It's Five O'Clock Somewhere

This week, we are talking about solo travel. Jo is exceptionally brave, Gill investigates Teletext Holidays, we reminisce about the heady days of life with Tour Manager Ben, Jo touches a Parisian crotch and Gill relives a traumatic day in Barnard Castle...

This week, we attempt to talk productivity and why women are always expected to be busy, and occupied. Except, we decide to talk about literally anything else instead, including the time Gill nearly joined the Scientologists by mistake, thereby thwarting the patriarchy and their outdated notions for us...

This week we dip our distinctly unfashionable toes into the murky world of fashion, to discuss the latest trend of 'Literary Chic.' Jo's trousers provide a wardrobe malfunction, and she invents a new word, which leads to Gill having her best day after rummaging in some long forgotten places! What is Jo's word? What does Gill's rummaging reveal? You'll have to listen and find out!

This week we're talking about Life Admin- what it involves, why it's boring, why we hate it, and why we love the nice man at Halfords who fixes your headlight bulbs. Jo is grown up and serious and talks about wills, Gill lowers the tone as usual.

This week, we veer dangerously close to becoming serious, as we discuss the Femosphere, and whether it can really be classed as feminism, if it is a new thing, and if it is ever acceptable to use a mini sausage from a tin of sausage and beans as a cocktail garnish...?

This week, Jo and Gill are discussing remakes of classics. Jo is in favour, Gill is against. Then the chat veers into a side quest about spiral ham, a potential pork based fashion line a la Lady Gaga, and an idea for a very dark remake of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, despite neither Gill nor Jo being entirely sure what exactly a faun is...

This week Jo gets Gill's hopes up with the question 'Should children be banned?' and promptly dashes said hopes when it turns out Jo didn't mean generally banned, just that some establishments should be adult only. Also, Gill shares hairdressing tips and her rather Victorian attitudes to parenting, and Jo reveals some rather niche bucket list items...

This week we are supposed to be talking about Easter, but our attempt to google strange Easter traditions from around the world takes a slightly dark turn, which would probably go down well in Norway, where apparently Easter is all about crime novels, Gill experiments with an ALCOHOL FREE beverage, and Jo feels the urge to reassure us all that she has never murdered a mink, but apparently believes all furry animals come from Russia. These statements from Jo may have had something to do with the fact she was most assuredly NOT enjoying an alcohol free beverage...

We're back! After a very long hiatus, we have finally got our act together and returned to podcasting, with our signature brand of day drinking, rambling, and puerile and inappropriate humour. Once described as 'listening in to a chat with your two best friends', we hope you have as much fun listening to this as we did making it!

This week, with the clock ticking ever more rapidly, and that festive countdown very much on, we talk about those organised people who, having been ready for Christmas since approximately mid August, like to remind the rest of us about that by asking in faux concerned tones 'And are you all ready for Christmas?', when they know full well the answer is going to be a resounding NO! Jo takes a rather more pragmatic to Christmas and declares one is 'ready' when one is eating cherry liqueur chocolates with your morning coffee, whereas Gill takes on a more panicked approach, not helped by developing a recent obsession with making the 'tension rod garlands' that she saw on Instagram. It's a packed episode though, as Jo learns a lot about hostess trolleys, Gill threatens to cry in the garage with a bottle of Baileys and we discuss why 'Susan' is such an excellent name! Merry Christmas!
