A hot new recaps series just entered the villa... Abbie is here to tell you all you need to know about Season 8 of Love Island Australia! Episodes 1 & 2 we get to know all our islanders and sow the seeds of some drama to come...
CW: This episode contains discussions of cancer, bowel movements, fear of food, and suicide.
Gretta Ray's new album Heartsong is born from grief - but not just the grief of a relationship ending, and the loss of loved one. For the first time, Gretta shares the full story of her hospitalisation in 2024. She takes Abbie through the almost 6 weeks she spent in hospital, when she was forced to reckon not only her career changing, but her entire life. After multiple complications, personal grief, and a long journey of mental and physical recovery, Gretta has emerged with a new outlook on life - but just don't tell her 'everything happens for a reason'...
Have you ever been down so bad you made verbatim theatre? Well... Writer, producer, actor, and comedian Bridie Connell has seen it happen first hand... She shares a high school inspiration behind her sensational show Fuccbois: Live In Concert, and makes Abbie's dreams come true with a very special re-enactment.
