🚨NEW SEASON ALERT🚨 What are we yammering on about, you ask? Oh just egg freezing, sex work, capitalism… just your typical casual brunch chatter.
Tiny houses are "absolutely part of the solution" to the housing crisis, says @SolutionsTiny founder Janine Strachan. So why are there relatively few of them in Australia?
Find out on the seventh and last episode of The Kicker.

i’m definitely not doing this to distract from my swapping @emile_pavlich and @FaithMacale’s titles mistake

IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION that @FaithMacale and @emile_pavlich's titles are swapped in the graphics. Please ignore this. Apologies all! Brain fog is very much persistent.....

Reporter @emile_pavlich kayaked his way through our fourth lockdown. He speaks at least three languages (totally not a flex...)
He hopes to work for ABC regional in the future, where he'll still be happily slurping on his favourite shin ramen with milk & broccoli 🥦🍜

Producer @riestellaa is obsessed with many things, but most of all is her ginger cat & Taylor Swift. She could eat Nyonya curry all day & swears by Prima Taste instant noodles.
In Singapore, she was a lifestyle writer and video producer, and hopes to continue on this trajectory.

Episode 6: Cosmetic Capitalism has been out for a week now (RIP me still knee-deep in assignments).
Tune in to hear host @FaithMacale and reporter @emile_pavlich discuss the cosmetic industry and its capitalistic practices along with @laurenmeisner's expertise.
Link is here for all you lazy people open.spotify.com/episode/1RN…
due to my procrastination, i will be introducing the team behind episode 5 way too late (episode 6 is already out but let's talk about that another time)
Host @celie_hay is most passionate about sports journalism.
Now that lockdown's over and borders are soon to reopen, she's stoked for a good hangout sesh with the mates, some sporting events and travelling ✈️

Outside of journalism, producer @jacican grows and cooks her own food all day (talk about impressive). She's currently obsessed with Women's Weekly cookbooks.
She also bakes cakes and gives them away frequently, so follow her for a chance to snag the goods!
In 2014, Facebook introduced egg freezing as an employee benefit. Since then, several Silicon Valley companies have followed suit.
In Ep 5, @MattHarveyStuff & @celie_hay chat about deeper implications.
@mollyljohnston weighs in on if Australian companies will soon do the same.

Host Matilda Lloyd prefers cooking without the use of a recipe, but instead, by improvising with leftovers #rebelwithacause
After graduation, she hopes to score a copywriting job, though she's always dreamed of being a screenwriter.

Producer @ellen__blake is a very very tall person. Six feet two, in fact! Unfortunately, hand-eye coordination doesn't come with the height in her case.
Having previously majored in history and international studies, she hopes to dabble in political and/or cultural journalism.
