Marriage, Menopause and One (Big) Mistake.

Marriage, Menopause and One (Big) Mistake.

Author: Liz Deacle and Brian Deacle March 26, 2021 Duration: 23:25

If you are looking for tips on working from home with your spouse then you might definitely certainly want to listen to this podcast.

For sure.

Dealing with being together 24/7  is a regular conversation at our dinner table. We have been working together (on and off) as husband and wife - both from home and out of the house - for the past twenty-five years.

And we haven't yet killed each other.

Notice how I said yet. 

Working From Home With Your Spouse. Marriage. Menopause & Everything In Between

That almost changed today.

After sitting down and having a forty-minute conversation about working, living and remaining in love with your spouse, I discovered that Brian (yes, it was his fault, not mine, not that I am one to blame of course) forgot to turn his phone (the same phone that records the podcast) onto flight mode.

To cut a long story short, the phone rang five minutes into the podcast and unbeknown to us, stopped recording.

Thirty minutes of nothingness.

Luckily, the phone camera (that is used to record the interview for YouTube) was still recording so, rather than scrap the whole conversation, we decided (after watching the video recording through) that we would release this conversation to the world using only the phone audio.

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.
