An Easter meme comparing the to-do list of Mums and Dads triggered a huge response from Emsolators and Em has some thoughts on why the mental load on Mothers has reached a tipping point and what to do next. We also need to talk all the behind the scenes action of Em’s appearance at the Melbourne International Comedy Debate, how Annabel Crabb connected Em to the one and only Penny Wong, and who labelled Em and John Safran’s debate responses as sophisticated. We’re addicted to a brand new Netflix series that’s unpleasant to watch, but we just can’t look away, called ‘Beef’. Elio is a gamer with a serious Nintendo Mario Kart Odyssey addiction and he’s not afraid to issue sleepy muttered threats about it, plus Taylor Swift calls an end to her relationship and Michael kinda sorta promotes his upcoming new season of ‘5 Bedrooms’. There’s even a little side quest about a neighbourhood Easter tribute fashioned out of chicken wire, so just your standard podcast episode really. Learn more about your ad choices.
