Something To Talk About ·

2024/02/02

She rose to fame as the literal girl next door on the hit TV series Packed To The Rafters, but actor Zoë Ventoura has always remained something of an enigma. In fact, she has so carefully maintained her privacy that no-one even knew she was pregnant until after her son was born. Over the course of her two-decade career in show business, she has only reluctantly revealed much about herself. Until now. In her most in-depth interview yet, Zoë joins Something To Talk About and opens up about why she

Radio and television presenter Erin Molan - who joins Stellar as a regular columnist this year - sits down with Something To Talk About for a poignant and at times heartbreaking conversation about the war she has waged against her own body since the age of 14. Speaking frankly about the loathing, disgust and punishment she unleashed on herself for more than 20 years as she built a career in the high-pressure world of network television, Erin reveals how she finally reached a point where she’d had

Even at a time when more taboos are being broken than ever before, the topic of money is still not considered to be polite dinner-table conversation.

2023/12/08

She has starred in not just one, but several of Australia’s most iconic and beloved TV shows of all time – with a cabinet full of Logie Awards to prove it. So what is the secret to Rebecca Gibney’s success? According to the woman herself, the answer is kindness. She recalls being told as a young actor by a co-star that the best advice he could give her to build a long term career was to treat everyone with respect. “Sometimes I'm not the best actor for the job,” Rebecca insists in this interview

What would you do if you came into a financial windfall? Maybe buy a new car, finally book that dream holiday or take your loved ones on a shopping spree? Author, media personality and podcast host Sarah Wilson decided to do something entirely different. After selling her I Quit Sugar Empire, she gave the proceeds away and opted to live WITHIN her means. As you’ll hear in today’s episode, Sarah admits that her modest lifestyle in a “tiny apartment in Paris” is not for everyone - but one she believes

We’ve all heard a lot about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle falling out with the royal family. But what if the real tension was between Prince William and King Charles III? And while it’s Meghan who has been widely blamed for Megxit, what if she was actually the one willing to stick it out - and it was Harry who was determined to walk away? Now, facing a crossroads more than a year after the death of Queen Elizabeth II, will the royals decide to modernise and embrace diversity to reflect the wider

For the past two decades, Asher Keddie has been a reliable presence in living rooms across the country - and one of the most popular actors of her generation. But despite her success - or, perhaps, because of it - she did not always feel at ease with her fame. In this episode of Something To Talk About, Asher sits down for a reflective chat as she looks back on the dizzying yet disconcerting experience of becoming a household name thanks to her starring roles in the hit TV series Love My Way and

Sally Obermeder knows a lot about wellness, not only as the CEO and co-founder of superfood, skincare and supplement empire Swiish, but also as a cancer survivor who in 2011 was faced with the reality that she might not make it to the 50th birthday she celebrated earlier this year.

If you were to sum up The Project host Sarah Harris’ life at the moment in one word, you couldn’t get more precise than “chaos”. Since sliding into the seat formerly occupied by Carrie Bickmore nearly a year ago, Harris has managed the juggle of work and motherhood with military precision. She splits her week across two cities and co-parents two young sons with her ex-husband - all of which, by her own admission, has taken a toll on her ability to keep up with friends.

Elizabeth Day likes to celebrate the “things that haven’t gone right”, which might seem ironic given she is an award-winning journalist, bestselling author and the host of the podcast How To Fail, which is nothing if not a success, given it boasts 45 million downloads and counting. In a thoughtful and expansive conversation, Elizabeth - who is based in the UK - reveals what audiences can expect during her upcoming live shows in Australia and opens up about the kinship she feels with our country
