AMATEUR AUTOBIOGRAPHIES | Reading Our Childhood Writing | The Other Marthas Podcast 005 The Other Marthas Podcast

    • History

Welcome to The Other Marthas: the show where a drama student and a film graduate try to make sense of things we wish we were qualified in instead. In this episode, we take a trip down memory lane and delve into our childhood writings, which reveal a little more of our respective psyches than perhaps we strictly intended. Tune in for the saga of Polly the chocolate thief, a 10-year-old's appeal to the government to stop global warming, and why no Martha should  be left alone around tea, sprinklers, or naked flames.  

Please note, while this episode generally centres around childhood memories and cringe-worthy accounts, some of our written anecdotes may not be for you - if vomit-based stories make you feel queasy, avoid the section from 30:03-37:40, and if you'd prefer to bypass the unfortunate plight of an injured insect, we wouldn't recommend 38:09-38:48!
