Thoughts on a Run

It’s the end of Spooktober so Missy is both sad AND upset, and Hannah can’t say the word ‘economist’. However, the Auckland Marathon is on the horizon so everybody, jump, jump, jump.This week, Hannah chips away at the cultural icon that is Kiwi onion dip. Then, you can count yourself lucky as Missy brings the spooky and the lore of the unlucky number 13. Think fast and solid thoughts for us as we try our best and dip this in ya earholes

It’s nippy zippy chat this week because Hannah is thriving in a fast-paced environment and Missy trimmed the fern. How many bananas do you reckon the very hungry caterpillar could slam? With a week to go, the Auckland Marathon chat is coming thicc and fast. Missy gets deep and has grand old time delving the depths (over 1.6km), length, and width of the Grand Canyon. You can count on Hannah to puzzle out some sensational sextillion Sudoku prattle. Go on, give it a go (the answer’s nine), be a tidy Kiwi, no matter where you are, and get this in your earholes.

It’s a cheering chat this week, Missy talks about how sweaty she is for far too long and Hannah still can’t say the word ‘simultaneously’ correctly. Hannah hoons up some tip top hopscotch history. Missy checks on the veggies and then delivers some suspenseful, startling, fantastically frightful analysis of the magic, beauty, and art of the jump scare. Just like a classic scary movie, it’s not over until the final scare. The horrors persist and so does this podcast!Hop to it and get this in ya earholes.

It’s a hard knock life for our listeners because the hills are alive with the sound of Mooney’s. This week’s ep is a two hand lift. Missy is high on a hill with a lonely GOAT (Julie Andrews) herd as she yodels her way through some nun-tastic nattering about the cult classic musical film: The Sound of Music. Hannah is a sweet treat and peaks with some tip top, swish Swiss Toblerone choc chat.

P.S. Missy was right, it is a portmanteau.

You’ve lucked out this week and it’s all downhill from here (you decide if this is a good or a bad thing). If you make it past the simple addition and spelling tests, you donut want to miss Hannah’s tasty doughnut yaps, it’s a hole in one. Missy drops a U-turn as she traverses the immensely challenging and disruptive rise and ultimately triumphant fall of the Berlin wall. Pretty sure Missy gets her East and West mixed up so please bear with and shout out to the Berlin Marathon! Give me pastry, give me potatoes, give me cheese and get this in ya ear holes.

The wind was howling and the Mooney’s were a’hoonin at the Cambridge Half Marathon. Despite exceptionally gusty conditions, we did blooming amazing (shout out to the daffodils).

Missy has so much salt on her face but is on the ball with some inkcredible ballpoint pen chat. After many failed guesses, Hannah flip flops, slaps, and slides into some solid slide (the footwear variety) gasbagging. Hoon a foot holiday and let you piggys play peek-a-boo.A podcast, like a biro is a transference mechanism, so, feel pleased, hold the overtake, and get this in ya ear holes.

It’s a sizzling sausage(dog) fest this week. Hannah wouldn’t be a husky, but has all the answers (well, some of the answers) as she traverses some trivial newspaper quiz chat.

Plundering passage via a pirate path, Missy forges her own way with some chat about desire lines. Who doesn’t love a path that makes itself?! Enjoy the sunshine, stop and smell the flowers, give us a poke, and get this in ya ear holes.

Everything hurts but we’re still feeling it. Maths is hard, so was Laps at the Lakes. The Hooney Mooney’s clocked some massive kms over at Pauanui. The bar was raised and Missy ray-ses some X-citing, radiant, dense yet absorbing chat all about x-rays. Hannah gives it a wave and gets a little litty, laughy, and loving of all things alphabetti spaghetti. When is pasta not pasta? When it’s in a soup…allegedly. I’m not going to spell it out - listen to the pod.

Note: Hannah “circles back” twice and for this unwarranted corporate jargon, we sincerely apologise.

It’s all hands on deck in taper town because Hannah gets a fright and Missy gets a cramp (twice). This week doesn’t suck but Hannah does say “wet cupping” far too many times (and it gives us the ick) as she gets into the long, the short, and the circle back of cupping therapy. Stick around while Missy takes the second star to the right and straight on till morning with some flight-full, fantastical, and fairydust fuelled chat all about the boy that won’t grow up. Tick tock beware the crocodile clock, you’ll be swallowed hook line and sinker because this is the Peter Pan episode! Think fast, steady, and happy thoughts for us (but not with the good cups) and get this in ya earholes.

Missy went pretty hundys, Hannah was much more sensible, but we’ll have quiche and everything will be fine. Wiggling, winding, squiggling, and squirming, Missy explores the super common yet infuriating experience of earworms. It’s a journey full of bangers! Hannah wraps, weaves, and slings some saucy, sumptuous, and tasselled talk on the long rapturous history of scarves. Fashion meets function, once, twice, thrice.

Power walk, head down, swing those arms and get this in your ear holes - we’re fizzing to be your favourite earworms ;)
