Something To Talk About

Dr Chris Brown is a man who doesn't stay still for long. Since moving networks from Ten to Seven three years ago, the former Bondi Vet, I'm A Celeb and Dancing With The Stars host is back front and centre to launch two new projects that have taken him across Australia and around the globe, leaving him with what he calls a “very healthy” relationship with his frequent flyer account.
And after years of interest and speculation about his love life, that’s not the only relationship Dr Chris opens up about in this conversation. He tells us what it has been like to have fathered nine babies and been married seven times – at least according to the celebrity rumour mill – and explains how he is, indeed, currently in relationship with a woman who “just gets it”.
Chris also reveals the challenges of hosting a renovation show when you’re a colourblind vet, how his mother’s 13 year journey with Alzheimer’s has shaped how he approaches his day-to-day life, and tells the wild story of how he unexpectedly found himself getting charged by a herd of “cocaine hippos” in rural Colombia.
My Reno Rules premieres Tuesday from 7.30pm on Seven Network and 7Plus.

Across more than four decades as a journalist and television presenter, Lisa Wilkinson has told plenty of compelling stories. But in the past five years, she has spent more time making headlines than reading them.
Now, Lisa sits down for her first interview in more than four years to unpack the personal toll of the legal battles that have consumed her life since June 2022, and discuss the unlikely project she threw herself into during that tumultuous time: a new book she has written about a woman named Evelyn Marsden, the only Australian-born survivor of the Titanic disaster.
In this episode of the Stellar podcast, Lisa opens up about how digging into Evelyn’s life story helped her put the adversities she was facing into perspective. She also answers the question: would she have done anything differently in the five years since her headline-making interview with Brittany Higgins went to air on The Project? Plus: Lisa sets the record straight about her departure from that show in November 2022.
Lisa’s new book, The Titanic Story Of Evelyn, is on sale from Tuesday, April 14.

When a 16-year-old Jessica Mauboy stood on a makeshift stage in the middle of the desert for her Australian Idol audition, she was just a shy kid from Darwin with a massive voice. Within a few years, she was catapulted from the Top End to the top of the charts.
Earlier this year, Jessica returned to the Australian Idol stage – this time as a mentor, stepping in to fill Kyle Sandilands’ empty chair. But she hasn't forgotten the hurdles she faced or the comments about her body, which she now sees through an entirely different lens.
In this episode of the Stellar podcast, she explains how Kyle’s bluntness helped her develop thick skin at a young age, what was behind her decision to leave her long-time record label and become her own "boss lady", and how her husband Themeli Magriplis and their 14-month-old daughter Mia keep her grounded through it all.

In November last year, newsreader and weather presenter Amber Sherlock was let go from her role at the Nine Network, an announcement that made headlines and had paparazzi camped outside her house.
Suddenly, after almost 20 years at the network, Amber found herself without the security of a full-time job, only three weeks ahead of her 50th birthday.
Now, she is looking towards the future and establishing her next step in a rapidly changing media landscape – and an industry she believes still treats men and women very differently.
On this episode of the Stellar podcast, Amber talks for the first time about her shock departure from a job she thought was safe, how she feels about #jacketgate 10 years on and, given this is the first time she hasn't worked in her adult life, the benefits of no longer being a “shift worker”.
