Deep, playful and unhinged, Distant Conversations is a weekly conversational podcast hosted by Benedict Leong, Gabriele Sidlauskaite and Simon Throssell dedicated to all millennials trying to navigate the ins and outs of this crazy thing we call life - may our downturns help you go upwards!
EPISODE #5
We Wish You A Merry Christmas... but make sure you don't sing that in front of Gabs. In this week's episode, Ben, Gabs and the voice of Simon talk about how they will be celebrating Christmas, why The Princess Switch is THE worst movie and how the Bible is wrong about where Jesus was born.
ABOUT "DISTANT CONVERSATIONS"
Distant Conversations is a twenty-something podcast hosted by siblings from different mothers Benedict Leong (Ben) and Gabriele Sidlauskaite (Gabs). Navigating through life is already complicated as it is but as a twenty-something today, things just get more...interesting.
Now that the two are forced to be “distant” from one another, Ben and Gabs are coming together for the very first time to deliver a conversational podcast that speaks to culture, friendship, politics, entertainment and twenty-somethings everywhere! There are no boundaries and filters with these two when they talk about life, love, sex, relationships, current affairs and everything in between!
Two countries. Two friends. One very real podcast.

CAN WE TAKE A JOKE? | Distant Conversations #4
EPISODE #4
"WRINKLES?! Did you say wrinkles?!" Watch as Ben and Gabs navigate around the touchy (or not so touchy) topic of comedy. Gabs dumps on James Corden's American accent, and Ben stands up for female comedians. Also tell us: why can't a nose be 12 inches?

ALL THAT LOVE STUFF | Distant Conversations #3
EPISODE #3
How much of your soul should you invest into a Tinder bio? From Ben's obsession with saying the word "lust' to Gabs believing she will find "the one" when she's 16 (blame the USA); we enter into the secret (or not so secret) kingdom of dating and talk about the ins and outs of our experiences so far.

A WHOLE NEW WORLD | Distant Conversations #2
EPISODE #2
Is living abroad filled with fantastic points of view, with no one telling us no or where to go, or say we're only dreaming? For Ben and Gabs, moving to London was a adventuring into a dazzling place they never knew, filled with excitement, challenges and the start of many friendships (including this one!). Join us as we talk about navigating through this scarily huge city called London, Ben's soul-shaking encounter with the queen of rock & roll, and what Gabs things is the number one priority when selecting a new house.
