It’s 2025, and we’re still whispering the word period.

Despite being a natural, regular part of life for half the population, periods are still wrapped in shame and silence. They're sanitised in ads, tiptoed around in schools, and often treated as something to hide — even at home.

We’re unpacking why the stigma still exists, and how it continues to impact women and people who menstruate today.

Plus, the 3 simple phone settings experts say you should change now to help keep your kids safe online — without totally invading their privacy.

And in headlines today Opposition leader Peter Dutton has been narrowly declared the winner of last night's third leaders debate; Labor has promised to protect women from financial abuse, making perpetrators liable for debt created in their victims name and blocking them from getting their victims super after death; The Coalition has promised an extra $21 billion to be spent on defence if they win at the election; A 4.6 magnitude earthquake has struck the Hunter Valley town of Singleton shaking residents of parts of Sydney awake just before 3am; The Pope now lays in state ahead of the funeral to be held on Saturday attended by dignitaries including Prince William; The Academy who oversee the Oscars, will now enforce a rule that all who vote in the awards will have to prove they have watched all the movies that are nominated.

Check out our video testing men's pain response - in short: hilarious.

You're not alone... and when it comes to self-diagnosis ADHD, the countless videos on the app would have us believe we're all living with the condition.

But how much truth is there to it? And how much of our self diagnosis is actually accurate?

This is an episode about an epic friendship between two women.

It transcends marriages, divorce, miscarriage and sex and ends in the most poignant, tragic, beautiful way.

When Molly was 41, she was given a life-changing diagnosis. And instead of living out the life she'd built with her husband, she left their 15-year marriage to go and have hot sex with strangers. Dozens of them.

And her friend Nikki... what was she to do? Judge her? Encourage her? Support her?

Well, they started a podcast together, called Dying For Sex.

In this episode, Mia Freedman sits down with Nikki Boyer, actress and podcast host, to discuss her lifelong friendship with Molly, some hilarious sex stories and what happens when you lose your best friend.
