I Know, I Need To Stop Talking... so I made a podcast

Kids EN ↓ 81 episodes

I've been rambling on for years on my blog, and now I thought I'd start rambling on via a podcast as well. I'm eclectic; very sweary; frequently livid; perpetually confused. Topics I'm likely to cover will include gin, parenting, gin, why Original Source mint and tea tree shower gel is a fucking liability, gin, general musings on life, and a bit more gin. I believe kindness is everything, and that we should all try generally to be a little bit less of a dick.

Send a text In which I share some of the moments during lockdown which most drove me to gin.

I made a podcast 22.08.2020 11:23

Send a text In which I take my first foray into the murky world of podcasting. Despite not actually knowing what a podcast is. Amongst other things, I'm discussing the arseplectrum which is 2020; batshit crazy cats; why I cannot wait for the schools to reopen; and why Original Source mint and tea tree shower gel has frankly got it in for my family.
