    Are We Actually Allowed to Age Anymore? | Madonna, Plastic Surgery & Human-Brained Mice [Episode 38]
    Oct 6 2026
    This week, Grab Her By The Mic has left the studio and relocated to a bed at the beautiful Ardour Lilianfels in the Blue Mountains, where the microphones, cameras and lighting equipment have made our hotel room look considerably more like the set of a low-budget porno than a podcast.We recap a girls’ weekend involving massages, crosswords, room service, and a couple of emergency calls home before the discovery that apparently mothers can leave for two nights without society completely collapsing.Then it is time for The Weekly Spiral. An influencer brings an actual ring light to a concert, scientists create mice with an alarming amount of human brains, and a band releases a song lasting less than one second.Philsy takes over the The HyperFix with plastic surgery, beauty standards and the increasingly blurry line between ageing well and apparently not being allowed to age at all. We get into Madonna, the cosmetic procedures we would and absolutely would not consider, overseas surgery, the makeovers we grew up watching and whether our idea of “looking good” was decided for us years ago.Then Hannah tests Philsy with Song or Bullshit for The SideQuest, to see if she can tell the difference between a real-life song or something Han pulled from her arse. Plus: our Obsessions of the Week, a hair tool from Philsy and then there’s… Hotel Hannah; and a Weekly Manifest dedicated to becoming temporarily unavailable.Chaos Correctional (Fact-Check Corner):Stick around after the outro, where we fact-check the things we said with entirely too much confidence.This week we correct:Human-brained mice: not 90% human brain. Australia DOES screen for psychological suitability before cosmetic procedures.Lourdes Leon is not 16. Or 18. Heidi Montag: it wasn't eight hours, it was 10.Overseas surgery: we cannot confidently declare overseas cosmetic surgery generally “on par” with Australia. Links & Things We Mentioned🌀 The Weekly SpiralRing Light Gate at Ariana Grande concert.Stanford's xenocortical mice whose cortical tissue became more than 90% human by volume.Coastal Fire Dept. - Don't Let The Fire Go Out (the song that lasts less than one second, contains the lyric “Fire”)🔎 The HyperFix: Plastic Surgery Australian cosmetic surgery rules covering patient suitability, motivations, expectations, body dysmorphic disorder screening and referral where psychological concerns are identified.Body dysmorphic disorder screening and patient assessment FAQInformation for anyone considering anti-wrinkle injections or dermal fillers.The expanded rules for non-surgical procedures, including cosmetic injections and fillers, came into effect on 2 September 2025.Smartraveller: Going overseas for a medical procedureSmartraveller: Sun, sand and cosmetic surgery🎲 The SideQuest: Song or Bullshit The story of Vulfpeck's SleepifyThe Flaming Lips explain ZaireekaBull of Heaven experimental-music project responsible for Like a Wall in Which an Insect Lives and Gnaws, the absurdly long composition discussed in the game.John Cage - ORGAN²/ASLSP💖 Obsession of the Week Philsy’s BondiBoost Infrared Thermal Bounce BrushHotel Hannah - technically not available for purchase.Loved this episode?Hit follow / subscribe so you don’t miss future chaosLeave us a 5-star review if you cackled, cried, or felt seenScreenshot & tag us on socials so we know you’re listening🎙 New episodes every Tuesday👉 Follow us: @grabherbythemic📩 speaktous@grabherbythemic.com

  • Celebrity Oversharing, Questionable Science & a 131m Meat Stick

    Celebrity Oversharing, Questionable Science & a 131m Meat Stick
    Sep 28 2026
    Have celebrities become too accessible?This week, Han and Philsy investigate what happened between the era of untouchable celebrities... and whatever we’re doing now, where we know an influencer’s coffee order, boyfriend history, dog’s name and family drama before breakfast.The HyperFix takes us through the evolution of celebrity culture, reality TV, influencers, parasocial relationships and the rise of what can only be described as professionally produced authenticity.Then The Weekly Spiral brings us: a mother fighting off a coyote with a thong, America spending more than a year engineering a 131-metre Slim Jim, and scientists burying underwear, investigating cockroach milk and repeatedly stepping on venomous snakes in the name of research.Naturally, this leads directly into a SideQuest called Peer Reviewed or Pulled From My Arse, where Philsy has to decide whether scientists genuinely gave Viagra to jet-lagged hamsters.For Obsession of the Week, Philsy has found a pregnancy-friendly body-care range and Han has inhaled Netflix’s Earle Meets World, thereby personally contributing to the exact influencer-access phenomenon she just spent twenty minutes analysing.Honestly, an educational program.Sort of.Chaos Correctional (Fact-Check Corner):Stick around after the outro for Chaos Correctional - where Han cleans up the confident nonsense we said on air with just enough research to be dangerous.This week we correct:Pregnancy cheese: pasteurised does not automatically mean pregnancy-safe.ADHD reviews: no universal full reassessment every three or six months.Vivid dreams: remembering them often has more to do with waking during the night.ADHD meds: motivation is part of the story, but “motivation, not focus” was too simplistic.DIY Pap smears: self-collected cervical screening is real. DIY Pap smear is not.Listener voice memos: very doable. Giovanni, your microphone awaits.Buried undies: they were clean. Thank Christ.“I’ll remember that”: not a scientifically recognised system.Shaving cream vs wee: TikTok is more confident than the evidence.Elvis and Priscilla: she was 14, not 13, when they met.Jet lag: east is often worse, but west absolutely still counts.Geriatric pregnancy: 35 is the traditional threshold, but “advanced maternal age” is now the preferred term.Links & Things We Mentioned🌀 The Weekly SpiralArizona mum Brittany Cardinal fights off a coyote attacking her four-year-old daughter with a flip-flop. Slim Jim’s official Guinness World Record: 130.896 metres of continuous meat snack. The full gloriously strange list of 2026 Ig Nobel Prize winners, including buried underpants, cockroach milk, nose-blowing aerodynamics, splash-free urinals, mosquito 3D printing and deliberately annoying venomous snakes. The actual buried-underpants soil-health study. 🔎 The HyperFixThe 2026 systematic review of 76 peer-reviewed studies on parasocial relationships between consumers and online influencers. Netflix on how DoorDash, Dunkin’ and Pantene were integrated directly into Earle Meets World. 🎲 The SideQuest: Peer Reviewed or Pulled From My ArseSwearing really can increase pain tolerance. Participants survived icy water for longer while repeating swear words. Pigeons really were taught to distinguish Monet from Picasso. Researchers really did raise chickens wearing artificial tails to investigate how non-avian dinosaurs may have walked. 💖 Obsession of the WeekPhilsy’s obsession - Bangn Body’s pregnancy-friendly body care and Firming Lotion. Han’s obsession - Earle Meets World on Netflix.

  • Apparently, Tracking Your Unconscious Husband Is Coercive Control [Episode 35]

    Apparently, Tracking Your Unconscious Husband Is Coercive Control [Episode 35]
    Sep 8 2026
    Apparently, using Find My Friends to locate your heavily intoxicated, unreachable husband face-down under a tree now makes you an abuser.At least, according to TikTok.This week, we revisit the Episode 33 clip that somehow escaped containment, racked up hundreds of thousands of views and led the internet to diagnose Philsy with coercive control, while simultaneously calling her husband a red flag and telling her to go back to eating KFC.Naturally, we investigate.What actually is coercive control? When does location sharing cross the line from safety into surveillance? Does gender change how people read the exact same behaviour? And can we please stop turning serious psychological and legal terminology into internet shorthand for “I didn’t like that”?Elsewhere, the Weekly Spiral takes us to Chester Zoo, where Jodie Foster, a 50kg reticulated python, has beaten cancer using a treatment normally used on humans.Then we head to Beijing, where humanoid robots are simultaneously learning to outrun Usain Bolt and absolutely failing to learn how to stop.Very reassuring.Philsy discovers that incognito mode is not, in fact, the dark web. We attempt a viral rhyming game with deeply questionable results. Han accidentally launches an investigation into historical nipple rouge. Philsy recommends her current MCoBeauty obsession, and Han recommends Bron Lewis’s brutally funny book I’m Not Mad (Anymore).Plus, Chaos Correctional returns to answer the important questions we left hanging, including how old Jodie Foster actually is in snake years, whether sex workers really rouged their nipples, and the crucial scientific distinction between melanin and melatonin.Another educational service from Grab Her By The Mic.You’re welcome.Chaos Correctional (Fact-Check Corner):Stick around after the outro for Chaos Correctional - where Han cleans up the confident nonsense we said on air with just enough research to be dangerous.This week we correct:Jodie’s treatment cost: still a mystery.Robot Games countries: 16 confirmed, full list apparently classified.Nipple rouge: real. The prostitute bit was a historical leap.Pregnancy nipples: melanin, not melatonin. One syllable away from science.Bron Lewis: brilliant live. Eye contact achieved. Heckling tragically denied.Links & Things We Mentioned🌀 The Weekly SpiralJodie Foster the python’s world-first cancer treatment at Chester ZooReuters: Humanoid robots beat Usain Bolt’s 100m record at the Beijing GamesA humanoid robot loses control and thrashes on the floor during a live demonstration at the 2026 World Robot Conference in Beijing, prompting operators to rush in.🔎 The HyperFixeSafety Commissioner: What coercive control meanseSafety research on location-sharing and relationships💖 Obsession of the WeekPhilsy’s Obsession - MCoBeauty Summer Stick Cheek & Lip Cream in Mykonos at BIG WHan’s obsession - Bron Lewis: I’m Not Mad (Anymore)Bron Lewis official links, book and tour infoLoved this episode?Hit follow / subscribe so you don’t miss future chaosLeave us a 5-star review if you cackled, cried, or felt seenScreenshot & tag us on socials so we know you’re listening🎙 New episodes every Tuesday👉 Follow us: @grabherbythemic📩 speaktous@grabherbythemic.com
