Journalist and author Elfy Scott joins Cam for an honest conversation about the challenges of growing up with a parent living with schizophrenia. Elfy opens up about the lack of education and open communication surrounding mental illness, the impact on her family, and her journey to understanding and acceptance.
If a child experiences a complex mental health condition like psychosis, everyone would agree that someone at such a young age needs careful and considered care. If drugs are prescribed, the benefits must outweigh the risks. But there are fears that isn't always happening, and that growing demand for mental healthcare means the people who need the most specific treatment aren't always getting it. Today, contributor to The Saturday Paper and author of The One Thing We've Never Spoken About, Elfy Scott, on how mental health care for young people is becoming an issue of equality.

It had been over 10 years since anyone in the state of Tasmania was sentenced to prison for protesting. But that all changed when Colette Harmsen faced court this year. After racking up 22 arrests, a magistrate put her behind bars. Even as an increasing number of climate protestors face prosecution, Colette's story shows that some activists aren't backing down. Today, contributor to The Saturday Paper Elfy Scott, on the woman who isn't deterred by jail time and whether direct action leads to meaningful change. You can read Elfy Scott's piece in The Saturday Paper this coming weekend. Socials: Stay in touch with us on Twitter and Instagram Guest: Contributor to The Saturday Paper, Elfy Scott
This week, Alicia Vrajlal from Missing Perspectives sits down with journalist Elfy Scott to discuss Elfy's book The One Thing We've Never Spoken About.Elfy grew up in a household where her mother's schizophrenia was rarely, if ever, spoken about. They navigated this silence outside the family home too; for many years, this complex mental health condition was treated as an open secret.Over the past two decades, we have started talking more about common mental health conditions like depression and anxiety. But complex conditions like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and psychosis have been left behind, as have many of the people who live with these conditions or who care for them.Part memoir, part deep-dive investigation, The One Thing We've Never Spoken About is filled with rage at how our nation's public discourse, emergency services and healthcare systems continue to fail so many people. It is also a work of care, telling the little-heard stories of people who live with these conditions and work at the front lines of mental health. Above all, this timely, compelling book is informed by hope and courage, breaking down taboos and asking big questions about vulnerability, justice and duty of care.We really hope to get a lot out of this episode.

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. THE END BITS: With thanks to Elfy Scott. Buy The One Thing We've Never Spoken About. Feedback? We're listening!

With the Australian Federal Election coming up on 21 May, Sal & Al brush up on their politics before they hit the polls. The gals chat with Elfy Scott and Justine Landis-Hanley, the hosts of the political podcast Left Right Out, to get the lowdown on democracy. They look at how the Australian voting system actually works and why you might want to reconsider voting for the same party as your parents. Plus, a quick-fire game of which parties have the best policies for everything from housing affordability and HECs debt to LGTBQI+ rights. Big ol’ disclaimer: We couldn’t possibly cover everything in a single podcast episode, so please make sure to do your research before election day.

Hello fellow kids, We begin this already cursed week with a little personal catch up as well as a chat about celebrity merch after Olivia Rodrigo's team leaves fans in a brutal mood. Maggie penned a personal piece for R29 Australia this week titled Am I Queer Enough To Call Myself Bi? She reads a little bit out for us and we reference our February episode that you can listen to here. The Wall Street Journal released a new report on TikTok recently stating that the bots have figured out the main algorithm key is your watch time. This leads us into a discussion around our algorithms and how TikTok is just Tumblr 2.0. We reference this article by Charli Clement for VICE titled TikTok's LGBTQ+ Discourse is Just a Re-Run of Tumblr. We only JUST spoke about eco-anxiety but maybe we should've waited because this week it's been off the charts. The IPCC report into climate change has made many of us reconsider what the future will look like and if we want to bring kids into this mess. One piece we both resonated with was Elfy Scott's article for PedestrianTV titled Climate Change Is Making Young Aussies Rethink Having Kids, But Do Our Leaders Even Give A Shit? Elfy kindly reads out some of her words and you can follow the talented writer here on Instagram and Twitter. We also post this heartwarming TikTok by user @joshuaturek. This week, Maggie goes full fantasy with The Mysterious Benedict Society on Disney+ while Jas recommends a report from Triple J's Hack called On TikTok, lies and misinformation run wild that you can listen to here. Katie Zhou created our fab new cover art and India Raine is our wonderful producer and composer of our jingle. Email us at cultureclubmail@gmail.com, find us on Instagram @cultureclubpod, or on our personal accounts @jasmineeskye and @yemagz. That's all from us! Stay safe and stay sane.Mags and Jas xoxo
