We Don't Have Time For This

A Cumming of Age Story

<p>So, Teddy has discovered Gwen Stefani and that sh*t is bananas. Gem had a quote / meme / reel fall in her lap and it’s now her entire parenting philosophy. Revz loves it and is reminded of the time she negotiated her way out of maths for keeps. Cool story. Then Revz does not have time for a massive loss of innocence in the canteen line and Gem doesn’t have time for using up all her grandparent credit when she’s maxed out on childcare. TBH between the podcast and the live show, we’re both well and truly in the red. But onwards we march for another Tuesday with our besties. </p><p><br></p><p>#NotSpon:</p><p>Gem: The Deepest Breath documentary on Netflix </p><p>Kate: Gro-To Sud Bud and Skin Wizard</p><p><a href="https://gotoskincare.com/pages/gro-to">https://gotoskincare.com/pages/gro-to</a></p><p><br></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

Don’t Ask Me If Your Marriage is Dead

<p>First up, Raffa has changed her tune on something and Gem is pretty devo about it. Then we wanna know how often people are washing their towels. Like, honestly, how often. Cos we feel very different about it but we do love that hotel life. Then Revz doesn’t have time for people asking for a relationship diagnosis like she’s an expert (spoiler, she’s not) but we also kinda get it. And then Gem has a really big one today and it’s weighing heavily on her heart. We wade through together and unpick the many layered reality of the idea of a particular beauty truth. Happy Tuesday DLs we LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH. </p><p><br></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

It's Just A Phase

<p>Gooood Morning DLs! Its Tuesday morning and we are starting out with a BIG announcement today, so buckle up! We have been busy, busy bees getting ready for the Tour (TM) but first we have an update on last week, a near car accident (!) and some serious hair cut chat. Yep, thats right, Gem bit the bullet and cut her kids kidnap hair and she had a weird, unpredictable reaction. Then Revz has the mirror firmly up in the form of her son’s “phases” which we argue over the real definition of and we have some bougie and TV watching #notspons to bring it all home.</p><p><br></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

<p>This week's dilemon involves mansplaining... nuf said.</p><p><br></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

Please Stop Staring

<p>First up, Gem gives the update no one asked for and tries to rebrand something no one asked to rebrand. It’s fine, we love her for it. Revz regales us with a truly superb spew story and so we’re off to a queasy start, aren’t we? Then Revz doesn’t have time for the weirdness of being the unmarried woman at the BBQ, which sparks a convo about gender divides at Aussie get-togethers. Finally Gem had a park interaction that sparked some research and parental soul searching. It’s been a big week DLs, thanks for coming along for the ride.</p><p>Gem's reference:</p><p><a href="https://childrensplaygarden.org/10-strategies-for-talking-to-kids-about-disability/">https://childrensplaygarden.org/10-strategies-for-talking-to-kids-about-disability/</a></p><p><br></p><p>Not Spons:</p><p>Gem: My Sibling Above https://wholeheartedly.com.au/collections/childrens-books</p><p>Revz: The Iconic Returns Policy</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

Burn, Baby, Burn.

<p>Ok so, don’t tell anyone, but making pizzas is an art. Like, don’t try this at home kids..for real. Gem has a new appreciation for the upper crust so stay tuned for her latest that-will-never-happen moment; ambitions of becoming a pizza chef. Then it looks like the time for haircuts might have come (praise be) and Revz is maybe a little too excited. But not so excited she gets distracted from calling out Gem, like she promised she would, on her work schedule. This takes us into quite an unexpected but important discussion about burn out. As a weird chaser, Revz is frustrated with knickers and we talk porridge and YouTube. Happy Tuesday DLs, we adore you.</p><p>Revz mention: Yoga Nidra For Sleep and Rest</p><p><a href="https://insig.ht/Dm9Zcc6HjBb">https://insig.ht/Dm9Zcc6HjBb</a></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

Bad Things Come In Threes, Right?

<p>We kick off today with a little beauty PSA about chrome nails for those playing at home and then, holy shit, we BOTH got Taylor Swift tickets and we don&rsquo;t quite understand how ( #survivorguilt ). Gem had a truly seismic horrendous day and she&rsquo;s got the receipts to show for it. You won&rsquo;t believe how UN-cozzy-lives approved this story is. And Revz has been smacked down by a horrendous flu and it&rsquo;s been a confronting time which does not at all match her hot girl winter&trade;️ or birthday szn. Some semi-bleak not spons, but some rollicking lols for you all aswell.

Don't Post That, Mum

<p>We got a pass agg gift from Revz’ mum; Gem wants to know what the design is and Revz is dirty about storage. Gem had a weird incident at the beach involving a tourist which sent protective Dads on fire. Gem’s watching Parental Guidance and it’s making her think about having her kids online yet again which makes Revz pause at this new juncture of older kids. Then Revz has a bone to pick with the internet which might be a little cinematography-snob of her but she can’t stomach something going around and around. Gem is very reasonable about it which only makes Revz more annoyed. The mantra here is : “Let it go Revz, let it go.” Gem’s got a smart ass kid who’s weaponising her own wisdom against her and are we all exhausted? Spoiler alert; yes.

When Did We Get Old, Though?

<p>Well, Gem&rsquo;s theatre nightmares have started, and she&rsquo;s sweating over getting up on a stage again. But it&rsquo;s remarkable she&rsquo;s dreaming at all since sleep has been non existent in her house. ENTER A BLUE MIMI UPDATE. Revz is completely confused by her Zoomer sibling's entire language system, like what is &ldquo;yeet&rdquo;, for real? Then Gem went and did the drama thing, are we still here for this? And Revz wants to know when we&rsquo;re supposed to get &ldquo;dressed&rdquo; these days and when Elevated Slob&trade;️ is just enough. We&rsquo;ve also got some $8 cossie livs approved #notspons for you and a bunch of lols FOR FREE.

The Chronicles of Blue Mimi

<p>Welcome to our new podcast “Under The Sea” where we discuss the Little Mermaid for 147housr… JOKES! But give us 5minutes because we have more shit to say. Gem took Raffa to the cinema against her best judgement and was proved right by the mountain goat herself. But don’t worry she’s off to kindy to potentially teach them drama? #whatcouldgowrong. Isla did a thing and it made Revz aware of her internal competitive parent, does she have a lid on it as she thinks or is she full of shit? In the biggest news on the internet this week, Iggy lost blue Mimi, aka the right side of his face, but is Gem actually upset: an investigation. Then Revz doesn’t have time for her new found relationship and making up lost time with her Dad. All in all another fun filled week with your unhinged besties, love you long time DLs</p><p>Not Spons:</p><p>Gem: Lo and Co</p><p>Revz: Brillo Body Butter</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

Is It Long Covid Or Am I Just A Tired Mum

<p>Well straight up, Gem gets the best text message of her life (including GIFs) but it’s quickly followed up with a schooling on a weird (potentially outdated) term. Aaaanyway, Raffa is pumped about chores, Revz is absolutely nerd-fizzing on The Little Mermaid and Gem is keen to join the Disney train (but without kids). And then Revzy doesn’t have time for when Impossible Beauty Standards™️ tip into vanity judgement. She tried a new treatment and it’s reminded her that augmentation can mean more than looking good. And we look at that reoccurring question of if “normalising Botox” is irresponsible or not. Then Gem is feeling aggressively unfit like a pack-a-day smoker and it’s…confronting. Then we talk about if maternity leave is not just about time with the baby, maybe it’s time with ourselves? </p><p>Not Spon:</p><p>Gem: @pantry_girl</p><p>Revz: Coles 40% Choc Chip Cookies</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

B*tch, You Know I'm Getting That Ice Cream

<p>Yo, when was the last time you bought tissues? The 12th of Nevuary? Cos same, but betcha Mum does? We demi-announce the worst kept secret we&rsquo;ve ever had (LIVE SHOWS!!) before dissecting the inclusion of cucumbers in the lunchbox and the joy factor of roll ups. Gem found out the hard way that her kindy educators are DLs. And now she&rsquo;s Mrs Pranita, drama teacher. #facepalm. Then Revz is feeling like she&rsquo;s had too much coffee but it&rsquo;s not actually coffee it&rsquo;s&hellip; the kids? Then we air out our most shameful parenting moments and they&rsquo;re kinda identical, oops. Finally Gem had an absolute nightmare swim class and that&rsquo;s enough whinge FM for, potentially, 6 months?

Is There Anything More Terrifying Than a Digital Detox?

<p>Gem’s had a Pinterest makeover and she’s now essentially living in a display home. Hubs is banned from the for-show-only-bay-leaves, so, you can imagine how this chat goes. Revz is living a vintage vibe right now, and it’s making her laugh at the fact that she’s almost 40 and entering her second chapter. Gem went off the grid this week and after she went “foraging” (lol) she found something SHOCKING on her return. And this puts us in a tailspin about what kids are actually observing about our online lives. Then we talk about the absolute honour bestowed on the friend you don’t clean up for and the bestie who only knows you without a shred of make up. Are they the best friends we will ever have? Spoiler alert: YES! Another Tuesday with your girls, thanks for being here DLs!</p><p><br></p><p>Not Spon:</p><p>Gem: Go-To Nifty Fifty</p><p>Revz: Weleda Skinfood</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

The Big Dog

<p>What if our kids are someone completely different at day care than they are at home? Like, personality transplant.. that’s what’s happened in Gem’s home. Revz has done a complete 180 on the whole #sportmom thing (no surprise) and also her kids are waking at like, 2am (jk, jk… kinda) and is it time for a later bed time? And now listen we were TIRED recording this one cos we were making stuff for you but it gets LOOSE.

Should Women Apologise For Getting Paid?

<p>Gem is back and in (better) health. Revz now has a 6 year old and she’s musing on birth once again. Gem is on a real rampage about her period. She’s actually straight up done with it and we can relate. Revz is bringing the real-talk smack down on her bestie in terms of rolling back her workaholic status. Then we both don’t have time for explaining what we “do”, most because Revz is putting her best foot forward at the moment and maybe she’s embarrassed. Wait, is Revz now cringing at being an “influencer” when she’s given Gem so much shit for it in the past? Revz doesn’t have time for the shade that comes with women asking to be paid. The heat has been growing online as the podcast has grown and its giving her pause. Are we harder on women for monetising their content, more so than men? </p><p><br></p><p>Not Spon:</p><p>Gem- Kmart Gumboots</p><p>Revz- Thank You Exfoliating Hand Wash</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
