Mathieu and Michele are getting dolled up for the last episode of Season Three! That’s right dear valued listener, in this episode our hosts are exploring the fascinating evolution of makeup. Mathieu takes us back to its traceable origins in ancient Egypt, where both men and women embraced cosmetics for practical and religious purposes. He also explores how they used the natural resources around them to create things like eyeliner and blush! We find out how the attitude about makeup shifted so drastically in society, and then about its rapid commercialisation in the golden age of Hollywood thanks to the world’s newest marketing tool - the Starlett!

Michelle takes us through makeup's more modern history, including the harming effects that unattainable beauty standards forged from magazines had on women. But it’s not all doom and gloom! With the rise of social media, everyone is empowered to express themselves through makeup, find inspiration from across the globe and break free from the traditional norms of makeup. Well, almost everyone…their special guest Coral Bleach who happens to wander in when Michelle leaves the room and tries to sell Mathieu her latest makeup wares seems to like the norms just fine.

What starts with M, has four wheels and can take you around Australia? A motorhome! In this episode of M&Em our mellifluous hosts have a chat with Michelle's Uncle and motorhome enthusiast, Geoff, about his 3 and half year experience travelling around this beautiful country of Australia in a motorhome. From getting stuck in deep mud to swimming with whale sharks, his journey certainly had its marvellous and muddled moments. It was in these trials Geoff used his military and police background to think on his feet and overcome the obstacles you're bound to face on the great open road.

Welcome to another episode of M&Em, where this week our dynamic duo Matthieu and Michelle are taking you on a captivating journey through time as they explore the fascinating world of mega influencers (not the TikTok kind) who have left an indelible mark on society.

Matthieu unravels the extraordinary life of Catharine Macaulay, whose observations and literary works on class and societal structure helped shape our political landscape into what we know today, including the creation of the modern senate thanks to some inspiration from the ancient Greeks! Michelle then delves into a positively enthralling time in history - the prohibition. Brace yourself for an intoxicating exploration of famous ‘M’ adjacent bootleggers, with a spotlight on the infamous William McCoy, whose name became synonymous with quality contraband during the era of Prohibition and resulted in the coining of a phrase we all use today - the real McCoy!
