The Girls Uninterrupted

This is our final episode of 2025, and the last from The Girls Uninterrupted. We’ve loved having you with us over the past seven years. It has been the most meaningful, special journey (GOD DAMMIT, WE COULDN'T FIND A BETTER WORD), and we thank you so, so much for coming with us through it all. In this final episode, we have a few spicy margs - cheers, Liquorland! - and reflect on the year and the time we’ve shared with you. Haere rā, aroha nui ki a koutou, Brodie, Gracie and Caitlin. *This episode was recorded before the Bondi terror attack. We are deeply saddened by the vile, antisemitic attack. Too many innocent people are being caught in the crossfire of hate and extremism. We must stand together with empathy and community - because we cannot let hate win.

This week, we think it’s time to throw the word “anti” in the bin when it comes to ageing. You know what else can go in the bin? Christmas desserts! You can tell Caitlin whatever you like for fish of the day (so long as it’s line-caught - and not a cute fish). Does our summer mahi attitude suck? Plus spitting out pips, Love Actually, and Baa Baa Black Sheep.

Well, as we predicted, F*** it, it’s Christmas has kicked off and did not disappoint. Keeping with the festive spirit, we call Santa for a catch-up. We ponder the urgency to get to IKEA – is it a craving for flatpacks or the Swedish meatballs? Plus: lifting grown men, spoon-dancing, Spotify Wrapped, and rage bait.

We’re kicking off the 'F**k It, It’s Christmas' energy early - and it’s all happening. We unpack Brodie’s full transformation into wifey territory with her new man, along with her Official Sand Etiquette for the beach this summer. Plus, the ongoing AirDrop hassles pushing us to the brink, and the growing realisation that we need to book a rage room ASAP.

This week we’re joined by the wonderful Jenna Carruthers, aka Mortgages with Jenna. We had her on the podcast a couple of years ago and she was so helpful that we had to get her back. If you’re thinking about buying a home, Jenna’s here to show you it doesn’t have to feel so scary or isolating. With over 18 years’ experience in financial services - and having bought, sold and built property herself - Jenna knows how overwhelming it can be. She’s built her own property portfolio both as a single woman and as a working mum and wife, so she truly understands the journey.
