Mind The Gap

Happy Friday… or maybe unhappy Friday?

Who knew buying a house could be so stressful?!

Griz asks: are we doing bedding wrong? The Scandinavians have it right: same bed, separate doonas. JL, meanwhile, wants to sleep separately altogether.

Then, the question everyone (okay, maybe just JL) is asking: do tall people have extra bones?

The great coffee debate: which machine is best? Griz argues JL is no barista and won’t cope with a manual machine.

The girls also struggle with the phonetic alphabet.

Next, they discuss the collapse of David Jones and reminisce about their department store days. That leads to their qualms with online shopping, and one particular incident that left JL rosy-cheeked.

Finally, it’s our FRYday review: Griz has a problem with the word “paired”... but no problem naming different types of produce.

Gday, U.S.A! 🇺🇸

Apparently Mind The Gap is big in the U.S. so naturally, the girls try their best American accents.

Do you use manners with AI? Griz says absolutely. JL might be considered impolite.

Speaking of impolite, Griz has another road rage episode. Are her reasons valid?!

A miscommunication with a waiter leaves the girls wondering if they’re empaths.

Then Griz gets asked to perform mouth to mouth, and JL shares her “life saving” CPR hack. If you want to stay alive... STAY TUNED.

Finally, JL & Griz try to decode a text message.

Sorry for the delay, Griz has been riding camels (more on that to come).

This week, JL is turning 31, so naturally she and Griz reminisce about her birth. Let’s just say it was a rather large event #BigHead.

Speaking of milestones, JL is house hunting and grieving the move out of home, while Griz is thrilled about her impending empty nest.

Then: HONK IF YOU’RE... you fill in the blank. Griz and JL keep getting picked up on the M1, so if you’re honking, they’re enjoying. They devise a plan to market MTG on the road: Le Tour de Mind The Gap.

The dictionary just added 1,400 new words, so JL tests whether Griz is up to date on 2026 lingo. JL also reminds Griz of the time she considered “looksmaxxing” (yes, leg-lengthening surgery).

Is JL a nepo baby? She begs to differ. That leads to Kylie Jenner wearing the Fantasy Bra at this year’s Victoria’s Secret show, and the big question: are nepo babies deserving of fame and fortune?

Then it’s Uno reverse: can JL define these 1970s words?

Join Griz, an ex pole dancer, and JL, a non-nepo baby, for a ride along the M1 or wherever you’re listening!

Toot toot, beep beep! 🚗 Thanks for joining us, follow along on Insta & TikTok!

We’re talkin' BOOBS.

We just got our first compliment - it was directed at our double-A small chests!

Everyone’s big boobin and we’re small chestin! After being in the TikTok limelight, the girls chat about insecurities and women supporting other women. They decide it's kinda cool to be kind.

JL reminisces on saving up for big-ol-boobies, but then her frontal lobe developed, which begged her to ask: when would enough be enough?

It’s also another special day: National Transfer Money to Your Daughter Day! Griz wants to transfer JL to another family.

Then the worst hangover to ever exist happens to JL. P.S. never order a caramel milkshake when you’re hungover. Or maybe you already know that. Poolside-chic more like hungover not-so-chic.

JL spends $70 on Maccas to cure herself, including a questionable caramel sundae. After the traumatic experience of the milkshake, she thought it would be nice to revisit caramel. NOT!

Finally, JL wants an Etsy witch. Griz tells her to just shove a name in the freezer.

Please share, like and review this episode! And for more fun, follow us on TikTok & Insta! A massive thank you for all your support, especially from the small chest club. We’re told we don’t need any bra support, but we’ll take yours <3

WELL ELLOO GAPPIES!

Have you missed us? Sorry we've been MIA... weddings take a lot of planning, if you didn't already know *cries in florist deposit*.

Anywho, we're back! First up, Griz is in the firing line for her pillow obsession. JL is worried that it's not normal to own this many decorative pillows.

Then they're straight back into it: NUDES. Yep, you'll have to listen to find out.

JL brings up a recent pub visit where Griz ordered a senior citizens' meal, which begs the question... is it illegal to order a kids' or seniors' meal?

Finally, the moment you've been waiting for! Griz & JL try Grilld's new Hot Chip Twisty collab. Mind you, the chips are 3 days old, so this was a microwave job. Please keep that in mind when we rate it.

The girls have a fight at pilates, and maybe the Tippy Bird is to blame.

Then it's a trip down memory lane to see what the world looked like 30 years ago: hitchhiking and smoking in restaurants. Griz would know, since she's apparently 80 years old. #SeniorCitizen

It's GF Friday!!! 🏉

Well, at least it was when we recorded this episode, the Friday before Freo took on Brissy in the 2026 AFL Grand Final. We all know how that ended 💔

BUT FIRST: It's FRYday, the most important day of the week! We're on the hunt for Australia's best fry, and this week we're pulling out the big guns. Guzman y Gomez (aka GUZZY), you're up! You know how this works: design, texture, salt ratio. We won't give anything away, but let's just say "flaccid" pretty much sums it up.

THEN: The girls chat about the Freo and Brissy teams, and JL reveals the only team she's going for is #TeamJules. They also try to work out what Wharfie Time actually means.

FINALLY, the moment you've all been waiting for... move over Wharfie Time, it's Kylie Time! Kylie Minogue: the diva, the queen, the icon.

To celebrate, the girls prank a devoted, loyal Freo supporter: Cam, Griz's business partner. They give him a call and slip Kylie lyrics into what he thinks is just general chit-chat. Will he notice? Listen to find out!

Well, G'day, G'day!

It's FRYday… and you know what that means… we're rating a.... chip.

Unfortunately it's not a hot chippy, as JL forgot to do her homework *sigh*.

This week, it's a potato chip - still sitting in the realm of potatoes, JL argues.

BTW, how do you pronounce, kipfler?? And, are you crinkle cut or thin potato-chip?

The girls take a trip down memory lane with this flavour, as Griz used to pack this in JL's lunchbox <3.

THEN: Griz makes JL wake up at 4:30 a.m... maybe punishment for not doing her homework.

JL decides 7/11 coffees aren't that bad, but what is bad is AI dating.

Carrie Bradshaw didn't use Claude... so should we be?

Griz is a morning person and JL is the opposite: but a 5:30 a.m. hot mat pilates class puts them both to the test.

PLUS: How does one become a seasoning expert?

Grand finale: the secret recipe of the famous light n tangy chips!

JLs back from a hens weekend, where her alter ego became Jane. And Jane loooooves a lychee martini. Or 20.

The girls do a deep dive into this week’s hot topics. Sydney Sweeney’s Ad - the girls debate… was it that bad? And *that* Hyrox incident. No debate here… it was that bad. 

JL needs an anatomy lesson - she doesn’t know the difference between a bladder and a bowel. Griz is mortified, and it’s the first time on the history of MTG she’s ever been shocked.

Then, Raygun’s latest documentary on Netflix begs the question: When do we need to admit defeat? 

Finally, Griz lives out her air hostess dream.

🏈 Griz gets starstruck, JL can't stop laughing, and the fries get judged.

Griz recently rubbed shoulders with some genuine A-League stars from Melbourne Victory. Or as she prefers, the Victorian Victory. (She had to ChatGPT what league they were even in. This is why we love AI.)

She also put on a life jacket… and whistle to attract attention… from players. Not to save lives.

All the while, being asked to be a motivational speaker! #TedLasso eat your heart out. 

Speaking of sport, the NFL has touched down in Melbourne! So naturally, the girls sit down to discuss all things American football. And when we say "discuss," we mean two blondes with absolutely no idea what they're talking about.

Griz is put to the test in a game of Name That NFL Term, but her recent motivational-speaker high has clearly gone to her head.

So JL invents her own: Blue Lagoon Fever, "meow meow", and apparently "Walla Walla Bang Bang" is the 49ers' national anthem now.

Finally — it's FRYday. This week under the microscope: the humble Maccas shoestring fry. Score's a mystery till the end. No peeking.

It’s Friday… or should we say FRYday .

That’s right: every Friday we’re reviewing FRIES.

Whether they’re from your local fish ‘n’ chip shop, the corner kebab store, or the beloved Maccas shoestring fry… we’re doing boots-on-the-ground journalism. Or as JL calls it: ground-on-the-boots journalism to find Australia’s perfect, hot chip .

So whether you’re a waffle fry lover or crinkle-cut connoisseur, we’ve got you covered.

The girls break down our Hot-Chippy judging criteria :

1. Design – thick cut, waffle fry, etc.
2. Flavour – all-round flavour.
3. Salt – chicken salt, vinegar salt, plain salt…
4. Texture – the guts of the chips: gritty, smooth, crunchy.

Our first stop: Prahran Kebabs.

Order: crispy, golden fries.

You’ll have to listen to the end to get the full, hot review.

THEN: Bigger news. Dyson has unveiled a toothbrush and it comes with a whopping $799 price tag.

The girls ask the big question: Have we gone too far?

JL blames her upcoming root canal on the toffee apples Griz bought her throughout her childhood…

So we have to ask—are root canals chic? And why is EVERYTHING CHIC these days!!!

PLUS: Pheromone maxing —chic or not-so-chic?

FINALLY: The review you’ve all been waiting for. So, how did Prahran Kebabs score on our Hot-Chippy Scale ?
