Em Rusciano knows how to be cool. She doesn't even had a pen licence and she writes with one anyway. Badass. The comedian and columnist joins Jamila Rizvi and Monique Bowley for this week's thought bubbles, like, should the Brownlow Red Carpet talk about more than the dresses? Can Julie Bishop take her boyfriend to work? How can you have better small talk conversations? And how much is too much to spend on scented candles?
