I found this podcast because of Bron’s episode. Now I’m listening to old episodes and have just listened to the episode with Jess Perkins.
I felt so seen when you talked about being the parent that asks their kids to think about what they are being shown in TV etc. I feel like buzzkill when I point out the sexism or whatever.
What a devastatingly moving interview with Bron Lewis. As well as being a brilliant comedian she is a superb storyteller and her experience should be the subject of a Royal Commission. This was an absolutely outstanding insight. Clare is such a beautiful interviewer, thank you for bringing us Bron’s story.
Thanks for giving us lots of insights of Sammy P, one of my favourite podcasters… and how I discovered Clare!
Love tuning in and excited about the upcoming eps! Your revelation post holiday resonated and hope they also stick for me too! Keep up the great work Tonts!
Love Tonts soothing voice and the podcast is just so heartfelt and you can feel Claire’s passion throughout. 💚 thank you Claire for this beautiful poddy x
