Gotta Go
Sisters, Molly and Briony Benjamin, try to sit down for a quick catch-up before one of them has Gotta Go. It’s a show for people who are juggling family, work, relationships, and the never-ending to-do list that lives rent-free in your brain. Maybe you’ve got kids at home, maybe they’re older, maybe you’re in that glorious in-between where you can finally drink a hot coffee… but you’re still the one who knows where everything is, when everything is, and why everyone is late. Alongside the laughs, there’s a quiet (but very real) thread running through everyt...
Briony: Circus Tiger Rescue, Stage Four Plot Twist and Finding The Joy
Briony is the main event on the podcast this week and the joy is apparent.
But because life loves a plot twist, there are also some truly awful bits.
From growing up in a vet practice where her Dad was basically a superhero (including rescuing a literal Bengal tiger at 2am).
To over-annunciating her words wherever possible, because proper diction is important.
She landed her dream job and produced viral videos clocking millions of views for a living (what a flex).
Then Briony got the worst news imaginable and...
Molly: Psycho Goat Survivor, Trendsetter and Crying Over Jam
It’s all about Molly this week and frankly, it’s about time.
This will probably be Molly’s favourite episode.
A couple of teasers for you:
Molly was hopeless with a refedex and outsourced her navigation needs.
She’s been planning outfits and setting trends since she was 18 months old and is still waiting for her Hollywood breakthrough.
She had dreams of being an adorable goat owner, but her reality was a psycho goat who tried to kill her daily.
Her entrepreneurial spirit started young with a travel...
Single Sisters Betrayal, Home Battery Flexing and Press Stud Rage
One of us had a sudden, humbling realisation this week… and it involved babies, friendship, and a very overdue apology.
The other one had a few thoughts about what new parents actually need from you (hint: it’s not another tiny outfit with 400 press stud buttons).
One of us is still grieving a certain era we were meant to have… which was rudely sabotaged by the other.
Briony pointed out that Aussies will renounce their stance on renewables if there are rebates up for grabs.
Molly appreciated the ego boost when AI tho...
Drive Through Everything, Free Money Apps and Pumpkin Pollination
One of us turned 40 this week… and had big feelings about what a privilege it is.
The other one is still in newborn land, where time isn’t real, and sleep is a rumour.
Molly is campaigning for drive-through everything, because getting eggs shouldn’t require a full logistical plan.
We shared a celebrity encounter from the archives that still makes us cringe-laugh, and Briony used an accent Molly will never let her forget.
Briony proved that, even though she’s terrible at accents, she has a lot of useful i...
Anne Geddes Vibes, Taco Structural Integrity, and a Five-Minute Childcare Fix
One of us discovered that a cute outfit can genuinely improve your mood (science says yes, and so do strangers who suddenly start complimenting you in the supermarket).
The other one has started carrying watercolours everywhere and whipping them out at random intervals.
One of us did an outrageously extra newborn photoshoot. Shout out to Anne Geddes (IYKYK)
Scheduling joy is saving us from the monotonous existence that is parenting young children.
We’ve got a list of good news stories to cleanse your doom-scrolling soul. Pandas are involved.
On...
A Hunky Celebrity, A Tiny Reptile and An Accidental Social Media Fire
One of us had a close encounter with a very hunky celebrity this week.
The other one had a close encounter with a tiny reptile.
One of us got the short end of that stick.
A few other things happened, which we absolutely had to discuss:
Briony started a small social media fire accidentally offending true blue Aussie blokes.
Molly yelled at reckless youths on bikes (as is her civic duty).
Briony is quite partial to a good ol’ fashion scam and is eager to give all he...
