Depop Drama Diaries & Trans IVF Chats with Ollie Ayres and Kaite Head

Hey babies!

Have we mentioned we LOVE YA?! Welcome to today’s Ratfood - she’s an absolute jam packed one with a bit of everything!

Sammy opens up about her Depop era - doxing, Gen Z validation and all - and we then launch in to a very giggly chat about some of our worst marketplace and depop experiences including a horror story involving a lemonade can and a trip to the hospital, an Elsa dress scam and an accidental therapy session.

We then have our second ever ‘Grassrats’ segment (thank you for all the positive feedback on this segment so far - we’re so glad you guys are loving it!)

We have amazing theatre-maker Ollie Ayres and Kaite Head (SKINT Producing) on mic to talk about their incredible Melbourne Fringe show ‘No Seasons’. The work delves in to the feeling of being on the precipice of a choice - in this case, whether or not to have children. Ollie shares his experience of having his eggs retrieved at the young age of 19 before starting testosterone, and now being ten years older, mulling over what this means to him (and to his partner) now.

We hope you’re having a gorgeous week wherever you are, and we will of course see you for another Ratbag on Monday.

Cheese cubes for all!

Love,

Mel & Sam

xoxo

Mel & Sam would like to acknowledge that Ratbag is being recorded on Stolen Land.

The original custodians of this land have had a rich history of storytelling for over 65,000 years, and we pay our respects to the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation whose land we are recording Ratbag on.

Treaties were never signed. Sovereignty was never ceded. Always was and always will be Aboriginal land.
