  • Ep 8 Series 2 - Special Guest: Carol Ferone and the story of Edith Cowan

    This week we are joined by the fabulous Carol Ferrone, the time travelling business coach who you’ll recognise from the ABCTV show Back In Time For Dinner and Further Back in Time For Dinner! It was no secret that Yvie and Annie were obsessed with this show and they fan-girled hard when Carol agreed to come on the show and tell them all about Edith Cowan – the first woman in Australian Parliament - she’s even on the $50 dollar note (remember money?). We chat to Carol about corsets, crying and what it was like to live through 100 years of Australian History.


    Annie also tells Yvie all about the origin of the word ‘Misogyny’ in their new segment ‘Word Up’ and they chat air fryers, girl power and Mafs (again).

  • Ep 6 Series 2 - Special Guest: Carla Mattiazzo and the story of her great Nonna Maria!

    This week Annie and Yvie are joined by Carla Mattiazzo - an award winning cabaret artist, writer, producer and podcaster. Carla has just finished a run of her award-winning show 'Catchelorette' at Adelaide's fringe festival which she was forced to put on hold when Covid hit in 2020. Carla quickly realised the show must go on - but in Podcast form and started her podcast 'Catchelorette and friends' - an investigation into the way people love from first crushes to happily ever after...or not. Carla tells us all about the inspiring matriarch of her family the formidable Great Nonna Maria.


    We also chat Megan and Harry, Mickey Rourke and a listener attempts to solve Yvie's riddle from last week.

    This week Yvie has chosen to revisit the remarkable story of Lizzie Magie - probably one of the most frustrating Eps of the season. For centuries the game Monopoly has been credited to a man (lol) but it was actually Lizzie who invented the game years earlier!⁠
