We Spent $2,000 On Dinner And Got An Eighth Of A Radish
This week on Grab Her By The Mic , Han takes us through the birthday dinner that started it all, a $2,000 degustation at Three Blue Ducks Burradoo that somehow left the table hungrier than when they arrived, headlined by a single eighth of an unpickled radish presented like a $500 oyster. There's a warm welcome that tasted vaguely off, a dessert that Philsy insists Han said smelled like Ambi Pur, and a very confident tip from Han's dad, who clearly has spent too much time in a country with a tipping culture. In The Weekly Spiral , the girls cover a 96 year old TikTok star who tore up her retirement village's warning letter on camera, a man who allegedly used a stolen kitten as bait during a failed bank robbery, and a mime who terrorised a Massachusetts walking trail for two months before things took a genuinely bizarre turn involving cooking oil. The Hyperfix goes deep on surveillance culture, why she's been tracking her entire family for years, Philsy’s pine tree incident that started it all, and the very real research on what constant location checking does to trust. Then it's The SideQuest with Philsy's Red Flag Or Soulmate game, obsessions of the week (a $38.74 smart ring that might catch fire, and a maternity clothes haul that didn't break the bank), and a Weekly Manifest built entirely around a radish based revenge plot. Explicit, feral, occasionally educational and accidentally therapeutic. See you next Tuesday. CHAOS CORRECTIONAL (FACT-CHECK CORNER) Stick around after the outro for Chaos Correctional - where Han cleans up the confident nonsense we said on air with just enough research to be dangerous.
