• Procrastination, Beasts, Vampire Puzzles, Bad Eyebrows and Bitch Barns
    Apr 27 2026

    Row and Cec enter a new Women's Shed, Bitch Barn, She Shed (whatever takes your fancy), then promptly get sidetracked by Clare Dane's latest, The Beast Within. Then we look at literary puzzles by kicking things off with Bram Stoker's Dracula, then the Moan Zone takes us from bad eyebrows to procrastination. Random, much? Yes, and it's just how we love it!

  • The Mother of All Calamities, Jon Hamm, V-line and cats vs dogs
    Mar 16 2026

    Are cats better than dogs? And can cats be trusted to give snuggles? Cec is on the fence about getting a new furry friend. We then deep dive into the fine art of writing books, as special guest NEW AUTHOR YAY Lisa Moule was deep in the trenches of writing her second novel. We're re-upping this episode from 2026 because Lisa's brand new book, The Mother of All Calamities, has just come out with Allen and Unwin. Go get a copy! Finally, Row has some advice for people wanting to travel to regional Victoria via V-Line (do it!) and Cec talks about Jon Hamm's new TV series, Friends and Neighbours.

  • Naughty bunnies, book reviews, poo balls and women's sheds
    Mar 8 2026

    Cec and Row were naughty bunnies this week and conveniently forgot that this podcast is actually called the No Books Book Club, and both brought books to discuss. We have a yarn about Mad Mabel by Sally Hepworth, which got on Row's radar via the Birds of a Feather book club. Cec has been reading Do We Deserve This? by Eleanor Elliott Thomas. We also touch on the wisdom that comes with age and the rapidly growing Women's Sheds movement. Finally, the Moan Zone is jettisoned for reader suggestions and we managed to stay on theme with a discussion about 'poo balls'.

  • The season for DVD binges and drinking custard from the carton
    Dec 22 2025
    Cec has been listening to the ABC's 'No One Saw it Coming' podcast, Row has been walking barefoot to Mordor with Frodo and Sam via the FULL full-length LOTR audiobook, we debate about whether Die Hard (the first one) is a Christmas movie and, we send our love to all those people who work over Christmas time. Thank you for joining us this year, it's been awesome.

  • Canberra corporate flights, Barnaby Joyce, Grand Designs, Pluribus and Black Friday hell
    Nov 29 2025
    Cec caught the plane to Canberra, saw Barnaby Joyce, and bore witness to Pauline Hanson getting the boot. Then we dived into the nostalgia that is the very long-running Grand Designs, looked at the new Apple TV show Pluribus, and the moan zone featured some terrible Black Friday customer service attitude. Can't a girl just get herself a bargain in peace?

  • Getting the ick, YA fiction, night disco parties and tiger snakes
    Aug 3 2025

    Certain words give us the ick, find out what Cec's is. Row gets chased by a tiger snake in pursuit of re-wilding with native trees, we look at the marvellous world of YA fiction, and find out what a Night Disco Party is, and why it's not nearly as fun as it seems.
