Simmone Jade McKinnon was - and is, to many - Stevie from McLeods Daughters. She joined that iconic Australian show fresh from another era-defining TV moment, Baywatch, with a Hollywood star fiancé on her arm and a creative career in full flight. And then everything changed. Simmone and her son Madigan have been living in a caravan and then a shed in her family’s back paddock for the best part of a decade. She’s been making ends meet with carer’s subsidy, odd jobs like jillaroo and by starting her own small business. When she decided to step out of a dark time and back in front of a camera for a reality show earlier this year it was very clearly with one goal in mind - the prize money. On this episode, the first MID conversation about money, you'll hear how all that's been going for Simmone. And you’ll hear what it was like to be on one of the biggest shows in the world and get fired for what you refused to do in lingerie on a beach. How she came back from crippling panic attacks during a high-profile break-up to film wedding scenes for our viewing pleasure and, most importantly, how she’s kept moving and dreaming and pushing on as she’s been parenting her son alone on a very minimal income. Simonne is famous but she’s not rich, and we assume those things go together. Her story might not be yours, but there’s plenty of familiar territory here. Please enjoy MID, Season 2, Episode 3: Money, with Simmone Jade Mackinnon.

Anora is the movie that swept the Oscars this year, taking home Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress, Best Original Screenplay and Best Film Editing. It’s also one of the wildest movie watching experiences we have ever had, so now it’s time for a brutally honest review on the movie that everyone is talking about. From the unexpected story behind the film’s plot, to the many controversies that surrounded it’s release and some eyebrow raising stories from how it was filmed, the conversation around Anora is just as intriguing as the movie itself. Plus, we need to talk about the film’s ending, and how it left our entire cinema speechless.THE END BITSThe Spill podcast is on Instagram here.
