Cath's New Dating Coach Doesn't Have A Pulse
6/15/202634 min
Sally called in from Melbourne to formally lodge a complaint against Cath's new dating coach. Mary invented a ball bra and pitched it to a Bonds designer. Grace turned up to Parliament House in polka dot socks and briefly out-styled the entire Australian Government. Dr. Ginni invented a brilliant new business idea; shame it's already been done. Also: what was the first R-rated film you snuck into? And what kind of psychological damage did it leave behind? Cath also has a TV recco for your winter nights; Rivals is a Gen X viewing paradise.
In your ears today: Mary Coustas, Cath Mahoney, Grace Lamb and Dr. Ginni Mansberg.
