Hello my angels!

It's a bit of a different one today so buckle up! After many questions to our Hotline surrounding this topic specifically we have decided to dedicate an entire episode to Long Distance Relationships.

We both have oodles of experience in this relationship structure so thought it was worth spending an entire episode talking about it! We talk everything from tips and tricks, to candid chats about the hardest parts from our experience, and how to honour your love languages when theres an ocean between you!

Whether you are about to embark on a long distance relationship, are in one, or are considering it, and whether that be romantic, or platonic - we hope you find something useful from this episode.

Thanks for listening, and as always see you on Thursday for 'Ratfood'

Love you!

Mel & Sam

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.
