Mandy is a random 30-something aussie with a lot of thoughts, opinions, and a gift for rambling without interruption. This is where she does that.
I barely recall recording this. I apologise in advance
I did an adult thing! I bought a car! Wooo!
TRIGGER WARNING: Discussion of TERF's (and how much they suck). Mentions of serial killers but no gory details.
One day I will be able to point to this episode as an example of how manic and scatterbrained I get without a steady supply of caffeine. I apologise in advance!
Omg it's not my fault I'm slow to upload I was siiiick. And my friends found my podcast and are now privvy to my weird innermost thoughts. Enjoy that if you can!
Wherein I recap what the hell is up with my back Kyle, no what'd you say dude what the fuck dude, step the f*ck up Kyle...(I still miss vine). Have had a lot going on and I catch you up. Enjoy!
Just because I don't mention the pirate show this episode doesn't mean I am not still obsessed. I 100% am. It's 50% of my personality now.
Recorded after a failed first attempt! Thanks for the reminder and for tolerating my insanity in general.
The pirate brainrot continues, fanfiction is still being written and I may be gonna make stickers and stuff? Who knows.

One of those nights that just needs ice-cream. Discussing cramps, how money makes no sense so splurging on unecessary items is totally ok, and the unexpected joy of line dancing.
I know I'm rambly normally but goddammmn I have outdone myself. This one could win an award at the ramble Olympics.
Chatting about self esteem and positive self image while baking cookies. It's all happening!
Mandy has been isolated this week as she debates whether to leave the house or not, so if she sounds more unhinged than normal it's not her fault. It would probably help if she stopped writing the descriptions in third person. ;)
In the first episode of 2022 Mandy muses on her weird ability to memorise everything she hears, except the signals from her body to eat, sleep and self care.
It's almost Christmas and Mandy somehow found time to have a meltdown and clean her entire house, she also has a fever the entire episode so it may be more scatterbrained than normal. You can email the podcast at giftedgasbag@gmail.com

The week before my brother comes for a visit, we discuss game nights, the importance of weather and pubs in a small town and try to get through more of the getting to know you Questionnaire!
Actors who we just don't trust, games nights, and I attempt to answer some questions from a getting to know you questionnaire without getting too sidetracked.
Tonight we're rambling about clothes dryers, high school english assignments and it's too late and even though I just recorded this I cannot remember what I just said. I need sleep. Does anyone read this? Hi if you do!
