'I Turned Down Anna Wintour And I'd Do It Again'
5/4/202648 min
Grace sent a vicious bitch session about her assistant… directly to the assistant. Then crawled out of the office on all fours. Cath sent a spicy message to an entire WhatsApp group of under-11 soccer parents and is still avoiding eye contact at training. Ginny proposed hardcore sex on the family chat, sandwiched between her mother-in-law's prayer messages. And Mary accidentally told a business meeting she loved them. Oops.
And what white goods give you a wide-on? Because Mary is evangelical about the power hose and Ginny has feelings about a colander with flaps. Plus a listener is having better sex with her bedside drawer than her husband of 25 years. Dr Ginny has thoughts.
In your ears today: Grace Lam, Ginni Mansberg, Cath Mahoney and Mary Coustas

First 90 secondsGemma Bath0:00
For too long, Australian law didn't just fail survivors, it forced them into silence. Nina Funnell is a Walkley Award-winning journalist and a survivor who helped overturn damaging gag laws in the Australian justice system. She was the driving force behind the campaign that allowed women to finally speak their own names. Her work doesn't just tell stories, it drives change. Hi, I'm Gemma Bath, host of True Crime Conversations, and this very special two-part episode isn't just about the justice system. It's about what happens when women are finally heard, a raw, honest look at the power of a single voice, how silence is shaped, and how women push through it. Hear my conversation with Nina Funnell on True Crime Conversations. Search True Crime Conversations wherever you get your podcasts, or click the link in the show notes to hear Nina's story now.
