  • What Does It Take To Be Happy?
    May 22 2024

    If you’re struggling to find happiness given the state of the world or even the state of the economy -- you’re not alone. So what can you do to elevate your mood? How much control do we really have over emotions?

    Azure thinks the person who said money can’t buy happiness, simply doesn’t have enough of it.

    While Antoinette has read a bunch of research papers on the science of happiness, because she finds briefs and data soothing in times of sadness and chaos.

    We also hear from our listeners -- who share the little and big things they do to find happiness.

  • Hey Dr, Can You Stop Gaslighting Me Please?
    May 15 2024

    The default patient in medical research has typically been a white, heterosexual man from Pennsylvania. Let’s call him Andrew. So where does that leave everyone else in medicine?

    There’s increasing evidence of the way women’s symptoms and conditions are downplayed or ignored in healthcare. But move over medical misogyny - medical gaslighting is here not only to borrow therapy speak, but to broaden the even more overlooked populations in healthcare. This includes POC, the poor, people with disability, LGBTQI+ and the elderly.

    This episode will explore what is needed to address medical gaslighting -- systemically -- but also what individuals can do.

    The Antoinettes also share their recent experiences of gaslighting, although one Antoinette has been so effectively gaslit, she struggles to remember it happening to her!

  • A Prank. 3 Feminists. Outrage. The Politics of Apologies
    May 8 2024

    What was meant to be a funny hosting gig, spiralled when one of The Antoinettes joined two renowned feminists and television pranksters The Inspired Unemployed. Let's talk about it.

    Before the Daily Mail uses the over the top cliche, we want to get there first - Antoinette Lattouf has 'broken her silence' over the prank that didn't go as planned. (insert dramatic music!)

    WTF happened? Was it really a shock that some audience members weren't happy? And what do you do when intention doesn't align with impact? This episode unpacks it all. One Antoinette is open and reflective, the other is still in hysterics. The Antoinettes explore public apologies, a woman's margin for error and if comedy and prank shows only have space for blokey men.

    Look after yourself. It's a shit show out there! We'll catch you again next Thursday.
