What No One Tells You About Birth (but ACTUALLY)
ROCK UPDATE! Where is that goddamn engagement ring, cos, we're still feeling queasy. Now, what is the going rate for a manky old tooth these days, and how does it all work with the Tooth Fairy? Cos it seems there's a few different stories out there, and we need there to be one. So today, we get into a much requested topic which is - What do you wish you had known about birth before you did the damn thing? We have some hacks, some (eeew) tips and (gross) advice - STAY WITH US - we get into the much-discussed episiotomy, the Day 3 Blues, Vag birth vs Sunroof, the gas, YA FIRST POO, it's g l a m o u r o u s. This turns into Maternity Ward Klepto Antics and, yes, it's a thing! Then we touch on the idea of orgasming while you're crowning... now... we don't like to judge but GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE, FELICITY. As you were, Bitches. It's Tuesday in Lockdown, and this one's the loosest of them all! #notsponsored Gem | Sequence board game Kate | Brokenwood Semillon For more, join our Gram Fam @wedonthavetimeforthis or our Facebook Group!

Where Can I Get Me An Echo Chamber?
Oh hey Tuesday! Can we talk about hair maintenance (or lack there of), and why Revz ever thought it was a good idea to add *go blonde* to her busy life? And then, take a breath, we get into the old g r a t i t u d e chestnut... and we've changed our tune since Ep 12, or have we? We're a bundle of contradictions on this one. This week, Gem is running on fumes, cos she has #nightcreepers and she's (shocker) over-worked. To add to this, she's having wild cheese-induced nightmares and that leads us to whether it's ever ok to recount your dreams to, well, anyone. We accidentally drop a job ad for our expanding Poddy team and then speaking of sleep, we do what we said we'd never do, and tackle the topic of sleep-training, specifically the smugness that lives on either side of the debate. Raffa is a klepto now, Revz hates Teddy's nickname and Gem can't pronounce "hypocrite" BUT the big takeaway is that everyone sucks, you should seek out your confirmation bias and, bloody, YOU DO YOU MOTHERF*CKRS! #notsponsored Kate | Insta Follow @velvetcoke Gem | Sensory board from @leosworld_au For more, join our Gram Fam @wedonthavetimeforthis or our Facebook Group!

Gentle Parenting Can GET IN THE F*KN CAR!
Gemma is, because of course she is, spring cleaning! How fun is a good old fashioned de-clutter (stay with us).... and how annoying is it when a partner moves sh*t, puts sh*t in the "wrong" place etc... Then, there's a diamond situation and it's making us all sick. But that's what happens when you move house and go into labour on the same day. Then, Revz goes full pirate, and will someone reign her filthy mouth in? Then, we do not have time for sick days. Fuck you, snotty sick days, don't you know there is NO time? And then look, this is controversial, but can we talk about gentle parenting… we are not sure we have any time for it, but then, we are once again, a bundle of contradictions so who the f*ck knows.

You Don't Make Friends With Game Night
Coming to you "LIVE" from Tasmania, thanks to Stillwater Seven and Clover Hill Wines. This week, we really cover the full gamut on Whinge FM. Starting with the Emergency Department, like, who has the time guys? Not us! And if human children aren't enough, can we talk about "Fur Babies"? Revz has a gripe, and she's ready to lay it on the line ("don't @ me", she begs, like a big dumb, dumb). Then, look, can we talk about when kids wanna dress themselves? Why do they have zero style when we've tried so hard to raise them chic? WHY?! Revz bought horrendous shoes for her gross kids that assault the senses, and Gem claims that Raffa has fun clothes but we need to see the receipts. A bougie sea plane interrupts us before we get into the detailed intricacies of what makes Reality TV (yes, it's very important), and Revz exposes Gem for the Game Nazi that she is. All in all, another basic bitch-cast, but from a beautiful part of the world.

Sorry, Who's Having Another Baby?
Unpopular opinion... but can we all hold hands and say that sometimes it's just easier to solo parent? THERE! WE SAID IT. But, careful what you wish for. This week, we are looking into the future, with a special guest, Psychic Medium Anna Paola Boyd, but before we do (and oh, how we do), we reminisce about the past, and remember high school formals? Gem is still smug about her cheap-ass formal outfit and Revz cannot believe she thought she was fat, when in reality she looked like a greyhound. Enter Anna, who has some bombs to drop on us about our future and all the best made plans we thought we had all sewn up. Apparently there are babies on their way, major moves, career slam-dunks and a SOUL CONTRACT. Strap in, basic besties, this one goes roguer than rogue. #notsponsored Kate | Elka Collective pyjamas Gem | Spotify Playlists by matthew_rooney-au For more, join our Gram Fam @wedonthavetimeforthis or our brand new Facebook Group!

The Topic We're Utterly Sick Of Discussing
First up, scandal, is Gem up the duff? Cos Revz has done some detective work and if it looks like a jar of pickles and smells like a jar of pickles... MAYBE ITS A JAR OF PICKLES. Gem recounts her first kiss, which makes us mourn the loss of kissing, RIP The Pash. Then we talk about The Sex Talk and how Revz has given it multiple times. Then, look, we're ragey. And we're sick of being ragey on this topic, but we just are. We discuss a current news story and our visceral reaction to how it's played out, which gets us back into sexual politics and workplace behaviour and DON'T WORRY, THEN WE TALK ABOUT THE BEST FOUNDATION. #notsponsored Kate | Maybelline Fit Me Foundation Gem | MCo Beauty UltraStay Flawless Foundation For more, join our Gram Fam @wedonthavetimeforthis or our brand new Facebook Group!

If Your Bestie Can't Call You On Your Shit, Who Can?
Ok, periods. Why? Just why? I mean, we know why but, please, have we not evolved beyond the blinding rage? Then we talk about intervention during birth and the further blinding rage we feel when people glorify “natural” birth #whateverthatmeans. Speaking of loving the drugs, we went OUT for Mother’s Day (jokes, there were no drugs) and we keep getting shamed for it. So, is Mother’s Day really for mothers then? And what’s the greatest gift you could give a mum? Which leads us to friendships and the difference between old ass mates and new Mum-Friends. How do you take a friend crush to a friendmance? Finally, Gem is - shocker - exhausted and Revz calls her on her bullsh*t and “next-week” attitude. But in a career win, Gem reveals her new project! So it’s ALL happening! #notsponsored Gem | Maya Brenner personalised jewellery Kate | AYU Ayuverdic Body Oil Jasmin and Neroli For more, join our Gram Fam @wedonthavetimeforthis or our brand new Facebook Group!

When Your Bestie is Navigating Infertility
First up, the people need to know Gem's nickname, and Revz is on the case in this worldwide exclusive and it reminds us just how silly and insecure we all are about the dumbest things that literally no one else cares about. Speaking of names; to keep your name or change it when you get married? What about the kids? And here we go again at the p a t r i a r c h y. Also, throwing Gem further under the bus, we're talking bad, old tattoos... and guess who's inked up? Lucky she gives no f*cks! Then, we finally get down to it, and the topic on the table is infertility. We have both experienced it, been there for each other through it, and are on the other side. So how do you support someone you love who is navigating life under the cloud of infertility? And how do you tell your childless friend that you are pregnant? We've been there, so you don't have to.

When Emojis Reveal Your Bad Parenting
What's your most used emoji? Is it lol, a warm hug, Spanish dancer vibes or straight up murdery? Maybe it gives away your drinking problem (*cough* REVZ). We steal each other's phones and psychoanalyse where we're at based on tiny cartoons. Then, we get into a bit of self identity, pregnancy and how going from 0-1 kid and 1-2 kids changes who you are. Oh also, Gem has a biter on her hands and Revzy has a lemon. Thanks for hanging with your fave hot-mess besties for another Tuesday Loose-Fest. #notsponsored Kate | Dissh Mari Mom Jeans Gem | Night Light Podcast For more, join our Gram Fam @wedonthavetimeforthis or our brand new Facebook Group!

I Don't Wanna See A Ghost, It's The Sight That I Fear Most...
Holidays: a novel location in which to parent! Revz recaps travelling with her Groms and we get into how travelling (even locally) has changed since having kiddos. Then, cos we're deep AF, we get into why women still don't really propose to men and how cool we think it is when women take charge of their own 👏🏻 damn 👏🏻 lives. Also, did you know you're a completely different person every 7 years? Like, science, wise? And we wonder if it's possible or hella dangerous to teach your kids to question, well, everything. Gem had one coffee one time and now knows The Meaning of Life...and lucky she does because THIS IS NOT A DRILL, there are ghosts amongst us. And we only have one thing to say about that.... NUP. So, tune in, Dear Listeners, for a strong start and loose "skate" to the finish line. #notsponsored Kate | DermaVeen Sensitive Relief Eczema Cream Gem | Instagram account @modelsdoingballet - For more, join our Gram Fam @wedonthavetimeforthis or our brand new Facebook Group!

Is Crying In Front Of Your Kids Ever Ok?
Hoorah the school holidays are FINALLY over but the whinging kids and sibling fighting, does that EVER end? When you’ve had enough, is it ok to completely lose it in front of your kids? And what about with Hubs? We wonder if there’s a good and bad way to fight with your significant other. Now, it’s far less important, but Revz doesn’t know what to wear and it’s all she can think about. Gem on the other hand in comfy AF (pun intended) being a mumsy dag and ain’t nobody gonna stop her.

Never Worked So Hard to Disappoint So Many People
Ok, full disclosure, we are a little loose this week, coming off the back of technical poddy issues and #dummygate, we are two sleep-deprived zombies. But we're here! And we're talking about Gem 'copping some crit' on the gram via the Mum Police and exactly how dummy weaning went down in her household. Revz has been knocked for six by a meme, and look, it's made her spiral. As if a brutal meme wasn't enough, we also heard a bang on quote and it's just so real, you guys. Gem had a shocking run-in with a Mansplainer which begs the question... Should anyone ever put up with a toxic work culture? Spoiler alert; no, but it's never that easy, is it? Finally, can we just stop waiting for life to get easier? Is it time to lean in to the manic hustle and just own it? #notsponsored Kate ABC Reading Eggs Gem Annabel Karmel Kids Meals - For more, join our Gram Fam @wedonthavetimeforthis or our brand new Facebook Group!

Mum Guilt In Flour And Icing
We kick this week off addressing a call-out we got via DMs about beauty, but don’t worry it quickly descends into scrotox and deflect, deflect... LOOK OVER THERE, it's kids party time for us both and we sit on very different sides of the cake aisle. Gem puts on the Outsourcing Queen crown, Revz goes full art director. We don’t have time for extra-curricular craft being assigned outside of school hours. Then we take a trip down memory lane to a whack time we went to... wait for it... RUSSIA.

Ask Us Anything (Unless It's About Drunk Shopping)
We're flipping the script this week, cos we wanted to open it up to you, Dear Listeners, in an Ask Me Anything, poddy style! But first, the Easter Bunny is coming for Raffa's dummy and Gem is shitting herself for what's to come. Revz has a little baby klepto on her hands which is probably not a sign of intelligence, although, watch us spin it that way. We talk drunk online shopping and even circle around the cauldron of kids s l e e p. We get into all your quezzies including what success means to us, and more importantly, where do we get our hair done. All in all, another hour with your favourite basic bitches.

When You Run Into Your Ex Looking *Fire Emoji*
Have you ever run into your ex? Let me rephrase, have you ever run into your ex looking *Fire Emoji*. Well sometimes, just sometimes, life serves up a just dessert, and this happened to "Us" this week and "We" were both there for it and we may have merged into the one person at this point. Gem also experienced another parenting first / rite of passage and arrived at a pretty awkies realisation about herself that she needs to unpack. Revz is pissed that ALL the family gifting falls on her, even for her in laws, so we get into that and somehow end up at another layer of guilt involving sustainability. Wow, we did it again, we went everywhere. #notsponsored Kate Bon Tot's Stainless Steel Water bottles Gem Billie Eilish The World's A Little Blurry - For more, join our Gram Fam @wedonthavetimeforthis or our brand new Facebook Group!

Drama, Drama, Drama! We had our first on-air fight over, wait for it, Harry & Meghan. Its the Brit v The Republican and spoiler alert, nobody wins. In the theme of confrontation, Gem tells us about an aggressive blow-up at her local playground and then in some kind of weird non sequitur we get into the hot topic of sharing your life on the internet - we reminisce about life pre-social media and then get hella scared for the children. THE CHILDREN! Finally, Revz forced Gem into a 'salacious' tell-all about what really happens behind the scenes of influencing and what-was-this-episode-about? Life...oh, life! ohhhh li-ife, OH LIFE.

Please Son, Don't Be A D!*k
With rampant-ass misogyny coming at us from every angle this week in the news here in Australia, we're in a mood. But its not all bad, REVZ WENT OUT FOR DINNER WITH CHILDREN and nothing burned down, and Gem's sweet baby angel learned to call her Grandparents "stinky" 😳. The topic on the table this week, though, is the boys, and what is the best route for them in this world to hopefully make sure they turn out to be good, respectful, decent men. Or at least give them the best possible chance at turning out this way. Here's to strong, sensitive, feminist men.

Let's Talk About Sex, (After) Baby
We're all thinking it, how much sex is everyone having? Well, not everyone everyone, more like, everyone with young kids who have been together for a while and are, well, tired AF. How much sex? Cos we feel like people are lying and that it's the new insta-status to be boinking for Australia. So, is it a sign of the quality of your relationship and just when is the perfect time, amongst all the other things we don't have time for? We just wanna get into it, and by it, we mean the topic, not the actual sex thing.

The Difference Between Boys & Girls
We kick off today's show with some pass-ag gifting and then, oh what a surprise, Gem has another s#^t story to share about some #funkyjunk. Which gets us thinking, what are the differences between boys and girls and once again, does it really matter? Gem gets a boner for Malcom Gladwell and Revz is so over all the mums forecasting her motherhood experience. Will she make it to 7pm on yet another groundhog day? We check ourselves over how many times we've uttered the phrase "oh you think it's hard now..." and we end with a feud over interior design. We also ignore all your DMs about why dogs are amazing, so you should probably troll us over on the Facebook Group. - #notsponsored Kate Kmart's Rattan Collection Gem Fawn & Finch - For more, join our Gram Fam @wedonthavetimeforthis or our brand new Facebook Group!

She may not fit into the "school pick up mum" list, but The Good Mum LOVES a bargain and she is full of all the tips. Together, we heap shit on Gem, reminisce and literally do laundry.
