    Australians woke up on Saturday morning to the news that the US Supreme Court had voted to overturn the constitutional right for American women to access abortion. Amelia Lester is an Australian journalist living in Washington D.C, she joins us to help unpack what’s happening on the ground over in the U.S.

    Plus, a few weeks ago, we had a vibrator dilemma that broke the Internet. Now, there’s another one…

    And we’ve got our Jessie back at last. So, what DID she do on her holidays, how much do cocktails cost after inflation? And what does she want you to know about what it's really like traveling in a post-Covid world?

    This week we've seen New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern cement her place as a leader of her generation.

    Fix This, Michael

    As Robert Mueller's investigation hones in on the big fish, former fixer Michael Cohen has officially been sentenced to a three year prison term for committing crimes at the direction of US President Donald Trump. Many people think this is the first prison sentence of many. But can Trump really be arrested? Plus, General John Kelly 'resigned' from his post as White House Chief of Staff, and Trump can't find anyone to replace him. With Mnuchin, Mulvaney and Ayers all declining the job offer, the White House corridors are increasingly empty. So Amelia and Mia ask the questions 'What happens next, and how does this end?'
