He's known as Melbournes happiest tram driver.... but we'd argue the world's!
JL, for once in her life, hopped on public transport *cue clapping*.
And lucky for her, she coincidentally met Bruce Whalley!
On this episode, you'll learn a small part about Melbourne's tram history as well as how Bruce became a tram driver.
After working for majority of his life in an office and scaling the corporate ladder, a tragic health scare turned his world around.
If it wasn't for this motorcycle accident.. Bruce may not be here today.
Which is why Bruce lives every day like it's last and laps up every moment of what the world has to offer.
But not only is he enjoying his life with his "Tramily", which he affectionately calls his passengers, he's also teaching us how to get off of our phones and reconnect with each other.
This includes a laugh, smile as well as asking, "How's your pair hangin?" !
Join us in this warm-hearted, down to earth chats with one of Melbourne's, in fact, Australia's icons.
Thanks for having us on the stretch limo, Bruce! 🚃

ARE YOU READY TO DO A DEEP DIVE INTO NOSTALGIA? Mother and daughter duo Griz & JL have a special relationship—and whether it’s chats about JL’s upcoming wedding, or her mum…
Between laughs and “OMG” moments , we sprinkle nostalgia into every episode—which is something everyone can relate to. Whether it’s 80s music trivia or JL’s trip down memory lane of retro lunchbox items (think LCMs, ovaltines and TINY TEDDIES )… every listener will be brought back to what we’ve loved and what we’ve lost (RIP candy necklaces ).
And because it’s not all just feelings and flashbacks… every week we’re on the hunt for Australia’s best FRY. Yup, you read that right! Each FRYday, we are searching for the yummiest-hot-chippy. So expect chaotic opinions, hot takes, and deep dives —as we track down the perfect chip and judge it like it’s serious business.
Our lighthearted podcast keeps you up to date on the latest issues too—like Australia’s potato shortage (insert crying emoji ) and why Prince Harry refers to his eggplant emoji as a TODGER !
Two generations. One podcast. What could go wrong? Everything. Join us—and some very unique guests—as we try to figure out life… and have fun while doing it!
