Lauren shares how she navigated two major career setbacks; one involving Disney and South America and the other a dodgy ex-manager. These experiences — as well as some other personal ones — have shaped her double-edged life philosophy.

After what feels like a TOFOP Greatest Hits episode (fleshlights, Stanley Cup) Charlie shares the story of his wet Easter camping trip. After a muddy setup, Charlie enjoys walking on the beach with his daughter in the rain, not surfing (he's not a surfer), and worrying about his campsite flooding.

In a round of upsets, Charlie is the most upset over St Kilda's dismal performance, however the prospect of mounting a Frost/Nixon style stage play about the (fictionalised) animosity between Chris Scott and James Hird puts him in a good mood. Wil thinks it's still too early to draw any conclusions about teams, but what is indisputable is how good The Bont is.
