This week, Kate and Tansy get deeply nostalgic (and wildly
unhinged) as they unpack the creative roots and cultural moments
that shaped who they are - from stage shows in the living room to
sexual awakenings via Charlie's Angels and True Blood.
They dive into how childhood play, fashion, television, and early
artistic influences paved the way for lives in writing and
theatre. Along the way, they explore tall poppy syndrome, bossy
little girls with big plans, Fran Fine, Judy Moody, awkward
vampire crushes, and that one haircut that changed everything.
It’s funny, personal, and occasionally chaotic - but always
reflective and full of heart.

Why fashion and film weren’t just entertainment — they were
survival and self-expression
Creativity is often formed in the most playful, personal, and
sometimes cringeworthy moments of childhood
Fashion and pop culture can be powerful tools of identity and
expression
It’s brave to say, “I’m good at this” — especially in a
culture that rewards self-doubt
Big political and cultural events can quietly (or loudly)
shape how we see the world, ourselves, and our work
Your childhood passions are probably still running the show
(just with better lighting)
