Together, we're redefining what it means, looks and feels like, to be doing "woman's work" in the world today. With confidence and the occasional rant. From boardrooms to studios, kitchens to coding dens, we explore the multifaceted experiences of today's woman, confirming that the new definition of "woman's work" is whatever feels authentic, true, and right for you. We're shedding expectations, setting aside the "shoulds", giving our finger to the "supposed tos". We're torching the old playbook and writing our own rules. Who runs the world? You decide.

Send us a Comment, Question or Request, we'd love to hear from you We're recording on Good Friday but releasing after Easter, so join us for a time-warped exploration of all things Easter-related! After catching up about Davey's recent Florida adventure (complete with Disney rash and Mickey Mouse sightings), we dive into Easter traditions both familiar and obscure. Did you ever wonder why we eat chocolate eggs or where the Easter bunny originated? From hot cross buns (which Davey loves but Hannah detests) to the symbolic significance of lamb roasts, we unpack the religious and cultural meanings behind these Easter staples. We also discover some lesser-known traditions like Simnel Cake with its eleven marzipan balls representing the apostles, Easter lilies symbolizing resurrection, and rural Easter bonfires meant to ward off evil spirits. The highlight of our episode is a lively fact-or-fiction game where Hannah puts her Easter knowledge to the test. Learn surprising facts about Queen Elizabeth I banning hot cross buns, the world's largest Easter egg standing 34 feet tall, and why Easter Island got its name. With plenty of laughs and a few lighthearted debates about "Zombie Jesus," we celebrate this spring holiday while respecting its deeper significance. Whether you're a chocolate egg enthusiast, a religious observer, or just curious about holiday traditions, this episode offers something for everyone. And remember—just because you're an adult doesn't mean you don't deserve an Easter egg!

Science vs. Myth: Busting Common Misconceptions 37:35

Send us a Comment, Question or Request, we'd love to hear from you Ever believed that bats are blind, that the world is flat, or that you shouldn't swim after eating? These widely-accepted "facts" are actually complete myths – and they're just the beginning of what Hannah and Davy tackle in this eye-opening father-daughter conversation. With a perfect blend of scientific curiosity and playful banter, the duo examines ten persistent misconceptions that have somehow survived despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. You'll discover why flat Earth theories simply don't hold up against basic physics, why your hair doesn't actually grow thicker when you shave it, and why that childhood warning about swimming after ice cream was completely unnecessary. Their discussion about lightning strikes repeatedly hitting the same places leads to a hilarious tangent about car accidents and proper safety procedures, while the revelation about bats having excellent vision (some can even see in color!) sparks jokes about these creatures "pranking" humans for centuries. The hosts' genuine surprise at discovering some of these scientific truths makes for an authentic listening experience that's both educational and entertaining. What makes this episode particularly valuable is how it demonstrates the importance of questioning inherited wisdom. Many of these myths persist simply because they're passed down through generations without scrutiny. By the end, you'll find yourself wondering what other "common knowledge" might actually be completely false. Whether you're a science enthusiast or just someone who enjoys lively conversations that challenge conventional thinking, this mythbusting journey will leave you with fascinating facts to share at your next social gathering.

Send us a Comment, Question or Request, we'd love to hear from you Food isn't just sustenance—it's the catalyst for some of our most passionate debates. In this spirited father-daughter showdown, we take on British cuisine's most divisive questions with humor, nostalgia, and occasional horror. The humble hangover cure kicks off our culinary clash, where we challenge the dominance of the Full English breakfast and share surprisingly effective alternatives (hint: hydration is key). We tackle chocolate loyalties as Cadbury's faces off against Galaxy, with passionate defenses and specific exceptions that reveal our complex relationship with Britain's sweet obsession. Regional divides emerge when discussing the controversial practice of gravy on chips—a north-south battleground that exposes deep cultural differences in just a few miles of British territory. Our Sunday roast analysis weighs the perfection of home cooking against the convenience of pub dining, uncovering the mystery of why some people spend an entire day preparing what others accomplish in two hours. Traditional ingredients don't escape scrutiny either. Black pudding creates a fascinating psychological struggle—delicious in taste but mentally challenging when you remember what it contains. Meanwhile, mushy peas face outright rejection as we question why anyone would deliberately transform perfectly good vegetables into questionable mush. The debate culminates in our definitive ranking of Coca-Cola vessels, from the elite status of glass bottles to the disappointing reality of meal deal plastic. This isn't just talk about food—it's a revealing look at how culinary preferences shape our identities, relationships, and even regional allegiances. Love our food fights? Follow us on social media to continue the debate, and let us know where you stand on these critical culinary questions. Are you Team Gravy or Team Curry Sauce? Your food identity awaits!

Davey and Hannah launch into a passionate debate about UK cuisine classics that reveals just how personal our food preferences truly are. This episode takes us on a mouthwatering journey through British culinary traditions as father and daughter declare their allegiances in hotly contested food battles. From their surprising united front against baked beans on breakfast plates to their spirited disagreement over digestives versus Hobnobs, each topic sparks not just opinions but memories and cultural connections. The conversation serves up delicious insights into generational food perspectives – Davy's defense of proper Yorkshire puddings (which he makes "big and massive") contrasts with Hannah's strategy of saving them for last. Their shared adoration of gravy becomes a recurring theme, whether discussing Sunday roasts or steak and ale pies. Even their takeaway preferences – Hannah championing Indian while Davy opts for Chinese – reveal how British food culture has evolved while maintaining its traditional elements. Beyond mere taste preferences, their debates touch on deeper cultural questions: Does milk truly go in tea first or last? Is chicken tikka masala rightfully Britain's national dish? Should cream or jam be applied first to scones? The answers prove both entertaining and surprisingly revealing about British identity. Join us for this flavor-filled episode that will have you questioning your own food allegiances and perhaps reconsidering whether you've been eating Yorkshire puddings all wrong.

We pick apart the threads of nature versus nurture while skeptically examining the possibility of past lives. Could it be parental influence or a cosmic mystery? Our dialogue dives into the comfort people find in these extraordinary beliefs, pondering whether reincarnation is as plausible as it is fascinating—or simply a load of "Pollux." Media can make or break a story, but does it always tell the truth? We turn a critical eye on the role of sensationalism in high-profile cases like Madeleine McCann's, questioning how headlines can skew reality. Our conversation jumps from modern mysteries to historical enigmas like the Black Dahlia murder, all the way to peculiar urban legends such as the Mothman sightings. Is it a bird, a beast, or just a bump in the night? We even have a lighthearted chuckle over why names like Keith and Nigel have become as rare as a Mothman sighting itself. Treasures hidden and sounds unheard await as we venture into the lore of the Oak Island Money Pit and the mysterious "Bloop" of the Pacific.
