I find out that mum knew ‘Bretty’ growing up!

This episode really has it all! We’re coming to the end of 1981 and we read about how  mum’s going to China, how she manages to eat a whole lobster, how she was at a party and it started pouring with rain and none of the boys had shown up, how on a drinks run Peter Rowsthorn picks up a bunch of hitch hikers (oh the 80s) in big straw hats with weird names like Frog! How these interlopers continue on with them to mum’s friend’s party, how mum became a human coat rack and how mum ended up kissing a frog

Listen to find out if he turned in a prince 

We chat about the rise of the use of the word ‘hot,’ where it might have come from and how language changes and how the guys that are available to you in high school are never the ones you want, oh and we demonstrate our stalking skill and try find someone from mum’s past online (not for the first time, remember the dentist?)

 

As always, listen to experience: cringe, giggles and some real-life shit.
