Guys! We're back. Season 6. We are back together. We are back, baby. We are fucking back.
The duo is back together as one.
We're so excited. I'm feeling rusty, baby.
I think you've got off to a great start.
I'm just feeling good to be out of the house.
A bit of normality. Yeah.
You sound like a bit of a bit.
I honestly think I am
I think this is just the
the sound of freedom
freedom
oh guys it's good to be back
saying freedom by the way
when Jensen's literally
He's in the next room
but he is with his father
so that's fine
It's fine
Well anyway welcome back
With any few cards
If you're looking at YouTube
Fancy
Professionale
And we just hope you've missed us
Although you may have missed me
Well you've missed us on Spotify or main
Epps, but Zozo has still been continuing to graft hard
over on Patreonate with Zoe and Friends.
Not a single day after this, get over here.
So on Zoe and Friends, you had a guest every single week
in replacement of Mois. Would you like to tell everyone who it was?
Six in total. It started off with Carolyn from 1126
who did her lovely studio, a bit of personal shopping, personal styling on.
I loved that, by the way. It was really good.
Then I had Megan McGrory, who is a life coach, a bit of a personal development.
Love that. I've actually got a session with her soon, buzzing.
Have you? I genuinely listened to that, and I felt like,
I felt incredible afterwards.
No, I did.
Anyone's feeling a little bit down in the dumps
since that episode because, wow.
I was high as a kite.
Then I had the girls from Noya Design Studio
talking all the things interiors.
Then I had Jilly Isabella talking pop culture.
She really humbled me.
I know fuck-o.
I listened to that and I was like, wow, Zotty.
Come on.
But that is a good episode.
It was really funny.
I loved every second.
So good.
Then I had Bruce Donnelly talking all things.
Apprentice, life on TV.
Just a bit of chat, really.
Bit of bad.
You two used to be really good friends,
didn't you back in the old day?
Yep.
Then I finished off with Cassie, Cass G from Claude 1,
talking all things, radio, and then just a bit of a life chat.
She's an icon because you went to an event with her
whilst we were off for women in media, didn't you?
Yep.
Did the power talk.
Well done.
It was good.
I felt like I'd fucking left my left arm at home.
Well, she did right arm because you're going the right.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, I think you did a great job.
I heard you were amazing.
Right.
I thought what would be really cool is to start this episode because I appreciate that.
there may be some people dip in their toe into a lot on your plate you might be new
or you might have been a bit rusting you're just checking back in and you forgot who we are
so I thought we could just do a little recap about us in the pod just let's do like a little
two minute timer countdown noise go right my name's Jess
I'm Zoe and we've been friends for about seven years it must be longer than that
no I think I think we're going out of the eighth year apologies it absolutely is
I think we've been friends for about eight, nine years.
Yeah.
We met each other at Quiz Clothing, which is a company base here in Glasgow.
So we worked in the marketing team and I worked in the international department.
We became close on a work trip together in New York.
The bag of apple.
Yep.
And we've been in separable since, pretty much.
Love it.
There's about a six-year age gap between us.
Can you tell?
I'm from England.
I'm fair just at St. Glasgow.
And we basically, I said,
started my social media page just just food and Zoe was in marketing at the time she
I asked her to help me with a little bit of bits in terms of management so then Zoe then became
my manager so we then left her full-time job I feel like I'm speaking for you here okay I tell you
went on up so I'm Jessie's manager I also have a marketing agency would we say even though it's
only me Quinn management and now we've got the podcast together we've had a pod together for three
years. And it's coming up for third birth in July. That is. I can't believe it. Um, I can't believe
it. We've had a few different studios, but we're now here based out up next studios in Glasgow with
the lovely guys here, Murray, Alan and Graham. Yeah, our studio, we absolutely freaking love it. It feels
like cozy home. It does. You can watch us on YouTube and we're on Spotify, Apple, all the main
platforms. Yeah. And we also, two years ago, started Patreon, which is where our side dish episode
are, which are on a Friday.
So this episode's out on a Tuesday,
and we have extra episodes out every single Friday.
And they are now over on Patreon,
which is our member subscription platform.
We have an amazing community of girls on there.
There are true gorgeous fans.
And you could go over there and listen to these episodes,
ad-free, and there's lots of other extras,
like monthly competitions.
You have vlog-style content.
We have a group chat with everybody
can talk about lots of different things.
Like, it pops off all the time with recommendations.
and obviously you get the extra episode every week
which we love and we really dive into products of the week,
people's dilemmas,
it's a really good, fun place where we feel like we can relax a lot, lot more.
It's lovely.
You also get exclusive access to events over there before anyone else
and this season we're going to be bringing you a lot more discount codes,
offers, deals of places that we are maybe visiting working with,
so that would be good too.
Yeah.
Anyway, was that two minutes or a bit over?
Probably over.
Knowing me, right.
Zowie, what can we expect from season six?
From season six, we're going to have new guests.
Thanks skincare.
Thank air friars.
We hope.
That's quite a big hint.
Thank fashion.
Just about everything, really.
And if there's anyone you ever want on as well, please messages and see it.
Because we can see what we can do.
I think people lack with that.
We asked that last season, but we want to know what you want to listen to.
Absolutely.
It's for you.
belongs to you now
We're going to have more events
which we're starting planning soon
which is fun
Can I just say I think we're really good at them
I think we're really
fucking good at them
And the one that we've got coming up is
you lot have asked for this
and we're doing it
and it's going to be really good
And it's also quite soon
Yeah
July
By the way
Juj July
Yeah
keep it free
We're also
Maybe going into a bit
vlog style content
This season
because we bought a new camera
I see a new camera.
We've never had a camera
apart from the guys' cameras, obviously.
Zoe's wanted this camera for so long
and we've, was out of stock, wasn't it?
Out of stock, it's like the DJ Cosmo
or something it's called.
But we just thought for a monthly special
so it'd be much better to use a camera.
If we're going away places,
we can vlog it a bit,
put some more on Patreon,
maybe put some out to YouTube.
Yeah, we could do get me.
We'll see how it goes.
We'll see how we feel being vloggers.
But last month on Patreon,
Zoe did a whole vlog in Paris
with her trip with Jason
and we also did a vlog
spend a day with us when we had a few meetings
that was about four or five weeks ago
and that was four weeks ago
so we did the whole day and you guys
seem to love that so we definitely
will do a lot more of those things when we are together
for sure we're also starting
a really exciting monthly newsletter
which sounds boring as fuck when you say it like that
but it's going to be
like cool of email
it's going to be a roundup
delete
it'll be cute don't worry
No, it's going to be cute
And only one for month
Chaos
The chaos is back
No, don't go out of it
Right, I'll keep talking
Monthly newsletter, right
It's going to be cute, it's going to be gorgeous
You're going to love it
It's going to be full of items we've spoken about
And recommended clothing links, beauty links
Restaurant
Yeah, anywhere we've been
We can do the Instagram handles
yeah just you know because the DMs on um we obviously both have our own
Instagrams and businesses and that to sort so when we're replying to you guys you're
like oh can you link me that we feel bad because we can't get back to everybody so yeah
I think if it's a roundup newsletter you'll have everything in one email absolutely
that's a really cool idea and obviously anyone do that before no me neither not podcast
wise anyway no I think it's just trying to keep it easy for you guys to refer back to
things we've discussed and like products would recommend you and
things because we obviously say it on here and as soon as you've listened as soon as we listen
we forget to yeah like what episode did they say that i'm not i've got to i know exactly so that'll
hopefully help with that and let you guys kind of shop our looks more and visit places we've been
and blah blah blah you guys it really really help us if you could support us whenever you listen
to the podcast so please share with your friends please share on instagram or whatever you
what platform you use tell a friend send to your WhatsApp friends group chats and just try and
spread the word far and wide and
yeah it would really help us grow this podcast
even bigger and we can offer bigger and better things
absolutely
so things that have happened since we've been gone
you go for it because I feel like I've been in a dungeon
hole
you probably still know more than me
she didn't mean that jensen I hope you didn't hear that there son
right
TikTok was banned and unbanded in less than 24 hours
in the US bizarre
tension seeking top shop returns
wow
Is it a store? Is it a website?
I think it's a website.
Unsure?
I'm sure.
It's been about 45 plane crashes and I'm terrified.
Why?
Unsure if anyone's got the answer, please hit me up.
The rise of supermarket fashion.
We need to talk about this.
We're going to talk a bit more about fashion trends and stuff more in each episode as well
because you guys always ask, well, what outfits we're wearing.
But also, it's quite cool to see what's out and about.
Absolutely.
Because trends are constantly changing.
But, yeah.
Interesting.
Love it.
Jamie Lang's Ultramarathon that actually turned a nation into greeters.
Yeah.
I was obsessed with that.
Yeah, you see, I wasn't, but...
Loved it.
But cute.
Tommy and Molly are back together?
Well, we saw that happening anyway.
We knew it was happening.
Coachella, Influenced her Olympics, are happening right now.
Some of the outfits I'm saying are tragic.
He can be arced.
Terrible.
And last bit, absolutely not least.
Not a massive thing whatsoever.
But you had a win.
I had a kid.
You've brought a human into that.
this world. Yeah. It's been quite something. So tell us how's it been. What you've been up to?
I'm a mother. I'm a whole mother. Let's everyone give a congratulations to Jess. Yay.
So guys, I had a little boy and his name is Jensen River. Jensen River Tate. He is eight weeks
old today, tomorrow. Sorry. And it's been absolutely amazing. And if you've been on this crazy
journey with me, you'd never would have thought those words would have come out my mouth. But
I'm here for all the positive vibes around motherhood honestly I just think it is the most challenging
thing I've ever done the birth was challenging pregnancy everything you've been along the journey
with me but it really is amazing it's magical you're smashing it yeah I mean I don't know if I am
smashing it I just feel like it comes to you naturally and that's one thing I said I shared on
the pod was that I was really worried about what I know what to do will I be good enough and you do
you just know yeah I think anyway I'm just
doing the best that I can.
Well, he's having a bloody great time, so...
Yeah, well, he's not.
That's another whole thing.
No, but it is healthy and happy.
He's just having...
Yeah.
Issues. Is it called issues?
But I have shared a little bit about it on my Instagram,
but if you are new and just listen to it on the pod,
Jensen does have reflux and tongue tie.
And because I had an emergency section,
something that I've really been...
Being quite aware to now is
there's a lot of issues with babies that are emergency
section it seems to be quite a similar thing and he has a really like amazing head control
should we just say i thought he was going to be in a fucking burpee when he was coming out of me i was
like wow that kid's strong sex after his dad was like fucking yes son come on and then i thought
actually no this isn't normal so yeah he's seeing an osteopath and yeah he there was a lot of
tension because i had a very long labor however i don't want to go i actually would love to go into it a lot
on here, but I'm going to do my whole birth story at home in front of the camera in my
safe space because it's a very intimate and long, it was a very long labour. And I just think
I'll feel more comfortable speaking about it at home with a cup of tea with Jensen, Richard can maybe
pop on camera and I'll do that and I'll post that on Patreon. I did promise that for the Patreon
Piggy's as well. But yeah, I think if you go over there, I'll post it and I can be as long as I want
and yeah
love it
it was absolutely incredible
and I had Lindsay from
hypnabirthing
my hypniburthing teacher Lindsay
as my doler
it was a last minute thing
Richard treated us to that
and it was honestly
amazing experience
and you did feel that was really worth it
didn't you having her there
I have nothing to compare it to
but it was
wonderful
like amazing
I was on a high for two weeks after
and I think now
and I suppose a lot of moms will be able to relate
when there's a newborn thing, the high goes
like reality kicks in that
this baby ain't going back
and he's here to stay by the way
and it's intense
especially when they cry a lot
and I'm having a lot of issues
I had a bit of issues with my health visitor
and I was back and forth with the paediatrician
lots of things trying to get this resolved
and we're slowly seeing light at the end of the tunnel
But for a good, I'd say between six and seven weeks, which was a week and a half ago, I was really emotional.
Like, it really got to me.
And I thought I was being so strong and everything was being amazing.
Then I thought, actually, no, something isn't right.
And it's relentless.
I'm tired.
But, guys, you just get through it.
But what I mean by saying you're smashing as well, yeah, you have issues along the way.
But so all everyone, right?
Yeah.
But also, you're out and about.
You're still living life.
up, you're dressed, you're ready.
Things can be a lot worse.
I'm shocked myself at that, you know,
because you see a lot online
where people say I don't leave.
Exactly, that's what I mean.
I've got people message me saying,
how do you have the confidence to go out?
And I don't have the answers.
I just, he is happier out the house.
I don't know if he's racist,
but I really struggle staying in the house.
He just is, I feel like I'm feeding, sleeping,
crying, feeding, sleeping, crying.
It's like a continuous three thing.
All day, it drives me and saying,
I get him in the pram,
he's fast asleep straight away.
In the car, asleep.
And also when you're out and about even if he has still a wee bit unsettled like you're kind of distracted by maybe being with a group of people or eating a meal in a nice restaurant or just even out a walk around town or whatever. Yeah. Whereas as you said, in the house and he's unsettled. It's like you're stuck in your wee box. Exactly. It probably drives you a bit mental as well. Yeah, definitely. And we, me and Richard are spending every Thursday together on his day off now and Sunday. And we're making it our mission to go through all of my Glasgow hit list. Love it. All the place I want to eat. And we've really ticked off so far.
fucking many guys.
I can't wait to share it with you
because I've eaten in some incredible places
but a few people have said to me
can you share
pram friendly places?
I don't even look into that.
I just book and I write in the notes
can I have a table please suitable for a pram
and everywhere I've been
everyone's been so accommodating
the table's being big enough
to fit a pram
I just crack on with it
I just go.
That's probably why people struggle
because they're overthinking
will there be enough space
will have access to a changing room
all that but see if you didn't you'd make it work
car parking where do you park
I don't know just drive them
we do kind of just bunk the cars up though I think
whereas people are stressful drivers
I just pop the car anywhere I can't
I just park it in a space
I don't get it
sorry if I'm being insensitive but people
do overthink and then I think especially
when you bring a child in it's like
well what if I need this and they've not got it
or what if I can't park that close
I need to carry them in exactly
just be organised
yeah
If you're organised and smashing it,
trust me, you can do it again.
Get your way in it, you can handle it.
Yeah, so I do think I'm doing all right.
But like I say, we can talk about this.
We've got the whole seasons, I can talk about you.
What's been a lot on my plate,
and I'm sure there's going to be something different every single week.
But so far, I'm really loving it.
I don't know what I was worried about.
Is he world's cute as baby? I think maybe.
I think maybe.
But I'm a biased.
No, I told you straight away when you sent the first picture,
he was a cute baby.
I would have told you if he wasn't.
Yeah.
I honestly think he's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
And anyone who speaks to me, obviously the first thing they say is how's Jess?
Yeah.
Which is a bit rude, but whatever.
And then they'll say he is the most gorgeous baby boy and I'm like...
Don't they?
Yes.
And then I'm like, are you just saying that?
No.
I do think he's perfect.
No, he is perfect.
Don't we all just think that about our children now?
I don't know because I don't have one.
But I do think if I had an ugly child, I would say they were ugly.
No, you would never!
I think I was
Messages if you think your child is up me
With picture by the baby
We'll let you know if they are or not
Yeah let's do it
Let's do it
Yeah so
To round that up
I'm really enjoying motherhood
Richard is smashing being a dad
He's being extremely supportive to me
And that's probably one thing I should say
I have a guy that is
allowing me to have an hour a day
for me
And that has been game changing
He takes him for all
walk and in that time I can shower I can brush my teeth I can make myself breakfast and just get
my shit together take a deep breath yeah and I know that it's hard for us because we don't have that
family support around but what I say hard it's not been because we've got each other and I think when
you both put the work in we can you know we have our times where we say some awful things
that too much just tell me that you're in a fallout yeah we are in a fallout right now at two three
two three in the morning we say some awful things of course
It's like because you're tired.
It doesn't count no.
No.
And this morning he had a little bit of around
because he came in and said to me
that hadn't made the bed
and I'm like,
because I'm looking.
Yeah.
So he needs to come,
listen,
he's come to me to work with me
for the first day
and he's looking after
gentsen out there
and working on his laptop.
That's what we're going to have to do.
Absolutely.
We're just going to have to do
what works for us in our situation.
I mean,
I'll help any time
but I just don't have the boobah
unfortunately.
I mean,
I've got a,
I love it too.
boobs but nothing can put them.
Dust.
You can give it, I mean, it's tried.
He did try, you're like,
you can give it a go, but you won't be satisfied, unfortunately.
By the way, breastfeeding is a whole other situation.
It's quite intense, and I really hold my hands up to anyone that does it,
but I'm really giving it a good bash.
Oh, absolutely, you're giving it a great bash.
Yeah, I never, something I never, ever thought I would do either.
And it's spent from two weeks to two months, and yeah, I'm exclusively breastfeeding.
I'm pumping though
Is that classes exclusively? I don't know
but it takes a bottle, great
and yeah so far that I have no intention to stop
and hopefully the tongue tie sorts
it and we'll have got past this
hard hurdle but we've had our challenges
so yeah any girl these out there or mothers
that are attempting to breastfeed or doing it
you're doing amazing
that's after you
you're doing amazing regardless
I saw a TikTok the other day actually
I don't know if I sent to you I meant to
and it was something about breastfeeding
it was like basically you run like five marathons
a year or some
the equivalent of.
Calories make me skinny.
Honestly.
I thought
these women don't get spoken
about enough.
Because
because you feel like
you can't do anything
especially if your baby
doesn't take a bottle
I could imagine that being
really tough.
Yeah.
They actually refuse to take it.
Because they're used to the nap.
And if you're not confident
feeding in public
that could be another thing
that's a whole other thing
isn't it?
And why is there something
that's the most natural thing
in the world
mostly
the hardest?
because...
It doesn't come easy to women at all.
The public thing is because people have sexualised boobs obviously.
Yeah.
So then it's like weird to get a boob out.
But even like some babies don't latch on properly, you can't get enough milk.
There's lots of things, lots of factors about it, but yeah, it's a lot more difficult than I thought it would be.
So, we'll go into the more of that over on Patreon though, definitely.
Anything else you've been up to you'd like to tell us about?
Yeah, so I would like to talk a little bit about some of the restaurants that I've been to
because they're definitely worth shouting about.
Oxen Finch is back open.
This is for the Glasgow Guernies, by the way.
But if you are from anywhere else, you need to come to Glasgow because the food scene is out of this world.
Ox and Finch is back open after a great refurb.
I went the other day.
Oh, has it been all refurb?
Did I know that?
So it's been shut since Margo and Seb's opened.
Right, okay, I didn't realise that.
The chefs went over there, set that up.
Right, fair.
Ox and Finch had a nice revamp.
They've got outside seating now.
which is a sun trap
I've never been there by the way
what
I've never been
to Ox and Finch
can you believe it
because you can't ever get a reservation
it's impossible sometimes
must go
lunch reservation though
gorgeous
really nice
I had this
spinach
it's like a pesto
yucky
with goat cheese and pistaches
it was outstanding
that sounds perfect
yeah it was really
really good
we had the steak
the chips
it was amazing
and then also
went to a place
called Caesar Social, where you were invited, but you pied me off the last minute.
I was on cookie, don't you?
Yeah, he wasn't too well.
She was blessed her.
She did the chefs.
Which is very similar to like Errol's Pizza, if you've ever been there, the best pizza in Glasgow.
But it's a really cool spot on the South Side.
Bring your own booze.
Really cool thin-cross pizzas.
Big Caesar salads.
Really good value for money.
And they also sell that La Gelatessa ice cream on the dessert menu, which is another iconic place in Southside.
then outlier
yes am I saying that right
because the girl he's took the piss out of me last time for saying that wrong
I think I would say outlier
but I think that's wrong
outlier
anyway I'm one of my favourite
brunch spots in Glasgow for
really good coffee and just
good baked goods
very interesting brunch combinations
if anyone just likes their own tattie scorn and square sausage by the way
it's maybe a bit too edgy for you
yeah it is it is edgy hipster vibes
but I love that shit
and they have an hour and evening menu
which somebody told me it's really good value for money
again bring your own booze
so I walked in took Jensen
and my friend came along as well and Richard
music was pumping
I got a reservation 15 minutes
before I got there at quarter to eight
because people don't know about
you're doing evening dinner by the way
the music was absolutely pumping
it was like I beef the house music
it was so cool I was like well
candle lit just cool edgy shit
Richard went across the road
and got like a beers and wine shit
but what I will say is the menu changes every single month
it was very chefy
I believe the chefs have come from Brett
right okay
and even me looking at the menu
I was like oh
what has any of this
that and there's probably one thing that I'll eat on here
right
however I just went for it and it was all very delicious
but quite small portions again very chefy
but if that's your thing and your real foodie you're going to love it
and I'm sure that the menu changes every single month
Richard had the lamb and he said it was excellent.
Right, two more to tell you.
Haylin Canteen, another brunch place that I've wanted to go to for ages
and I'm so few in it myself that I hadn't been before.
It's at the very top of Dunbaran Road.
It is, without a doubt, the best brunch menu I have seen,
sorry, the most interesting brunch menu that I've seen in a long time.
The guy lived in Melbourne and you know the Aussies take brunch very seriously.
And the stuff on there was amazing.
You'd have loved it, Zoe.
Honestly, you would have loved it.
Is that the place it's shutting?
Yes. I can't believe it.
And they do these things called cheese on new potatoes.
But yeah, they announced that evening that he was closing after so many years.
And I don't know why, but I did see a post from him yesterday saying he's trying to work things out.
There's going to be investors.
Something's happened, I think, on a maybe personal level.
Can we get involved or what?
Yeah, can you keep it alive?
If you keep getting like this, honestly, I think they will.
And I messaged him saying, I'm absolutely devastated to hear this.
Like, that was amazing.
And he's like, I'm trying to see what I can do.
But I think something has happened.
Maybe it's been a partnership and, yeah, I don't know.
Business things.
Another really good place to go for a nice lunch is Gloriosa.
I went there for their new spring menu.
They do 20% off Tuesdays and Wednesdays evenings.
I went in the lunchtime so I didn't get that offer, but gorgeous, spring, light, salad vibes.
Nice to sit in the sun in Finiston.
And then I also went to Lobo again in Southside.
One of the best, there is, honestly, such an unsung hero.
Did we go there for a drink one time?
No, we went to Luna.
which was round the corner.
So that's all my top places that I've eaten
in the past few weeks
and I'll share a lot more of that on JJF
but I wanted you guys to hear it first.
That was guys slash girlies,
Gailies.
Love it.
Gailies.
Hello, Gailies.
Hello, Gailies.
Right, Zoe.
I was saying this to Jess before we came on, right?
There's something about asking someone
what they've been up to for them to tell you
that they've had a wayne.
And then somebody asking the question back
and having a wee list of things that they've been up to.
I mean, it's quite insignificant in this life.
However, I'll tell you anyway.
You all want to know. Because I need to play my part in the episode.
Do you know what I mean?
So I'd much rather hear your chat than mine, honestly.
Well, something that I did was, I get a wee tattoo in my arm, right?
And I don't know if anyone's noticed it.
It was quite impulsive, obviously, that's just...
I don't think I know this.
I don't think I spoke to you about this tattoo.
I can only apologise.
Quite impulsive...
I thought it was a G.
It's a nine, right?
This is what I was going to say.
If anybody wants to tell me that's a six.
or a nine, not a six or a G, it's a fucking nine, okay?
Right.
It's a nine and it's my lucky number.
It's never brought any luck to me, but hopefully one day it will.
Okay, get a new tattoo.
Oh, that's cute.
I think, try to be edgy, maybe, I'm not sure.
I think it's cute.
I went to Paris with Jason.
Again?
Full vlog on Patreon.
Yeah.
That's the second time we've been.
Loved it so much.
Now ring on your finger?
No, no, ring guys.
I asked Jason if he was proposing and he said we don't get along enough.
So I was like, all right, okay.
I'll just go back in my box then
Honestly
We did put a lock on the bridge
though for the second time
So I feel like it's just the same
Is that still there?
I thought that had to be taken down
because it was too heavy
I think they maybe just replenish
every so often
But nothing will annoy me more
than not been able to find it now
Like see if it's still on there
How do you know where it is
Because you can't mind where you put it
Anyway you can see it
and we get up to on Patreon
But with a gorgeous time
I just love Paris so much
And something that's really important
For me to say here is
I'm not a Disney
adult, okay?
There's Disney adults that go
to the airport with their hats and ears on
and they have like Disney tops. They've got matching Disney
tops, they've got backpacks, they spend
five days at Disneyland Paris. Why are you saying this?
Is somebody called you a Disney adult? A few people replied to me saying I did
not have you down for a Disneyland adult and I thought
whoa, whoa, whoa. I thought people love Disneyland.
I love Disneyland. I mean I haven't been since I was a kid though, but
if you can't go to Disneyland for one day
and have a good time, then you're just boring.
You don't need to be a Disneyland
adult to enjoy it okay isn't there like adult shit there like rides and that right I just honestly
I know that I'm quite what's the word not very let's say magical right you know Disney and all that
and my fields that see walking through there when you can hear all the music and all that's fucking
gorgeous nostalgia I think you need to be able to enjoy that in you from your childhood yeah I agree
and yeah I put yours in my head one of the most excited things I can't wait for is when
Jensen's like 2-3
and I can actually sit and re-watch all the Disney
films with him
I can't wait
Is this a good time to tell you don't need a child to do that
because I do that at least once a week
But I mean it's a good excuse to have it on the television
All the time
It's a good reason to do it
And not think, is it weird that I'm watching this
At 28 years of age?
Exactly that.
For the 10th time
Exactly that.
Anyway, so I'm not a Disney adult
No one's stress out about that
I just can have a good time
I think that's fair enough
But the rides did make me feel sick
Anyway
Quinn management is a rebrand
gorgeous so cool
try my best to be visible
be a boss bitch
I think it's just hard when you
have a few different pages
like your own pages podcast
and then your business
to remember and do stuff in the mall
I agree it's hard to then cross them all over as well
I feel like with the pages
that podcast and my page
my three pages
even my personal
like which one do I'll post on
because it's all very similar cross over
and I think with businesses
I love seeing a bit of like
the owner or the store
staff's life so I want to do that but then it's like you feel like you've
spoke about it on here or you've already to post it on your personal and then you're
trying to put it in your business and you're like there's empty care or if
everyone's seen it so we're trying to be better at Quinn management so that's for
this year okay I've been busy doing Zoe and friends yeah much we spoke about I went
to a house of gods event another night we haven't discussed this that's the
first time I've been in that hotel right never been in Edinburgh one either
Even the rooftop?
Never been in the rooftop.
No, nothing.
Not even blinked to it, right?
So I went to the opening a year ago and you went to the one year birthday.
Yeah.
And it was a really good night, but is it weird there?
Do you know what I mean?
A bit seedy.
Yeah, but like kind of like it.
Yeah, but that's the whole point now.
I know.
But basically, well, we went in and everyone was just down in the reception for a while,
getting some drinks and there was a photo boot and blah, blah, blah.
And then went up to the roof.
top and they had
drag queens
doing performance
because they used to have
Casablanca and Edinburgh
next to it
which was the
drag queen place
it's the
group of them
that did it
in there
okay
so they were
doing some
performing
love
yeah
but the way
that me and my
friend Krista
was as if
we were like
the judges
of the stage
so that was really
petrifying
because I thought
of someone
no they were just
like in the middle
of a kind of
can I dance
for a vibe
but we were
right there
I thought if
if someone
pulls me up
I will die
that was fine
Like you were in a hotel room with a DJ, Benz?
Yeah, so they had that going on up on the rooftop, right?
DJ and all that with the drag queens.
Then, which by the way, they can fucking move.
In those stilettos.
I know. Some bodies on them as well.
Slay.
Good on them.
Then there was a random room on one of the floors that Bems, a DJ was in.
Gorgeous, love him so much.
It was absolutely popping off in there.
It was like boiler room vibes.
Wow.
It was fucking roasting as well.
Was a lot of people in there?
Not loads, but I think it's because it was too warm.
Like it was so warm.
And that was just in a bedroom.
So I think it must be like a kind of bigger.
So it was like every single room just opened just for people just to debbing and out of.
There was just, there was also guests in the rooms by the way, like who were staying there who had nothing to do with this.
They just had dedicated a few different rooms to different parts of the event.
We then had in another room on another floor a singer Ben Walker who was lying on a bed.
Wee's shirt and trousers on all smartwe's guitar just singing away.
acoustic.
Amazing.
I mean,
Chris,
I just sat at the edge of the bed
and listened to him
for a bit.
My glass of champagne.
It was so
well thought out.
Yeah.
Mike who owns
House of God's
out is so good
like
with stuff like that
though.
Yeah, it was
because I was
a bit like
what's this going to be like
and I wondered
who would be there
and if I would know
anyone.
Did you know
anyone?
Our old manager
Becky was there
she was chatting to her.
Oh she?
I knew a couple
of people but it
wasn't like
influencers
yeah he's not like that at all
it's more like industry
yeah like artsy
yeah I felt extremely uncool
I was just kicking about like
and the toilets
they are the best in there
the music the trippiest thing I've ever
and love it
witness for the mirrors and the doors
and you're like that there's a music really pumping loud
yeah the music was pumping loud in then as well
he wanted it to be a bit like high toilet
I loved it and do you know what
I don't know if I would have stayed there before
only because I thought all the rooms
were really small, dark, no windows.
They are in Edinburgh.
Right.
But the ones that I went into
with the music and all that was happening,
big massive windows never in there,
so I would definitely stay.
I would stay there, yeah.
The Edinburgh one, I stayed a couple of times.
Basically, I stayed first in lockdown
when they do that, was it,
fuck me like I'm famous or something packaged,
something like that.
And it was amazing because at the time
when you couldn't do anything,
you could stay there
and they would bring you the cocktails to the room
and it just felt like a really good experience
you haven't done something like that for ages.
But I could imagine now I wouldn't enjoy that
because I'd want to get out and about in Edinburgh.
Yeah.
But, yeah, the rooftop was gorgeous.
I haven't heard good things about the food there.
I didn't know they did food, but apparently they did food and roofed up.
Well, there was no food kicking about, so I couldn't tell you.
Oh, was there not?
No.
Unless I missed it.
They did say there was a big massive table with loads of birter cake on it, but I also missed that.
Oh, I saw pictures of that, actually.
Rachel.
Yeah, really cool.
Last year they had LF Sand.
system is it um oh you see it's pain in front of passion
and a look in your eye yeah yeah they were DJ in um really cool
loved it love it and honestly I feel like that's really all I've been up to
sounds like fun I got a new car I was what I'd say I just saw that out there it's Gorge
that's nice it's so nice by the way loll at your number plate it says MUA makeup artist
I've actually got a plate that I think I'll put on purely because I don't want people
think of my makeup artist
Guys, what's your thoughts on private plates?
Can we hear them?
Do you know, I think this is where Scottish and English people differ again.
Okay.
Because I think up here, I could be so wrong, by the way,
and I'd just be so uncool.
But I think up here it's quite common to get a private plate.
Like all my friends got them for like 18th birthdays and all that for their cars.
And that's what I got.
I got one as well.
But you think it's weird.
No.
I don't.
A group chat did though.
but...
Yeah, that's true, actually.
No, I don't think it's weird.
That's a max bag.
Richard wouldn't be seen dead with a private plate on his car.
But I would, but it would have to, it wouldn't have to, I want to say something like
Jess Ted's.
I'd have to be something like J-N-T-7, something like that.
I don't know, my initials and some numbers.
Yeah.
I'm not sure about, but mine said Ted's, like T-55-D-D-S-S-S-S.
right okay
it's giving boy racer
I ended up getting my own car
because me and Jason shared
for a couple years
well since we moved into the flat
three years ago
because when I was at work still
I got the train every day
so I need a car
and you live right next to the train station
exactly
and we shared
and it was all going fine
but it's more just like
there was only ever the odd
inconvenience
and for a while it was like
is it worth getting a second car
not really so let's just keep it going
but his offices are moving
I'm out about a lot more
even just like coming here
so that we can
if we need to come separate
or I can drive us or whatever
just better
so I got my own car
so I'm free
It's gorgeous
Absolutely love it
Right so I thought I would speak a little bit
quickly about my top 10
items that I found most useful
being a mother
Go for it
Because we remember you said to me
It'd be good to revisit
What you actually use from your baby shower
and I also think this is quite cool
if you're listening
and you've got a friend
that's having a baby shower
or you're not sure what's a gift
I thought that would be quite cool
because I wouldn't have had a Scooby-Doo
before I had a baby
and also
there's so much out there
that you buy everything
but you might not use
everything you might
yeah and you can always refer back
to this if the time ever
comes where you need to
yourself
if anyone's watching by the way
and you're seeing me drink
this smoothie Jessica one as well
I'm obsessed with this
chai berry boost smoothie thing
from juicy
I love it so much
I would have it every single day.
It's really nice.
Really good.
Great shout.
I think I should first
to give a little shout out
to Sister Method
who, I know you guys
know how much I love them
and I'd love to get them
on the pod by the way one time.
Definitely.
They came and helped
reorganize my nursery
and just give my whole house
a complete revamp and gut
as they do once a year.
So yeah, they were amazing
and just helped setting up
and visualising where things go
because one of them is a mom
and one of them is going to be a mom.
So she has had.
had a nursery, she knows where you're going to want something in a drawer and what's
useful. At the time, I was so overwhelmed, I didn't know what the hell I was doing.
Oh, so you've only got so much brain capacity, I think, in situations like that.
And when you're so massively pregnant as well and you're nesting, you need help. You want
to do that whole gut your bedroom and everything, but...
You're no getting up ladders where you shouldn't be.
No, but they were amazing help for me. And I actually did lay on the bed for a lot of the time
speaking to Katie with a pregnancy pillow in between my legs, just chatting away, asking her every
question of the sun. But yeah, and I was just going, Chuck, Keith,
truck, keep.
Perfect.
Yeah, it was amazing.
And my nursery, you might have seen that.
It's beautiful, isn't it?
That's gorgeous.
I have love there.
Yeah.
Really good.
I can't recommend Gary from, I think it's JSJ joinery who did all my panel in and my alcove
thing.
Really gorge.
Right.
Number one, zip sleep suits.
Right.
Yeah.
Much more practical.
Without a doubt.
They've got a zip that come up the way to change the nap in the night when you're neckered
and just take it off.
Nothing you want to do is pop-poppers at 3 a.m.
You're doing them up wrong at 3am.
God, trust me.
Yeah, and then he's getting irritated because I don't get wrong.
Can't be asked.
Now, this is obviously how they sleep.
And one thing that I was confused about is what do you put them to bed in?
How many layers do you put them on?
And a good guy and somebody said to me is one more layer than what you would.
Okay, that's good.
Especially if you take them out of the house as well.
But he loves to be swaddled.
So a swaddle blanket
Or you can have swaddle suits
Or you can have the sleep bags
That star thing is the best thing I've seen
Yeah he doesn't like that though
The yellow thing
Oh yeah
Love that Star Blanket
Crumbling something
I'll link it in our newsletter
But it's really good
But a swaddle blanket
He loves to be like
Arms by his side
I feel like in the night
When he's fidgeting around
He's scratching his face
And that's when he wakes himself up
So when he's like a mummy
He sleeps very a lot longer
I notice
Dummies
Mammies
another question I was like
how long's too soon to introduce a dummy
but I did it on think day like seven
and he only has the mam dummies
and apparently the best from like orthodontist
point of view for their teeth
when they get older
isn't it if you have it for too long
and if you suck your thumb it makes your teeth stick out the way
because you're like
I think so bending them
yeah
number five
number four if you are expressing
or you've got a baby with reflux
I really like the doctor brown bottles
you've got like a green suction thing in the middle
where it's like helps the air
flow and good if you
express. I'm using the Modella pump
by the way. It's okay. It's really
good but it's not hands free enough
but it's definitely the best but
getting the milk out of me.
Sucking it. Yeah. Now this one's
a luxury essential but I fucking
love it. It's the binning
Bambah sheepskin liner.
Oh yes. You put it in the pram but he has it
in his over his docketar in his
snooze pod. He will not go anywhere
in his bassinet without lying
on this fur.
And it's self-regulating fact because it's real sheepskin.
It's bourgeois for Foxton.
Yeah.
It's amazing.
I really, really recommend it.
He loves it.
Number six, an angel care bath.
So what you put them in in the bath.
It's like 20 quid.
I bathed them on my own, by the way,
just to let everyone know and he had a great time.
He did love it.
And you have put the muslin in the water and pop it over them
so it keeps them nice and warm.
He likes the bath.
He loves the bath.
He loves the bath.
That's why he stayed inside me so he would become a Pisces,
little fish, not an Aquarius.
and also by the way I did actually get into my
the water guys
I had five hours of a water bath you like
not a water birth you know what I mean
I got a birth experience it yeah and it was
the best five hours of my life and I say to so I can't listen to David Gray
without cry my eyes out again
that's a shame because we're going to see him are we going to see him aren't we
yeah what date?
Beth of me wow
grow egg room thermometer
and a bath thermometer
you got one in your baby box
nappies
such a hilarious chat
but listen everyone will tell you
to get the Audi ones
and little ones and all that
and they are good
but I'm sorry
but pamppers are the best
you're a pamper's fan
yeah I am
they don't leak
they are better
they fit better
they fit better
around the sides
I know they're expensive
and I do actually really
love the little ones
it's the one with a little animal
on the front
if anyone's a mum
but
pamper's
pisses myself off
nappy cream
I love the Waleida
nappy cream
It's got an ingredient in it begins with C.
I've tried them all, guys.
You know what I'm like?
I bought every fucking one.
He got Naffir Ash for two days.
I lost my shit.
I couldn't believe it.
I was like, oh my God.
I'm a terrible mother.
What do I do?
Put this one on.
It's got an, I can't remember what the ingredients is called,
but it's a yellow and white tube,
and it is the best clear up overnight.
Overnight.
We don't need to stick him.
Nope.
No.
No.
He got baby acne on like week two or three.
And again, I'll listen to TikTok and all the flipping water,
my cellar water and all that.
that shit that they put on it.
I didn't do any of that
and it cleared up within like two weeks.
So just leave it if your baby gets acne.
I'll put your breast milk on it apparently.
And last but not least,
a white noise machine with a red light.
I like the you and the sheep one
or the loomy one that you got me
that hangs on the pram.
He loves to be shushed.
So like the shushing noises.
And I would say
if you're buying someone for like a baby shower,
you also got me the rocket
that you've attached to the pram.
It's basically a rocker
because of pram when you're not around.
I think that's a really good gift
that you can get someone.
I really love that.
I use that a lot.
Richard likes that as well.
And that's it really.
I bought myself a wet, white warmer,
which was really essential
because he screamed his tits off
when he has a cold bum.
But yeah,
that's what I just thought
to say that actually
because they're my top
favorite things
that I think I can't live without at the moment.
Obviously, of course,
from the pram and the cot and my tits,
but...
Well, the essentials with these are wee things
that you can dip in and out.
Yeah, and you can bive.
I definitely,
would buy people
zip sleep suits
I got you some nice ones from Asda by the way
they were my favourite but they're too small
for him now and they were his favourite ones
to buy me the size up yeah what size
I get newborn? You got me
up to one month which was amazing at the time
because everything was too big. Right so we're on the next right
that's knotted. I think he's got big feet
I think you've got quite big feet
yeah I'm size six
for your height well I don't know
for your height maybe six and a half
actually I think I'm a seven now
They say your feet grow in pregnancy.
Are they a seven?
Yeah.
But they don't look that big, whereas that's a four.
I'm definitely a seven in points.
Oh, right.
You know, because the toes are wide.
The fills.
The fills are filling.
I've not worth anything but a point heel in a long time.
If I got my toes out, I think I would freak out.
Never. Couldn't do it.
I love a point.
Right, so if you watch anything nice on TV?
Nice.
I don't know if I would say nice.
but I watched that adolescence that everyone was talking about.
Same.
That had a deep meaning.
It did.
Which I didn't really pick up on.
No, you didn't.
You were like, so did he do it or not?
The problem is, right, was something like that.
See if you look at it from the wrong angle.
Yeah.
See, because if you've watched it, you know what I mean,
if you've not, sorry, a spoiler.
But at one point when they brought the other boy into it,
I then was looking at a who done it vibe.
Right.
When he said that you gave him the knife.
Yeah, so then I was a bit.
That's kind of what I was waiting on.
Okay.
Was a twist that actually he didn't do it.
Right.
Whereas actually it was all about why he done it, not who done it.
Yeah, it's a very big deep meaning.
Misogyny.
Misogyny.
There was a lot of deep meaning about it.
And you know what?
As a mother now, with a son, I definitely did watch that a bit differently.
At the end, I was really crying.
Yeah, I wasn't overly moved, but I think I was just looking at the wrong angle.
And I'm not in the position.
It was when Stephen, is it Stephen?
Graham when he was crying on the bed and hugging his pillow saying like sorry son like as if he'd
failed him and yeah but that's the thing with the internet we just we won't be able to manage
what everyone consumes when we're not around and you think that you're teaching your children
all the best morals and values in life and you can do all that so you're blue in the face
but they can go away and scroll something for 20 seconds and consume something that is quite
terrifying and some that will make them do something or see something make them believe something
It's a bit of a court of men, isn't it, that believe that women, is it got the 80-20
where they believe that 20, 80% of women are not attracted to 100% of men?
I don't know, that doesn't make sense.
It's something like only a big percentage of women finds a small percentage of men.
Sorry, 80% of women are attracted to 20% of men.
That's it.
And they blame, they blame women that they don't, they don't, they don't.
they basically haven't had a shag.
That is basically it.
Yeah.
They think women are the devil
because you're the one
that's making them feel emasculated
and they hate you for it
and then they take revenge
and they have this call online
that we are the issue.
Yeah.
Because of how things have changed over time
where women are getting more independence
and there's just a lot more,
you know, everything's different
in the workplace.
Well, it's just people that believe
that the olden days are still what it should be.
We should just be at home.
Cleaning and cooking.
Yeah.
With nothing.
to our name like no money no assets
or nothing in the men should have all that
that's people still exist like that
obviously so that's what's all about it's morning when he asked me
why the bed wasn't made get yourself to fuck
mate
no keep it in
hope he is
I mean I did like it I would recommend
watching it do you know the
how it was filmed
well we probably like that
yeah is that what it's called
a wanna
very cool
I wonder how they do that Marie
what do you mean by that
so there was never
any scenes it was the camera just followed
continuously they never was a cut
it was one shot what if they made a mistake
shut up
what's that the whole thing again
from the start of the program
but sorry that's why that scene with the therapist
with the boy and the woman
which can I say was one of the best bits
of acting ever did you know that's his first time
he's ever acting in front of big cameras before
so I've seen a lot about this right
and then I also seen other people say
signed by a big age and saying all that he has acted before.
Yeah, but he's never acted on...
Yeah, on TV.
Yeah.
But I think that took like three takes to do that.
Sorry, they shot it three times
and they picked the one that was the best.
Annie, you know,
do you mean that all four episodes
were shot in the one time?
No, so they shot one episode at a time.
And a on a oner.
Number two, and a oneer.
Right, okay.
Yeah, of course.
People do it on a stage show, yeah.
That's crazy, isn't it?
imagine if you fucked up your lines
I've got the giggles so I'm awful
the pressure would get to
no
but I want to know Marie just quickly
you know when they
when the camera moves
and somebody then it's the next scene
do they go like three to one now walk
wow
they spent something like five days
in rehearsals for each episode
and then they had to go for it and do it
got it
okay so at least they rehearse it
two or three takes a day
from one day at most
And if you may have to move down,
have you done that kind of work before?
No.
Scary?
Oh, yeah.
Hard.
Okay, fine.
Hard.
Right, next one, why notice?
That's the weirdest fucking program to ever exist.
It's meant to be weird, though.
It's all psychological,
and it's honestly about watching every single character
and working out all of their issues, basically.
Have you finished season?
Yeah.
Three was that?
Yeah.
Me too.
Spoiler in our incoming.
I just, the three women, the friends.
I found that quite fascinating.
Me too, but I was kind of like,
it doesn't really go.
Like some of the relationships don't go anywhere.
So like we've just experienced something
and then they're just all happy at the end again
and I'm like, what?
Yeah.
Do you know what I mean?
Absolutely.
That is very much like women in their 50s
going back together after living a life
where each one has a different life path,
One's successful, one's had a failed marriage
and one's just a bit of a,
I'm just happy, just people pleasing everybody.
And then they have their barony because,
and then one's jealous over the other,
lies, deceit.
And it all turns to come down to the fact that actually
they love each other, they're friends for life
and they're jealous.
One of them is jealous of them.
I don't know.
It was a lot of deep meaning to it.
Matthew.
I found the brother, Wankingoff,
the brother, the most disturbing scene of TV history.
for me. Why did that happen?
Why did that need to happen? Why?
The writer's fucked up for that.
That's sick.
What I need to know is like who's in charge
I mean I could find that in the credits right
but who's in charge of the music of all these seasons
because it's the best part about it.
But the music and all three of them is different.
Is it?
But it's like more it's to the country they're in.
Right?
But it's all the same sort of.
vibe like just those noises
but that really
makes you think a certain way
it does maybe it does
maybe it does something to your brain
it does kind of like hypnotising you into like
what they want you to think and feel in this episode
it's funny because Richard doesn't like all that stuff
but even he was like
I'm addicted to that white lotus I want to watch it
is this intriguing
but at the end it wasn't really like a
well it was a big thing at the end
but you didn't finish the episode like whoa
That's what I mean, though.
It's so much happens
and there's so much, like, character detail going on
that you're waiting for how they all connect and all that,
but I didn't know what happens.
No, you're right.
Well, they connects a little bit.
A wee bit.
The dad of the...
Who was your favourite character?
Because I think they purpose to make them all unlikable.
But I really liked Chelsea.
I felt she was really daft.
She's in sex education.
I liked her.
Who goes up with the old guy?
Yeah.
I liked her, but I also liked.
the mum of the family.
That accent.
Because she was so fucking weird.
She was weird.
And why was she so just like
staring at them all smiling all the time?
She didn't really bring anything.
No, she didn't.
But she was funny.
Sorry, but how about her husband being
Malfoy's dad from Harry Potter?
I wouldn't know that.
Long white hair?
I don't like Harry Potter.
You know who that is though?
Yeah, but I wouldn't.
I couldn't even picture the face right now.
His.
With the wig.
The last of us started again yesterday, Monday.
You didn't watch that, did you?
No.
Does that like zombies or something?
Yes.
Yes, it is zombies.
Clickers.
The ones where I said that my Yorkshire put in looks like I come here.
Honestly, a brilliant TV show.
As she's watched that, do you think?
Yeah, I think you'd like season one.
But I think it's one of those things, though, where like everything, a bit like Lost.
Do you remember Lost?
Yeah.
Where it's really fun and cool at the first episodes
where it's a bit more simple.
And then things get a bit dark
and there's loads of like gangs get introed and introd.
What?
Gangs come in to play and it's a bit like, who the fuck are they?
What are it called?
What's the fireflies?
I'm like, what?
I know that's the whole point of it, but there's.
Is there a lot of episodes, a lot of seasons?
Just one season so far.
But season two has come out.
Right, okay.
Handmaid's Tales back.
I fucking love the handmade sale.
That and Stranger Things are joint top season of all time for me.
Yeah, I can't believe you like strange things.
Me neither.
Handmaid's Tale or Game of Thrones is up there.
What?
You believe it, I know.
Then flying friends in, do you know what I mean?
Like now.
Do you know what else I was watching as well just while we're on television subject?
Is it 1843 or something like that?
Yellowstone's first bit.
God knows what the date is.
I've not watched Yellowstone either.
Rich has got it on the TV and I'm, you know,
when I'm just like looking up and watching it.
I was never like that with Yellowstone,
but this one I quite like it.
I'm quite on board.
Because, you know, Atlas from The Last of Us, he's in it.
And he's so gorgeous.
Oh, is he?
He's gorgeous.
Right.
Let's just round this off with products.
Right, products, we talk about a lot on Patreon.
I know you guys ask is our skincare, recommendations, makeup, everything, hair.
We talk a lot of it over there,
but we are going to speak a bit more of it in the main
because we know that's what you want to hear.
and last season I said
I'm not going to buy anything until everything's empty
I'm just going to stop you before you reach for that bagger
and we'll get in it
okay I won't get it
we're not showing in terms they will do that next week
all right then perfect okay fine
just a few mentions
okay fine
god damn it
shaking there's two full bags here but they can wait
that one's my makeup bag
but basically
there's a few
I've bought a fair few things since this baby's coming out of me
I'm like, I want to have my glow up.
Those are things that I couldn't use in pregnancy.
Yeah.
There's things that I can't.
Well, not necessarily can't use.
My skin was just so good in pregnancy, which is a positive,
that I kept it quite simple.
I just used two things.
Yeah.
That's a dewy skin cream and La Roche Posee cleanser.
That was it pretty much.
And when he's out now, I'm like, right, I'm going to start using retinal again,
all that, blah, blah, blah.
Fair enough.
And I am using a breastfeeding safe retinal, which I didn't know existed, but it does.
Oh, God, I'd never thought of that.
It does.
There is one that is.
And I'll share it with you next week.
It's quite pricey.
So, and there's a couple of things that we've tried that we don't rate.
Can't believe it.
So, should we talk about this on this episode or next week?
We'll save it for next week.
Okay, juicy cliffhanger.
Right.
I've got lots of things that you're going to love.
Some budget, some splage,
and then some things that we definitely don't think you need to splurge on
from our point of view.
Our opinion.
Our opinion.
Which is correct.
Are you going to tell us any today?
Oh, you told me not to?
Keeping it all for next week.
You told me? I can't.
Okay, fine, let's do it.
Next week then.
Tees.
Will we end with some nice listeners?
Messies.
Yeah.
And send us in your dilemmas.
We love doing that.
Again, we do that a lot on Patreon,
but we'll dive into big, juicy dilemmas in the main as well.
We love the dilemmas.
we actually do
they're my favourite episodes
me too
I'm sorry if you can hear me
slap through the microphone
we'll just need
a wee protein fix you know
yeah
right we've got a few here
that are just nice
feel good to end the episode
and we love to hear it okay
finally wrapping up
my healing journey
from my breakup
that was nearly a year ago
fucking love it's this
you go girl
you go girl
also see if I'm through a breakup
fuck it taking a year
like that
that's long
yeah long isn't it
another one
I'm getting married this week
what the actual fuck
Can you imagine
I know it's not really our thing
so maybe not
but can you imagine
planning a wedding
for all that time
and then actually coming
like it ever actually been there
I suppose it's similar to birth
isn't it?
You wait for a big moment
and it's just over
and it's like big high
but then baby blues
and the wedding blues
their thing.
Yeah a lot of people
get wedding blues on the night
sorry we're really putting
a dampener on this
congratulations
I'll be a great time
Fuck off, sorry.
Me and my boyfriend had our offer accepted for our first home together.
Congratulations.
Congratulations.
Wait until you find out who has to do all the washing.
I'm joking.
Honestly, there's really a lot of pros and cons to have in life, right?
You enjoy yourself.
Welcome back to all the positivity and all the great minds.
Welcome back to a lot on your fucking plates.
Right.
Are you going to say some else now?
Yeah, I'm going to have to say one more thing because there's a few more things in here,
but just one more little thing.
There's a trend that I love on TikTok, which I think will be really good for next week.
You've seen it where someone just taking a video of themselves and it says,
I'm bored.
Tell me the one unhinged thing that you did.
Surprisingly, I've seen that.
Wow, well done.
now there's things where they're saying things like
what is the one skincare product that's change your life
don't give me the things that are trending
give me the one thing that no one knows about
what is the one makeup product you can't live without
I love those sort of videos
because the comments are brilliant
because you get new ideas, new tips, whatever
so I want to know
what is the one thing
that you have tried last year
or this year, sorry should I say
that you are loving so much
that we need to know about and you want to tell our listeners
and then we can talk about that
when we talk about all our products.
Love it.
Yeah.
And it can be anything from...
It can be anything.
Makeup, cleaning, clothes.
Yeah, I'd say on that sort of like product.
Yeah.
But like items, I mean like...
Maybe more like products, not necessarily food.
No, but I mean like a food, like a spatula.
Love it.
Like a good device.
Love it.
Salad Chopper.
That is a good one.
It's a really good one.
Don't have one.
Anyway, yeah, please do that.
Fashion next week as well whilst we're on it.
Okay, perfect.
Because apparently blondes can't wear butty yellow.
Apparently they can.
Apparently they can.
No, I'm not sure if I do see.
Even though I tried one on and I looked awful.
Yeah, same actually.
We'll talk about more than that next week.
But thanks for joining us our first episode back of season sex.
Nice long one for you there.
Is that over an hour there?
Sla-bed-there-lis.
