Wrong. Wrong. And wrong again. You'd think that I'd have learned by now. I've had fifty-three years to practice, after all. But no. Still, I make the mistake of thinking that to make things 'better' and 'easier', I must look outside of myself. Go far afield. Spend a ton of money and wrap my mum and me up in cashmere rugs, then sit alongside Rose and Kathy Bates in first class on the Titanic. Way off, Liz. Not even close. This week's podcast update is brought to you with love, tenderness and gratitude. And a few tears. We wanted to share three things that happened to us in the past few wee ..read more

Say it. While you still can

This was one of the hardest podcast episodes I have ever recorded. But it was necessary. I won't watch the recording back because I know for a fact that I'll get cold feet and tell Bri to delete it. So. I hope it's okay and that it isn't too upsetting for you—my sincere apologies if it is. My intention was never to make you feel sad, only strong. Hugged. Confident. Brave enough to speak your truth. To always say what you wish to say to the people who matter the most. Because the world needs truth. The world needs real. The world needs people like you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for ..read more

Another behind-the-scenes podcast where Liz and Brian share their decision to discuss such personal details about their marriage and life in public (including talking about Liz's mum, who was recently diagnosed with terminal cancer). The couple talks about how their family is (trying) to navigate the "new normal", addressing guilt, wrestling with emotions and lastly, the importance of not assuming to know what others are thinking or feeling. You never know. Not ever. If you doubt this statement, just remember what I told you about the Spitfire. This podcast is my and Brian's outlet: our escape ..read more

Yesterday, Liz experienced floatation therapy. Spent the day floating in a tank of salt water. Alone. No lights. No sounds. No Bri. This week, the couple discuss the experience and Brian voices his very strong opinions on 'Crotch Eye-balling' and other weird and wonderful alternative therapies. Sit back, nod, relate, and giggle while the couple talks about whacky stress relief, disastrous Greek hotels, and listener holiday laments. Enjoy! We want to hear from you!

I don't know about you, but I get the feeling that people are ready for a change. I'm not sure what that collective "change" is, but I know there is one. I can feel it. Deep in my bones. Under the bits of orangey, saggy flesh. In this week's podcast, as well as bringing you bang up-to-date with what's been going on in the the world of La Deacles, we wanted to share a few personal "ins". Ins for 2024.

Gatecrashers, royalty & deranged morning routines
It's a Drama: Life in New Zealand Podcast.
by Liz Deacle & Brian Deacle

Liz and Brian’s morning routine has changed drastically. Just when they thought they’d discovered a nice quiet hidey-hole to indulge in some golfy meditation, a bunch of rude gatecrashers (and a soggy beast) forced Liz to act quite strangely. Talking of strange… In this weeks husband and wife we discuss the glorious habits of the Queen’s alkie sister, why Brian feels inferior to a hunk who never sleeps and what on earth we will tell our 19-year-old daughter, Tess when she comes home for Christmas and is faced with a lucky bag.

In this week's episode, husband and wife Liz and Brian set out to discover if it is healthy for a couple to spill the beans about personal stuff online. Reveal all. Is it really necessary to wash those filthy sheets in public, or should 'things like that' be folded neatly into a square and rammed into the top drawer with the flowery hankies? Let's find out... While we're at it, you'll also hear about rabbits, breasts, and Michael's best friend, Viagra. Enjoy! Don't forget to leave us a review (PLEASE!!) and share this podcast with a friend!
