Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello, you've reached Leave a Message with me, Ali. And me, G. This is a podcast where we help the galleys in need. Whether you've put a he... I'm so hard to say. Whether you've put a hex on your ex. Or your fiancé wants a Chelsea-themed wedding. This is the podcast for you.
Starting point is 00:00:26 Right, disclaimer, guys, we're tired. And we told each other this year. We weren't going to say things like that. But I think it's extreme enough to just preface with the fact... The chat will be dry. That we're dry. It's like the Sahara between us. We got in the cab last night and thought,
Starting point is 00:00:40 I can't have a conversation. I had nothing left. Do you know what's so annoying though? My head is so busy. I've got so many things in my head that can't really, they haven't yet found their way out my mouth. We went for dinner and she just stands on the pavement like this. She goes, God, because so many things to say.
Starting point is 00:00:53 Said nothing. I thought brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. What's the top of your head at the moment then? Oh, many things. Oh, come on. Give us one. P.
Starting point is 00:01:02 Now, the things in my head are not for the pocket. You must have one thing in your head that's on the podcast. My wedding, I don't know. Yes. Like yesterday, I actually, sorry, I don't want this to just be like, you know, fucking wedding planning every week. But yesterday I sort of, you know, sat down, I suppose, for the first time and actually She wrote a list.
Starting point is 00:01:20 Yeah, I have a whole list. Oh, you're like getting ready for the wedding? Yeah. I do think I'm getting ready for the... Did you give me a plus one? No, I didn't give anyone plus one. I didn't give anyone plus one. But don't worry.
Starting point is 00:01:32 This is the thing. My mom's like, you've got to invite. all these people, 40 of these people won't say, won't come. So then, then we'll have to go for round two. It's a risky game though, Sheila. I'm not going to lie. No, no, it's not. It's, I can, I could guarantee. But you can't. That's the risk. What I want to say, that's what I'm saying, why don't people put RSVPs on the save the date? The RSVP only comes for the invitation. Yeah, that's stupid. Stupid. You should RSVP the save the day. If you think you're going to fly to my wedding destination, 18 months out, let me know 18 months out. The save the date, why don't you
Starting point is 00:02:03 have your RSI-HU-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-C-H-H-C-H-C-H-E-H-H-E-H-E-H-H-E-R-E-H-E-H-E-R-E. Also, even that is tricky, because you're picking a venue based on CAC-W-N-I-N-I-N-W-N-I-N-W-R-N-I-W. I know, I know it's not- like, surely, you have to have a rough-dh-R-R-R-W-W-N-W-W-W-W-W. Hope for the best, and then let the riff-Raff in, or not? Well, yeah, you have to assume that a quarter of the people you invite won't come and then you let the riffraff, yeah. But that's a risk, because you want a full venue, but you don't want to over subscribe in case anyone, everyone does come. I don't think everyone's going to come to your wedding until my third year. To both. I think.
Starting point is 00:02:47 A wedding, though, I don't understand because like it's so far in advance, unless you've got another wedding that weekend. This is why if you have it abroad, a lot of people just won't bother. I've been invited to abroad weddings where I know when I get the RSVP. the save the day, I will not go. Fair. But they've not asked me to RSVP. That's what I'm saying. I'm going to do the RSVP early doors.
Starting point is 00:03:07 I think so too. I think that makes a lot of sense. So you've got a big list basically. Basically, yeah. Fucking... Give me some jobs. What are you like hoarding over there? There's nothing to do.
Starting point is 00:03:19 Let me do something. I could definitely be in charge of something. Okay. Let me make your website. Oh, no, babe. And your camera. No, no. I was going to say.
Starting point is 00:03:29 say, just you wait till I need all the RSVPs, all the invitations. I'm not going to pay anyone. I'm going to do that. She's going to do that. I, guys, a secret skill! We were talking about the last week. What's wrong with me? I've got brilliant skill.
Starting point is 00:03:41 I'm Canvaverse. No, no. She's not Canvaverse. You've never met anyone that is a self-taught in anything. As two years on Canva. Ask her to do anything. The other day, I asked her to do, babe, how did you get a shiny? Well, what you do is you just do this and then you just do this and then you just, and then that goes to 25.
Starting point is 00:03:56 And then she's so quick. Everything. Yeah. Everything. If you need Photoshopped anything, she could do it. Fair play. If you need posters, invitation. Babe, you could start a wedding stationery company.
Starting point is 00:04:05 I actually could. Did you see my 30th I'm playing with at the moment? Yeah, saw that. Good. I haven't quite finished the design yet. Wait, let me see. Let me see it. What else do you need on there?
Starting point is 00:04:14 Well, exactly, I suppose nothing. But I might mix it up a bit change the color of the balloons. See, I wouldn't even know how to do that. I honestly wouldn't even know how to do that. She wouldn't know. She's not worse, like me. Let me see your designs. But that's why there's two of us.
Starting point is 00:04:25 That's why you've got to have different skills. Agree. I will do your wedding invites. I know. Do you think there'll be anyone that thinks that they should be invited but won't be? I think there could be more colour, like more. Yes. Oh, is that the final piece?
Starting point is 00:04:37 I haven't put any info on there yet. No, I saw save this. Yes. Oh my God. No location, no nothing. No, save the date. My socks match for my balloons. That's a fucking sleigh.
Starting point is 00:04:48 Okay. Who thought of that? Love. Simple. Are you going to send, how many people are you going to send this to? So this is what I was thinking. Will I send this to everyone? Save the date now and then I'll do all the details.
Starting point is 00:04:57 later. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe like a wedding. Yeah. Yes, I think so. I think you need to do an RSVP on here though. Fine.
Starting point is 00:05:05 At the bottom. RSVP to this email. That's not the save a date. That's just the invitation. No, it says save the date. Yes, but you've been talking about RSVPing on a save the date, but then it's just an invitation if it's not an RSVP. Because why can't you RSVP on a save the date?
Starting point is 00:05:19 Well, because the point is it's like, save a date is that not just a pencil? That's what I mean. You know what I mean? Oh, come on. We're penciling. Like it's all the same thing. But also you could say no to a pencil. Like there's many things that we get invited to that I think I won't even put that in pencil.
Starting point is 00:05:35 Yes. Do you know what I mean? And like the thing about a wedding I can't understand is basically why do a save the day? What is the point of the save the day? I guess so that people keep the day free. Why not just do the invite? Because you haven't got the details. I see.
Starting point is 00:05:49 But you've got the details, sis. I haven't. Right. So save the day. R-S-P-B save the day. R-SPP. Let's try it on my 30 if not your wedding. Good. Good.
Starting point is 00:05:56 That's a good trial. I'll do that this weekend. Shiff it at, ship it out. Yeah, good. And then we'll see how that goes down, how many RSVPs we get. Because maybe, as he's right, maybe people don't want to RSVP on the save of the date because they don't know the details.
Starting point is 00:06:10 Yeah, like, what if I'm busy in the morning? What if I'm RSVP? What if I'm RSVP? I'd RSVP for Chelsea Town Hall, but not in Crete. No, that's got to be two separate imitations. Really? Yeah. No, but I mean, like, if the wedding was UK, I might say yes. Oh, I see.
Starting point is 00:06:28 It's Greek Cypriot, I might say no, thank you. Right, okay, so good, that's a good point. Then I need to give some info. Maybe I'll just write abroad. You'll say, are you free? But it's a save the day. It's a save the weekend, I suppose. Save the weekend and then you'll say,
Starting point is 00:06:41 you will have to book flights and accommodation. Kiss, kiss, kiss. Basically, yeah, do you want to come? Maybe we need to colloquialize this invite sit. I agree. I find it really antiquated, I find it really like antiquated, the way that people do. I love that word.
Starting point is 00:06:55 I'm antiquated. The other thing that is antiquated. I tell you what is that. This is doing my head in. The number of bits of paper I have in my fucking house at the moment. All those wedding details from 500 different weddings. All these stupid little bits of slips of paper. Well, wait till I get abreast of Canva.
Starting point is 00:07:10 You're going to have many slips. No, I'm not going to have slips. I'm going to get slipping. Why do we send an A4? When did we send a pamphlet? Do you remember at the school? Prime school, when you used to make pamphlets. Yes.
Starting point is 00:07:19 Yes. Oh, folding that A4 sheet of paper into fucking six sides. Yes. All that in third, my ruler. You get it all on one sheet of paper. Let's do a pamphlet. Let's do a pamphlet. Like, with Jehovah's Witness.
Starting point is 00:07:31 I think even you could get rid of all of that. You just said, I saw this girl do this. You could do this. She sent basically one of these. Cute. On like proper paper with like the date and their name. And then on the back it was just a QR code. Love.
Starting point is 00:07:44 Everything's on the website. Because you do the QR code anyway. Sack all the written details. You just do the QR code. We need to do a photos shoot with you and we need to put that in. I take the pics. Babe. Book that in.
Starting point is 00:07:54 A fucking boy. I love him. Obviously, you know, him so much. Thanks so much for my ring war. I came home last night. He came home last night. I said, so bear in mind, we've been like kind of like our parents had been not, you know, asking what the plan is. I said, have you had any thoughts? He goes, yeah, Chelsea song. I was like, no, no, no, no, any actual thoughts. Thoughts about when, where, why. Come on. This is me. Blue confetti. That's him. That's all he's got. Anyway, I made him sit down last night with a
Starting point is 00:08:24 fucking laptop and I said, you, if we're going to do it, he said, you're going to be Bride Siller. I said, you are to be bad. I'm not going to be Bride Silla. I'm just going to be, you know. Type A, you claim to be type A. Get type A. I actually like to relinquish control of my type A.
Starting point is 00:08:42 What is it? I don't actually think you are that type A. No, no. So I mean, I don't want to be Taipei. Yeah, I think we've rebranded. Yeah. I think you're pretty big. You've been really good for me in that respect.
Starting point is 00:08:51 To lean into your type B? Yeah. So good over here. It's honestly Because the thing is You don't care About a lot of things As a type B
Starting point is 00:09:00 Because if you cared you'd do them You just don't care That's the thing And it's really good Babe Let's see a hinge Because what's happens No I've got some beef with you actually

Starting point is 00:10:02 I was thinking. Because he's all got football bits. I was thinking. You first ran on me as if you're, I don't know why I liked him. Were you thinking good head of hair? Because I did think that to be fair. Because he likes spontaneous plans.
Starting point is 00:10:12 You famously hate spontaneous plans. I famously do, yeah. I'm famously uns spontaneous. Why did I like him? Oh, God. I was having him. No, so she set me up to fail. She likes with this boy.

Join us in part two for your galley messages. Okay, galleys, welcome back. What should we call the galley's this week? What's the, what's in the song that we're loving? Shella. Shelly.
Starting point is 00:18:48 Read your fucking script. Is it me? I got it's great. Let's hear our first voice note. It was me. Hey, galleys. Absolutely love the pod. So I just wanted to leave you a message about my first ever clubbing experience. So my friend and I were in Croatia when we were 17 and we met these boys at bar one night and they said, oh, let's take you out for drinks. So the next night we meet them for drinks and we went to a club after. And this whole group of boys come up to us and start putting wristbands on us and we're like, what the hell is going on? This is really scary. And they're like, come with us, come with us. Turns out we were going to the VIP section. Sick. And a boy that put the wrist band on my wrist, I thought was really fit, like fit as boy had ever laid eyes on.
Starting point is 00:19:32 So I was getting all excited to my friend going, I can't believe he touched my wrist like that. And my friend went off with this other boy, who she really fancied. And the one that I had put the wrist van on my wrist, ends up leading me outside. And we slept together on the beach. It was on this, like, rough grass. So my knees and my back got absolutely shredded, covered in blood. and bruises. No.
Starting point is 00:20:00 And then the next morning, I wake up to about 50 snaps, like videos from this boy who had filmed the whole entire thing of me and him outside. And then on the final morning, we go to leave the hotel and the concierge come to collect our bags. And it was the two boys that we had got with were working in the hotel. Oh. It was so awesome. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed my first ever clubbing experience.
Starting point is 00:20:33 Oh, and we're going back to that same small town this year. So we'll probably see them again. Sorry, did he lose his job? What little creep. Why is he a creep for shagging a girl? He filmed her. Wait, is the guy that filmed the one also working in the hotel? I, well...
Starting point is 00:20:52 I didn't read it like that. I thought he was the one filming it. I thought she shied the concierge. Yeah, so there was two of them. Two boys. Two boys. That her friend then went and shagged. Yeah, but I think it was the one she was shagging filmed it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:06 But how would she not know he was filming it? Creepy, creep. I think someone else has filmed it. The other friend. Yeah. Either way, creep. Yeah, that is creep. That is creepy.
Starting point is 00:21:16 That's fucking weird. Yeah, that is fucking weird. You can't be doing that. Got me Snapchat filming someone's shagging on the beach. No, that's weird. That's bad. I'd get him sacked. I would get him sacked.
Starting point is 00:21:27 I would say. He's a voyeur. What is it? He's a peeping Tom, if you will. Yes. And he should have some repercussions for his creepy peepie behavior. That's not right. God, I love clubs in the European clubs.
Starting point is 00:21:44 I was going to say, I love the air car. I went to Havar at 17. And had a good time. It's a different world out there. Isn't it? It's like clubbing in Barcelona. It's heaven. The first couple of times you go to a club, you think I am free.
Starting point is 00:21:55 You do. You honestly think I can't believe I've been. caged all this time. That's why they called it freedom. I know. Because it is. Also, the only thing with like drinks in those clubs, they are like 40 euros and I always think, what the hell? I know. How are you charging that? That's why you got game with the boys. Wow. That's no good, is it? Do you want to know the worst story ever? Oh no. Maybe I shouldn't say this. She'll kill me. Oh no, who is it about? Okay, I have a friend. Let's call her Charlene. And Charlene and I went on holiday to Micanos.
Starting point is 00:22:31 Oh my God. With my family. We were on a family holiday, but we were at that age where we were just starting to go out and go clubbing. Yeah, we used to love doing that on the family holiday. It kind of made it all the much more sweeter. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:42 I'm allowed to go out now. And you're so cool because you're like hung over the next even though you're just with your family. Yeah, yeah, you're so cool. So we went out one night. God, this is terrible. We went out one night and I'm famously the biggest light where you will ever meet in your life.
Starting point is 00:22:56 Like genuinely wondering, and I'm like pissed. I had a picante at dinner last night. She stood up. She went, oh my gosh, I'm right back to my head. Oh dear. And I'd eaten a full meal as well. I know.
Starting point is 00:23:06 So we go out in Micanos, two of us, you know, whatever, having some drinks. And we, I knew someone. Oh, this is a really long story. I just, basically, I knew someone in Micanos who is Greek. You knew this boy who's Greek? Yeah. And he happened to be in Micanos. Coincidence?
Starting point is 00:23:27 Coincidence, he's Greek, so that's not, like, he would have spent the whole summer in Greece. Fine. Anyway, so we're texting, he's like, oh yeah, I'll come meet you guys. I, we're then, so the three of us are having drinks. I'm so drunk, there's a video of me, passed out on Charlene's lap. Oh, dear. I come round. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:23:45 Charlene is getting fingered. Oh, no. While my head is on her lap by this guy. It's not right, that was there. We were talking about this the other day. She was like, do you remember? And I was like, do you remember? think I trauma block that because that is something that I should never have seen.
Starting point is 00:24:00 Yeah. My head, I literally woke up and his hand was there and I'm like, oh my God. Why didn't you just shift me to one side? Honestly, an inch. Yeah. Would have been better. Holly tells this story all the time of when we were like, I don't even want to say how old we were.
Starting point is 00:24:16 Who knows? Young. Too young. Too young. To be doing antics like this. And she always says because we were like, it was a house party. We were all sleeping on the living room for. Holes and I, apparently she says
Starting point is 00:24:27 we're sharing a sleep bag, a sleeping bag, I beg to differ. I don't think we were sharing a sleeping bag because how would we? Unless it was like open. Anyway, she's like, we were sharing a sleeping bag and you were being fingered.
Starting point is 00:24:41 I don't think I was, but maybe I was. We used to do stuff like that all the time. Yeah, I've got many stories I won't share, but that, you know, I don't think that... We weren't bothered about the proximity. Nah. But one thing I do know is wrong
Starting point is 00:24:53 is filming without consent. Listen, I know that that is wrong and I'm not disputing that. I just know that a lot of people do that because they think it's funny. Not really, you know, out of herbing. There's more to just like, you know, rinse the boy. Well, isn't it awful as well because it would like absolutely depend on the video? I'd either like press charges or be like, can I have a copy of that? Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:25:13 Depends how good the sex was. Depends how good I looked. I have never seen any footage of myself that I've liked. Oh, I have. Ever. Like, genuinely. This is what I think... Babe, I've genuinely thought before,
Starting point is 00:25:27 I've got a career. I've got a career ahead of me. Shut up. Shut up. What position could you possibly have been in? Many. Face down on the floor. No defining features.
Starting point is 00:25:41 Like this is why I often think about sex. You know, I don't understand why it's sexy. If you really zoom out and you just look at yourself that there and you think, fuck me, this is animalistic shit. Well, this is the thing. Almost the best sex doesn't look good. No, I know. But I'm like, why does everyone think?
Starting point is 00:25:58 Like, this is all sexy. It's not very sexy. No, no, it's quite clunky. It is. And it's quite, you know, like, you know, guttural. Yeah. Like, yeah, it's, I do. What I'm saying is my days as a sex tape star are over.
Starting point is 00:26:16 Hey, why don't you do one for the wedding? I'm past my prime. No one's going to watch that. Are we going to, we're not putting it out live, I don't think. I think we're just doing it for raw. I don't think we're going to street. minute dinner. Fucking hell.
Starting point is 00:26:27 Course three. Hallie Mackin' Doggy. No babe. Right, yeah. Or we can do that thing, you know, that the girls do on TikTok where, yeah, all through the day, each brideman have a good interview. Oh yeah, that's really funny. And then we like, give it to him.
Starting point is 00:26:39 We should do something. Oh my God, guys, I forgot I did this. We could do this for the stag. When I, when Rua and I were at Bristol and Newcastle, we went through quite long periods of not seeing each other. So for his birthday, this is so bad. For his birthday one year, I took a roll of polaroids, 20 pictures, and I took them like really like graphic. Like, you know, up close.
Starting point is 00:27:05 Al is not afraid of a graphic nude. No, no. Her nudes are wild. Legs open. She leaves nothing up to the imagination. Al. She lays it all bare. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:16 Good. So I took these 20 pictures. Do you take them by yourself? No, I had some help. and I sent them with a case of Heineken to the boy's house for his birthday But the Heineken and the Polaroids arrived together Right So was open
Starting point is 00:27:37 No not was Oh no That'd be me done I'd never see what again And it was Did he just see the first one then shit himself No no babe He saw that he looked
Starting point is 00:27:48 What was your little pub I've been looking through them No because the first one I remember I was like oh no I'm and the first one The first one I was wearing lingerie. Oh, fine. Then the second one was like obviously full front.
Starting point is 00:27:59 Fucking funny. Four walls. And then at his 21st, we must have been, we would have done that when I was, just before rule was 21st. And then at his 21st, rule stood up there and like, did this speech and his parents were there.
Starting point is 00:28:12 And he was like, you know, Ali's Polaroids were so fucking good. And I thought, honestly someone just shoot me. No, shoot me in the head. No, he'd be in the head. Anyway, I'll do that for the stag. But I will address him specifically only to Roy.
Starting point is 00:28:22 Yes. Yeah. That can't be, you know, public domain. Also, I said to him, why don't you put one of those in your wallet? He was like, what? Walk around with your filthy picture. He's still got it, hasn't it? Somewhere in his, I think, in his childhood bedroom.
Starting point is 00:28:37 He does have those 20 Polaroid somewhere, yeah. Guys, we used to have to get, you know, cameras developed. You kids won't know about this. You used to have to look the man in the eye over the counter and nobody developed your face. Oh, no, that's bad. I also was in a long-distance relationship and had my fucking tips from Ali Mac.
Starting point is 00:28:55 he was always sending filthy pics. And I thought it'd be funny to do it in like a passport photo booth to like get naked in the passport photo booth. This is classic G is though. They were like this is. Because I thought like oh there's an element of like, you know, I did it in like public place. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:10 They like got, I only got my top off. It wasn't crazy. I wasn't like leg spreading in Paddington. Anyway, so I'm in Paddington. It was because I was on my way. I thought to do it before and I just like forgot. I was like classic type B. So I get to Paddington.
Starting point is 00:29:25 and I find the photo booth, I think brilliant. Top's off, I'm there like, there's like, like, kind of finding it funny, like not, like doing like half sexy, half not. But the rush is real because I'm like, God, I don't even open the curtain any time. It's crazy. Anyway, then I'm obviously, I do the picks, four picks, whatever. I stand outside, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, nothing comes, I think. I'm definitely taking them and it's all gone through it, paid, and it's all said ready to print.
Starting point is 00:29:52 Waiting, waiting, absolutely fucking. I think, I was going to miss my fucking train, going to fucking whales or wherever the fuck I'm going. I'm literally like, right, I've got two options here. Either I miss my train. I miss my train and these pictures come or I leave and I left. And I don't know whether those pictures ever came and who found them or didn't. Someone somewhere could sell a story. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:16 On Chief Forsyde read one day. Yeah. I bet you the camera operator's got those lots. Also, there was a face and there was a case. So that was that really And then I turned up with nothing Empty happened and I thought Well I had all best intentions
Starting point is 00:30:32 Too funny Anyway babe I'm actually kind of sorry that happened to you But also I think it is a really good An anecdote Exactly it is and sometimes we do do things And one day when you have the forecast You'll be able to tell that story Exactly and sometimes it is just for the plot
Starting point is 00:30:46 Okay now time for an email Double exclamation mark Triple Now time for an email! Dear Ali and G, I love watching you both. You always turn my day around when I see your videos and I listen to the podcast, but I'm in a bit of a dilemma and I need your opinion. Oh no.
Starting point is 00:31:04 I met a boy on Hinge, but it was my first time using the app and I wasn't completely comfortable using my own photos. So I used a friend instead. No, that's not real. Did you actually? That's bad. We actually got on really well that he asked my number. I gave it to him and I got so into talking to this boy over text that I completely forgot I was using my friends. pictures.
Starting point is 00:31:23 No! After about a week of texting every day, getting to know each other and even making plans, I realised I needed to come clean because I didn't want to keep lying anymore. So I explained everything to him, told him the truth and answered any questions he had. I felt so awful afterwards because I genuinely never meant for it to go that far. That was a few months ago. About a month ago, I still couldn't stop thinking about him, so I texted him out of the blue to apologise again.
Starting point is 00:31:45 He accepted the apology, but then said, this is creepy, leave me alone. I don't know why, but I can't get this boy out of my head and I don't know what. to do. Please help was I wrong to catfish? Wow. Yes, sister. I hate to break it to you. You were wrong. You were so wrong. You took a stop at Wrongsville and then you just kept going and got wronger and wronger. That is so bad. That's so bad. Listen, I... Also, sorry. Why would you want someone to match you based on how your friend looked? Because then you know the guy you're dating fancies your friend. That's stupid logic.
Starting point is 00:32:23 Sorry, sister. No, no, I agree. Retweet everything she's just said. Someone came to me via fancying you. I'd be like something's gone a bit wrong here. I was going to say, can I be honest? The only way this is acceptable if your friend is your identical twin. Fine.
Starting point is 00:32:39 Because then, Kate and Ashley. Do you know what I mean? Like, her mole, oh my God, her mole's gone missing. How strange, maybe she got it laid off. That's fine. Going in, you know, fancying an Asian girl is not the same as going on a date with a blonde, blue-eyed girl. It's not adding up. And every time I'm then in a room with Ali Mack,
Starting point is 00:32:57 I'm going to be like, you fancied her. Because you liked her on hinge. And you thought that I was her. Yeah, babe, listen. I think what we can only do here is take lessons. Good. And, you know, learn from our mistakes and not ever repeat them ever again. Also, let's do some soul searching.
Starting point is 00:33:16 Let's look in the mirror. Let's think, I'm beautiful as I am. I've got a lot to give. I've got a lot to offer. And, you know, I only want to be matched. with on Hinge for people who fancy me or like or feel interested by me or like my prompts, think I'm funny. Like, I don't need to hide behind my friend's picks. You've got to go out there as yourself, sister, and feel strong enough and brave enough to do that. Also, I don't want to,
Starting point is 00:33:39 you know, alarm me, but I do know that Hinge takes a strong stance on this shit. You don't want to get banned. No, you don't want to be getting banned. Also, do you know I go on loads of dates? And like, most of the time I don't really like believe what comes out of boys' mouths because I just think, I'd chat and shit. But a lot of boys I go on dates with do you say they've been I think it's easier because we've got all the tools but I think it's easier for we've got face tune yeah I think it's easier for girls to curate yeah and listen unless you're a boy who's using pictures taken by your ex then they're catfishing because they always have good pictures that they're ex too well also like listen it boys don't take good boys also write six foot
Starting point is 00:34:17 when they're five eleven five nine do you know I mean catfish like but I think there's a sliding scale here. Of catfishing. Yeah. And I think that you're at probably the worst end. I would say, sorry, this is a side note.
Starting point is 00:34:28 Catfish did. You used to be my favourite TV programme. Wait, did you ever watch that? Sweet Bobby. Yeah. And Don't fuck with cats. Yeah. Wait, was that another cat.
Starting point is 00:34:37 No, that was about the murder. Don't fuck with cats. There was another one that he was in a relationship. Tinder Swindler. Yes, Tinder Swindler. Very good. Izzy, thank you. Catfish was great, Tilly.
Starting point is 00:34:47 Where's MTV? Do MTV? Do you telly anymore? No. God, that's how. Hit my ride. Oh, I love. Welcome to my crib.
Starting point is 00:34:55 Welcome to my crib. Oh, so good. What the hell. Where's MTV? So good. They say tell he's dying. That's why. I know.
Starting point is 00:35:00 I know. Sorry, that's by the bye. No, babe, God love you. Let's not do that again. Listen, babe. Also, let him go. I agree. He's got to pay your Jews here.
Starting point is 00:35:11 You'll find another. You'll find another who really likes you for you. Amen. Okay. It's time for the galley gossip. It's time for the galley gossip. Gali Gossip. This Gali gossip is, you know,
Starting point is 00:35:25 where you can write in, DM, voice note, text, what's up? Back and forth, if you will. It's clues in the name. Gossip, okay? We're not doing hard-hitting stuff here. It's salacious. What a word. Thank you. I'm trying to broaden my vocabulary. We've had a DM from Holly with a very
Starting point is 00:35:43 big question for Ali. I'm ready. Ali, following your engagement, I wanted to ask, How did you know you wanted to get married? Not just to your boyfriend specifically, but in general. I've been with my boyfriend for nearly eight years from 16 to 24. Wow. Let that sink in.
Starting point is 00:36:03 And he's always been very set on not wanting to get married. His parents aren't married either, so I think that probably plays a part in it. The thing is, I'm not even sure if marriage is something I definitely want myself. But sometimes I can't help wondering whether he doesn't want to get married. married at all or just doesn't want to marry me. Dun, done, done. It's not a huge issue right now because we're still young and I'm still figuring out what I want to.
Starting point is 00:36:29 But I do worry that one day I might realise marriage is important to me and I don't want either of us to feel pressured or resentful down the line. Please help. That's a great question. It is. Because I think, oh wow, there's a lot to unpack here because I think... No, you could do a whole app on this. Yeah, I think there's a lot more to it than just like...
Starting point is 00:36:49 Well, I suppose. the bottom line is, I don't know that you will ever know the answer to that question because how can you know? He might not even know whether it's the thought of marriage, it's you, it's the time, it's the...
Starting point is 00:37:08 Like, do you know what I mean? Like, that's such a internal thing that is his, that I think the question actually is more about how do you feel about marriage in general and marrying him? And what's that answer to you? Because if it really matters to you,
Starting point is 00:37:29 then kind of doesn't matter his stance. Because if it matters enough that it's enough to not be with someone who doesn't want to get married, then that's your answer. If it matters a certain amount, and I'd love him to change his mind, but it actually doesn't matter to me. If it's a non-negotiable, basically.
Starting point is 00:37:43 Exactly. Then that is, yeah, definitely. That's on you, I think, because I don't think you can know the answer. Well, about whether you ever want to marry someone. No, or about what he feels. Like, does he just not want to get married or does he just not want to marry me?
Starting point is 00:37:58 I think this, I have for this conversation a lot about, with my mum, about people wanting kids. Yeah. And about how I think sometimes when men say, all women, but usually it is the man that says I don't want kids, I think women think, oh, but they'll get there. And you can't, it's the same in this situation, you can't assume that that that,
Starting point is 00:38:17 that's going to happen because if that's always been his stance and, you know, especially if his parents aren't married, then I think that if you basically need to figure out within yourself how important it is to you. And then you can decide whether that's a deal breaker or not. For me, that would be a deal breaker. I would really struggle if my partner said, I just don't want to, I've said this before, but like, I'm really pro-marriage, even from a legally protected standpoint, point if my partner turned around and said, but this is a thing as well, it's like, if you're all going to have a conversation about living a life together and raising children together, you could also argue that's basically being married. It's not a lot, but it's the same kind of,
Starting point is 00:39:00 buying a house together. Like, there are so many things that, I don't know, you can do and that you can, like, that constitute being with someone forever that aren't necessarily marrying someone. It just depends how much you care. And also, I guess, understanding his reasons for. That is a conversation you can have. Obviously you're young. But like at the same time like 20, like you, those conversations,
Starting point is 00:39:25 people go years without having them and actually you think you don't want to get to Christ time. Oh my God. I never have said what is it about marriage? Yeah. What is it that you don't want or like? Enlighten me. Because then it might help you to understand and understand your own view on it.
Starting point is 00:39:41 Because you don't want to just be swayed by him. You want to know what you want. I think the first thing for you to do is to figure out whether that's something that you want. It's weird because like you ask like, do I always want to? It's not something that when I was like, I guess I didn't not want to. No, I agree. I've never been like, I definitely don't want to get married. No. Then I guess by process of elimination, yeah, you always know you want to get married.
Starting point is 00:40:07 Like, you know, when I was 20, I thought I wanted, you know, six kids. Now I can't think of anything worse, right? I mean, like, all of those things can change when the reality of life actually hits you. Yeah, you just got to keep the conversation going, I think. Yeah. Good luck, babe. And yeah, do some inward reflection before you tackle that. Because if you decide, actually, maybe I don't really care. Great. Fine. But if you decide actually, really, I do care and he is, like, really never going to change his mind and that's a stance that he's never going to change. And that really matters to you,
Starting point is 00:40:40 you have to find a way to bridge the gap. Yes. Or not. Exactly. If you want to get involved in next week's galley gossip, send us a DM or Insta or drop us a comment on YouTube or Spotify to be featured. Okay, this is what we loved and did it love from this episode. Loved.

Starting point is 00:43:10 you've been caught catfishing. And they'd be like, I just, I just didn't think that he'd love me the way I looked. I loved it. It's fucking good telly. Wow. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:20 Loved Face Tune. No, babe. There's such a thing. That's not catfishing. That's looks maxing, I believe they call it. Yeah, but it's looks maxing as if you're doing it in real life, not if your AI looks maxing.
