My Mum's Bad Diaries
You're invited to eavesdrop as a mother reads out her teenage diaries to her daughter. Funny, candid, poignant and brave, this podcast is both living memoir and an investigation into what makes (and breaks) a woman. No scripts, no prep; just 40-year-old (diary) gold being unearthed. Even Jenny doesn't know what's going to come up as she lays bare her inner teen world to her daughter Lilika. Their motto is 'we go there', so what could possibly go wrong?

It's the first episode of season 4 and this one is all about noodles, breakfast of champions for the young back in 1983.
It's February 1983, mum is staying with girlfriends down at Queenscliff and the big fires are happening. Gran is ringing worried but all mum seems to care about is reading a new book Tom, being interested in a photography course, the F-Plan Diet and the No Nonsense merch: yoyos!
Mum's also waiting for a letter from Simon from Bristol, who's gone tobacco picking, and then one arrives!
