Bad-Mum Parenting Nightmares; An Anthology
We're here, we're fully vaxxed, and we're so sorry we let you down with the missing episode we thought no one would notice. Turns out you're a highly observant bunch of super sleuths and nothing gets past you, so, kudos, DLs, kudos. But we all want to know, how was the Maccas dirty chai? Won't ruin the scintillating answer here, but it got us thinking, you can tell a lot about a person from their Maccas order; with Gem, its a case of ; stop talking. Then we hear about a truly traumatising incident that went down in Gem's house this week and how she very nearly missed the whole thing (sorry, Iggy) which sparks Revz to share her worst ever parenting anecdote of a horrendous near miss that almost left her one kid down. Strap in, saddle up and get ready to feel like a much better mum than us, this week... it's Tuesday with your besties. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

☎️ Bestie Hotline : Stop Crying On Instagram

I Know I Look Fine, But I'm Not
We all know her, maybe we are her, the one who consistently has their sh*t together, the one who can always swing the positive angle, bring the vibes and show up. What happens when she is not coping. Well, "She", is Revz, and Gem was on to it. How do we support someone who is terrible at asking for and receiving help and how do we let go of wanting our girlfriends to read our minds and just ask for emotional support (especially at a time like this when everyone is in the eye of sh*t storm). Also, we think it's time Gem stopped editing the podcast, but can she handle the letting go of control? We also try and work out what exactly we're talking about when we say "boundaries" and why Revz has none. Then we play a fun game of, "what if I said I don't want to do that" and get into our first on air fight. #notsponsored Kate | My Chameleon Gem | Mud Australia For more, join our Gram Fam @wedonthavetimeforthis or our brand new Facebook Group!

Get A Fkn Vasectomy, Mate!
Would it be Tuesday if there wasn’t period cups, mochas and chat about pulling out? (If you asked “of what?” you’ve got the wrong podcast). Today we do NOT have time for taking all the goddamn responsibilities for birth control for our whole damn lives. Like, when does it end? With a vasectomy, that’s when! It makes us rage, RAGE like a full-moon wolf in heat! Aaaaanyway… what is the ideal age gap for your kids? And how cute is it how we all think we can plan it down to the month. Lol, us! And would you change any of it if you could? Highly recommend a strong coffee or a double skim flat wine with this one, it gets real. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Would You Rather : Mum Edition
Today we're embarking on an exposé of true journalism into the dark web conspiracy that is swooping magpies; more specifically how to beat them, so we don't have to hide under a slide at the park. Somehow, this takes us to weird things that are called out during sex, and yeah, that's a natural segue for us - you're the weird one. Gem is behind on booking her post-lockdown appointments, but Revz is smug (and soon to be beautiful), and then we embark on everyone's favourite game, "Would You Rather". You should definitely play along, especially if you like your gastro weekly, and your pregnancy for three years. What are we talking about? It's Tuesday, Besties, buckle up.

What You Can Never Know About Someone Before You Have Kids With Them
Do you play with your kids? Like actually get down on the ground and play? Cos we're really not sure we have it in us, and is that ok? Or do we suck? And if partners had asked us before becoming parents if we would want to play with our kids, surely it would have been a resounding "OF COURSE!" This deep, PhD leads us to wondering what other things you just can't know about someone before you embark on parenthood with them; like where they fall on the helicopter parent scale and if they're #TeamHover or Hands-Off. We wonder if nurses hate all their friends with kids and we unpack whether swearing is really that much of a big fucking deal? And because it turns out we're terrible salty pirates, guess who's kid is watching The Bachelor? But hey, its getting her 2 odd hours of alone time so...is it all that bad? Chores as games, skid marks and the unending domestic divide, we really get into a lot this week, and once again..don't really solve a thing, but we're here, we're sweary and we love our Dear Listeners, even if they are bad parents who make empty threats. #notsponsored Kate | Bum Bags!

When The Perfect Mum Asks for "Advice"
Sometimes you just wanna shake shit up, but do not do it with your coffee order, just ask Gem. And oh shocker, we're back on the topic of Mochas. When will it end? When we all hold hands and accept it as a real coffee, says Gemma. Revz is drowning in life admin and it's killing her vibe. Worst time ever for her accountant to break up with her, but here we are. Gem discusses a potential vow renewal but then, in classic Gem style, kinda talks herself out of it and Revz hatches a plot to end up front page of the Daily Mail. Then, we're talking One-Mumanship, over-achieving Mums with a capital M and how it makes us feel shitty, but probably rightfully so. We delve into shifting perspective in this wily world. Then we dissect how to put yourself out there for parent-friend fun, once this lockdown has ended, without feeling rejected by everyone's busy. Another week in the Bestie Cupboard with your favourite loons. - #notsponsored Revz | Listerine Bright White Lemon & Salt Gem | Popsocket - For more, join our Gram Fam @wedonthavetimeforthis or our brand new Facebook Group!

Every week, we're hashing out your problems, pain-points, dilemmas and juicy gossip in an old-fashioned gas bag.

Just Out Here Projecting Our Sh*t Onto Our Kids
What’s better? A hot coffee milkshake or cheap, wet almond milk? DISCUSS! In other very important dissertation, we hash out what exactly constitutes breakfast food, and are Twisties for breakky really a crime when in Locky D (that’s Aussie for Lockdown for our international DLs). Then speaking of food, it’s back - that shifty, slimy body image monster. It’s poking its head up again in what feels like a lifelong game of whack-a-mole. But we’re staying positive and betting that our 40s are going to be THE years (and maybe we’ll be out of lockdown then too). We also talk co-sleeping, morning glory (the vegetable, you perv..) and the word “whackadoo”. Just out here saving lives! OH!

When An Algorithm Writes Your Friendship Drama
So Billie Eilish dropped an album and naturally Gem has a 12 step process. The results are mixed but she’s not giving up. Classic workaholic (but don’t say that word around her). We try and work out the collective noun for the most popular animal from last week’s game, and we go deeper into our psyches with an OFFICAL enneagram test session. Turns out we’re definitely in a simulation, so there’s that, and frankly, it explains a lot (like our *entire* friendship) and potentially the state of the world. Gem wants Revz to get on the apps, but there’s one BIG problem. Then we get into the correct way to source a meme, the benefits of Ayahuasca and how Gem’s never, ever had déjà vu. you know, NORMAL STUFF.

This Week Has Major LDE
You heard right, we're brimming with LDE, Lock Down Energy. We're pretty sure we're stuck here forever, so can we be shit at parenting and shit at our jobs forever? We think not. Don't even think a Quarter is acceptable tbh, but here we are. Gem is now Russian, deal with it. We perform a major thought experiment in the woods. and we want you to come along with us... like, in your mind, obvz. Finally, who's your sex icon, cos Gem's is practically Ned Flanders at this point and Revz is turned off by a naked cat and then what the hell is this loose AF episode, if you make it to the end you get a..... #notsponsored.

Please Don't Make Me Track My Spending
Another sunny day in Solitary Confinement. But thanks to the Singles-Bubble, Gem and Revzy are reunited IRL. Revz is wondering if she's the only one who isn't playing Grown Ups with her money and Gem is taking on the role of Mum, a.k.a Sensible Sandy, a.k.a Sir. Buzz Killington. But she's unfortunately, probably right on this one. Then, we get quite the rage on over the crazy divisiveness going down online around vaccinations and Revz just straight up loses the plot. Gem is trying to stay open minded, but it's all getting too much and SOMEONE BREAK US OUT OF HERE. Then we do a rapid fire AMA with your questions and, frankly, we just don't have time. There's rage, there's LOLs, there's singing and #notsponny and if you're still here, we fucking love you and please, send help cos we are loose lockdown loons.

Loving Your Kids So Hard It Makes Them Weird
You guys, Gem is going grey. Proper grey. Probs because her daycare just up and shut down. Lucky we’re in perpetual, unending lockdown… 🥴 Today we’re just wondering, are we harder on our girls than our boys? I mean, we definitely are, but is that normal? We discuss how we don’t want to make weird-ass men out of our boys, but omg, we just want to marry them a little bit. But for real, we want to be those cool mother-in-laws and have all our adult kids loving coming to visit us every single Sunday. BUT HOW DO WE DO THIS AND NOT MAKE THEM WEIRD? And is having a girl a guarantee of a built in bestie? Or is that yet another thing we don’t wanna fuck up? Lockdown may have made us over think all of this, but here we are, in our makeshift podcast forts coming to you, just cos it’s Tuesday. #notsponsored Gem | Simone vs Herself Kate | The Pasta Queen Instagram For more, join our Gram Fam @wedonthavetimeforthis or our brand new Facebook Group!

Real Life v Reel Life 🤳🏼
Maybe it's Sydney Lockdown, but this week we get a bit real. Or is it reel. People keep asking Revz if Gem is really as perfect as her instagram grid and frankly, its opened a can of self-conscious, 2021, macro worms. Is it uncool to appear cool on the gram these days? Or is there a feed for every feel? If you love connecting through socials online, do you need to have a "brand" or can you just show up as yourself - and what if showing up as yourself has a real, well, brand about it? What is the role of your real friends compared to your "reel" friends? And my god this is such a weird conversation, but its not like we all haven't thought about it! A deep, dopamine dive into life online, off-line, through a phone and into our heads. Revz hits a nerve with Gem and together, we try and figure out just why any of us really give a shit. ALSO SOME GOOD #NOTSPONSOREDS. Happy Tuesday! Or is it Wednesday? Or Sunday? Or October? Or 2037? We do not know, but we are here. #notsponsored Gem | Orbit Key for a Father's Day pressies Kate | SZA on Spotify *Gem's Spotify 2 cents is also Olivia Rodrigo - For more, join our Gram Fam @wedonthavetimeforthis or our brand new Facebook Group!

The Best Month To Be Born In Is...
Fuck you Lockdown, seriously, fuck you. We at Whinge FM really want you to get in your cab and get outta here, cos now "Home Schooling" has to happen and there's a looming birthday. So really, what is there to do but cry, shop (online) and pour yourself a hefty #skimflatwine and go for your "exercise". We somehow get really macro reminiscing on our 90s music and please, someone stop the singing. On the topic of birthdays, when is the actual best time to be born and does anyone ever really care about your birthday? Really? One we won't be phoning in is our 40ths, which are still aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaages away but we have plans. Then, a bit of a gear-shift and Gem has made a major move in her professional life and its given us a case of the feels. It's an ep full of feelings, you guys. AND FEELINGS ARE FOR FEELING (Revz wrote that, cos, not sure if you know this, but Revz loves therapy). -- The name of the doco Gem couldn't remember the name of: This Is Pop on Netflix #notsponsored Gem | Bop It!

Would You Put Your Breast Milk In A Necklace?
LIVE from Sydney Lockdown, we are remote recording from under blankets to bring you more basic drivel this week. Kicking off with what everyone is talking about (19 minutes, 58 seconds mean anything to you?) #netflixandchill #donkeyschlong. As well as some retail recon the DLs have done re: tooth fairy and we're HORRIFIED. Speaking of terrifying keepsakes, we discuss breastmilk jewellery and hey, why not, if that's your jam? Right Gem? Then, Gem does not have time for her Mum flouting her utterly perfect parenting and enabling her kids' inner brat life. And Revz is so done with hormones (and frankly, should she even be allowed to do this podcast when she's in this state?) We rail at the way people give directions, COVID, vaccines, and reminisce about stalking mixed race baby hashtags; it's yet another pick n' mix from your favourite Tuesday Besties. -- #notsponsored Gem | Happy Hair Brush Kate | Smells Good by Good Times Pilates - For more, join our Gram Fam @wedonthavetimeforthis or our brand new Facebook Group!
