Drama in Vegas. (Over) worrying about our 23-yr-old son

Drama in Vegas. (Over) worrying about our 23-yr-old son

Author: Liz Deacle and Brian Deacle August 5, 2024 Duration: 26:40

Is it Just Me? Wouldn't every mother be the same? 

Our son is on holiday in Vegas. And of course, there've been a few dramas.

What was interesting, though, was how Liz and Brian reacted differently to some worrying news.

Go on, Bri. Put the coffee pot on... 

Enjoy!

You might think from the title It's a Drama Podcast that you're in for some heavy theatrics, but it's actually the opposite. Hosted by world traveller and best-selling comedy author Liz Deacle alongside her husband Brian, this is a space for the gloriously unfiltered and often hilarious conversations that happen between two people sharing a life and a suitcase. Each episode feels like pulling up a chair at their kitchen table, where the topics roam freely from travel mishaps and cultural observations to the everyday dramas of family, food, and navigating the second half of life with a sense of humor. Liz and Brian’s candid dynamic is the heart of the podcast, offering a blend of laughter and genuine honesty that makes the personal feel universal. You’ll find yourself in the middle of stories that are both frank and funny, often accompanied by the clink of a wine glass and the admission that adulthood isn't always a dignified affair. It’s less about destination and more about the messy, joyful, and relatable journey, making this a uniquely comforting listen for anyone who appreciates real conversation served with a generous side of comedy.
