30. Fascinating Foetuses & Christmas Chaos

Two Flat Whites Podcast

Fontanelles, tastebuds, blue eyes and more 👶🏻 Babies are fascinating and in this season finale we've lined up some cool facts about them that will BLOW YOUR MIND (unless you know all of this already...doubt it). We also debunk some common baby myths which is cute. Just give us our own TV show already.

We can't forget about CHRISTMAS! 🎄 Tune in as we say cheerio to 2023 with a Christmas themed 'Reddit Reacts' segment, which always seems to deliver the goods in terms of people doing shocking things to other people for shocking reasons, even at a time of giving.

Alex has a leaky roof and just can't seem to catch a break with it. More of 'My Maternity Moment' from Laura's pregnant self as we discuss what it's like to be pregnant and also think you're living in a simulation. And a bad book review on fatherhood sends us into a frenzy of "WTF how does something like this exist???".
