In episode 106, Rosie and Jessica catch up on some cultural items, a wide range of weather and the Herculean burden of cleaning out flowers. Then there’s a very spoiler-y Late Review of 2015’s revenge-comedy-drama-western The Dressmaker and a whole bunch of articles and videos to check out in What Have We Seen This Week.
