Today we are joined by a super special guest - Mel's big brother, Tim! Tim is a teacher, performer and choir conductor and along with his love of the Bravo franchises, has so generously shared his story of coming out as gay in his thirties with us. Tim reflects on his journey to owning his sexuality and the impact that has had on his relationships, his sense of self, and his faith.
Tim's story is his own experience but we're sure you'll agree, it's an honest and vulnerable share, full of wisdom, bravery and love that so many will be inspired and encouraged by.
You can find Tim's singing page here: https://www.facebook.com/timreynoldssings/
Tim mentions Inclusive Faith - a website supporting those that identify as christian and LGBTQ+ as well as their allies. https://inclusivefaith.lgbt/

Sorry guys, we need to offer a trigger warning here for a couple of poo related stories, right out of the gate on this episode.
We're telling quite a few tales today including a poo intruder, the shocking price of fast food, our feelings about replacing underwear and some readers shooting their shot and asking a very deep question.

Enjoy this delirious conversation (which was our second take of the day after some technical difficulties). We discuss Taylor Swifts re-records, Gabby needing to watch Girls, and how everyone is a rat or a pig. It's ridiculous. But it also works.

Gabby is worried that we don't have enough of a bedrock for our episodes but Mel is embracing of the whimsy. Very mixed messages/role reversal for us. This episode brings a middle of the night house emergency, why we love listening to regular people podcasts, our fav true crime shows or docs and Mel's deep connection to Paul Mescal via working at the Maxol filling station.

We're back with an episode where we get to hear from you - our favourite! We asked you to tell us your stories of friendships lost or broken - something that we have all experienced the pain of but don't really talk about as much.
