Episodes featuring Pamela Rabe:

S2 E2 | Who even is Ed Sheeran?

It’s one of those days where the fun slips out of everything, until the woman they call ‘bird lady’ finally emerges from the abandoned house down the street.

S2 E3 | Brother emergency

In which we meet Ruth Bader Ginsburg and walk to the post office.

S2 E4 | Everything stops

There are lots of cars in the street today. One is a white van. The other two are ambulances.

S2 E5 | A Moment of Trauma

Fitzroy seems different today, but the roadworks stop for nobody, and neither do the conversations.
