her eldest son's future wife, and the mother of her first grandchild. That was 10 years ago. Since then, Mia and Jessie have gone on to sit opposite each other as two of the co-hosts of the Mamamia Out Loud podcast and have recently wrapped production on the second season of Strife, the TV drama loosely based on Mia’s memoir, on which Jessie worked as a co-producer and writer and Mia as an executive producer. The mother and daughter-in-law duo sat down with Sarrah in the Something To Talk About studio for their first-ever interview together to talk all things work and family - and whether truth really is stranger than fiction. Strife season two will premiere on BINGE May 8. Watch the full episode with Mia and Jessie here.

On this episode of Something To Talk About ahead of marking her first Mother’s Day as a mum, Chloe sits down with Sarrah to discuss the double-edged sword of being so open with her followers, the hard-won joy of becoming a parent to her daughter Bobbi after a five-year fertility journey, and “the insane ups and downs” of her relationship with her DJ husband Paul (AKA Fisher).

Her acting career, her ability to have children, her health - everything was up in the air.

On this episode of Something To Talk About, Miranda joins Sarrah for a revealing conversation about her approach to motherhood – and co-parenting with Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry, life at home with her husband, Snap Inc founder Evan Spiegel, their surprising attitude toward screen time for the four young boys they’re raising, and the big move she is contemplating for her skincare empire.

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.

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 Today show, 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.

That’s because, as she says, “I don’t know how to fake it.” On this episode of Something To Talk About, Tammin joins Sarrah to discuss everything from the nerve-wracking early days of her career to turning down Robyn’s hit single ‘Dancing On My Own’ to why it’s never been more important to speak up for women’s rights and be a proud feminist.

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 Masters host 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.

Today’s conversation is with Rosie Batty, which originally aired March 16, 2024. *** Ten years after her son Luke Batty was murdered by his father, Rosie Batty continues her tireless campaign to raise awareness about domestic and family violence. But perhaps even more remarkably, she has managed to find hope in the aftermath of such an unimaginable tragedy. On today’s episode of Something To Talk About, Rosie sits down for a powerful conversation in which she reflects on the complexities of grief, as well as her memories of Luke, the beloved son she lost when he was aged just 11.

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 Tina Arena, which originally aired October 5, 2024. *** In the 30 years since Tina Arena stormed the charts with her hit song ‘Chains’, the powerhouse singer has become a vocal force to be reckoned with and one of the most successful Australian artists ever. On the eve of a tour revisiting the 1994 album that would become a pivotal turning point in her career, Tina sits down with Something To Talk About for a no-holds-barred chat as she reflects on her beginnings as a child star (including the story of how she came to adopt her stage name), explains why she has never been afraid to speak her mind, calls out the “boring” narrative that pits successful women against one another - and reveals the heartbreak of being separated from her teenage son since the pandemic.

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.

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 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 About for 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? Something To Talk About is a podcast by Stellar, hosted by Editor-In-Chief Sarrah Le Marquand.

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 Kyle Sandilands and Jackie ‘O’ Henderson, which originally aired April 27, 2024. *** 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.

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 Amanda Keller, which originally aired June 22, 2024. *** Amanda Keller is a confessed oversharer. It’s her job to share snippets of her private life on the breakfast radio show she’s co-hosted for the past 19 years, Jonesy and Amanda on Sydney’s WSFM. But last year, Amanda revealed she’d been keeping a secret. On her new podcast, Double A Chattery, Amanda told the world that for the past six years, her husband Harley had been living with Parkinson's. On this episode of Something To Talk About, Amanda joins Stellar’s editor-in-chief Sarrah Le Marquand to talk about her husband Harley, parenting adults, whether or not she’ll ever consider a role on television again, and why she’s even forgiven Tom Gleeson, the man many believe robbed her of a well deserved Gold Logie.

Today’s conversation is with David Campbell, which originally aired March 23, 2024. *** Television presenter and singer David Campbell will soon mark an important milestone: ten years since the day he decided to stop drinking alcohol. In a wide ranging conversation with Something To Talk About, David - who is, of course, the son of Australian rock legend Jimmy Barnes - opens up about why he wanted to break the intergenerational cycle of addiction in his family, how sobriety has impacted his marriage - and whether he sees a day where he tells his eldest son of the role he played in changing his parents’ relationship with alcohol.

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.

Today’s conversation is with Pip Edwards and Julie Bishop, which originally aired February 10, 2024. *** At first glance, they may not seem to have much in common. Julie Bishop is a former foreign minister and current university chancellor, while Pip Edwards is co-founder and creative director of one of the country’s most successful activewear brands. But in the past five years, they have forged an unlikely yet extremely close friendship that has endured despite their vastly different backgrounds, careers, ages and family circumstances. So what happens when you put Bishop and Edwards - who are undoubtedly two of the most talked-about women in Australia - in front of a microphone? We invited them in to the studio for a lively and free-flowing conversation to find out what they have to say about supporting each other through media scandals and relationship woes, how they handle the paparazzi (even the ones who - yes - hide behind garbage bins), their mutual fashion for passion and what they’re texting to one another in private.

Before he retired last year, David Stratton spent nearly six decades reviewing movies. And millions of Australians came to know and love him thanks to an on-air partnership with fellow critic Margaret Pomeranz, which turned them into household names and one of the most beloved double acts in the country.  On the show today, David joins Sarrah from his home – where he is still watching one, and often two, movies each day – to discuss his latest project, a book that chronicles three pivotal decades in Australian film; his enduring friendship with Margaret; his thoughts on some of his most infamous reviews – including an initially lukewarm reaction to comedy classic The Castle, and another that landed him in hot water with Julie Andrews - and the one film he thought was so awful he walked out of the cinema.

It's been three years since Emma Watkins left the Wiggles - an announcement that broke the hearts of children everywhere (and one that left plenty of parents upset, too). Emma made history when she became the first-ever female Wiggle in 2013, but as she toured the world as the Yellow Wiggle, she was also carving out time to explore her other passions. She studied for her PhD, which explored creative ways to use sign language and dance in children's media. Ideas were brewing, and though she knew she would disappoint her young fans, Emma also knew she needed to back herself.  It was worth it: she has gone on to create a new and hugely popular alter ego, Emma Memma. She is running a business alongside her husband Oliver. And she is about to host a new ABC series that brought her back in contact with many of the children and families who had known and loved her as Emma Wiggle.  You can see Emma Watkins on Teenage Boss: Next Level airing on the ABC from October 12th 2024.  Something To Talk About is a podcast by Stellar, hosted by Editor-In-Chief Sarrah Le Marquand.

Eleven years ago, Tim Minchin gave a speech that went viral. The Matilda The Musical composer, who was being awarded an honorary doctorate at The University of Western Australia, shared his nine life lessons with the graduating class – and to say it struck a chord with the world is to put it mildly.

It gets a bit philosophical, but the thing about Tim is, he bares his soul in everything he does.

Cate Campbell competed as part of the Australian swimming team at four consecutive Olympics and has a haul of eight medals (four of them gold) to show for it. But this time around, she's at the Paris Games fulfilling a very different role.   On this episode of Something To Talk About, Cate joins host Sarrah Le Marquand poolside from Paris to talk about the bittersweet experience of shifting from athlete to commentator, and how her experience as an Olympic athlete gives her a unique appreciation for the hard work on display.

She opens up about the bittersweet feelings she has about missing out on the competition this year, the inspiration she draws from Australia's female athletes – who are currently leading the country's medal tally – and her realisation that watching from the sidelines is a tough gig: “This spectating business is hard.” Cate also discusses her plans for the future post-retirement, and why they're likely to involve the 2032 Olympics in her home state of Queensland.  Cate Campbell is part of the Nine Network's Olympic commentary team.
