G’day and welcome back to Two Cousins One Chat and it’s time to crack open the 2026 Mailbag 📬🔥

After a quick weather update (its so humid), Kristy shares her recent trip down to Wilsons Promontory exploring the bike trails, pushing herself up the lookouts, spotting wallabies, wedge-tailed eagles, geckos and yes snakes. Fresh air and that Victorian coastal magic.

From there, we dive straight into what’s happening locally- yes folks there’s is a lot.

The Adelaide Fringe has officially kicked off, it’s the biggest arts festival in the Southern Hemisphere, and brings incredible energy and such a cool vibe to the city. Meanwhile, Adelaide is now the new home of the Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix, which feels like a pretty major flex for South Australia. Totally in Kristy’s wheelhouse she has a bit to say.

And of course, we couldn’t not talk about Melbourne’s iconic Moomba Festival. The parade, the fireworks, the waterskiing… and the Birdman Rally, where fully grown adults strap on homemade cardboard wings and confidently launch themselves into the Yarra River for our entertainment.

Then… the Mailbag opens.📬

Inside the Bag is:
• Ben’s “I’ll keep it short” speech’s (14 minutes later…)
• Rewards card checkout slow movers
• Train seat hoggers
• “I find that hard to believe” people

Send us your everyday frustrations because the 2027 mailbag is already warming up.
