Podcast: Mia & Jamila talk drugs in sport and Chrissie Swan.

By MIA FREEDMAN

I spent a lot of time thinking over the Christmas holidays about what fun things we could do on Mamamia. One of the things I came up with was podcasts. Yes, we have the daily radio show on the Today network but I wanted something different to that. Something a bit more behind-the-scenes.

So I thought MM’s Managing Editor, Jamila Rizvi, and I would sit down and talk about the biggest stories on the site this week. What Everyone’s Talking About.

Naturally, the first Mamamia podcast we recorded this week is about: sport. Because it’s a well known fact that I am A SPORTS NUT. Can’t get enough of the stuff. Those bats and balls and bikes and… hold me.

We also managed to segue into a discussion about Chrissie Swan and this story, which has polarised a lot of people this week. It’s only 20 minutes and it’s very typical of how we talk in the office – no script, no structure.

Next week Jam and I are going to cover more stories.

Enjoy.

Feel free to leave comments about what we said or the stories in general. We’d love to hear your feedback!

I've just listened to the podcast and I really enjoyed it. It was interesting to listen to (felt kind of like a longer version of the 'girls on the grill' segment on the today show which I love) and I found myself wanting to pause it to interject my own thoughts into the conversation, haha. Looking forward to the next one!

Loved that. Perfect length.

For what it's worth, Mia, you were echoing my thoughts on sport. I just don't get it. Never grew up with it, never got interested. Meh. My family always emphasised intellectual over physical pursuits.
