Killjoys, Sugar Daddies and Savoury Dutch Babies!
Surprise! Turns out this is the season finale of Season 4 after all. We're off to have ourselves a break over the summer - part holiday (for SoRo), part maternity leave (for SoMo). We didn't want to leave you in the lurch though so this ep is chock-a-block with the good stuff. Think sexy netflix shows, a Sydney swimming bible, comfort reads, a banging dance tune and some "last ep of the season" silliness we didn't edit out. What sport does SoRo have a vendetta against? What weird way does SoMo describe being pregnant? Just how many times does SoRo's skin get complimented? You'll have to tune in to find out guys! Vamanos!

Punk Florists, Smashed Cheeseburgers and a $9 Beach Accessory
We've kept it snappy this week, but man do we cover a lot of ground. We've got supermarket flowers, a mouth-sweating spice blend, steamy sex scenes and a dark horse in the baked good aisle. We're self-medicating through TikTok, we're turning into our mothers and not one single chickpea was cooked in the making of this episode!

Mulberry Season, Bucket Hats and Another Perfect Doughnut
This week we are thrusting our face into the flowering bushes of Sydney in spring and letting sprigs of jasmine perfume our houses. It’s our favourite time of year, but there are deadlines to meet and sometimes the seasonal shift can make SoRo a little blue. To steady our equilibrium we have some decadent chickpeas, an app to track our cycles, a memoir to make us brave and yet ANOTHER perfect doughnut. SoRo also tries to make “gardening chic” a thing though neither of us are 100% convinced.

Life-Changing Doughnuts, Spanish Aperitifs and Whiffs of Baby Stuff
This isn't and will never be a baby-focused podcast, but lots of you asked for recs, so we have a couple to share. But we're also staying hydrated drinking interesting Spanish stuff and well-concealed thanks to a refillable beauty product. Sundays are made for meatballs, so you should try these ones, and oh - we point you in the direction of probably the best doughnut of your entire life. No hyperbole.
