Britt's Finally in Italy! Laura's Brutal Report Cards & When Is a Woman Allowed to Move On?

Hey Lifers! Britt has officially landed in Italy with a one way ticket! She's back with her husband after nearly four months apart and we are a cross-continental podcast once again. But before she left, something scary happened. On the last day of filming MAFS After The Dinner Party, Britt completely lost track of what year it was. Her neurologist says it's a new type of migraine symptom.  Laura meanwhile survived a truly feral Sunday with the kids, and then found something in a memory box from her mum that explained a lot; her old school report cards. A five year old Laura's year one teacher wrote that her "incessant talking is annoying" and her "incessant fidgeting distresses others." We get into what that means for a kid who probably just needed support, the difference between how schools talked about kids then vs. now, and Laura's secret coping mechanism she's never fully explained before. We also had a one hour Uber ride with a man who hunts Yowies, Australia's answer to Bigfoot, and believes one tried to save him from alien abduction. Then we talk about Aubrey Plaza, who recently announced she's pregnant with her new partner less than a year after her ex-husband died by suicide. The internet has had a lot to say, and we unpack why: Why she was always going to lose no matter what she did The biological reality of being a 41-year-old woman  The Victorian widow — the actual rulebook women were held to for 150 years, and how little has changed Whether men in the same situation would be judged the same way Why grief and happiness are not mutually exclusive See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
