How’s your week going? Our regular Wednesday Open Post is where we get to let you in on what’s been going on behind-the-scenes at Mamamia and you tell us and each other….well, anything really.
The show
On the panel this week we have Sam de Brito (he’s back!), Cosmo editor (and new mother) Bronwyn McCahon, author (Holy Cow) and broadcaster, Sarah MacDonald and Get Up’s national director, Simon Sheikh.
And if you’re one of the thousands of MM readers who read, commented and shared this post 9 Myths about vaccination – BUSTED, you’ll be wanting to see our interview with the brave and beautiful Toni and Dave McCaffery, who lost their daughter Dana when she died of whooping cough at four weeks of age.
We’ve also invited into the studio the author of the vaccination myths post, Vice President of the Australian Skeptics, Dr Rachael Dunlop, who has been tirelessly responding to comments on the post (along with many other health professionals who have joined in) on the post. Thanks to all of them for fighting the good fight to protect babies like Dana. There’s a surprising and disturbing twist to this story that you won’t want to miss.
Friday 9:15pm and the show will be repeated on Saturday afternoon at 2:15pm. We’ll post it online over the weekend.
I’m really really proud of last week’s show – I think it’s our best so far. FINALLY I feel like we’re getting into the swing of things and doing justice to the website. It really felt like a dinner party (albeit with jelly snakes rather than wine – must change that…) with laughs, serious bits, debate and interesting conversation. Take a look!

On my mind this week: I was just reading all the angry comments on Diva's facebook page, everyone is angry about their new playboy range of necklaces and earring! Im surprised that I have only just heard about all of this uprise about Diva!! wow its really interesting reading all the angry comments on their facebook page. There is even a petition and a call to boycotte Diva, There are good arguments for both sides but alot of people are not happy about them selling playboy to young children who dont understand what playboy is all about, which isunderstandable, everyone is allowed their own opinions, However Diva has responded and are going ahead with selling the playboy range in its stores. What does everyone think? Mia you should do a post on it it is really very interesting!
Looking forward to going away for the weekend, except I woke up feeling flu-ish this morning, bummer.
I've never been a fan of skim, or fat-reduced milk, I eat healthy food and I see no good reason not to enjoy my milk. I'm drinking Country Valley - it has no permeate in it, and it's yummy!
I love the penis calendar, where can I get one?
