The demise of Australian fashion labels
30:29|Two heritage Australian labels, Cue and Veronika Maine, have gone bust and stylist and author, Sally McKinnon, takes a quick break from Melbourne Fashion Week to join Myf to unpack what went wrong. They look at why the brands lost touch with the customers who grew up wearing them, how the casualisation of work and everyday life changed what we wear, and how fast fashion has changed what we expect to pay, making it impossible for locally made brands to survive.Guest:Sally Mackinnon / Styled By SallyInsta - @styledbysally*Hosted by the queen of culture herself, *The Moment with Myf Warhurst* unpacks ‘The Moment’ that has everyone talking, diving deeper than the headlines to give the details you need in the time you’ve got.

No rules. No regulation. With Simon Taylor
34:58|TV broadcasting is subject to plenty of regulations, but when it comes to podcasting and the rise of YouTube content, it's the wild west out there. Myf is joined by comedian Simon Taylor to talk about his new Stan series The Sonny Disposition, a satire of the podcasting industry. They discuss how hard it's becoming to create satire when real life is already so absurd and how the loudest and most controversial voices are elevated by the algorithm, spreading dangerous misinformation, with almost nobody to stop it.Guest:Simon TaylorInsta @simontaylorfunnyboySimon’s sitcom The Sonny Disposition on Stan NOWSee Simon live simontaylorfunnyboy.com*Hosted by the queen of culture herself, *The Moment with Myf Warhurst* unpacks ‘The Moment’ that has everyone talking, diving deeper than the headlines to give the details you need in the time you’ve got.More Myf:Book - Middle Rage OUT NOWFollow Better at Home - @betterathome_podcastStay ConnectedInstagram @myfwarhurstTikTok @myfwarhurstLinkedIn Myf WarhurstGet In TouchBrands/ Partnerships: Myf@mik.studioShow CreditsHost & Executive Producer: Myf WarhurstExecutive Producer: Amelia ChappelowProducer: Roisin YauEngineer & Editing: Grant OffnerVideo Producer: Lauren CooperCopywriter & Strategy: Antonia MinutoloPhotography: Julia NallesArtwork: Brigitte GreenePartnerships: Dylan Adams hello@mik.studioThis is a MIK Made productionRecorded on Wurundjeri Land

Telling women's stories is RADICAL
33:45|The incredible playwright and author Suzie Miller joins Myf to talk about her follow-up to the global phenomenon Prima Facie, the novel Inter Alia, which looks at the justice system through the eyes of a feminist judge whose son is accused of a crime. They discuss what it's like to watch a story take on a life of its own in 30 languages and 50 countries, the invisible emotional labour working mothers carry, and why men need to start having uncomfortable conversations with their sons about masculinity, porn and consent. Suzie also shares the story behind her new play Strong Is the New Pretty, a love letter to the women who made the AFLW happen, and explains how her work has inspired young women to study law and even changed the way a UK judge directs juries.Guest Suzie Miller (@suziemillerwriter)Novels/Plays: ‘Inter Alia’ and ‘Prima Facie’‘Strong Is The New Pretty’ tickets on sale now at strongisthenewprettyplay.com.au*Hosted by the queen of culture herself, *The Moment with Myf Warhurst* unpacks ‘The Moment’ that has everyone talking, diving deeper than the headlines to give the details you need in the time you’ve got.

Getting deep on songwriting, fear and fame
32:01|Myf is joined by Mark Seymour of iconic band Hunters & Collectors, and they are going deep. They dig into why certain songs outlive their writers and become "public property", and explore the idea of a collective consciousness. Mark also reflects on the intensity and fear that drove Hunters & Collectors in their early days, the "cultural cringe" that shaped Australian music in the '80s, and the dark side of rock and roll that taught him to keep an eye on his own behaviour.Guest Mark Seymour (@markseymourandtheundertow)MARK SEYMOUR ORCHESTRATED - Palais Theatre Nov 26, 2026. *Hosted by the queen of culture herself, *The Moment with Myf Warhurst* unpacks ‘The Moment’ that has everyone talking, diving deeper than the headlines to give the details you need in the time you’ve got.

Meta's cute new gadget is just as sus
31:46|Feeling furious lately? Myf is too. She joins the dots between Meta's new AI charm, which is really just its creepy glasses with a cute face, a study showing films written by women make more money but still don't get the funding, and a world that keeps happening without our consent.
