This week Caro and Corrie reflect on a few cultural highlights they've been to lately and talk Book Club breakups. 

We pay tribute to Clive James who died last week and look at his life and contribution to Australian literature and culture. 

Corrie's 'Crush of the Week' is sadly her dog Bearsy, who also passed away recently. Vale Clive and Bearsy!

In BSF - Corrie highly recommends AFL star Nic Naitanui's kids book Little Nic's Big Day (available at My Bookshop HERE). Caro deep dives on The Crown Series 3 and shares a simple but delicious recipe for chickpea puree from Karin Martini's wonderful cook book Feasting (available HERE), see recipe below. 

This week Caro's slightly grumpy about the whole concept of Black Friday sales - do we need to follow everything the US does?

In '6 Quick Questions' we cover a whole lot of weird issues, including Corrie's weird website discovery of Tipsy Elves.com and a musical based on the life experience of Michael Jackson's glittery glove! 

Caro's GLT is one for hummus lovers - Cafe 55 in Elsternwick.
