Good Sheilas

TWO NEW EPISODES ARE UP! Two? YES! We have another cliff hanger because we’re fun mums. The first ep we force you to reflect on whether you’re a good or bad person because you wanted Trump to get a bit unwell, so that’s cute. Then we move on to THE MYSTERIES OF THE FEMALE FORM. Both Claire and Bron have female bodies, and they are both experiencing what that means more then ever before. We both have stories. We both have opinions. We both have vaginas. We’re both not sorry if we make you uncomfortable with this one. Love you sheilas!

Righto sheilas! Episode 26 is here! Or is it 27? WHO CARES, WE RECORDED A NEW EPISODE, STOP YELLING! This week’s ep, ‘Tinder Turd Tom and Our Quest for Romance’ explores national dickhead, Tom McGuirk who used dating apps to harass women when they rejected him. Sure, he was busted, but is his behaviour super unique? Hint: Nah! Also, we chat about the weight women place on romance. Is it a socialised and artificial capitalist tool or is it something we need? Guess who cares not for it? Guess who is trying her hardest NOT to care but STILL cares too much despite her proliferate shitty experiences and personal ideologies? THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING US! Love you guys! Bron and Claire. xx

This week we've got lockdown-mad partners doing online movie reviews and are honest about having had just about a-bloody-nough. We celebrate the life of Ruth Bader Ginsburg and unpack why her death and a gap in the US Supreme Court matters in Australia when it comes to the reproductive rights of women. We also talk about seeing the bits we don't like about ourselves in our kids, pancake vs peach bottoms and birthing the slowest human snail on planet Earth. Strap yourselves in!

We're back! Bron has a backyard trampoline and Claire has mild concussion and is mispronouncing more words than ever. This week we unpack the downsides of social media, from targeted advertising and body shame to the pitfalls of the personalised news feed. Then: parks are back! But at what cost? Turns out we're both massive playground weirdos who have no idea how to behave with other human beings and that there's a lot of playground etiquette to uncover. Strap yourselves in!

This week we're running late because what is time anymore? We unpack shrinking celebrities and why we're mad for slimmed-down versions of Rebel Wilson, Adele and how it invalidates the 'old' versions of their bodies and selves, and reflect on how weight loss and gain has made us feel. We explore loss in Covid and the multitudes of things we've missed out on, with Bron telling her beautiful Moth-winning story of losing a loved on during lockdown. Strap yourselves in!

This week we unpack how very much we haven't achieved when we've had limitless time to do stuff- it's called surge capacity and it means we're all allowed to feel a little bit useless because our lizard brains are waiting for a saber-tooth tiger that will just never pounce. We also talk about what the manic pixie dream girl means in our 30s- who is the perfect woman? Why is she so good at surfing and pottery and effortless beauty while eating a gigantic burger and being one of the boys? Are we trying to be her? Strap yourselves in!

This week, we're being frank about our failings and committing to being better. We unpack how ageist jokes are the opposite of funny, how we were accidentally elitist, and how Mum wine memes aren't something to be celebrated. Amongst the mea culpas, we talk insemination for art, cryptic love poems, and travelling back in time to cringe at Facebook. Strap yourselves in!

Hello Sheilas and welcome to our bi-centenary (we still refuse to learn what that means) episode! We're joined today by national treasure and magnificent funny human Claire Hooper who is a comedian, telly star, radio expert and all things incredible human. Claire helps us to dangle our crystals and get mystical by looking ahead and predicting what on earth life will be like next year. There will be complex stranger behaviours, extreme cinema and princesses of destiny. The stock market is welcome and so are you. Strap yourselves in!

Righto, mongrels! Episode 19 is FINALLY here. Presenting ‘Karen About the Law’! The wait will be well worth it because we give you a very sophisticated comparison of a cult classic film and the Stage 4 shit storm that is currently Victoria. Claire finally says some words that resemble legal terms when she explains why some the people who are anti-maskers without a medical reason are not only morons, but law-breaking morons. Then we disagree heaps about why everyone is ultra sensitive right now, and whether that is a good thing, or super garbage. Hint: Claire loves feelings, and Bron is probably had enough of them at this point. Lastly, of you ever lost a pet mouse, this episode will shed some light on exactly where it went. Thanks for your patience, Sheilas! We love you tit loads!
