Cuppa with Corlette

This episode begins with a funeral favour and somehow ends with a parasol.Along the way:a stranger leaves a note,a talent agent approaches Corlette and the opportunity may or may not be legitimate, and Corlette experiences the most adrenaline she’s felt in years.There’s also another story from Corlette’s childhood.

Cost of living? Corlette has thoughts. And solutions. Questionable? Maybe. Effective? Debatable. Memorable? Absolutely.This episode wanders through the strange logic of modern life—where saving money becomes a full-time personality, everyday choices feel oddly complicated, and nothing is quite as straightforward as it should be.There’s a listener question that gets… reinterpreted. A discovery that raises more questions than answers. And a throwback that proves some things about us are set very early on.Somewhere between practical advice and complete nonsense, something unexpectedly sharp sneaks through.Put the kettle on. You’ll need it.

Corlette’s had a week… and things may have escalated in several directions at once.There’s a situation that required a very quick explanation to a complete stranger.A small ordering error that became… not small.And a piece of technology that’s showing something it absolutely shouldn’t be showing.Plus, a listener question that turns into a fully structured response system, a taste test that takes an unexpected turn, and a haul that proves you don’t need to spend much to get your fix. Take a moment, make a cuppa, and stay with this one. It builds.

Corlette thought she was just catching up with an old schoolmate… but this week takes a turn she absolutely did not see coming.A “once-in-a-lifetime experience” that raises more questions than answers, and a simple kitchen moment that spirals into something… regrettable. Add in a new Hot or Not segment that might never recover from its first attempt.Plus, a mysterious answering machine message… and a listener dilemma that proves some mistakes simply cannot be undone —this episode is quietly unhinged in all the best ways.Put the kettle on. You’ll want to hear this one through.

This week Corlette opens the letterbox and finds something peculiar. The evidence has been bagged and the investigation is ongoing.There's a cash grab booth in the Tweed City Shopping Centre carpark and Corlette has a go. Does she come out a winner?Several boxes have been arriving at the front door that nobody ordered. Des thinks they should just open them. Marlene has organised a fundraiser for her sick cat. A man from Bundaberg writes in about a road rage incident and a car that has been playing up ever since. Corlette's plays spin that wheel and offers another free ASMR session. Pull up a chair.

In this week's episode, Corlette attempts to do her bit for the environment and ends up on the freeway at a hundred kilometres an hour next to a man with three teeth.There's a late night incident in the garden involving a high pressure hose, a compressor, and Des in his pyjamas that the neighbours on the side would like to not happen again.A mystery woman. An unrecognised man. A display stand at Supercheap Auto. Fifty minutes. And a bottle of brake fluid that is now in the garage.A listener from Queensland has developed trust issues. Corlette has advice. The advice involves standing up in a room full of people and saying something out loud.Corlette reads her last fifteen YouTube searches and we learn more about her than any of the other segments have managed to reveal.Pull up a chair.

One wrong turn. One unexpected “job.” And one very questionable piece of life advice.In this week’s episode of Cuppa with Corlette, a simple stroll turns into a front-row seat to something wildly unfamiliar, a quick trip to the shops spirals into a situation no one could predict, and a quiet night out somehow ends in unexpected recognition.Plus, Corlette answers a listener’s dilemma with advice you won’t hear anywhere else, puts her timing skills to the test (with mixed results), and once again hands over life’s big decisions to the only judge that matters - Gavin.Pop the kettle on. You’ll want to hear this one.

Corlette’s had a week.Nothing major. Just a few small things that have slightly… escalated.There’s a situation involving colour that won’t quite come off.A theory about ants that may or may not hold up under pressure.And a decision that probably should have been double-checked before committing to it publicly.Plus, a childhood story that sounds unlikely, a piece of advice you won’t find in any gardening book, and a method of decision-making that raises more questions than it answers.Make yourself a cuppa. You’ll need it.

The kettle's on, the chops are out of the fridge, and Corlette is back for episode two — and she has had a week.Someone has left something on the back deck. There was a note attached. There's a man with a folding table outside the leisure centre who has badly misjudged his audience. Denise has opinions about protein. Des may have chipped a tooth. There is a bird in Tweed Heads that has made a calculated decision, and Corlette was not adequately prepared. An espadrille was involved. The council has been put on notice.Settle in. The kettle's just boiled.
