Hi guys, and welcome back to another episode of sex lies and dm slides with me saffron barker and me anastasia kingsnorth so it is thursday which means we are back for another bonus episode so in tuesday's episode we dove into the topic of relationship comparisons and whether it could ever be a good thing or a bad thing. But today we're talking about something a little bit more playful and trendy, which is Brat Summer. First of all- Okay, you do kind of need to explain because I've been seeing this, but I'm so confused. I think I really am just in my own world constantly. I think you would have seen it, but because you maybe don't know what it is you've not like looked at it and like yes took it in do you

know what I mean so yeah basically charlie xx has slayed it with her new album brat like when I listened to it for the first time every song my jaw was dropping it is so good like it is so so good is it like poppy no it's very like clubby vibes like quite it's like weirdly house yeah like weirdly like heavy beat drops in some of the songs i was like well i was not expecting that but like it's so good and i am obsessed with her i mean charlie xs has made a comeback i did not think i'd see that happening she is killing it and like the you must have seen the album cover it's just green like lime green it says brat in the middle babe i don't think i have oh my god literally like i've seen it everywhere people are making like callum's phone background he's is lime green with his name callum in the same brat font no yeah babe because i've been seeing everyone using like the brat filter on TikTok and being like, it's brat summer. Yeah.

And I was thinking, where has this come from? So I feel like Charlie Atex has obviously inspired this brat summer, but it's basically about embracing your like playful, rebellious sort of side. So kind of like hot girl summer, but just like a, I don't know, like, yeah, like a more playful, like cheekier version. I know you need to listen to the album like cheekier version i know you you need to listen to the album that's the first thing you've got to do after this just put it on and give it a listen okay and let me know what one of your songs which one god i actually am just in my own i just apparently stay in my own lane but that's a good thing though yeah but not really because my

job was kind of social media and i should probably keep up but yeah we are that is true I was actually messaging this um not even like in a flighty way basically there's this footballer and he knew my brother so he was just messaging me and I didn't realize he lives in Brighton okay and I wasn't messaging him like that or anything but he was like oh where are you from I'm like Brighton he's like same and I'm like no I had said to him where are you from then because I'm like how does he know my brother right and he's like oh Brighton And I'm like, no, I had said to him, where are you from then? Because I'm like, how does he know my brother, right? And he's like, oh, Brighton. I was like, oh my God, I didn't even know that, right? And he's like, yeah, you must be sleeping then.

I'm thinking, why would I know that you live in Brighton? I'm like, yeah, I guess I just say my own name. He's like, unless you have a man's. I'm like, I really don't know what you're on about. Like, I just didn't know you lived in Brighton. He's like, you have a man's I'm like I really don't know what you're on about like I just didn't know you lived in Brighton he's like must be under a rock I thought fucking hell your ego is so hot because he thinks that everyone never heard of you in my life before so he thinks that everyone knows who he is he thinks everyone knows who he is and I just thought and I had said

something to him about like I know I just obviously stay in my own lane whatever and he's like yeah obviously like like there's like basically he couldn't understand the fact that I wouldn't know who he was. Is he a big footballer? I mean like, yeah, but like he's a professional. I don't want to give it away who it is. He's a professional footballer,

a big footballer, but like, no, I had no idea who he was. Why did men? And I just thought, oh, honestly,

Anna, if you, if you've read these messages, cause I was so confused. I was like, he doesn't mean men and I just thought oh honestly Anna have you if you've read these messages because I was so confused I was like he doesn't mean like I like oh I just I honestly want to read them because I was just reading it and I was thinking to myself no he can't mean that because that means he has the biggest ego and then he'd follow it up and I think oh my god he does why he really thinks everyone knows who he is I mean I'm not going to say all footballers why do a lot of footballers have a big ego like that?

What is going on? Because, babe, every girl wants to be with him. It's so easy for them to get girls. I know, I know. Not me, though. I'd rather not. I'd rather avoid it. Well, same.

But I would be so embarrassed if I sent to someone that message like, oh, you're living under a rock then if you don't know who I am. I'm like, what the fuck? Honestly, it was, I was reading it, I was thinking, surely not. He's embracing Brat Summer, but turned it a little bit cocky. Not quite as playful. I think so. I think so.

So we're going to embrace it in the more playful way. But did you see, you must have seen this, Addison Rae featuring on the album when she did the scream. Addison Rae? Yes, babe. Addison Rae is on. No. She's on the album.

Addison Rae, she features on Von Dutch and she does this scream that had the gays and the girls gagged. How have you not seen this scream? Like, she just stands in the studio so the scream is literally her just screaming yeah and alison sorry charlie xx bought alison ray out a couple of months ago a couple of weeks ago on her tour and she came out and they did the scream together and literally everyone in the audience screaming yeah look, this is her in the studio doing it. Can I see it?

But when it's on the song, it sounds unbelievable. But that's all she did all she did and when i could like i'm honestly not joking with you you know how like people turn on tiktokers and some like they go through phases where they're like oh they're so like done now blah blah yeah that scream brought her back tenfold what like that one scream every the amount of tiktoks with like millions of like saying they are obsessed with allison ray because of this scream i'm not joking people are so strange that that's made people obsessed with her yeah i'm not honestly i'm not joking it's crazy that is actually what like that is wild i know i know how quick i will never understand how quickly people

just change their minds people switch up on people like that. And all she did was scream. And she's back.

kind of been doing that this year this year I feel like I'm just like don't get what anyone thinks of me and doing my own thing I've never felt like so and I don't mean selfish as in like I've been selfish towards people but I don't think I've ever put myself first so much and I'm loving life because of it. Thank God. She got on the Brat Summer before it was even a thing. I got on the Brat Summer before it was even a thing. I could have done that scream.

Yeah, unintentionally. Imagine. Imagine it was me. The way? Charlie XCX. The way I would scream. Charlie XCX featuring Safran Barker. And you just do that scream and you post it on your, I honestly.

But the thing is, I hope it was me. It wouldn't blow up i know people pick and choose but we can we actually we can't win and do you know what it would have been one popular person that would have been like i love dad's scream and everyone jumps on it like that is just how mad it is we can't win we could do that scream people be like oh that's so annoying i like that screen but it's her yeah that would actually be us that actually would be us but yeah so anyway but we're gonna channel our brat summer this year so okay i i'm gonna leave this one with you to think what are some like playful rebellious things that you think we could do on a date this summer that are very much on a date yeah if we were to go on a date this summer what's like a playful like rebellious thing that we could do on a date fuck that's a hard question on a date

oh my god go skinny dipping or is that too far no I think I think we could do that I thought that's where my mind went you know that was just something like if you rang me up when I went skinny dipping last night on a day it's the sort of thing that I could very easily see coming from your mouth that I'd be like oh cool babe yeah like you wouldn't question it if I said it I wouldn't even question if you did that I'd be like oh my god no way who is honestly I probably wouldn't question if you said that to me I'd be like no really but did you actually I'd be like how did you get to that point but like I don't think I'd like question it yeah so maybe skin yeah maybe skinny

dipping because I probably wouldn't do that in Manchester have nowhere to go skinny dipping unless I want to do that in the canal in which I'd probably get arrested so I'd have to do that on holiday um yes so that's maybe one for you have to do it in Italy again oh my god yeah we went skinny dipping once and it was probably you, me and Libby were talking about that the other night. That was probably one of the best nights. And the weirdest. And the weirdest I've ever had. It's a new day.

i don't know last year i was going a little bit too fast for my liking maybe last year i do think it was last year can't been two years ago if it wasn't that's terrifying i don't think it was actually summer i think it's before summer i think that's why yes oh yeah you're right it was it was because it was before the height of like august summer went in like June yeah I think so I think so okay have you ever done anything then that's like super rebellious or playful on a date before well babe I wasn't really much of a dater was I until not until this podcast happened not until the podcast happened I was I never dated people ever so I really don't think I've ever done anything like rebellious on a date. I would actually love to sit here and say that I have.

No, but you've, I think you've been rebellious in the fact of like, when we've been on holiday, you have gone on a couple of dates before abroad, which I personally think is quite like. I have, because I don't like them in the country, guys. Yeah. And I think that's actually quite rebellious like we're just like you know casually and i

be for you like i'm just gonna go for dinner with this guy have a drink like i think that's i think that's a real silly thing to do hmm yeah i guess i'd say that's your like rebellious yeah but it's not that rebellious is it no it's not that rebellious i think we've got to work on that this summer yeah but like what yeah okay what could you do though skinny dipping what else maybe what we need to do is like give each oh my god we sound like we're in unison but we need to give each other like something to do on a date because I don't date people I actually don't have any interest in a date anyone either I don't really at the moment either so I'm here doing this podcast but guys I can't think of anything worse than just speaking to guys right now.

I'm just in my very much own lane. I just, you know, doing my own thing, working on myself. Maybe we can do it when we're in Ibiza. We'll give each other something and little that we have to do.

Okay. To embrace our bright summer. I'm trying to think what yours could be we're gonna have to have a thing because we've tried to sit and think and my mind is waiting till we tell you the stories yeah we'll just come up we'll do an ibiza tell all on the podcast and then we'll tell you what we did with our brat summer um okay so overall then do you think like themed summers so like brat summer hot girl summer are useful or quite damaging uh I think honestly probably useful I think useful because I think it helps girls you know if you're

going through something and you've like gone through a breakup and you can just think no it's fine I'm gonna have a hot girl summer it's like get you in a good mindset very quickly the way I think it could be damaging is friends be like oh my god I thought you were gonna have hot girl summer like you know if a friend's in a relationship I've heard that so many times it's like well no you still have a hot girl summer I'd be hot yeah but I'm in a relationship like that's just but I've heard it negatively in that way too so I think it could actually be both a hundred percent I feel like it just gives people you know it's a good excuse for making memories if you are all single and you're gonna have this

crazy hot girl summer in that way then amazing but yeah like Saf said you can still have a hot girl summer and be in a relationship you just like everyone confuses hot girl summer with needing to sleep with loads of people have one night stands whatever that is not what it can be a hot girl summer but hot girl summer is just feeling the best version of you whether you're in a relationship or not so just use it and brat summer as an excuse to make lots of memories with your friends and just go and have the best summer completely so thank you so much for listening um be sure to check us out on socials and subscribe to the pod on spotify so you don't miss out on any future episodes and we will see you on tuesday for another one bye everyone see you guys then bye
