Show Notes
This week, we come up with LITERALLY the best idea ever, in the form of a club night for menopausal women, including places to sit down, good snacks, and a dress code including slippers, elasticated waists and NO BRAS. Unfortunately, our topic for this week was not 'coming up with an idea for an awesome club night', instead the theme was supposed to be 'Black Friday', to coincide with the upcoming sales madness. We talk about some of our favourite small businesses, and whether you can ever have enough books, or whether we should be trying to find joy in nature, rather than 'things'. And Jo's impending fear of death is not helped by Gill offering to tell her about the time Gill nearly bought a coffin...
More from It's Five O'Clock Somewhere
This week, we are talking about solo travel. Jo is exceptionally brave, Gill investigates Teletext Holidays, we reminisce about the heady days of life with Tour Manager Ben, Jo touches a Parisian crotch and Gill relives a traumatic day in Barnard Castle...
This week, we attempt to talk productivity and why women are always expected to be busy, and occupied. Except, we decide to talk about literally anything else instead, including the time Gill nearly joined the Scientologists by mistake, thereby thwarting the patriarchy and their outdated notions for us...
This week we dip our distinctly unfashionable toes into the murky world of fashion, to discuss the latest trend of 'Literary Chic.' Jo's trousers provide a wardrobe malfunction, and she invents a new word, which leads to Gill having her best day after rummaging in some long forgotten places! What is Jo's word? What does Gill's rummaging reveal? You'll have to listen and find out!
This week we're talking about Life Admin- what it involves, why it's boring, why we hate it, and why we love the nice man at Halfords who fixes your headlight bulbs. Jo is grown up and serious and talks about wills, Gill lowers the tone as usual.
This week, we veer dangerously close to becoming serious, as we discuss the Femosphere, and whether it can really be classed as feminism, if it is a new thing, and if it is ever acceptable to use a mini sausage from a tin of sausage and beans as a cocktail garnish...?
