Rosie and Jessica’s Day of Fun

Episode 142: Turning Red and 00s Nostalgia

In episode 142, Rosie and Jessica dive into some noughties nostalgia in accidental tribute to their review of Pixar’s Turning Red which, unsurprisingly, they loved. If you know where we can hug a giant red panda, please say. Rosie accidentally recorded her audio in the corridor of a submarine so apologies for that; she has been taken out and shot and it won’t happen again.

We’re stepping back into the podcast time machine this week and visiting 2015 which, quite frankly, sounds great. Back in Episode 51, Rosie and Jessica were celebrating three years of podcasting with their Top 5 Sisters (you see, Rosie and Jessica are sisters so it all makes sense.)
