Amanda and Anita chat with Marcus Pollard, a music promoter who struck gold in a thrift store after stumbling across a dusty 1960s acetate from an obscure Canadian garage band called The Glass Cage. From here, started an epic journey of brining the band back to life… and resurrecting a slice of music history. Proving that sometimes the best finds are hiding in plain sight between the old crockpots and moth-eaten cardigans.

This week on Double A Chattery, Amanda and Anita dive into Wuthering Heights and our obsession with bad boys — from mismatched shoes and social-media confessions to the dark, intoxicating pull of Heathcliff himself. After seeing the new film, the girls unpack why toxic romance can feel so compelling, where passion crosses into harm, and why the “bad boy” fantasy still hooks us in. It’s moody, honest and thought-provoking — a chat about love, danger and the stories that make us feel everything… even when we probably shouldn’t.

On this episode of Double A Chattery, we reflect on the emotional cost of being informed, the impact of negative feeds, and why humans simply aren’t equipped to absorb this much distress on repeat. Amanda shares a striking insight from the psychology of exhaustion: that confusion has become one of the most effective tools of control, leaving people doubting not just the news — but their own ability to know what’s true.

It’s the first episode of the year and Amanda and Anita are diving headfirst into one of the biggest invisible jobs of all: the mental load.

A Story of A Mother's Love

Anyone who’s heard Amanda talk about her love for Barry Manilow has probably also heard her mention her childhood best friend, Melanie.

Jess is now on the waiting list for a kidney transplant — and Melanie is her donor. In this episode, we’re honoured to have both Jess and Melanie join us in studio to share their story.
