This week Em is shook because Michael is keen to talk about the Coronation of the King, Em has zero interest. Weirdly though (actually not really weird at all really) even though she didn’t actually watch it, she’s absorbed a shocking amount of assorted facts and highlights. Once we’ve worked through that Em is mad keen to drag a very reluctant Michael into the marvellous world of mushrooms. Em’s got all the facts, a new app to help her identify them and an unbridled passion to force Michael into gumboots for a frolic through a forest full of fungi in the very near future. We’ll follow that with the breaking news that Tom Cruise and Shakira are an item, which naturally inspired Em to pump out a bit of fanfiction 5 minutes before the episode record. Expect Michael in the role of Vin Diesel and Tom Cruise and Em as Shakira (is that a female Fernando Alonso I’m hearing?). Finally Michael has a new season of ‘5 Bedrooms’ to plug, plus there’s two other equally fab Aussie shows they’re both keen to recommend. So plug us in, press play and get a sample of the wall to wall dizzy freedom that’s bouncing around inside this episode.

Description

Let Em Rusciano speak to you in her soothing tones (NB: Not at all soothing) as she and her best friend Michael Lucas catch up and break down the week in news and pop culture. Always poised to go deep, or to swim shallow, these two can swing from Harry’s Styles’ hair, to US politics. From Disney Princesses to global pandemics. So shut out the noise of the world and settle in for pop obsessions, for personal confessions, for several wild tangents and at least one fit of wheezing laughter.

Laughter Is A Gift

I couldn’t find the words to describe this pod but I think this poem does.

Laughter is a gift

It doesn't mean your fit

But it will soften any tension

It could be consider stress prevention.

Find a reason to laugh

Just look at funny giraffes

Watch a funny show

A transformation you will go.

Read a silly book

And laugh so others will look

Or watch some children play

They always find a yea!

The most wasted of all days

Is one where laughter is delayed.

When life gets you down

Please don't frown.

So take this wonderful gift

And don't ever be miffed

Laughter makes living

For us to be giving

The bees knees

This podcast has everything you ever wanted. It has serious discussions, it has lighthearted discussions it has fan fiction sprinkled in sometimes. A little (a lot) bit of peen talk every now and then. Political talks that you actually want to hear. It’s my Friday drive home podcast that gets me ready for a good weekend. It’s like listening to your two best mates having a chat. Just joined the subscription and can’t wait for the extra episodes.
