Show Notes
Ho ho ho baby! It’s the Christmas episode and the girls are officially in the festive spirit (even if Australia refuses to feel festive in 40-degree blistering heat). The girls agree that Christmas down under just isn’t the same but it is something everyone needs to experience at least once.
Fresh off the flight home from FIFO Land, they share their plane food horror stories - one of them ending up with chocolate boobs (guess who 👀) while the other was left surviving on rations. Bev barely had time to blink before hopping off the plane and heading straight to her comedy gig, still in her work uniform, with urine in her knickers, becoming the first girl to ever go from red dust to the stage at Experimental Comedy Club.
As if that wasn’t enough, Bev also landed an interview with a journalist from The New York Times - a huge week all round. Iconic behaviour.
This Christmas marks a first for the girls, as they’re spending it apart since moving to Australia — Lorna heading back to Sydney, while Bev stays in Perth and heads off on a camping trip with her fella. The girls get real about Christmas, reminding listeners that it’s okay if you don’t love it - it can be a tough time, and at the end of the day, it is just another day. The girls want to wish you all a happy Christmas and hope Santa comes to all you sexy boys and girls! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
More from The Ones That Got Away
The girls kick off this week’s episode by being incredibly disciplined and keeping their word, not only to themselves but to the Squirrels.
This episode kicks right in with some impressions from the absolutely brilliant movie, The Emperor’s New Groove, where Lorna is left almost speechless with how well Beverly impersonates one of the characters. If only Beverly could do other accents - is their any voice coaches listening who could help? Or any castings going for cartoons based in Cork?
Oh my godddd… the girls are BACK! After a 6-week break (it was 6 weeks, don't fact check us), Beverly and Lorna are finally reunited in the Perth and they are absolutely buzzing to catch up on all their adventures.
Oh my godddddd… it’s the Season 2 finale 🎉
This week’s episode kicks off with a wild story as Lorna shares how she and Beverly were the only ones to step in and help a guy caught up in a brawl over the weekend… seriously chaotic scenes.
