The Fionas are back! It's been almost 2 years, but the time has come to lay down some new chat. After a bit of a catch up, there are some theatre and TV recommendations, a discussion of what Season 7 will hold and a tidbit of practical help about dealing with leftover food and speed tidying. Mens sansa in freezero sano. Or something.

If music be the food of friendship, speak on! We’re on the very broad topic of music this episode. Before that, though, there’s a lot of chat and some fairly serious recommendations of reading and watching. It’s all very harmonious, of course.

Pushing the boundaries of their known universe, Fiona and Fiona are on the topic of solar systems, galaxies and black holes in this episode. There's a recommendation of something to read, one of something to watch, and then a lot of spacey chat, some of which is rooted in fact, and all of which is full of wonder.

The Fionas are on home territory in this episode, talking about the world of theatre. After some book recommendations and a long-forgotten Pixar movie, conversation turns to snobbery, intercity and interval ice cream. And a lot of Empty Space...
