The Ones That Got Away
S2 : Ep 15 - The Girl Who Was (Not) Called Tony
The girls take it all the way back to their very first FIFO gig… and wow, what a time to be alive.
Lorna confesses that when she first started, she fully planned to climb the construction ladder and become a superintendent which had Beverly in stitches. Are you for real girl?
They crack up remembering the time Bev told Lorna the wrong name of the new girl on site and Lorna confidently called her that name over the two-way all day long. The commitment. The chaos. An actual skit.
Safe to say… the girls absolutely LOST THEIR MARBLES on that job. Beverly shares the time she kicked a wall out of pure frustration, and Lorna opens up about snapping at the guy she was seeing for separating her and Bev at work. Heads were LOST!
This episode is packed with laughter, unhinged memories, and stories from the wildest site they ever worked on.
We hope you love listening to it as much as the girls loved recording it

54:16||Season 2, Ep. 18The girls are still battling coughs, congestion, and what feels like a lifelong relationship with phlegm. At this point, it’s less a symptom and more a personality trait.They chat about their new housemate Selina, who’s slotted seamlessly into The Coddiwomplers crew. After being well and truly initiated into the realities of Perth life (including getting scammed when they first arrived), Beverly and Lorna step up to help Selina buy her first car - armed with hard-earned wisdom from FIFO life, pre-starts, and never being fooled twice.This week, the conversation takes a deeper turn as the girls dive into menstrual cycles and contraception, sparked by Lorna’s going to get her Mirena coil removed (but was convinced by the doctor to leave it in) opening up an honest, unfiltered chat about bodies, hormones, and everything in between.
