New Year, Same Hate Comments! 2026 is here and yet our tiddies are still getting banned on Instagram but that slur filled hate comment remains untouched. In this episode of Don't Say That! I am joined by an astounding guest co-host... she is no stranger to the spotlight (stage, screen and online) and as suggested in the title, I'm quite inspired by her in every possible way - it's THE Milo Hartill everyone. We scroll deep down our comment sections exposing our favourite and least favourite hate comments, discuss quitting the industry and admit how some friendships take time to flurry after rocky first impressions...

It’s officially Queermas on this side of town! In this episode of Don’t Say That!, Emma takes a trip down memory lane - from the first time she felt truly seen bringing her first girlfriend home for the holidays, to returning home this year as the only gay family member. She unpacks the complicated feelings that come with family, old roles you didn’t realise you’d slip back into, and not only shares her controversial Christmas wish but also the coping tools she uses to survive the family get-together without dying of gay panic (and not in the hot cool fun way).

This week on Don’t Say That! we’re unpacking our brains...help us all. We dive into the realities of living with ADHD, late diagnoses (cause we're never early), and how honest we should really be when talking about our ADHD struggles at work. Spoiler: if we're crying on the floor, I vote we tell them we’re crying on the floor!!

I’m not tackling this convo alone, I’m joined by the brilliantly talented singer/songwriter and fellow ADHD sister, ASTON!

Speaking of unmasking and high masking... This week it's all about the IT witches of the century! In honour of Wicked: For Good hitting theatres, this episode delves deep into the realities of being a Glinda or an Elphaba and the pipeline that Wicked carries to queerness, unmasking and privilege. Spoiler alert...I'm not Elphaba and I think it's important to talk about why.

On today's new episode, I am so honoured to be holding space (and fingers) with our wickedly talented co-host Tracy Gilchrist - established journalist, queer media specialist and viral sensation of the Wicked part one press tour.

Today we ask the classic questions that nobody else seems to... like, is marriage even for love anymore? is it taboo to fall in love with someone in another country and plan your engagement the same year? and why are lesbians more likely to sprain their fingers? Tracy talks how the viral moment with Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande changed her life and we finally learn what "Queer Media" really is.

This episode I am joined by a very special co-host, the OG Aussie IT girl...my unofficial sister AND on screen bully, Caitlin Stasey! We met filming Class Of '07 (Amazon Prime) and somehow now we fight like it's a competitive sport and it is (for us).

Today we ask the essential questions that nobody else seems to... like, is it actually weird to ask the local hot barista guy for sperm? (Spoiler: NO we deserve it.) We get real about being female actors in this day and age, shameful moments, air out our past fights and debate why people who don't like cats shouldn't have children.

It's the very first episode of Don’t Say That! oh my gosh, I'm scared. This episode is all about getting pretty real about the long, weird, exhausting AND wonderful road to figuring myself out as a neurodivergent and queer woman. From childhood sleepovers to an anxiety diagnosis, from high school survival mode to the acting and influencer world that practically rewards masking...this episode is reflecting back on the moments that led to discover who I am today.

We talk masking for survival, first experiences, people pleasing, and the moment it finally clicked...oh, that wasn’t “just anxiety,” that was me trying to function in a world that wasn’t built for my brain. COOL.

If you’ve ever felt misunderstood, too sensitive or like you’ve been performing a character for the majority of your life - this pod is for you my friend.
