Drenched, Bothered And Bewildered

Drenched, Bothered And Bewildered

Author: Liz Deacle and Brian Deacle August 27, 2022 Duration: 35:46

Ciao, Bella and welcome once again to Porto Santo Stefano in Tuscany, Italy where Liz and Brian are (still) currently housesitting for Six. Whole. Weeks.

I know. You don't have to tell them. They feel like that couple, Calvin and Zatera Spencer who won the lottery three times in one month.

In this week's soggy Italian podcast episode you will discover:

Why Italy came to a standstill for at least ten and a half hours.

Why some women look SO cool in cow boots while Liz on the other hand looks like a farmer in drag.

What Brian thinks about boats and why he nearly bit Liz's head off when she infers that he's really rubbish at...

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.
