#194: Sally Rooney, Metaverse, Frayed

We’re coming off a weekend of moving house and not moving much, and there’s plenty to chat about. Zan finally finished the latest Sally Rooney book, and has some thoughts. Meanwhile chatter about the “Great Resignation” happening in the States makes us wonder if it’ll happen here, and we once again embrace our new found roles as careers counsellors. Reality is getting a reboot, as is Facebook, with the launch of the “Metaverse”… What is going on with those videos? And we’re banging out about season 2 of Frayed, and Lisa Millar’s brilliant memoir Daring To Fly.   Oh, and help us Tom Gleeson it up, by voting for us in the Listeners Choice of the Australian Podcast Awards: https://australianpodcastawards.com/vote   Show notes: Sally Rooney review: https://www.instagram.com/p/CVsNbjSBoIp/ Why Americans are quitting in record numbers: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/nov/03/an-unbelievable-sense-of-freedom-why-americans-are-quitting-in-record-numbers How to make the “great resignation” work for you: https://www.abc.net.au/triplej/programs/hack/making-the-great-resignation-work-for-you/13615106 Facebook launch their Metaverse: https://twitter.com/therecount/status/1453772988361453572 Frayed: https://iview.abc.net.au/show/frayed Daring to Fly: https://www.hachette.com.au/lisa-millar/daring-to-fly-the-tv-star-on-facing-fear-and-finding-joy-on-a-deadline Email us: [email protected]   Bang On is recorded on the lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation.
