ABOUT THIS EPISODE
WORK WIFE GROUP CHAT
This week we are defending the little things that might be considered antisocial, but unfortunately, we get it.
We’re talking going places alone, leaving the group chat permanently muted, declining a call and immediately texting, saying no without creating an elaborate fake commitment, booking separate hotel rooms on girls’ trips, refusing to share dessert, not splitting the bill evenly when you had one Coke, and the absolute joy of a low maintenance friendship.
Then, for your consideration, we’re sharing the comfort movies we put on when life turns to shit. Georgia brings How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days and a deeply nostalgic Mary Kate and Ashley classic, while Brooke makes the case for Uptown Girls and, unexpectedly, Don’t Worry Darling.
And for the data you didn’t ask for: apparently Australians are getting significantly less trusting. We get into scams becoming frighteningly convincing, our growing suspicion of basically everything online, handing AI your credit card details, and whether we’re all destined to become increasingly cynical internet scholars.
Plus, this week’s addition to the Work Wife soundtrack.
