Dannii Minogue on matchmaking, motherhood & her lowest moment
When Dannii Minogue convinced her parents to let her try out for Young Talent Time at the age of seven, she had no idea of the impact it would have – not only on her life, but that of the entire family, too. Because back in the early ‘80s, Minogue was just another surname in the suburban phone book. Today, of course, it’s so much more than that. It’s Dannii. It’s Kylie. It’s disco and dancing and reality TV. It’s World Pride and Mardi Gras and being an ally. On this episode of Something To Talk About, Dannii joins Sarrah to discuss her love of matchmaking, her “lowest moment” – and what it was really like growing up Minogue. You can see more of Dannii Minogue on I Kissed A Girl, streaming on Binge, and, as of February 20, also on I Kissed A Boy with new episodes dropping 8.30pm on Thursdays on Binge.

Karl Stefanovic on family, fear and the price of fame
He is one of the most recognisable names (and faces) in the country, but despite the fact he has been beaming into Australian homes for 20 years as co-host of the Today show, Karl Stefanovic remains in many ways an elusive man. He rarely gives in-depth interviews, but on this episode of Something To Talk About, Karl sits down for a no-holds-barred chat, with no topic off limits… and even a few tears. He opens up about everything: family dramas; his relationships with the seven women who have sat alongside him at the desk; and why, as someone who believes he has the “worst sense of humour in the world”, he is shocked that two decades on, he still has a job… Watch the full episode with Karl here. You can hear more from Karl on the Today Show, weekday mornings from 5.30 AM on Nine. Something To Talk About is a podcast by Stellar, hosted by Sarrah Le Marquand.

Why Tammin Sursok no longer ‘fakes it’
Tammin Sursok is an accomplished actor, singer, podcaster and producer best known for her roles in hit TV series like Home and Away, The Young and The Restless and Pretty Little Liars. From the outside, her life looks glamorous. She splits her time between Sydney and Nashville with her husband and two children. But if you follow her on Instagram or listen to her podcast, you know that Tammin is not one bit interested in portraying her life as picture perfect. That’s because, as she says, “I don’t know how to fake it.” On this episode of Something To Talk About, Tammin joins Sarrah to discuss everything from the nerve-wracking early days of her career to turning down Robyn’s hit single ‘Dancing On My Own’ to why it’s never been more important to speak up for women’s rights and be a proud feminist.
