  • Drought, Debacles and WTF 50!
    Jun 22 2025

    In this episode, we’re talking drought, dodgy politics and turning 50. Throw in some parenting, peri-menopause, volunteering, a kid moving out, and an overseas escape, and you’ve got one hell of a midlife mixtape.

  • Trump, Santa and vagina necks
    Nov 8 2024

    It’s been a red hot minute but we blew off Phallic Phil to bring you another episode of the 40’s Project.

    Among other things, Abbie put a silver lining around telling her son she was Santa and Melissa contemplated the situation of her vagina neck.

    Love, loss and a giant Trump dump all squeezed into 30 minutes!

  • Dull Women Unite
    Mar 6 2024

    We joined the Dull Women’s Club and feel right at home!
    While Abbie relishes a Saturday night at home Melissa’s highlight is the daily Wordle.
    We did manage a non-dull activity by hitting the Adelaide Oval on a scorching night to see Pink!
    A guilt ridden concert but what a show!
    We touch on our highs and lows, take a trip down memory lane, swear a bit, make each other laugh and sip on Clare Valley wine as we bring you another episode of The 40’s Project.
