  1. Holly Wainwright· Host0:00

    [upbeat music] Hello, and welcome to Mamamia Out Loud. It's what women are actually talking about on Wednesday, May the 27th. I'm Holly Wainwright.

  2. Amelia Lester· Host0:10

    I'm Amelia Lester.

  3. Claire Stephens· Host0:12

    And I'm Claire Stephens.

  4. Holly Wainwright· Host0:13

    And here's what's made our agenda for today.

  5. Claire Stephens· Host0:15

    A recap of the Enhanced Games that absolutely no one asked for- [laughs] ... but I have been obsessed.

I love you and your content, but being someone who is 37 and now just being diagnosed with endometriosis, facing a new world of chronic illness and potentially fertility issues, it's hard having your bump always there. Please be mindful of others."

  12. Holly Wainwright· Host1:22

    Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

  13. Amelia Lester· Host1:24

    Now Tully, who actually used to work at Mamamia, I am told- Yeah, she was, um, she did a podcast for Mamamia,
