The Lunchbox Theory & Our Complicated Feelings About YouTube

This week, Monique, Amelia, and Stacey are discussing the 'Jessica' hack gone slightly awry. We talked about it. Our listeners tried it, and some of the results were…spooky. So, why has even Jessica Biel weighed in on this viral trend? Also, we unpack the YouTube-ification of Netflix and why Danny Goh and Miss Rachel are suddenly taking over our Netflix profiles. We dive into the 'Wild West' of YouTube and why it's banned in Monz's house after a Peppa Pig incident. Plus, we talk about the list of things you must be able to perform to be considered a fully-fledged 'Supreme Adult'. From public speaking to calling the doctor yourself, what exactly is a normal sleep pattern when you have small humans anyway? And, we discuss 'The Lunchbox Theory' and why we collectively need to lower the bar and become 'underachieving' parents. The Recommendations Stacey: The Swan Princess (1994) – Now on Netflix! It features a French frog voiced by John Cleese and a princess who demands more than just 'you're pretty'. Amelia: Taco Goat Cheese Pizza – A $15 card game that actually makes teenagers laugh. Monique: Biozet Attack – The supermarket laundry detergent with the magic enzyme that actually gets the 'funk' out of bed-wetting accidents.
