  Everyone’s in Europe and We’re Furious About It 14.07.2026 35m

  It’s just Mary and Caleb on this week's episode of Unserious with Liz away - which is appropriate because apparently everyone else is as well? Why is every person you know in Europe right now? They also get into the latest trend on social media, which is the ‘Netflix Documentary’ that we all are inevitably going to be in about our workplaces and how toxic they are - but are there going to be repercussions for those putting these videos out into the world? Finally they get to touch on friendship breakups and how they can be more painful than a romantic breakup, that is if they can agree on if it’s a man vs woman thing in the first place.  Watch this episode on YouTube Read more on news.com.au Follow us on Instagram and TikTok Unserious is hosted by Sky News Host & Commentator Caleb Bond, Journalist Mary Madigan and news.com.au Deputy Editor Liz Burke.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  Liz is back, and we are diving straight into Anthony Albanese’s absolute comms disaster of a podcast interview. Was Albo’s rapid-fire game about Kylie Minogue harmless fun, or completely unbefitting of a Prime Minister? Then, we shift to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s obscene Madison Square Garden wedding extravaganza, and we judge every single tacky detail. Plus: Caleb calls for "Singapore-style" punishment for people who don't return shopping trolleys, and Mary shares her literal park trauma after a teenager on an e-bike made a highly unhinged comment about her Chihuahua.
