It's a Drama Podcast

Last week it happened. I finally met someone who knows more than Bri, is more patient than Bri, is quicker than Bri...and to make things even weirder, they both have an 'i" in their name...

Sit back,…

Elon's stars, tinternet, and putting yourself out ther for all the world to see...That's what Liz and Bri want to chat with you about today! So grab yourself a cuppa or a glass of wine and settle dow…

You'd think after practicing for almost twenty-two years, me and Bri would have this parenting lark off to a tee by now.

But no. Once again, here we are asking if anyone else finds this tremendously-…

Welcome back!

Regular listeners to this show will already know all about Brian's little problem. His closet obsession.

If you are new to the show (welcome!) and you aren't aware of what we're talking…

We need your help. Or at least one of us does.

As you may remember, Liz's book is currently with the editor. The nice one with the blonde hair. 

Last week the editor sent back the first two chapters.…

Tessa is our daughter. She is 18. In two days' time, she will leave me, Brian and her older brother (and the home where she grew up)  to start a new life in Wellington, the capital city of New Zealan…

Bummer: Noun.  1. An unpleasant situation. 2. A Traveler. 3. A motherless calf. 4. A fouler. 

We make lots of bloopers on this podcast. Say embarrassing things that make the other person's jaw drop. …

We desperately wanted to bring you an upbeat, humorous podcast to kick the year off, but sometimes life just doesn't turn out that way.

So you are getting the alternative. The real stuff.  A conversa…

Every year is the same. October rolls around, and, without fail, the same futile conversation takes place. 

"Let's make a pact!" Me and Bri say cheerfully as we slurp on our pumpkin soup, "This Chris…

For years, Brian and I have disagreed over what Christmas morning should look like. What traditions we should pass down to our young children. Presents wrapped or unwrapped? Gifts given or hidden? Tr…

I'm still trying to figure out if telling someone that they'll never amount to anything makes them stronger and more determined, like a lioness on rollerskates or defeated and beaten. Like a tired ol…

Typical.  All around the world without so much of a sniff, and then you come home and get Covid. And not only that, you're not coping with being home as well as you thought you would...

I'd never rea…

We're back. After six months of complete freedom; swanning around Europe and Asia doing exactly as we please, we are back home to New Zealand. And boy did we land with a bump.

In this week's show, we…

This week's episode is brought to you from Chiang Mai in Thailand. As this will be the last episode that we do while on this six-month trip, we thought that we'd make it an extra special episode for …

Bit of a cheeky one this. Bri gets a bit frisky.

It must be all that dental work he's had done. Or the fear of going to the hospital on Friday...

Imagine travelling with your spouse for six whole months.

Living together, working together, sleeping together. Skipping along the seashore holding hands. Discussing what brilliant ideas you can impl…

f you have ever dreamed of visiting Thailand but have been put off because you've heard stories about how hard it is to travel in Asia (and let's face it we've all heard those stories), then you will…

Five months ago we picked up the little red car from England and drove it around Europe and the UK. And it was bliss. Pure heaven. Brian and I had the time of our lives. Just like Baby and Johnny bla…

I can't quite believe it. For two years Brian has been secretly planning this mega trip to Europe. And now it's almost over.

Europe has been every bit as wonderful as we hoped it would be. Just gorge…

Nothing is perfect. Without fault,  peachy keen, hunky dory.

Not even housesitting. 

As much as Brian and I harp on about how wonderful our housesitting experience has been here in Tuscany, Italy  (w…
