Summary

Time for our final look back at the best couples' conversations from our archive.


This week we're heading back to one of our live episodes. After our interview Martin & Shirlie were good enough to stick around and record a special episode answering questions from our audience. You can find the interview in our archive but we wanted to play this bonus episode - Martin and Shirlie were on EXCELLENT form talking about Kemp's Crunchies (not at all what Kate was thinking!), Martin's gardening tribute to his dad, and the film you never knew Martin was involved in!


Our 500th episode is coming soon - and we'd love to hear from you. Whether you're new to our podcast (welcome!) or an OG listener - we want to know which episodes you've enjoyed the most. Just drop us an email to hello@whitewinepod.com - we'd love to hear from you.


We'll be back on Thursday with a brand new episode.


Cheers!
