S1E1: '2 women, 2 mics, 40 years of diaries' (Vol.1, 1980)

  • Summary

  • We went back and listened to our season, especially the first few episodes and thought: we've learned so much, we CAN do better. Also we've learned how to put the beeps in for blanked out names! We have new theme music -- more Spandau Ballet, less Amelie. So re-join us for episode 1 -- re-recorded so that this time, and from now on, mum reads.

    Granddad tells mum someone's dead when they aren't...

    We're diving headfirst into 11 July 1980 as mum reads out the first few entries of her teenage diary, written when she was 16.

    We discuss this project that we’re taking on together, mum is nervous of course, reading your teenage diaries out for anyone to hear is one of the most revealing, vulnerable and excruciating things out there don’t you think?

    So press play to hear us chat on about mum’s brief bible fanaticism, her economics class talk meltdown, and how the milk-bar man’s son was there when Gough Whitlam was sacked.

    Listen to experience: cringe, giggles and some real-life shit.
