Mamamia Out Loud

The Women Quietly Quitting Their Husbands & Your High School Ghost

26 Nov 2025

Description

Would you partner notice if you 'quiet quit' your relationship? You know, quietly moving into separate bedrooms, watching all your own shows in different rooms of the house at night, never socialising together, taking separate holidays... Plenty of people are doing it, and probably always have. So, is it always a bad thing? And is it possible to un-quit?Also, Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo and the world's most-irritating press tour. Yes, Wicked For Good is out and you will not have missed the two stars coo-ing over each other on global red carpets. Are they the world's greatest girlfriends, or are they playing us? And when did press tours become performance art? And... what are high school reunions for? It's long been predicted that social-media-stalking has killed the reunion, but Amelia just went to her 25th and she had a revelation.  Plus, Jessie, Amelia and Holly share the 'plate' they take to BYO social events, and what "some cheese in a plastic bag" says about you.  Support independent women's media  Read The Women Quiet Quitting Their Husbands by Monica Corcoran Harel in The Cut, here.  What To Listen To Next:  Listen to our latest episode: The 5 Days You Should Schedule Every Month Listen: The Most Telling Detail In That Meghan Sussex Profile Listen: ‘I Was An Ugly Child’ & The 5-Second Underthinking Rule Listen: Everything That Shouldn't Be Embarrassing But Absolutely Is Listen: So That's The Reason I Feel Bad About… My Eyelids?

Do you too inundated by messages as I got a few from women wearing leggings feeling really victimised by Monday's show? Obsessed. There was a video of a woman exercising and she's wearing her headphones and she's like, personally victimised by today's Mamma Mia out loud. And she flashed her phone down as she was wearing her leggings and I'm like, oh no, it's okay.

70.503 - 76.731 Amelia Lester

Can I be clear that I was extremely uncool in high school? Do not take sartorial advice from me.

76.711 - 101.52 Holly Wainwright

Hello and welcome to Mamma Mia Out Loud. It's what women are actually talking about on Wednesday the 26th of November. I'm Holly Wainwright. I'm Amelia Luster. And I am Jessie Stephens. And here's what's on our agenda for today. What colour is your aura? I'm just asking for Ariana Grande. Also, school reunions, who are they for? Why do we go? Amelia went recently and had a realisation.

101.5 - 105.209 Holly Wainwright

And the women quietly quitting their husbands.

105.55 - 131.3 Jessie Stephens

But first, Jessie Stephens. We are entering into the social season. It's December literally next week. And I am in three group chats where I'm being asked what plate I am bringing. and I have discovered that at 34 years old I need a plate. So I'm envious of people who have like an iconic cake. Everyone goes, mate, you bring that flourless chocolate cake. Or it's a dip. It's often a dip.
