| Yes, Elizabeth Gilbert Plotted To Murder The Love Of Her Life | 10 Sep 2025 | 00:59:18 | |
There’s one thing you definitely know about Elizabeth Gilbert. She wrote Eat Pray Love - a book that became a global phenomenon, a movie, and a blueprint for millions of women seeking transformation. It made Liz one of the most famous writers in the world. But behind that fame was a deeper story - one Liz never told. Until now. In her new memoir, All the Way to the River, Elizabeth Gilbert tells the truth about the love of her life, her best friend-turned-partner, the late Rayya Elias. It’s a story that’s fierce, complicated, and far from the romantic ideal many people projected onto them. It’s also about Liz’s own descent into addiction; not to drugs or alcohol, but to sex and love. “I am a sex and love addict,” she writes. “I have caused tremendous harm to myself and others.” In this brutally honest conversation, Liz opens up to Holly about the darkest chapters of her life; the chaos of living with a partner relapsing into addiction, the shame of her own destructive patterns, and the moment she contemplated something unthinkable. But this is also a story about healing, truth, and grace. About the kind of honesty that can save your life. And about what happens when you stop running, and finally let yourself be seen. This is Elizabeth Gilbert like you’ve never heard her before: Unfiltered. Grieving. Funny. Fierce. THE END BITS: Listen to more No Filter interviews here and follow us on Instagram here.

| Rosie O’Donnell on the Day Her Friendship With Ellen Fell Apart | 07 Sep 2025 | 01:16:39 | |
Rosie O’Donnell has lived almost every version of life in the spotlight. From her breakout in Hollywood alongside Tom Hanks and Madonna, to her groundbreaking daytime talk show that redefined television, Rosie was one of the most famous women in America. But with fame came ridicule, public feuds, and moments that cut deeply. She’s been celebrated, mocked, and at times turned into the punchline of her own story. And one of the most painful moments came when Ellen DeGeneres told the world they weren’t friends. In this conversation, Rosie is raw, funny and reflective. She speaks about growing up in the shadow of losing her mother, her shy first attempts at romance, the highs and lows of talk show success, and the very public feuds that made headlines. She shares what it was like to be blindsided by Ellen’s rejection, and why that moment stayed with her. And yes, she even talks about her recent return to our screens in And Just Like That. Rosie O’Donnell has lived a big, messy, fascinating life — and in this episode, she tells it all. You can follow Rosie O'Donnell here. Rosie O'Donnell is bringing her show, Common Knowledge to Australia in October. More information and tickets here.

| Bethany And Simone Did Everything Together - Until a Toxic Drink Took Simone’s Life | 13 Jul 2025 | 01:02:14 | |
Bethany Clarke and Simone White were best friends. They’d known each other since they were kids. So when they set off on a long-awaited backpacking trip through Southeast Asia, it was meant to be a joyful, carefree adventure. But just three days into their holiday, everything changed. At their hostel in Laos, Bethany and Simone attended happy hour drinks by the pool. What they didn’t know was that the drinks had been contaminated with methanol, a toxic and often fatal chemical sometimes found in unregulated alcohol. Within 24 hours, both women were seriously unwell and found themselves in hospital. Simone didn’t survive. Bethany did. This is the story of what happened next - the decisions no one should have to make in a foreign hospital, the grief of losing your best friend, and the unbearable weight of being the one left behind. You can follow Bethany Clarke’s advocacy account and sign her petition here: https://www.instagram.com/simonewhitemethanolawareness/ If this story has brought up anything for you, please reach out to Lifeline on 13 11 14 or visit Lifeline.org.au To learn more about methanol poisoning and alcohol safety while travelling, visit DFAT SmartTraveller.

| What Life Is Like After You Decide Not To Have Kids | 23 Jun 2024 | 00:49:59 | |
If you're a girl or a woman who doesn't think she wants to have kids - where are your role models for what your life could look like? Portrayals of happy mums are everywhere, but rarely do we see women who choose not to have children shown in a positive light. Ten years ago, journalist and editor Farrah Storr decided to be a non-parent. In the years since that decision, she has learned so much about the many ways a woman can live a rich, connected and fulfilling life without having children. And lucky for us, she’s turned her observations into a list of aha moments and beautiful surprises that we can all learn from, whether we are parents or non-parents, and she shares them with Mia Freedman in this episode of No Filter. You can read Farrah’s substack “Things Worth Knowing” here. And you can follow her on Instagram here.

You can hear the second half of Mia's conversation with Patric here. Sociopaths tend to lie, break laws, act impulsively and they have little regard for their own safety because they simply don’t have fear or guilt. All these things are true for Patric. In this conversation Patric talks to Mia Freedman about the emotions she doesn't feel, the signs that popped up when she was a child and what it's like being friends with a sociopath. It’s believed just under 5% of the population are sociopaths, that’s one in 25 people. That’s why Patric wrote her memoir Sociopaths, to share what it’s really like.

| Deborah Frances-White Isn't Afraid To Take On The Manosphere | 06 Jul 2025 | 01:01:15 | |
Deborah Frances-White is the woman behind The Guilty Feminist, the podcast that’s sparked global conversations about modern feminism, contradiction, and calling ourselves in. She’s a comedian, an author, a screenwriter, and a performer. But underneath all of that is someone who knows what it means to live in silence. Adopted at birth and raised in a strict religious community, Deborah grew up in a world shaped by rules, obedience, and fear. She was taught to conform. To behave. To stay quiet. And she did, for a while. In this episode of No Filter, Deborah shares the story of walking away from everything she was raised to believe, and how she found her voice in the aftermath. We talk about her new book, Six Conversations We’re Scared to Have, and why she's choosing to say the things most of us are too afraid to. She speaks about gender non-conformity, shame, free speech, cancel culture, and the emotional impact of being publicly shunned. We also talk about comedy, and how it became the way she processes pain, connection and truth. This is a conversation about identity, courage, and what happens when you stop being the person everyone expected you to be.

At the intersection of sex, marketing and the gig economy, you will find Annie Knight, who has been branded ‘Australia’s Most Sexually Active Woman’. Only Fans became wildly popular during the pandemic, with thousands of Australians creating accounts in the hope of converting home made content - usually sexually explicit photos and videos - into cash. But OnlyFans isn’t the golden goose of the gig economy. The vast majority of creators make very little money. And then there’s Annie. So how much does she make?

| The Marvel Star Who Survived Opus Dei as a Gay Teen | 29 Jun 2025 | 01:10:07 | |
Before Australian actor, Tim Pocock, was cast as young Cyclops in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, he was a teenager growing up in a strict Catholic home - navigating a world where being gay wasn’t just discouraged, it was treated as something to be fixed. In this raw and powerful conversation, Tim opens up about his time at Redfield College in Sydney - a school linked to Opus Dei. He speaks candidly about surviving conversion therapy, and the years he spent battling internalised homophobia. Tim also shares what it was like to grow up silenced, how that trauma shaped his relationship with his body, his family and his faith, and what it took to finally unlearn it all - and live as himself. This is a story of survival, truth, and reclaiming identity.

| BEST OF: Stolen Focus - Why You Can't Pay Attention | 07 Jan 2024 | 00:59:36 | |
Want more from Johann? Listen to the rest of his chat with Mia here Does your brain feel a bit like a marshmallow lately? Do you find it hard to concentrate? Do you pick up your phone only to find that an hour has passed and you’re down some obscure rabbit hole that’s landed you on the Facebook page of your high school English teacher and you’ve forgotten why you picked up your phone in the first place? You're not alone. It has been SO HARD to focus lately. So hard to hold our attention for longer than a goldfish can. Is it COVID? Is it technology? And….is it our fault? If you ask Mia's guest today, Johann Hari, author of the best-selling book Stolen Focus - he’ll tell you it’s not. Because we haven’t lost our focus… it’s not like something we misplaced. Our focus has deliberately been stolen from us. And this is how to get it back. THE END BITS: With thanks to Johann Hari. Stolen Focus is available now. Feedback? We’re listening!

| WELL: From Body To Brain Health: How To Go The Distance As You Get Older | 27 Jun 2025 | 00:30:17 | |
What do Zumba and Greek dancing have to do with bone density? Why should you shave first and soak later? And who gets to decide whether you can have a hysterectomy for health reasons if you haven’t had kids yet? In this episode, Endocrinologist Dr Sonia Davison from Jean Hailes for Women’s Health talks about whether diet and exercise can prevent dementia and what waist circumference has to do with healthy ageing. She also discusses how stomping, sleeping and strength training should all be part of the puzzle as you get older. We also talk about intermittent fasting and how cups of tea with your girlfriends could be just what the doctor ordered. And, is it possible to delay your ‘hormone window of chaos’?

| Asher Keddie On Strife And Her Life | 10 Dec 2023 | 00:58:24 | |
Asher Keddie has been one of Australia’s most acclaimed and beloved actors for decades. From Love My Way to Offspring, Paper Giants, Nine Perfect Strangers, The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart, she has won awards and hearts in equal measure.

A very, very candid conversation about friendship, fame and how Asher Keddie feels so different in her 40s than she has at any other time in her life.

| Celeste Barber Got Famous For Being Real. Then It Got Complicated | 22 Jun 2025 | 01:10:12 | |
Celeste Barber built a global following by being “real” - pulling faces in big knickers, parodying celebrity perfection, and making millions of people laugh on Instagram. But this is the side of Celeste that Instagram doesn’t see. In this intimate and revealing conversation, Celeste opens up about the chaos of her childhood, her ADHD diagnosis, the burnout that nearly broke her, and the pressure of being the internet’s favourite funny woman. She talks about her marriage to ‘Hot Husband’ Api and what it’s like raising kids while the world watches. She shares what fame has given her, what it’s taken, and the quiet work she’s done to figure out what parts of her life are just for her. Yes, she’s hilarious. But she’s also honest, vulnerable, and still figuring it out one little win at a time, just like the rest of us. This is the real Celeste Barber - beyond the selfies, the knickers, and the punchlines.
