We Don't Have Time For This

Happy International Women's Day! It's an important, vital and reverent day, so we thought we'd talk about clothes 🤪 and the real-life Barbies in our lives; Men. We all know Gem doesn't want her husband in her bed, but did you know she does want him in certain clothes? How did she do it? ITS A TELL-ALL. Nothing like some reverse sexism on such an important day in the calendar. Also, nail art - is...

This week's caller wants to outsource some mental load but her hubby "won't let her". - If you want to "phone" the Bestie Hotline, send us a voice note in our instagram DMs with your dilemma! Gem & Revz x See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

So Revzy is fitspo now? Gem is not convinced. Or maybe it's the botox not letting on how she really feels. (Yes, we give a botox update, no, we don't talk about bobo [the dog]). We talk about the return of travel-for-work, followed closely by bin juice and dead flower water. Then, Gem doesn't have time for the idea that sleeping in separate beds is a mark of failure - she thinks it actually might...

Today's caller is wondering if she can tell other people's kids where to go if they're being dickheads in front of her kids or if she should leave it well enough alone. - If you want to "phone" the Bestie Hotline, send us a voice note in our instagram DMs with your dilemma!

Gem; you know, Wallet Mum (phone mum) Gem, who can't cook and hates feeding kids? She has to now do lunchboxes and, LOL, it's a lot. Speaking of Domestic Dramas, Neighbours is coming to an end and Gem has some feelings about it. Then Revz doesn't have time for her 7 year old daughter's (maybe not that big of a deal) request and is wrestling with her thoughts about it. Then, Gem is majorly pissed a...

Today's caller is about to move in with her lover... "Any tips" she asks,,,ANY TIPS? - If you want to "phone" the Bestie Hotline, send us a voice note in our instagram DMs with your dilemma! Gem & Revz x See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Gem is back from a holiday, a.k.a Parenting With A View, and she's refreshed and ready to drop-kick her kids right back where they belong ; daycare. We open that old can of worms, babysitters; just how are you supposed to get good with leaving your kids at home with a stranger, we really need to know. And well, it's Valentine's Day week, the annual shrug heard around the world, but it's prompted R...

So, Revz is flip-flopping on the fur-ball, which is oddly out of character, but that's kinda the vibe of this year, isn't it? Gem is musing on the sex vibe in her house, and tells us all the 25 stage process she needs to go through before she's "in the mood" (enter sex candle). Revzy has found a new joy in her life, which involves humiliating her kids. Gem has reached the stage with Raffa where sh...

This week's caller's Mum is not that into being a Grandparent, and while its a boss feminist choice, it still hurts. If you want to "phone" the Bestie Hotline, send us a voice note in our instagram DMs with your dilemma! Gem & Revz x See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Um, well, BOTH Gem and Revz have started exercising, like, actually doing it and liking it and up is down, you guys. We spend most of our time on a major, major mistake Revz has made, but before that, we get into our "coffee names", Luna New Year, our Chinese Zodiacs (and our yum cha order), how Revz is NOT STUBBORN and Gem's passionate hate of bamboo. We discuss instant attraction, instinct and s...

This weeks caller doesn't know how to School-Holiday...and neither do we. - If you want to "phone" the Bestie Hotline, send us a voice note in our instagram DMs with your dilemma! Gem & Revz x See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Well, we ghosted you. It wasn't cool. We're sorry, but we know you'll get it. But it's a new year, Besties, and we have things we wanna DO (or in Gem's case, NOT do.) And top of the list? Party. You heard us, we wanna party. Not hang, not chill, not family picnic, we want a blow out, hair down, rager of a party, and we're making plans. Also, Isla is vegetarian, Raffa and Iggy won't sleep, COVID ha...

Gem is Spring Cleaning in the most hard core way, but don't you DARE call it nesting, ok?! Her house got "washed" and it broke the internet so now she's on a mission to clean the (her) world. And Revz cleaned a draw. Hurray Revz. Today we wanna know, what do the teachers and carers want for Chrissy and can it be $4.50 only and should it really just be booze? Gem has a better idea. Then we hash out...

Omg this week we went OUT! Like, OUT out! We tanned, we frocked, we made an effort. It's a lot. But Gem has a quick q about inclusivity and what is cool and not-cool about "The Holidays". Revz has maybe had the biggest all time Elf on the Shelf fail.. but she also may have saved Christmas; jury is still out and oh my god December is so long. Finally Revz' favourite kids TV show really let her down...

A-CHOO! Or so starts Gem, chock full of Spring Time allergies. Revzy wants her hair to grow out from Mumsy to something... less...Mumsy... and she has no time to wait. We hash out if hair supplements are really a thing or just a insta-cash cow and how do you say trichologist? No but actually, how do you say it? Then Revz MUST talk about Gwyneth and Sex Love & Goop and somebody STOP her. If you...

This week is all about shaking sh*t up and pushing the boundaries of what we're "supposed" to do. BUT FIRST Taylor Swift Boss'd the world and Gem has to talk about it, extensively, or she may burst. Then we hear about Gem's mate who quote unquote "saved her marriage" by living like she's divorced, but staying married... HEAR US OUT... we have a lots of questions but are all for the shake up.

Hello, and welcome to another Tuesday in the year that could... we are going there today, we wanna talk about mummy make-overs. That's right, surgery. Would you? Could you? Can you even stomach it (pun intended). Then we wonder, do we dress for women or for men these days which leads us to unpacking Gem's serial monogamy and Revz' new found love of living alone. We cringe about the nightmares of f...

It's our 50TH episode! And we can't believe we've been with you for almost a year! But first, there's been developments in the bling department and Gem has news. Which gets us to reminiscing about the period in our lives when everyone was getting engaged and all the silly little hilarious lies we told ourselves about "never saw it coming" and "how did he know the ring I wanted" LOL. Then it's back...

We've heard on the download (also the internet) that the stars say November is going to be a gnarly bastard for us all, in terms of astrology. While we don't like the sound of that at all, it's *that* time of year again; sugar-fuelled capitalism at its finest! Coming off the back of Halloween and barrelling into the ol' Elf On The Shelf season, we're wondering what is fun and magical and what is a...
