There's Always Something

What happens when you book your first-ever cruise hoping for luxury, but end up trapped in a tiny cabin sharing one bathroom with a partner who also has gastro? You get this week’s episode of There’s Always Something.Gen is back from her floating RSL holiday with tales of an overly blunt Filipino masseuse who skipped the small talk and asked straight up if she was in menopause, to being recognised by a fellow passenger.Meanwhile, the universe has apparently decided it’s Tell Yay How Bad She Looks Week. From judgy tradies to a terrifying ex, the feedback from the streets is brutal. But there is a silver lining: a midlife crisis pivot into an adult Glee Club that has somehow escalated into backup singing Like a Prayer for Fifi Box at the Melbourne Convention Centre...Grab your Prison Slides, put on your stained old tracksuit, and dive into the chaos!Don't forget to like, subscribe, and share with your friends (and your pharmacist)!#Podcast #CruiseHorrorStories #GleeClub #ComedyPodcast #Parenting

This week, we’re discussing the fine line between a glow-up and a violent assault. From the excruciating pain of being stabbed in the jawbone by beauty needles to the social humiliation of inhaling icing sugar in a room full of activewear-clad hotties, it’s been a week of physical and emotional trauma.We also tackle the vital questions: Why is it called "dinking"? Is withholding information technically lying?
