That's... interesting (Vol.3, 1982)

I find out that Mum used to want to learn the drums...??

This time, we read about Mum going up to her Aunt’s place in Woodend, where she goes riding, the lambs are dropping and there’s a bonfire of dead sheep. Mum mucks around on the CB radio and writes an emotional letter to a friend. 

We chat about how our expectations of entertainment have changed over time, fandom now vs 40 years ago, the difference between how Mum and I journal- I do it to emotionally unpack life and Mum often seems to avoid the emotional things- and how through this podcast process, there are four layers of self-reflection for Mum. Oh, and how we need to stop saying ‘interesting’ so much when recording! 

As always, press play for part therapy, part entertainment, oversharing guaranteed...
