We are three Melbourne girls who had nothing better to do than start a podcast while we were all living la vida lockdown - but now we are free! Yay!
We take aim at one random topic each week along with a bottle or three of wine and attempt to make some sense of it.
Ever thought about what superpower you would have if given the chance? I think we all have. Pour yourself a drink and have a listen to what powers the girls would have and why they would have them and see if yours are the same.
Biancaopened with a few examples of real-life superpowers and then cracked on to her segment telepathy. Turns out probs not going to be as fun as anticipated and she would probably just fuck off to the Himalayas away from society. After she helps Amy shave her murder floof, of course.
Amy then discussed her chosen power, telekinesis, the multiple applications it could have in everyday life, and what superheroes have these powers so you get an idea of what she wants to be able to do. Unfortunately, science is a thing so it's unlikely she is going to get the power to move things with her mind any time soon.
This is the Scarlet Witch from the Marvel franchise demonstrating her telekinesis powers.
Sarah ends with the wish of having the ability to control and create the four elements; Earth, Air, Fire, and Water (heart, go planet!). She was driven by the possibility of diverting or even stopping the devastation of natural disasters or maybe even creating one.
Who doesn't love an urban legend? Is there a basis that created the legend? Who knows?! The girls have a chat about some interesting urban legends and the tales behind them.
But first, what were we drinking?
Bianca was drinking Gossips - Sweet lips Moscato (coz I'm legit a trash bag)
Sarah opened up this week's episode with a background in what an urban legend is and how it can come about. She then went on to talk about the Icelandic Christmas legends, Gryla, The Yule, and their Murder Floof the Yule Cat.
Bianca bought some frivolity to the episode with 2 short tales; the first was about a man who is now one of our heroes and the second is about a bank robbery gone wrong.
Amydiscussed the big cats of Victoria in her home country of Australia. For over 100 years there have been stories about sightings of big cats in the bushlands of Victoria. Some of these big cats include panthers and pumas.
Amy discussed some of the possible origins of the cats and how they managed to survive in the Victorian bushland. As promised here is the link to the story published by the ABC news click here.
If you are interested in this urban legend we highly recommend that you watch a documentary by the Discovery channel available on Animal Planet called The Hunt.
