Sarah has returned from her Australia trip (yes, she went to Fridayz Live đ¶ and yes, she has thoughts), so weâre catching up on everything we missed. We chat about your reactions to our Colours episode, do a full pop culture catch-up (Lily Allen & David Harbour, Stranger Things, The Golden Globesâ new podcast category, and Bridgerton being split in halfârude).Sam shares a very real emotional breakdown at WINZ while Sarah was away, and we tell a slightly chaotic story involving our mateâs bottle shop doing⊠letâs just say special deliveries.Then we get into our spiritual side: superstitions, Ouija boards, and whether we actually believe in any of it. Sam talks about getting the voice box in Lunaâs teddy (with Samuelâs voice) fixedâbeautiful and emotionalâand how much that means to their little whÄnau.We wrap with whatâs coming up next: Halloween, gardening chaos. This episode is us giving each other a bit of shit the way we do. Itâs funny, warm, and a lil heart-squeezy.
