We deserve a nice glass of something.

Poffit vibe? It is a little bit.

Yeah, so I can actually...
I've outstretched and not looked at the bottom.
Vanilla, chocolate and cherries is what I do taste.
Flipping hell.
Have I got it right?
Jammy and vibrant with notes of juicy red berries, vanilla and chocolate.
Sorry, guys.
This...
Oh, my God.
What would you have said?
God, you're honestly a bit of a god at this.
Honestly, I...
To be fair, I would have said really like chocolatey as well, yeah.
It's very smooth.
That is divine.
That will literally sort out your head.
I'm going to take that home with me after this.
Oh, you do.
Have that whole bottle to myself.
What are you doing?
I'm going to have a dinner with Ruby.
We've got a big debrief.
Do you want to come with?
Well, I meant to be going to this round-trip, but I'm going to decide later.
Oh, yeah.
If you don't come, have a nice little...
We're going to have a cosy meal.
Either a takeaway or a...
Are you going to do it at yours.
That's what we're talking about.
Sorry. Sorry.
We're having a bit of a chat. Right.
Anyway, we can talk about that. We've got to get into some
some real
serious stuff. Fast
fasting stuff.
I obviously, as
you guys know, don't know where I
was for all of those years but didn't realise that
Rachel Wilson and Adam Brody
dated as in Seth and Summer
dated in real life
so then I listened to the podcast having
known that piece of snippet of information
and fuck me
it changed the whole perspective
I haven't listened to it so talk us through it
are they still in love?
no Adam's not.
Or, no, he's just not.
But Rachel is.
Like, oh, God, I don't know, I don't know.
He warms up towards the end.
So I feel like he's being respectful of Leighton.
Probably, and also, Rachel's maybe a bit nervous.
No, he's not nervous.
He's so confident.
Oh, really?
He's apparently done the like he was firstly like
did the best
have all of them
when he like
changed OC
he was the main character
which is true
yeah he was to be fair
and which you don't
really look at it like that
it's because I think
it was meant to be
the other one
I don't even know
what his bloody name is
right but he was just
yeah but he just
wasn't a good character
I was not connected
to him whatsoever
he grossed me out
more than anything
I was so invested same I was so invested ined me out more than anything. I was so invested.
Same!
Yeah.
I was so invested in Seth the whole way through.
And then I think the storyline, as it went on, developed and changed for him to be the main character.
Yeah.
So, he also, like, had a lot of say going into it.
And he's obviously gone into producing now.
Like, he's just sort of quite...
Well done.
He's, like, killed the game, basically.
And Rachel definitely was very much very much like wanting to reminisce
and crack in some jokes okay he wasn't really firing them back was being very respectful
kind of taking it kind of seriously in a way quite annoying though she felt a bit uncomfortable
she was nervous like she oh my god i need to listen to everyone said that because obviously
they film it everyone said she never wears makeup for the episode. She had a full face of makeup on. No way.
Yep.
Okay, so on top of that.
Oh my god, that is death.
She was trying to like reminisce about like their dogs and whatever, like going back into
their rooms.
No, that's not good.
You shouldn't do that.
Just like in a jokey way.
No, it's almost weird if she didn't.
It's like they went out for all those years.
Like, fair enough.
You're on the podcast.
We're both around.
We've got kids.
Wait, so she was saying like, oh, when we used to have our dogs.
No, like she'd be like, oh, you know you okay fine or she said a story about
how like she was like oh we got josh the producer stripper do you remember and then he tried to get
you on i was like absolutely fucking not and and as in because obviously she'd been the girlfriend
and he just blew it off he was like moving on like he didn't he wasn't he was like oh my god listen to
this yeah then he warms up towards the end but there's definitely like i feel like oh i don't
know there was to be fair maybe that just means that she's more over it because she's so fine
talking about it whereas he's saying whereas he's standoffish because it's obviously a sensitive
or like i imagine leighton's just a bit like can you not yeah it's almost just a bit embarrassing
but i kind of think i don't think the boy her husband would give a fuck, but I feel like if a girl would be like, can you not embarrass me?
And also, I bet that, like, social media, Leighton gets it a lot and, like, sent so much shit.
Oh, my God, like, Katie Bieber and...
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
One of those, one of those, one of those.
I bet that all the fans want them to be together still.
I kind of do, but what can you do?
Same.
Anyway, we move.
Move.
Oh, guys.
Also, we've got some other news, don we move oh guys also we've got some other news
don't we we've got some other news
Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello

anywho they're broken up I'm not oh they did a public statement saying that they remain they're
gonna remain best friends but like we all know that we all know that's an absolutely
situation going on there because who makes best friends okay apparently
there was a dude
that came on this
morning
show
Jonah Falcon
has a 13.5
inch penis
claiming to have
the biggest penis
in the world
sorry can we
just measure that
right now
okay I've got a
ruler in front of me
how many inches
is this bad boy
probably like
six
okay it's double
it's more than
double that.
Okay, I'll tell you something, actually.
Oh, no.
I went to Amsterdam.
You thought I was really going in for a treat then,
for a juicy story, but it's not.
I went to Amsterdam, and we watched a sex show,
which was the sketchiest thing I've ever done.
Like, honestly, there was a guy behind us
taking, like, LSD tripping out.
It was so weird.
I thought it'd be, like, quite glamorous
and, like, you sit in, like, a theatre. Right, like, burlesque vibes. Yeah, I thought you'd like that. It was so weird. I thought it'd be like quite glamorous and like you sit in like a theatre.
Right, like burlesque vibes. Yeah, I thought it'd be like that.
It's fucking not, they're literally shaggy. Shaggy but like they're so un- enjoying it so little.
Oh god. He had an enormous penis. His knob, knob, was so big. I mean, it could've been 13 inches.
But show that hip. She's flipping inside.
And I was, all I kept thinking was that poor girl.
The girth.
The girth.
No, there's nothing worse than a really girth.
Yeah, but that girl, I was looking at her and I just thought.
Were you like, I feel for you right now.
I'm so sorry you're having to go through this.
She might have been really enjoying herself.
She wasn't.
Her face was literally like, this is the sixth time it's happened today.
So this guy, did he whip?
I wonder if he obviously didn't whip his cock out on this morning.
Guys, we've got to have a quick look.
We actually, we're going to put this in the Instagram.
Yeah, because we all need to see this.
We're going to do some digging.
13.5 inch cock.
Inch.
Sorry, why am I saying cock?
Inch cock.
What do you call it?
Penis.
Penis.
Inch cock this morning.
Stunning.
Let's have a look.
I would, what would you do if, what would you do if a penis came
and it was 13.5 inches?
I would just run away.
Run for fucking hell.
I would go,
this is not going to work.
Oh, I would run for the hell.
I actually have said that
to a boy once.
Oh, stupid.
He's got his dick out
and I went,
that's not gonna work.
That's not gonna fit.
I genuinely did.
Right, we've gotta have a look.
We've gotta have a look at it.
Okay, right, here we go.
Oh, it's, I can't see, oh, Christ, you can see it like a hard on, oh my God, okay,, we've got to have a look. We've got to have a look at it. Okay, right, there we go. Oh, it's...
I can't see...
Oh, Christ!
You can see it, like, a hard on...
Oh, my God.
Okay, well, we'll have to...
No, no!
Oh, my God.
We'll have to...
Fascinating stuff.
Fascinating.
Fascinating stuff.
Anyway.
Okay, we don't need to talk about
That's our bit of news.
Oh, and also, obviously,
Paris Hilton got married,
which I'm very happy about
because I love Sweetie.
Loves it.
You know, that's what she says.
Sometimes I hear her in interviews
and I'm like, seriously? Well, I love her because I'm very into Kathy because I love Sweetie. Loves it. You know, that's what she says. Sometimes I hear her in interviews, but I'm like, seriously.
Well, I love her because I'm very into Kathy Hilton, her mum.
Oh, my God, I love Kathy Hilton.
Huge fan.
Same.
And so it makes me love Paris because I kind of see that apparently Paris is actually really shy,
and it's not that she's rude.
She's just a bit confident not to be herself.
A bit like how Kendall Jenner gets a load of shit, and it's like they're actually just kind of shy.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Fair.
And I think kind of, you know, I just love how she's like, they're actually just kind of shy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I think kind of,
you know,
I just love how she's like,
love that.
Love that.
It's the tone of her voice as well.
You know,
Lottie,
our friend,
like parties with her.
I just find that so cool.
Fascinating.
Fascinating.
Fascinating.
On to serious stuff.
We did a poll.
We got the poll.
We did a poll on instagram guys do you remember i
asked that was my single diaries i was basically asking you guys and sophie if it's acceptable to
date two people on the same day two different people yeah on two different dates basically
on the same day um we came to the conclusion that it's fine even though i decided not to do it and
i sacked off one of them yeah i know i don't know why you did it but that was more so because you
just felt too well and like two in one day would have knocked you over the edge yeah or was it
your conscience let's be honest it was my conscience would, and, like, two in one day would have knocked you over the edge. Yeah. Or was it your conscience? Let's be honest.
It was my conscience.
Yeah, you weren't going to date two in one day.
No, I just can't do it.
I'm even dating two in one week.
Oh, no.
It's really quite, like, it blows my mind slightly.
Oh, scram.
No, no, no, it's actually more tiring.
It's not as easy as it looks.
Well, no, it's because you have to drink.
Yeah, you do.
I actually want to ask people this.
Who, how do you do, like, this is what you do. If you're sober, how no you do i actually want to ask people this who how do you do like this is
what you're sober how do you yeah like that's that's fucking fair play like i always think
you know when you don't when i was single yeah there are a lot of nights when i on a monday
night i was just like i really don't want to drink tonight but i also would quite like to
and that's the only night i can go on this date but i was like i'm too i don't i have to have a
drink because we're social so if you are
so no rest for the wicked honey you've got to just get through it when you're single you've
got to do it you've got to just have a glass of wine at 2 p.m the next day that minister's doing
right now god we're getting yeah um okay well somebody tony i'm gonna say his name because
he doesn't say keep it not him said love this absolutely just make sure that you don't
get drunk and sidetracked for date number two
such a truth. Yeah yeah good piece of advice
that is. Oh my god you turn up absolutely smashed
with like lipstick all over your face because you've
had a kiss. That would be bad. That would be so lazy
I wouldn't do that I don't wear lipstick so okay.
Yeah also you might not kiss once if I say who knows
how about a nice healthy brunch with
date number one and dinner with a drink
with the date number two woohoo for Mal. Okay well now oh my god i love you for calling her now don't guys we don't
know no that's that's the nickname my ex's friendship we used to call we were not we're
not going into it yeah no no we don't like that anyway um i feel really sorry for date number one
because having a healthy brunch sounds so frippable
compared to dinner with a drink in date number two.
Oh, God, Jay, you can't do that.
You've got to have drinks.
Yeah, I would do...
I would prioritise whichever one you fancy a bit more
to do after.
So then the first one is a bit of a warm-up date
and you might be pleasantly surprised,
which then is fine as well,
but I would do it as a warm-up date.
Yeah, because then you've got an escape plan and then the later one you don't have to leave like imagine you really
like them and you're like oh god anyway we will okay hannah says i did it second day i've now
been with him for two years and living in another country wow wow what living with him so i think
that she means like they've moved like together. Cor, blimey.
Well, that second date, you might have done it.
It might have been a positive luck.
Sally said, tricky one.
Yes, if it's fast dates, but not if you've been on a few dates with them.
I so agree, Sal.
Also, yes, if you are open with each other about it and casual dating.
I don't think you should ever be open.
I don't think you should be open about something.
I think just keep it on the because i
you can't say oh i've just come from another day no it's just unless someone asks like oh
like have you been dating somebody i don't think then it's right to lie you then just be honest
be like yeah i've been dating like i've been on a few days that's fine but i don't think be like
oh i've just come from another day that's like a bit odd yeah because if i was like yeah but i'd
be like i'm like should we go out yeah yeah i don't really want to continue this day i think first dates it's
so different like you can have i guess more open conversations about the fact that you've been
dating because clearly that's what you're doing with this person right but then when you like
date after a while you should probably yeah keep it on the deal because you don't want to offend
anybody do you no um no No, that song's yours.
Sally, tricky one.
No, I just said that.
Oh, did you?
Oh, sorry, it's because I saw your name.
This is from Sophie.
Okay, so she said... You don't need to change.
Yes, but why am I bothered about figuring out the outfit situation?
One outfit for both or two different ones?
I would do the same outfit.
I'd do the same outfit.
I'd make usage of being able to get one wicked outfit and use it for two days.
Depends on the type of dates. I see what she's saying.
Oh, right.
So let's just say, like, it's a daytime date and you're, like, going for a flipping stroll through Bachelorette.
No, no, I wouldn't like that because I'd like to go home and freshen up.
I really couldn't do that. I'd have to go home and change.
But if it's back-to-back, like, drinks, definitely the same outfit.
Same outfit, yeah, I agree.
God.
I agree.
But let's just talk about also
like the the majority that poll oh yeah what was it 68 stunning so you guys have voted we listen
we hear you melissa two dates on the same day you've got to test it out unless no i don't know
if i can do that now guys my energy is running yeah but then you won't be drinking you'll only
be drinking that same night so it's basically the same you're just cutting it in two yeah we'll see i don't know anyway slim pickings
we've got a really fun right do you guys remember the gym crush scenario and minnesota and i were
like please can you give us that was a hard one for us to give advice on yeah we needed more info
well we've got more info so i was the one who wrote in about the gym cars died listening to
it i thought it would be good to give more context.
Okay, good, thank you.
My gym crush is actually a PT.
Oh.
Done, done, and dusted.
My gym crush is actually a PT who runs a gym class I go to.
I've been trying to put Fela's out, but I do get sweaty during his classes.
Quite sexy.
Love this.
Sweat?
I get puffy, so that's not fair.
I do.
Once I didn't go to his classes and went to one later and he
asked why i was late in a jokey way and we had to convo but he hasn't said anything since i find it
hard to start a convo and wasn't sure if he was trying to be nice thoughts um you defo flirt yeah
i also think boys are a lot more shy than you think, annoyingly. Just be like, oh my god, I hate you. Sorry guys, this is me, me flirting, I'm actually not. No, no, you know when he's
like, ten more squats, you just be like, oh, you know. It's so hard. Don't make sexual
noises like that. Oh, okay, I have to tell you something. So, I used to do a gym class
with this guy who's an instructor. Turned he fancied me i don't know why
i really don't oh i don't know why i'm so beautiful i really honestly i really don't know
anyway i found out because my housemate told me and i was like oh gosh that's me i remember it
was a thing for a really long time he's like in love with you oh my god can i tell you something
he did so sweet so he used to wear these really ugly like what walk not walking boots like bike
boots and i and once he drove me home from like the gym i left them in the back of his car like, he's wearing these really ugly, like, not walking boots, like, bike boots. And once
he drove me home from, like, the gym, and I left them in the back of his car, and they
were so ruined, and I just went, I'll just throw them away, honestly, they're so ruined,
the zip's broken. Anyway, like, a month later, he came round to my house, and he'd resold
them.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
As in, done, gave them a new...
Wait, took them to the cobbler's.
Took them to the cobbler's, got me a new zip, and resold them. And I was like, oh.
Oh, my God.
And I just went, oh, that Emily's my house is. Thatily is my house that's no that's stunning stunning stunning but yeah there was nothing
there other than friendship oh my god no that's actually really sweet lovely lovely um but what
should you do i reckon just have a bit more of a flirt talk to him more yeah and also you can
probably do a bit more digging about it because you know that he works also also you can definitely
slide into his dm so he knows exactly who he is you know he's a pt you can follow him and like
tag him in a class is that a thing to do i don't really know also if there's other instructors
that maybe be like oh it's such and such single but it's quite fit and then that will just get
back to him oh yeah just be like just say to another instructor yeah he's so fit is he single
and that will just get back to him and then he might flirt
a bit more and like you never know maybe you don't see is he single i always feel like that
makes people think like like even if they are single that you're like really wanting a relationship
no it's just to know like if someone's not single then you wouldn't be interested yeah i know but
then by saying is he so fit surely the other person replies oh yeah he has a god girlfriend
and then you're like okay sweet done she you could have a she must know he's so fit, surely the other person replies, oh yeah, he has a god girlfriend. And then you're like, okay, sweet, done.
She must know he's single
because she's obviously stalked him on Instagram.
Like, let's be honest.
Some people don't put their girlfriends on Instagram.
Well, we don't trust them and we don't like them.
We don't like them.

dilemma dilemma dilemma right let's go you go ex-boyfriend dilemma here we go hey girls i love
the podcast i look forward to running to it every wednesday my dilemma is me and my boyfriend of two and a half years have just broke up and recently
due to losing the spark not much not making much effort and things just generally not being the
same as they used to be and a breakup is really amicable so no hard feelings etc really hard to
keep the spark alive after two years i really yeah i agree i brought him a holiday to berlin for a few days in december for christmas markets etc and he still wants to go
with me oh he says ex-couples do this all the time and we can go as friends and just have one final
last trip i'm scared we go and get hurt or think the relationship is worth getting back together
for when it really isn't how do i go about telling him i think we should
either cancel it all together or he goes with a friend how do i do it without being harsh
what's your thoughts on us getting together are we going together please help no i don't know
absolutely not i had this i had a similar thing with one of my exes um his sister was getting
married and it was obviously being planned for such a long time when we were together and we had broken up and it was like a month after we had broken up and
the wedding was coming up and he was like I still really want you to come the whole family really
wants you to come and like some friends of mine were going and I just had to make the decision
to be like no like as much I would love to be there and like celebrate that no I can't like
it's just gonna be too weird and confusing for, like... Imagine. Not really me, but, like, the other person.
It just gets icky and, like, confusing and, like...
It's also awkward.
No, no, you can't go.
I'm really sorry.
Being friendly with an ex, like, to a really high level is, like, virtually impossible.
It's fine to be friendly in a scenario where it's, like, you share mates and you see each other out and you're, like...
Totally.
...ambigual and whatever.
But I think going on...
That's just the most bizarre scenario that he's
even suggesting he obviously is still in love with you wants to get back yeah that's all it is
he doesn't want to go as your friend like he has obviously other friends he could go with he wants
to go because he's still in love with you and he thinks like oh we'll get drunk we'll sleep together
and hopefully we'll get back together yeah i'm really sorry but you know it's actually you've
got to be cruel to be kind with this and how should you go about telling him i think you
should literally say, look.
It's going to be too hard.
It's going to be too hard.
I think it's confusing for both of us.
I think a clean, you know, at the beginning,
hopefully we can, you know, I'm always here for you.
But I don't think it's a great idea for us to hang out at this stage.
Yeah, I agree.
Slash ever, but maybe you don't have to go in for the kill straight away.
You know what I mean?
So, dilemma two hi girls love listening weekly my dilemma is i booked to go to new york for new year's eve at the beginning of the year and haven't allowed myself to think about it
slash be excited yet as i was unsure if it would happen i'm guessing because she means because of
covid right but now i realize i'm just a month
and a half away from going with no new year's eve outfit oh i don't know exactly the vibe but i
assume it's very dressed up we are booking to go to a bar that has a view of the empire estate
eek but what do i wear help oh my god firstly i'm so flipping jealous so jealous and you've got a
month don't worry honey yeah oh so much i'm so last minute with shit like that i like literally
all the way next day like three, I like literally order my next day
like three days before,
like all my Halloween
outfits like panic buying.
Barbados,
I haven't packed one yet,
I don't even have a hat,
I go to,
I go to buy.
That's what you were
supposed to get.
I know,
I went to South just
to try and get it,
but I didn't.
Okay guys,
guys,
I've got to give
everyone a bit of advice.
Here it is Eve.
You,
there is this,
there are loads of them,
but there are these
hiring companies you have like
designer clothes it's like by rotation like my essential wardrobe's got really banging stuff
you can hire the dress per day rather than spending 400 pounds 300 pounds whatever it may be
better for the planet and sorry i'm this is not now but i'm plugging it it's just so good it's better for your wallet
as well
because I spend like
400 quid on a dress
and then I wear it once
and it just sits in my wardrobe
and then I try and flog it
on my depot
yeah yeah yeah
or it just sits in my wardrobe
and I'm like
surely I will wear that again
maybe
but I'll never do
yeah I never want to sell it
when it's really pretty
but I never wear it
it happens all the time
I'm actually going to give
loads of my clothes
to buy rotation
so you guys can actually
start renting my clothes out
if you found them.
I'm going to rent them.
You can just borrow them.
But yeah, I think it's just so much better for the planet.
It's also just such a great idea.
It's just like...
It's so good.
Also, you don't worry.
You could rent a couple of things
and if you only wear one of them, it doesn't matter.
It's not like you've spent loads of money on loads of things.
And I'm sure you'll wear one in your duration
and the time you're going to wear one of them. Yeah, another yeah another one yeah again like a wicked velvet suit it's really cool for new
years like you can get really very cold as well so we've got a dress for that weather yeah i
personally would do trousers i just i can't man do a lovely jumpsuit or a trouser suit then again
by rotation you'll see i really like their app because you see how people wear them on their
instagram like how the girl who's rented it out and like they have just really nice flowy And then by rotation, you'll see I really like their app because you see how people wear them on their Instagram.
Like how the girl who's rented it out and like they have just really nice flowy farm dresses.
Love Shack Fancy have really cool.
Oh, I love Love Shack Fancy.
A bit of glitter.
Very summery Love Shack Fancy though.
No, they've got really cool wintery stuff on.
They've got like chiffon like short.
You can go really out there.
It's very like boho, but it's also like you can dress it up and put a big blazer
over the top yeah really cool stuff um if you want to go like really slinky there's a brand called
manuri i'll tag it on my instagram um they do really cool like top and bottom outfits like
really slinky they're a lot of body shows maybe you don't we like that it depends but as you say
like she doesn't quite know the vibe
of like how to dress
so I would definitely
go down the suit
like pants suit
or blazers dress
situation vibe
because then you can
get away with
it being like cocktail
or like more casual
yeah
you don't want to go
and or you could do
like a glittery suit
which
fuck it
do you know what
it's New Year's Eve
there's no vibe
like go all out
what the fuck you want's eve yeah there's no vibe like go all out where what the
fuck you want yeah i so agree all right i've got a big one hey girlies i love your podcast and look
forward to listening to you every week i feel like i'm in a room talking to my best friends
thank you i have a dilemma i've been with my boyfriend for four months and i've never met
any of his friends or family. Ooh.
Ooh, red flag, red flag.
Weird.
After that?
He previously had a five-year relationship.
Oh, God, now I know what's coming.
Previously had a five-year relationship before me and his parents are not accepting of our new relationship.
What?
And feel awkward as his ex was in his life for so long, dead.
No, thanks.
Oh, sorry.
No, that's unacceptable.
Yeah.
They're refusing to meet me or welcome me into their home.
Get lost.
My family and friends, on the other hand,
have welcomed my boyfriend into our home,
cooked for him, taken him out for day trips,
and even asked him to join a family holiday next year.
Yeah, I just feel so down because I'm not receiving...
Oh, my God.
I feel so down because I'm not receiving the my god i feel so down because i'm not receiving
the same treatment or welcome from his family when i haven't done anything wrong i think his
family aren't happy with how his last relationship ended and feel loyal to his ex despite the fact
the relationship was not happy towards the end for either of them also another detail is the
relationship is long distance and we live two hours apart. I just don't know what to do. I feel as though I deserve to be treated in the same way as me and my family are treating him.
I feel like his family are fixated on their point of view and aren't going to change their minds any soon.
Do I wait for it to get better or should I just leave?
Thank you so much.
Oh my God.
I love you guys.
I would leave because I would actually resent the boyfriend.
I'm annoyed at him for not shuffling.
For not fucking sitting up for you.
I'd be like to my parents, are you guys okay?
Don't be so fucking rude and immature.
How dare you?
Pathetic behaviour.
I've never heard of parents doing shit like this.
It really shocks me.
It really aggravates me.
Me too.
I really dislike these parents.
Also, who do they think they are?
Also, you're hardly married with four kids.
Get over it.
Your whole life you're meant to have relationships.
So what if they went out for five years? Congratulate it and and move on i'm sure the other ex-girlfriends that is outrageous i
mean i i think that they're obviously a very stubborn they're an odd family from the sounds
of it um that's just obviously from what i listen i would personally get out of it i personally am
feeling very strong about this i don't really like your boyfriend because i think he should be like yeah he's just accepting it yeah and it's like no no
no it's so rude why is this even a thing like he should have stopped it before it was even coming
to your attention yeah do you know what i mean like the fact that you've now noticed it is like
why has he let that happen like why has he let it go so far and he should be far too embarrassed to
even tell you the truth on that exactly excuse like the fact that he's being like yeah yeah they just don't like no sorry you should be embarrassed
i've been absolutely mortified i feel really upset about that not not not not good no i'm i yeah i
would have that conversation with him if you really love him see what happens if this is no improvement
and nothing changes then i would just get yourself out like it's only going to get worse and you know how long can you
be in a relationship where you don't know their friends or family
like that's just such an enormous part of
a relationship. Especially as it's
to do with like the ex I just think it's so
disrespectful. Bizarre. And I think it's odd
um
if my parents were obsessed with my ex I would be like
I actually know a family that I bit
they love the ex-boyfriend so much and not so much the new one
it's really quite strange. I know loads of family that are a bit, they love the ex-boyfriend so much and not so much the new one. It's really quite strange.
I know loads of family who's like really close
and were really devastated from so-and-so's breakup
with so-and-so.
Really?
And I always think,
God, imagine being the new girlfriend.
It would just suck.
Oh my God, it would suck.
But it isn't awkward.
There are politics when you have had an ex
and you've had a long relationship
and they're very involved with the family
and then suddenly they're not
and you've got a new but like
I get them making mistakes by like calling you someone the wrong name at dinner and being like, oh my god
I'm, so sorry, but they're still welcoming you into the family. It's just like force of habit
That's different. This is like they're full-on like no not having it. They're like rejecting you before they've even met us
No, no, no, no
I also get it if like they really like the ex and they still want to stay in contact with her like whatever
But like don't dislike the new person give her a chance yeah also just be polite it's just really goddamn
rude it's just rude bad manners terrible manners i was like i personally i'd have bad i would have
fun words and then i would suck it off i would never like them going forward yeah you how are
you gonna get over that exactly how are you ever gonna think about. Yeah, how are you going to get over that? Exactly. How are you ever going to think about marrying this guy?
How are you going to think about your, like, no.
No.
No.
I'd be like, oh, no.
Can't stand your parents.
Can't, can't, can't.
Have you got a good winch?
I saw you put it up on Instagram.
Well, I don't have a good winch.
Most people might have seen if they followed me on Instagram,
but I did find, like, empty chocolate baths.
Oh, my God, I saw saw that and I was like honestly
I can relate to you so much
only because my dad does it
he goes into the cupboard
will eat all the biscuits or all the crackers
and leaves the empty box in there
done up as if it's full
so my mum when she goes shopping
doesn't get it because she's like Edwin
oh my god like
why would you leave the empty packet
he's a typical bloke empty oh my God, like, yeah, Jamie. Why would you leave the empty packet? He's typical bloke,
typical bloke.
Empty chocolate wrappers
in like our chocolate bowl
and like,
you know,
drinks all my,
like I have specific drinks
that I buy for me,
like there's water
for everyone
but I like these drinks.
Drinks them all,
leaves half,
like the thing
that opens the can,
drinks half of it
and puts the can
back in the can.
And leaves the can
and like it's not fizzy anymore, like what are you doing? Oh no, no, no. Yeah, that when he opens the can, drinks the coffee and puts the can back in the can. And leaves the can, I'm like, it's not fizzy anymore.
Like, what are you doing?
Oh, no, no, no.
Yeah, that's a big old wind from his.
Basically empties.
A lot of people will be like,
my sister drinks all the milk
and puts the empty carton back in.
I'd be like, oh, I'd be dead.
Yeah, it's just anything.
Any empty carton just really upsets me.
Like, even if it's got, like, an inch of milk left in it,
like, no, it's really upsetting
because I can't have my oat milk coffee
if it's just gone in.
God, you're just so upset at my ex for finishing the milk oh yeah well we all heard oh my god that was a wind of
the week that was the wind of the week right on to more important things single okay single diaries
right we had okay right you guys know the the term fanny flutter right james actually did a
story story about this recently like about like oh, like, if your girlfriend gets funny frowns or whatever.
So it is a thing that we've recently had.
I think it is more just, like, you're horny.
We've had a full-on... It's been throbbing.
Yeah, I have...
No, no.
I had a real flutter the other night at a date.
Yeah, it did.
Yeah, so what happens?
No, I'm not gonna, like, go into detail about the date.
It's, like, all we get. Like, she's so... Oh, my God. She's coy, isn't happens? No, I'm not going to go into detail about the date. It's like all we get.
Like, she's so...
Oh, my God.
She's coy, isn't she?
But you can't...
I'm not going to sit here and, like, totally spill beans.
We have to be...
You know everything anyway.
If it was a disaster, we would be telling her.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
If it's a good date, she's got to be a bit coy,
because otherwise she's never going to get a second date.
Also, he'll probably listen to it and be like,
well, what's that again?
Well, let's hope he doesn't,
because you've just revealed that you've
got family
that's alright
that's a compliment
yeah true
so something else
which is good
well something that
I hate is when a
boy goes
you pick where
we're going
oh my god
just pick the
destination
sort it out
book it
be here at this
time
sweet
I don't have to
think about anything
be a man
you know
that's just my vibe I know there's some girls that probably like it to be equal and like to be able to pick no thanks I don't have to think about anything be a man you know yeah that's just my vibe
I know there's some girls
that probably like it to be equal
and like to be able to pick
no thanks I don't

waddling in with this huge drink
