Mrs Woog explores career options, Mrs Berry is inexplicable chirpy, we talk porn and life choices with five teenage boys.

Mrs Woog is recovering from a groin strain and Mrs Berry comes over for dinner. And then cooks it too.

After Mrs Woog's house move, the women recline in her boudior and recount a very weird week.

The women couldn't get their shit together on the weekend so bring you a highly unusual Tuesday afternoon blitz. It's fast, it's furious, Mrs Berry tells a really boring story about sourdough.

There's a sneaky cheese, a bottle of bubbles, we TOUCH each other and laugh a lot. Sweet baby cheeses, breaking out never felt so good.

Still in iso, still emotionally erratic, still carb loading.

Our first ever episode recorded while not sitting next to each other. These are the stragest of times.

... for about 10 uninspiring seconds and then resumes the lower, harder seat to Mrs Woog, mother of a life saver. Literally.

After far too long (two weeks?) the ladies are back in the sadle (ok, upright, sitting upright at a desk) with tales of their lives and the world. Giddyup.

Mrs Woog has been solo parenting for three weeks. Mrs Berry was enjoying the first weekend in four of being at home. It's been a torrid time and both yearn for respite from reality. Mrs Woog wasn't even wearing a bra.

Mrs Berry becomes a teetotaller, for one day. Mrs Woogs is looking sharp after a week-long diet of the good cold & flu tablets and diet coke. Our teenagers are still trying to kill us. Mrs Berry decides to embark on a journey to make her body feel less like it's falling apart. And then there was the cheeseburger churn.

Having orgasms in your sleep - far less mess or hassle | Mrs Woog talks about wearing layers and Mrs Berry rolls her eyes so hard they fall out | When exercising isn't intentional so therefore annoying

Mrs Woog shows Mrs Berry how to painlessly remove her perimenopausal beard and that's all that really matters now.

Mrs Berry gets tricked into cooking Mrs Woog dinner because she's competitive and an idiot | Mrs Woog has a visitor | the dissection of a hot flush | joy | how not to spew on the bus

Recorded at a simpler time, when visions of Mrs Woog being chased by cows in a paddock brought joy and mirth.

This week there was ugly crying, on the Woog Berry Correctional Facility Period Scale an isolation block level bleed, tales of pork and a potential crossroads in footwear for Kim. Tackling the big issues as per usual.

Mrs Berry's latest public humiliation | Mrs Woog's misguided turbo fan girling moment | Oscar update | Jack's inaugural beauty spot

Kim goes in to battle for her son as the NDIS fails (again); A flusher shares just how hard it is when your ex-partner dies and you have under-age children; there's new love in the Woog house and Mrs Woog is on a tight leash.

Another week in review with hot flushes in the office, politicians behaving appallingly, parents losing their ever-loving minds at ungrateful teens and a review of our own event. Just a heads up, it got five stars.

World events have sent us reeling this week so we do our best to avoid them by talking about another Mrs Berry health crisis, dog spew, making friends at a time in life we generally hate all people and other stuff.

Another week, another opportunity for Mrs Berry to grossly overshare her body's activities. But Mrs Woog doesn't escape the medical gaze this week. Bits have been squeezed, massaged and invaded in homage to The Hot Flush. Is this misery loving company or just women supporting each other in the throes of a bodily revolt? Either way there is laughter, honesty, kindness and fun. Pluck away dear friends, pluck away.

The Hot Flush goes weekly! Mrs Berry spreads her legs for another man and it's not nearly as fun as she hoped. She also discovers just how bad she is at collecting a stool sample. Mrs Woog searchers for a new podcasting partner.

Competitive aerobics is back in our school system, which makes a (sometimes less, sometimes more than) monthly bloodaggedon seem not that bad. Tales from Byron Bay, listeners questions answered (we don't know how to deal with idiots either), Lady Gaga love and more!

Mrs Woog gets jiggy with the Villlage People (apparently they're still a) a thing and b) alive), Mrs Berry rants about crappy cultural festivals and no one gags. Not even once.

The Hot Flush Christmas Edition. Brought to you by Champagne, Twisties, show tunes and our deepest gratitude to all you flushes out there.

Stuff & nonsense, the latest installement of our PMs sexist skills, a call for medicinal alcohol, coping skills for parenting teens and our first ever booze review.

Mrs Woog and Mrs Berry tackle the big issues yet again - finding joy, caring for ageing parents, living with a 15 year old, applying for a job in your 40s and just how do you get a latex dress on.

Too lazy to be decent trophy wives, annoyed at millenials having their shit together, weary of relentless grooming and finding a quiet acceptance of the brutalism of a bomber jacket.

Mrs Woog and Mrs Berry present a masterclass on how to whinge. Name your price and we'll do a one-on-one session. 

Why so sad? Mrs Woog and Mrs Berry offer some up some of the things that help them beat the blues, Mrs Berry is in peak snark with Festival fashion in her sights and various other stuff and nonsense. 

After skating perilously close to inspirational quotes to survive parenting teens, normal snarking resumes. We talk babies, bed bugs, Barnaby and banks. Most of it makes us cranky. And hot. 

#onthelist returns with a vengeance this week. Cauliflower rice, zucchini pasta, facon - nothing is safe. Also, it's still hot in Australia. 

The sexual proclivities of vampires, perimenopausal sex or lack thereof, Kim's body recreates the prom scenes from Carrie, Mrs Woog talks about the sads, Kim fails to make Mrs Woog gag and that makes her sad. 

While Kim learns that even her blood is fat, Mrs Woog sets to writing her new book, The Sisterhood of the Travelling Period Pants. We hear poetry from when Mrs Woog was 12  and Kim reveals her first kiss turned the guy gay. But mainly, Hot Flush Radio has to happen. Can someone get onto that please? 

Look after yourself. Mrs Berry details how she does it. Mrs Woog says that's why we don't have any sponsors. Mrs Berry argues convincingly that Mrs Woog using the words tender, romance and Barnaby Joyce in the one sentence made her do it. 

Ditch the self hate, Mrs Woog stares down a troll, Corey Bernardi tells us childbirth "can be painful" and Kim makes Mrs Woog gag. Again.

Summer holiday postcard: Mrs Woog stops smoking and  Mrs Berry gets rid of her beard. Could anything else matter? 

Kim cleans bird poo off Mrs Woog's window. Hashtag not a euphemism. It's our season finale and quite frankly, is all over the shop, which means it's basically the same as the previous eight episodes, so just get onboard for some end of year nonsense.

"Quarter strength hogwash"? Pig's arse to that, Woogs and Berry talk all things farmyard*. (*Notreally.)  

A dog's breakfast quite frankly. 

We're fast and furious this episode with Kim getting Gilligan's Island and Rugby League confused while Mrs Woog embraces the downward dog to avoid her husband. 

Mrs Woog is poorly, Mrs Berry is forgetful and riding off the back of a week of unprecendent inexplicable rage. There's tea, solving the world's woes, the realisation we can blame everything on oestrogen and a fair wodge of opinion. Oh and Kim's pathological hatred of bike sharing. 

Kim will nude up for a forest romp but Kayte just couldn't be bothered. Unless there was schnitzel. Going off the grid and the lure of cheap champagne. 

A bit of everything and a lot of snark

Do you associate your name with your blog? Today, I am talking about whether you should use your real name when blogging or blog anonymously. Often times, bloggers introduce themselves to me and then say they blog anonymously. There are definite advantages of using your name and definite advantages of blogging anonymously. I am going to talk about some of the different options that are open to you that may be in between each choice. This is one of the decisions that bloggers face when starting a blog. Most at least ponder the question. Many use their real names straight away, but others really grapple with this decision. Note: this episode can be listened to in the player above or on iTunes or Stitcher In Today’s Episode: Using Your Real Name and Other Options Blog under your personal name and promote it prominently on your blog (this is what I’ve done here on ProBlogger). Perhaps the most extreme version of this is when you make your domain name your actual name. Blog under your personal name but don’t really promote yourself (this is what I’ve done on DPS – my name is on the about page and on any articles I wrote but not much more. Blog under an alias or just part of your name and promote that name. Some examples of this - early on on ProBlogger we had a writer who wrote for us called Skellie. Her blog was the same name - but it wasn’t her real name. Aussie blogger Mrs Woog is another good example. She blogged as Mrs Woog at WoogsWorld. An alternative to this might be using a maiden name rather than a married name if you have one - or visa versa - one for personal use and one for professional use. Blog without any name on your blog at all – letting the content speak for itself. This anonymous blogging has been done by many people over the years - for different reasons. So which is the best option? On ProBlogger I’ve always been blogging under my name, including it in the byline of my posts, I have a prominent about page, the blog is written in a personal tone, including personal details of my life and video and pictures of myself. On dPS however I took a different approach from day #1. While I always used my name as bylines on my articles and had it on my about and contact pages. I never really went out of my way to make the blog about me. I guess this was even reflected in the type of name I chose for the site. Digital Photography School communicates a brand that is a center for learning while ProBlogger feels more about a person (whether that is the author or the reader). I guess my point is to say that a variety of approaches can work and the decision is totally yours. There Are a Number of Factors to Consider: The topic - as I’ve already said - some topics probably lend themselves more to being transparent about who you are. The style of content - DPS was never a story telling type blog. It was about the content. The medium of content - if you’re purely producing text content you may run into less issues around your identity than if you’re posting pictures and video. Your long term plans - try to picture a few years forward about what you want to achieve with your blog. While it can be hard to do if you have clear goals this can impact your decision. do you want your blog to be a multi author blog? If so it might be advantageous to not make the blog fully about you if you ever choose to step away from your blog and sell. It can be quite helpful to have a blog that isn’t all about you personally. Monetization methods - some ways of making money blogging might be more suited to a more personal and transparent approach Banner ads, no worries about who you are Consultant, speaker or coach, people need to know who you are Influencer, you need a personal connection Ebook, course, etc. Better to be more open about who you are Anonymous bloggers still may be able to do these things, but it is more challenging

We talk about Kim's libido and Mrs Woog's suburban dog poo terrorist. Situation normal really.

@woogsworld (Kayte Murphy) Blogger. Writer. People-watcher. Over-sharer. Dumpling tragic. Whose world? Social media survival Australia's Next Top Mum-del Ming Dynasty At the end of the day

Just a few short years ago, making money from a blog was thought to be either not likely or piecemeal - certainly not lucrative. But that has certainly changed and brands are now far more interested in working with influencers - that is, bloggers who have built a following and have influence with their fans. In this episode we talk to one of them - Kayte Murphy who is better known as Mrs Woog, from the incredibly popular Woogsworld blog. As one of Australia’s first professional bloggers, she continues to lead the way and mentor other bloggers. In this episode, she shares valuable tips for catching the eye of brands and how to maintain your integrity when being paid to write.
