Love this podcast all the way from Australia
This was and is my lifesaver through multiple lockdowns, now working my way through the back catalogue, it is fabulous
Thank you x
Discovered your pod last year during lockdown in Australia.
We didn’t have it anywhere near as bad here as so many other countries, but we all still needed to find little ways to save our sanity.
My bedtime ritual to calm my mind was listening to Australian Rules Football (AFL), AFL fantasy or AFL supercoach pods, Roy and HG, and Australian nature/bush sounds. So you might say the Tom & Lorenzo pod wasn’t my usual content :)
But I’ve loved listening to you both (& yr cats), and found it warming and comforting, have learned about culture, artistic and pop culture issues and LGBTI issues and had some laughs too. Bless you both, you’re both treasures. Thank you 💕
Engaging cultural commentary
