Can I Marry You Again in 10 Years?

<p>Well someone is having&hellip;what&rsquo;s the opposite of WILD&hellip; mundane (?) dreams of fastidious domesticity. Spoiler, it&rsquo;s Gem and it has Revz concerned. Revz has caught the ick from something online but it&rsquo;s revealing a pretty uncool double standard. Gem had a very close encounter quite literally from inside her vagina, and Revz is inspired by some family friends who &ldquo;remarry&rdquo; every decade. It opens up a big chat about vows, commitment and what you&rsquo;d do differently if you did it all again. If you even would, eh Revz?&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>#NotSpon</p> <p>Gem: https://open.spotify.com/show/2KyKUdEcHlnb4mENQYT4c3</p> <p>Revz: https://www.clinique.com.au/product/1603/4772/makeup/lip-glosses/almost-lipstick</p> <p>-</p> <p>If you want more of us in your week, you can subscribe to MORE TIME FOR THIS for more eps and giveaways all month long:</p> <p>Apple &mdash;&nbsp;https://apple.co/wedonthavetimeforthis</p> <p>Spotify &mdash; https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/moretimeforthis</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

You Let Your Kids Watch That?

<p>First up, we have a much requested update on Beanie-gate. The only person not that interested is Revz, but she&rsquo;s happy to oblige us all. Gem watched an old classic with the kids, unearthing a search for family movies, and in a podcasty twist of fate, so did Revz. But what&rsquo;s got her shook is the concerned DMs about Leo love scenes and big emotions. Gem doesn&rsquo;t have time for her growing screen time guilt and is being tempted by a family digital detox but we&rsquo;re all asking, will it get harder before it gets better?&nbsp;</p> <p>#NotSpon :</p> <p>Gem: Lulu Funk Underwear https://www.lulufunk.com/en-au</p> <p>Revz: Braun IPL https://au.braun.com/en-au/female-hair-removal/silk-expert-pro-ipl</p> <p>-</p> <p>If you want more of us in your week, you can subscribe to MORE TIME FOR THIS for more eps and giveaways all month long:</p> <p>Apple &mdash;&nbsp;https://apple.co/wedonthavetimeforthis</p> <p>Spotify &mdash; https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/moretimeforthis</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

Some Rules About My Kid on Your Socials…

<p>Well, after you all broke the internet yesterday, we are getting straight into the important stuff &mdash; an update on Gem&rsquo;s toilet cubical selection data collection. Still here? Good. Cos just like every 2 year old toddler girl, we are out here being very busy and important, so naturally our lives are completely in order. Come again? You heard me. Revz doesn&rsquo;t have time for the inconvenient truth that organisation actually works when getting your life together. Honestly, mind blown. Gem does have time for some very direct social media boundaries her relatives have laid down, and this sparks an interesting chat about kids and creative &ldquo;show off&rdquo;era vs sporting prowess. So yes, once again, we go everywhere, today! Thanks for being with us!&nbsp;</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

Back To Toddler Town

<p>Well, the sparkly tap-dancing show cat is well and truly out of the bag! We’re going on tour and omg yes, Perth, yes Adelaide, yes Tassie girlies we are COMING for you! This week, Gem is getting her sickness for the season out of the way, and while she rests, she is loving seeing men coming out with the allyship lately, but Revz isn’t so sure it’s time for the trophy cabinet just yet. Revz doesn’t have time for her 7 year old’s apparent regression to Toddler Town, and Gem is so very over her post partum hormones (but stop the press she’s DOING something about it — and it involved booking an appointment?!). Some very handy not spons and a lot of opinions served up this week.

Gem doesn&rsquo;t have time for a 12 year old boy by the side of the road (true story), and Revz&rsquo;s kids made a deal with each other that she doesn&rsquo;t know whether or not to intervene on.

Slow-Clap &amp; Walk Away

<p>Happy Tuesday you wonderful legends. Kicking off the week, Revz kids have invented a one-part wholesome, one-part toilet humour game and it has to be shared. Speaking of Revz kids, Kate got a nanny and she’s higher than a zoomer on schoolies on this new world order. Gem was nonchalant about the school reunion but then found herself surprisingly chalant. And Revz is playing with bullying tactics to survive the primary school yard. Have a wonderful week, we adore the milky tits off you. </p><p><br></p><p>Not spon:</p><p>-Gem: Jetproof sensory socks</p><p>-Kate: Cotton on crew socks</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

Not My Responsibility!

<p>Well, Gem went and mentally un-loaded on her kid&rsquo;s whole soccer team. Tone deaf? Potentially. Fair and absolutely reasonable? Also yes. But did we mention she JUST met these people? Then, oh look, it&rsquo;s our old friend beauty standards back to make us have feelings. Gem is battling greys, from every angle (emotionally, physically&hellip;philosophically?) and it really makes us examine it all once again. Have we evolved or is this the slippery slope in action and why is this patriarchal topic ours to solve? The internal battle is REAL folks. Then Revz has concerns over Gem&rsquo;s nutrition and accidentally unearths some deep shit. Did Revz just concern-troll unearth some trauma? After all it is Tuesday. Also we both need to bleed and that might explain the entire episode.

Making and Keeping Friends in the Mum Era (spoiler) Is Hard

<p>CW: grief, loss, infant loss. DLs we touch on grief and loss today, if today is not the day for you to hear that kind of content, please skip this one. </p><p><br></p><p>We’re away from the city! What are we doing? Not working on the not-live-show, surely. Revz is stoked to be back in the country as she’s a tennis girlie now, and she won’t hear otherwise. Speaking of “anyone for tennis”, Gem is relieved because Yai is home (praise be) and she almost made it to the end of her trip without losing her marbles. And Gem has found a new reason to exercise that she never thought she needed, probably because of what the algorithm has been serving up, which has her attention, but not her mental health in mind. And Revz had a friend come to her with some friendship problems which gets us asking, why is friendship the first thing to go from the to-do list when you’re a mum?

Trolled By Your Toddler

<p>Has your child accidentally booty called someone late at night, or FaceTimed your boss in the wee hours of the morning? Cos, same. Same. In this week’s theme of absolute calamity and chaos, Revz made an accidental order that proved rather expensive (and embarrassing), and then got borderline scammed in a consignment store. Gem is doing some serious soul searching (hello 7 year itch!) and it’s leading her to some really interesting places - asking lots of curly questions of herself!

Are Gen X the Best Parents?

<p>Well, it’s getting colder in Sydney and Revz has a gripe…#closethebed, Gem is dismayed at her kid’s lack of sh*ts when it comes to her opinion (or downright disdain, frankly) and Revz is a smug reformed girlie again. But let’s get down to it, Gem wants to share a story but is feeling mightily self conscious thanks to some online judgement that’s given her pause. We ponder on why the zoomers date how they do, and who’s to thank for their progressive attitudes to sex and dating, and we wonder if the Gen Xs just nailed this whole thing in this way. Then, Revz doesn’t have time for her newest parenting frontier, as much as she wants to absolutely nail it.

What Do I Bring To Your BBQ in 2024?

<p>Kicking off this Tuesday with a couple of retractions cos apparently our brains have left the building. Is it post-partum? Is it Term 1 craziness, is it low iron levels? Surely there’s something we can blame? Then Revz has a non-retraction (think they call that a double-down) and QUIET DOWN INTERNET, OK? Now that’s done, Gem doesn’t have time for people messing with the social contract of how we host. Well, at least that’s how she starts out, buried under a mountain of ShouldsTM, guilt and projection, but is one couple’s social occassion yet another lesson in how we “should” all be doing things, or is this one of those “there’s two types of people” situation? Does Gem need to feel pressure or is there a “way” things are done that we need a memo on? Gem has so little time for this that we end up spending the entire episode arguing over the absolute minutia of hosting and attending a social occassion and thank god cos it seems there’s a LOT to it! Two killer watches for #notspons and a whole lotta am-I-the-a**hole vibes in this one, DLs, so strap yourselves in! </p><p><br></p><p>-</p><p>If you want more of us in your week, you can subscribe to MORE TIME FOR THIS for more eps and giveaways all month long:</p><p>Apple — https://apple.co/wedonthavetimeforthis</p><p>Spotify — https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/moretimeforthis</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
