Amanda and Anita are taking a little holiday break. A chance to recharge, overindulge in tea, and maybe plan a few more of their famous walks. But we didn’t want to leave you high and dry without your dose of chatter, so we’ve lined up some of our favorite episodes to keep you company over the holidays.

We asked the Double A Chattery Facebook community to let us know what you wanted us to talk about in the lead up to Christmas, and this episode is the result! We answer your questions, from holiday traditions, managing family dynamics, and how to deal with the first Christmas without a loved one.

The holiday season is upon us, and with it, a new trend: the rise of being sober-ish. In this episode, Amanda and Anita discuss drinking habits, the effects of alcohol on health, and the changing patterns of alcohol use among younger generations.

On today's show, there's a couple of bits and pieces we've gleaned over the week that we wanted to share with you. First up, Anita's heard about the benefits of 'grounding', and she's feeling cynical. Meanwhile, Amanda has been hanging around puppies feeling aggressive towards puppies and babies?! Should we be worried?

Amanda came across Lise Wortley, an adventurer who has a rather unique was of celebrating female explorers (that most of us have never heard of!) Rather than describe what she did, we decided to invite her on the show to tell you herself.

Are you lonely? Apparently 25% of Australians are, and Anita's been thinking about it. But before we get into that, a very important discussion about office chairs, and we respond to your feedback on Chivalry.

As you know, we recently set up a Facebook Community, and we've loved seeing you all getting to know each other there and hearing your thoughts on the show. Over there, we asked you how simple your wedding was in comparison to today's, and heard some rather unique wedding experiences! (Nudist wedding, anyone?)

In a previous episode, we spoke about how a kindness is never wasted. Does the same hold true for an act of chivalry? We also discuss that viral Saoirse Ronin moment, before jumping into this week's glimmers.
