Three’s a charm! Chris shares an unhinged idea for a joke she recorded in the middle of the night and they discuss fever-dream-esque kids TV programmes. Sarah shares an article about turtles, leading to Chris telling several horrifying stories about childhood pets. Chris shares some handy beauty tips from the 40’s including eating vegetables, swimming and bending over. Sarah rails against garden salads and Chris rails against overcooked meat. There’s a protracted conversation about sharks, and Chris recalls being in an earthquake.
