33 min - Our Favourite Topic Yet: Ourselves
Amanda and I would like to begin this episode by acknowledging the Traditional Owners of the land on which we are on today. We would also like to pay our respects to Elders past and present.
Hello all you lovely people. This week we have a more personal episode... because it's not like we talk about ourselves every. goddamn. week or anything... right? We react to your assumptions about us (some very wrong and some attackingly right), and answer some personal questions. We delve into sexuality, the 'type' of people we date, our experiences in high school and what our life on the Gold Coast is really like (hint: not that glamorous).

Kara and Amanda acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land on which we are on today. We would also like to pay our respects to Elders past and present.
Hey guys, isn’t heartbreak just… the worst?? This episode we talk about breakups, having your heart broken and getting ‘over’ someone, whether it’s a friend or a romantic partner. We discuss what heartbreak has looked like for us, why you shouldn’t let anyone tell you when you need to be ‘over’ someone, and what we think about getting back together with an ex.

55 min - An Honest Chat About Veganism
Kara and Amanda acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land on which we are on today. We would also like to pay our respects to Elders past and present.
TRIGGER WARNING: We talk about eating disorders between 41:00 - 45:21. If this is a subject that makes you feel uncomfortable or triggered, please skip through this segment.
Let’s talk about veganism. As two people who have been vegan for quite a while, we have a lot to say on this topic - the good, the bad, the ugly. We chat about our own vegan journeys, how our opinions on veganism have changed over time, our thoughts on the online vegan community and why we think everyone should focus on intention, not perfection.

Hi everyone. Today’s episode is a very important one. We want to use this platform to provide some information on why we believe that Australia Day should not be celebrated on January 26, if at all. This week, we encourage you to spend the time you would normally spend listening to our podcast educating yourself on this topic, listening to the voices of Indigenous Peoples and having this important conversation with others in your life.
