Phoebe Burgess

And I don't know if anyone's noticed, but I do have ADHD.

I know that's not as weighty as it used to be because everyone's like, hi, my name's Phoebe.

I have ADHD.

Do you?

Like, I don't need to know what people think of my feet.

Wicky

feet, Phoebe.

Is that for Tiffy? Yes.

But still, it's unsurprisingly caused the internet to spiral into its usual debate, tradition versus patriarchy versus personal choice.

Um, this has also come as Phoebe Burgess just last week spoke to the Stella Podcast about keeping her married name post-divorce from footballer Sam Burgess.

And there were plenty of opinions to be had about that too.

So what do we think? Is name changing something to be expected or is it outdated?

... all have the same name as their children.

Yeah.

That's what Phoebe Burgess has said, that, you know, she committed to taking this name when she got married, and then she has these children, and she didn't wanna, A, make things any more difficult for them in having that, the separation, to have this other next step of her changing her name and having a different name.

The Phoebe Burgess thing, I understand that, and it's perhaps a bit more layered because she's divorced.

when I can't read it or I can't- my emotions are too big to understand it or whatever.

And she said, "Phoebe, cannot go out there today." She wrote me a message saying, "This is just disgusting." There was this throng of people just waiting-

Mm

... to get that picture of someone who's shown up to go to work, or heaven forbid, to show a face and smile-

That's, but that's what I mean.

Like, how can I talk about dating without that?

But also, Phoebe-

It's, it's more like, oh, yes, like I s- you know, if I was able to still be free and easygoing and, like, sexy and charming in my place or yours, not my place.

Apparently a lot.

We've just had a little bit of what we're going to hear on the pod, and you can listen or watch Overshare with Phoebe Burgess, Hannah Ferrier, now on the free iHeart app.

New episodes drop every Monday.

Thank you for coming in.

Okay, people are talking a lot about Zoe Nation.

Is Zoe Nation the person who's just announced a new podcast with Phoebe Burgess? Not sure, but yeah, why are people talking about her? They're saying that she's having baby number four, but I don't ever see her partner.

I'm being nosy.

Oh, interesting.

Oh my gosh, it's been 40 minutes already.

Just have too much fun and then the time goes so quick.

Okay, Phoebe Burgess's podcast is not with...

That person I mentioned before, it's with Hannah from Below Deck.

I'm Sarah Lamarquand, your host, and every week I sit down with some of the biggest names in the country because when Australia's celebrities are ready to talk, they come to Something to Talk About.

When Phoebe Burgess

was filling out the census this year, she really wasn't sure what to write down when it came to job description.

Content creator? Journalist?

She also shares what it feels like to see her former husband build a new life and family overseas.

And as she launches a new project with Below Deck Mediterranean star Hannah Ferrier, she reflects on what else might come next.

Phoebe Burgess, welcome to the Stellar Podcast.

Sarah, thank you so much for having me.
