Brooke Boney had one of the best gigs in the world. For years, we woke up with her on morning TV. It was a job that changed her life—until one morning, she made a decision that would change her life again. She announced, live on air, that she was done. Not just with breakfast television, but with Australia. She was heading overseas to study at Oxford.

She’s back in Australia now - wiser, thoughtful, and unsure of what her next move will be. She’s collected her wisdom in a new book, All Of It, and that pretty much sums up this special episode of No Filter.

In this conversation, you’ll hear Kate & Brooke discuss:

• Fame & Stalkers (yes, plural)
• Why Brooke loves sport so much
• Family, Fertility, and Love
• Being the first Indigenous woman on commercial TV
• So much more…

[Part 1 of 2] At fourteen years old, Christian Picciolini was lost, confused and looking for guidance. If he’d been approached by a footy coach or a skateboarder - he reckons he would have followed their lead. But instead, he was recruited by the leader of the notorious Chicago area skinheads, and found himself deeply entwined in a violent, racist and dangerous neo-nazi hate group.

Today, however, Christian spends every day of his life trying to undo the harm he caused, and to help other young people disengage from hate groups. So how did Christian go from being the lead propagandist for an extremist organisation to actively working to bring them down?

It’s a story you’ll have to hear to believe - and it’s a story that’s more important today than ever before.

It’s been 18 months since Evelyn Jones burst onto our screens—fictional, yes, but her story couldn’t feel more real to the women who brought her to life.

In this special episode of No Filter, host Jessie Stephens—who is also a writer on the show and Mamamia’s Executive Editor—is joined by Mia Freedman, whose memoir Work, Strife, Balance inspired the hit Binge series Strife, along with Asher Keddie, who plays Evelyn, and executive producer Bruna Papandrea.

They reflect on Season 1, including Mia’s emotional spiral before the premiere, and give us a sneak peek at what’s to come in Season 2, dropping Thursday, May 8.

Together, these powerhouse creatives open up about what it means to be a woman in the media and entertainment industry today—the competition, the comparisons, the fear of cancellation, and the constant balancing act between public and private life.

And of course, they talk about ambition: what it costs, why it matters, and how the world still struggles when women dare to want more.

Season 2 of Strife premieres on Binge Thursday May 8th,.

Georgia Love — and yes, that is her real name — has always had a lot of love to give.

Almost a decade ago, she stepped onto our screens as The Bachelorette, searching for just that: love. She found it, too, forming a relationship in the public eye that captured hearts around the country. But now, almost ten years on, that same relationship is ending — also in full view of the public.

Georgia is no stranger to loss — both the kind she has chosen to share with the world, and the kind she's fought fiercely to keep private.
In this conversation, you'll hear:

• Georgia discuss losing her mum just days after her Bachelorette finale aired
• The very public cancellation she endured that still stings...
• Stepping away from her career, a heartbreaking friendship breakup, and the ways in which she's been changed by public scrutiny.
• And, of course, her very recent separation from her husband, and how she's picking up the pieces.

Georgia has weathered more storms than most. Each time, she's picked herself up, rebuilt her life, and somehow stayed open-hearted. Resilient, vulnerable, and tougher than she often gets credit for, Georgia Love is a woman who has lived many lives in one.

You can follow Georgia Love here.

Teresa Palmer is the ultimate working mum. From boldly walking into a talent agent’s office and declaring she’d be a mother first and an actor second, to negotiating flights and breastfeeding breaks into every project—she does it all on her terms.

Now pregnant with her sixth child, Teresa Palmer lives life with her heart on her sleeve—dreamer, doer, and total open book.

You might know her from The Mother Daze podcast, her acting roles, or her bestselling book The Zen Mama Guide to Finding Your Rhythm in Pregnancy, Birth, and Beyond, but in this chat, she’s all heart, humour, and raw honesty.

What you'll hear in this conversation:

- The ten-page letter she wrote to manifest her husband
- Her new role in The Last Anniversary
- The wild ride of raising five kids across two countries
- The village of women who keep her sane
- What motherhood has taught her about identity, creativity, and connection

Teresa is as real as they come. This one’s for anyone trying to do it all—and keep their heart intact while they’re at it.
