EPISODE THE FIRST! Chris and Sarah panic over a mysterious cursed eyebrow kit and argue about the origins of their friendship. Sarah does a theatrical reading of an article from the 30’s about marriage and the division of labour in the home (DIVVY LABES). They talk being out of step with feminist trends, Chris tells a cancellable joke and they realise Doritos are an impractical mid-podcast food. Chris shares an article about a ‘slimming entrepreneur’ and they talk skinny as a social currency, and Chris shares what it’s like seeing herself on TV.
