SIM Ep 161 Pod 52: adoption, crime solving and rolling with life's punches

In this week's podzine, Mick and Hannah meet up with the Drunk Women Solving Crime, aka Taylor Glenn and Hannah George, to chat true crime, booze and very audible gasping. Ahead of National Adoption Week, which starts on October 15, adopter Dotty Winters shares the pros, cons, joy, tears and hard-won wisdom of the process. Author Jean Hannah Edelstein talks about her new non-fiction This Really Isn't About You about how Lynch Syndrome and her father's death turned her life upside down and that one time Tinder wasn't an arsehole. For Jenny Off The Blocks, Jen chats with Emma Bramwell, who is running 30 races in the 12 months leading up to what would have been her brother Adam's 30th birthday. Dunleavy Does Disney's Coco and maybe-just-maybe does a tiny cry, and there's a fierce doughnut debate in the Bush Telegraph. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/standardissuespodcast.
