Meshel then revealed the stolen laptops contained some of her recent work and she was worried it may not be recovered.
‘The laptop had four amazing episodes of my Can We Be Real? podcast which may never see the light of day because we didn’t get a bloody back up. There is a reward for anyone who returns the laptop.’
She concluded her sad message by telling fans that her holiday season was not turning out as she hoped.
‘To our wonderful audience please bear with us while we sort out WTF we are going to do to keep the podcast going over the coming weeks. Merry f**king Christmas!’
Many of Meshel’s followers were quick to offer her their words of support.
‘That’s f**ked! Don’t know if I can go without my weekly dose! Hope you guys recover it and all Matt’s stuff,’ one upset fan commiserated.
