  • Series 3 Ep 14 - Chicks In Tech

    Ok, stay with us on this Ep! Yvie and Annie try to talk about women in Tech. Annie thinks STP’s are real trees that talk to each other and Yvie throws around acronyms like she’s bloody Steve Jobs. She casually drops words like Protocol, LAN and Loops like she actually knows what she’s talking about. We really have bitten off more than we can chew. We hope the smart listeners appreciate it. Please don’t @ us. 


    We stop waffling at around the 15 min mark!

  • Series 3 Ep 11 - Chicks in Literature

    Don't be fooled by this weeks ep - we haven't all of sudden decided to do a bread podcast, although if the first 10 mins are anything to go by you might be mistaken. Annie eventually gets to tell Yvie all about Mary Shelley, the amazing writer behind one of the greatest gothic novels of all time - Frankenstein. We chat about Maid which takes Yvie on a much-deserved rant and we highlight young writer Amanda Gorman, who has countless accolades and has written not one but three books this year!


    We stop waffling at 20:33.
