Why Did We Stop Saying ROFLCOPTER?

Hi hi! It's time for another 'Ratbag' episode and boy oh boy do we start off with something that passes the bechdel test! To kick start the ep we are chatting about the daily choices we make to engage in 'micro feminism', we're talking things you can bring to the workplace or for the home "tell a buddy Jackson!". We then massively pivot to unpack why all dads seem to love the most bizarre confectionary.Our hotline opens a conversation surrounding a big question we asked our listeners "what age so far, has been the best age for you and why?". Your results are in, and they are verryyyyy interesting! We then we have a listener 'would you rather?' for our 'Kick Ons' and its theme lives in the world of ~theatre etiquitte~.Finally our 'Hit It Toots!" has us singing as our dads to the fitting theme of Surf Rock.We're so chuffed you're here and you're listening! We will see you on Thursday for another '‘Ratfood!’Love Mel & Sam—You can watch the full video form of this episode on YouTube HERE: https://bit.ly/MelAndSamYouTubeFollow Mel & Sam on Instagram (@themelandsam) to keep up with all things pod, live shows and other nonsense.

Sovereignty was never ceded. Always was and always will be Aboriginal land.—A Grouse House PodcastRecorded at Haven't You Done Well Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
