Listen "S2E2: Three"
Episode Synopsis
Double, double toil and trouble, join the two of us on the pod to make a throuple – this episode is all about THREE.We’ve chosen THREE as the theme of our second episode of the season not because we can’t count, but because we both have exciting bookish news for our THIRD novels.Tracy’s third (and as-yet unpublished) novel – which is full of triplets and other threes – has been shortlisted for the NZSA Laura Solomon Cuba Press Prize. And Jenny’s third novel will be out in the world next month – Hurdy Gurdy is available now for pre-order, and out soon wherever you get your books. Huzzah!So with our minds full of thirds, we talk about good things coming in threes – wishes and witches, fates and furies, three-ring circuses and there dog nights. We contrast the strength and stability of triangles – geometrically and structurally speaking – with the usually destabilising presence of a third person in a relationship. (“There were three of us in this marriage, so it was a bit crowded.”)We each read from our own diaries, on the theme of THREE. We wonder if we laugh less as we get older. And we finish nostalgically, reigniting old friendships, Jen riding off on a horse, Tracy on (or perhaps being) a Shetland pony.We’ve got fab guests lined up for you in coming episodes – so join us on the podcast each month, for more diaries (and diary-adjacent) content.
