The challenges of moving Lola to her sister's room
Britt shares the challenges of moving her daughters into the same room and the resulting difficulties with sleeping arrangements. The transition has not gone as smoothly as hoped, with the girls waking each other up throughout the night. This unexpected development has led to the entire family cosleeping, which has its own set of challenges.
Triumphs and tribulations of being back on the podcast after a break
Laura expresses her excitement and gratitude at being back on the podcast and reconnecting with listeners. She reflects on the highlights and lowlights of the break, expressing her eagerness to continue producing content and engaging with the audience.
The return of migraines and the challenges they pose
Britt discusses the return of her migraines and the impact they have had on her daily life. She plans to seek medical assistance for managing and treating them upon her return to Australia.
It's so nice to be back in your ear holes!! We are coming to you cross hemispherically (but you're not to trust Laura with geography).
First up today, we have a big catch up about what's happened over the break! This catch up included Britt frolicking to the nicest destinations on the planet and Laura being hospitalised with pneumonia. So, you know, same same! We have a big chat about asking your friend when they're going to going to get engaged/proposed to. Do we all need to stop doing this?
We also talk about whether you should, if given the chance, take a swipe at an ex. Chelsea Handler hosted the critic's choice awards the week after her ex boyfriend Jo Koy hosted the Golden globes and the two monologues were like chalk and cheese. The audience's laughter and acknowledgement of joke writers really showed who came out on top. We also discussed whether gendered jokes are okay in one direction and not the other.

It's so nice to be back and we're really excited about what is planned for this year!
