1 hr 4 min - CONVERSATIONS WITH STRANGERSAll of us have moments of sheer awkwardness, whether it's saying weird things in front of your dermatologist, being unaware of that eye goop you had the whole time you were chatting to the hot neighbour, or simply having a brain glitch at the checkout and forgetting the word for 'zucchini', we've all experience social anxiety in some form or another. Shanelle and Tamara share their stories and laugh wholeheartedly at others as well.

40 min - TECHNOLOGY- FRIEND OR FOE?
Where technology in our lives is super helpful, it's also the bane of our existence. Case in point: how often have you aggressively unplugged Google home because she just didn't understand your request? Have you accidentally texted the person you were actually gossiping about? And can you even remember your password for your Netflix account? We've all done it, all been there.
But can technology really be in our friendship group? Or do we cast it off as the mean girl we're eager to take down? Shanelle and Tamara answer none of these questions, but in their classic style aim to keep you entertained on the subject nonetheless.

52 min - THE ERIN PHILLIPS SPECIAL
The girls chat about the status of women in the Aussie rules football world, the impact it's currently having on the younger generation, as well as some of the obstacles still facing women in football.
Erin and Shanelle take a little trip down memory lane and Tamara decides if she'll have a crack at becoming an AFLW player. Ronda & Raelene also stop by to give their two cents worth on the new Port Adelaide female captain. Good on ya love!!

51 min - OUCH!
Kids love us so much we often find ourselves as their proverbial punching bag; whether it's in an emotional or physical sense, it cuts deep. Mum's share their tales of woe and the gals chat about why sticks and stones really do break their bones.
Essentially, it's a brief history of kids who hurt their parents. Ouch.

52 min - OOH...THAT'S GOODThis episode explores some fabulous options for self-care and taking some time out just for you. Whether it's getting away with girlfriends for the weekend, lapping up the hairdressers head massage at the basin, or getting a much needed compliment that has you flying high for the rest of the day, it's all stuff we need to do and when we do - it’s oooh!

45 min - ANNIE AND YVONNEAnnie and Yvonne wax lyrical about their daughters; times there were near misses, a stroll down memory lane and moments they'd sometimes wished they'd forgotten.

41 min - TOILET BUSINESS
Imagine this, you've floated into your bathroom, shut the door, disrobed from the waist down, and drawn breath for the first time in what seems like hours. All is well- that is until the dog, cat, husband, kids and family guinea pig slam down the door demanding you find their socks, jocks or Barbie doll this instant and it's all over red rover.
Heading to the toilet can fill us with anxiety; whether it's a public toilet where your kids are licking the sink, or you're 'dropping the kids off at the pool' and you're ferociously interrupted. Yep, who said pooping was easy?

45 min - OUR SH!T BITSThe gals get honest about what we really hate about being women. We know we can change the world one hair at a time, if we only stopped shaving them. But do we really want to? More often than not, we're all happy to jump on the bandwagon of feminism when it comes to gender equality due to impacts on our freedom of movement, wages and well being. There is however, little admission of those little things we find exhausting in order to remain younger, more attractive, pimple-less and hair free.

You’re perfectly…
imperfect, overworked and seriously misunderstood.

Oh don’t forget self-care – add it to the bloody list. Shanelle and Tamara navigate the steep learning curve of life’s shit storm, giving you permission to stop, feel heard, and pour your beverage of choice.
Spoken with humour, heart and truth, it’s survival of the fittest and nobody’s winning. If laughter is your tonic and some A-Grade BS is your thing- this podcast is for you.
