The Thinkergirls Pod Channel

Stacey June and Kristie Mercer have trouble with authority. They are commonly known as The Thinkergirls. They are BFF’s, inquisitive beings and find the funny in the f*cked. This Pod Channel is the home of conversations full of thoughts you are thinking but not saying and giving space for questions those are often too scared to ask about love, politics, how often you tan (and why) and the complexities of relationships, health and friendships. You may have heard the girls on their national radio show ‘The Thinkergirls’, or seen them on the telly – they are also known to throw a killer live event. Watch out for their live recordings at a city / town near you. For enquiries / bookings, please contact hello@thinkergirl.com.au www.thethinkergirls.com.au Hosted on Acast.
