The Flat White Martini Birthday Pod
Happy Birthday to Sophie! She's now the grand old age of 30 something! It's all fun and games from here on in! Woop! We've discovered a delightful new drink in the flat white martini, Charlotte went the extra mile and added orange flavour Irish cream liquor to hers - chef's kiss!

<...If I was a potato ...
We had a funny Q&A session this week, the question 'if I was a potato, would you eat me or keep me' being one of them. Sophie had 4 hunky coppers at her door, don't worry, she wasn't arrested. Charlotte has had a twitchy eye and both girls completed their challenges. Enjoy!

Gappage at the top
Charlotte is on location dog sitting an aggy dog called Babe. Sophie has more bus drama, like what bus skips stops when they have a 'busy' day, surely that's just called running late? And why can't women accept compliments? We always have to downplay how cheap it was or that we've had it for years.

Banana investigation
What is it with fruit flies and their need to constantly investigate bananas? A fun scenario we came up with in our chat, hence the title. What would you do/how would you feel if your sibling matched with your best mate on a dating app? What toys did Sophie buy this week?

Who is Gordon Bennett?
Let's find out who the man behind the saying is shall we? Sophie finally received Charlotte's postcard, she's only been back a month! This week's agony aunt is about the bill disputes at meals for big groups and what have the girls bought that's worth every penny? Enjoy!

Did you know who was in the urn?
Sophie tells us a hilarious story of how she misheard a word because it was said with a strong Irish accent, hence the title of the pod. Charlotte bought a new tiktok special in the skincare department and decided to do her night time routine on the pod. Enjoy!
We'll now be podding every fortnight because every week is just getting a bit too much trying to do life and all the edits behind the scenes but we hope you'll still listen and please do send us an email if you want us to share any funny...
Enjoy your coronial spritz!
Sophie tried a new drink concoction this week, hence the title - Aperol and corona, give it a go and let us know what you think! Charlotte went to the dentist and had a traumatic filling experience.

Millennimals!
Sophie invented a new word this week and we thought it so good that we decided it should be the title of the pod because we discussed the interesting fact that our generation is in fact now a subject in schools! How fun!

<...The perfect (part-time) partner
Is the perfect partner a part-time one so you can each live your own lives and only be together part of the week/month/year? E.g. lots of people have sleep divorces and still live quite happy as couples, if not happier than when they did share a bed. What are your thoughts? Let us know.

Catching print? What on earth!
This week, we talk about the term 'catching print' and also how not to be a podcaster when Charlotte didn't realise you had to actually claim your own podcast on Spotify, duh! Sophie also tells us about her fun night out and how she woke up with a random Spanish song in her head, while Charlotte talks about the new stick on eye make-up. What will they think of next!

This week Charlotte tells us all about her squirrel adventures and Sophie is devastated at the quantity of mini eggs you get for your money these days. What an absolute scandal!
We have a couple of birthday shoutouts for Mel who's birthday it was on 24th March and for Wendy who turns 60 on 6th April!
We also have a special wedding shout out to Sarah and Adam but mainly to Sarah for their wedding on 2nd April. Congratulations guys!

The invention of the Cucumber Burger!
Well this was different, podding on a Sunday! Only so we could continue to allow Sophie access to an alcoholic beveraaage because otherwise, there's no point in podding! Charlotte is onto something with the invention of the cucumber burger! It's a revelation! Enjoy!

Savoury pancakes? Absolutely not!
Sophie was quite disgusted at Charlotte's savoury pancakes this week and to make it worse, she had the audacity to eat them on Wednesday instead of Tuesday! It was quite a foody pod with some quick fire questions on favourite foods too. Charlotte didn't quite grasp the concept and Sophie found herself being a bit of a tour guide this week. Enjoy!

<...Catfish washing machine minutes
Why on earth do our washing machines lie to us about the time left on a cycle? It's just not on! Also this week, we learnt the difference between incompetent and incontinence - every day is a school day, especially for our English teacher Sophie! Charlotte invented a new word - vimremals - get them while stocks last!

How do you milk an almond?
This week was a reminiscing pod where Charlotte read Sophie a bedtime story from the notebook Sophie gifted to Charlotte as a wedding present from her first wedding. It was all about the life long friendship the girls have shared - it was really very lovely and sentimental as well as funny of course. Enjoy.

Do your boobs get propped up when you're dead?
A very interesting shower thought title which came from a discussion about funerals - we were pondering if women would have a fabulous pair or boobs once in a coffin and if they would be propped up to make you look fabulous on your way out, one last hurrah! We of course discussed other things too! Enjoy!

Ep. 26 - Last pod of 2025! Merry Christmas!
We had a very festive pod this week with festive backgrounds and some lovely karaoke of Christmas songs. Sophie finished the episode with some nice story time. Thanks for all your support in 2025, we really appreciate all our listeners and snippet watchers. Hope you all have a great Christmas break and happy New Year! See you in 2026!
Ep. 25 - Caffeine 'ice' cream
We're back after a week off and sharing all our new beauty products. Sophie bought a haul and who knew 'ice' cream for your face was a thing?! Charlotte was so hyped to share her concert story that she forgot to do the intro and Sophie was gasping for a drink!
Ep. 24 - Run Charlotte Run!
Charlotte completed her very first half marathon this week - not that she's bragging or owt, just wore her medal on the snippets. Sophie went to the dentist again. She may as well move in at this point! We busted some primary school teaching as they actually taught us wrong would you believe! We also had a bit of fun with some music trivia. Enjoy! We're taking a week off next week so there won't be a po on the 8th Dec. Back on 15th Dec.
Ep. 23 - The story she weaves
Another episode of unstable internet! Very annoying!
We discussed a lot this week from Lilly Allen to beetroot turning Sophie's poo pink and from Charlotte's research into collagen to the sandwich effect of life and just knowing sh*t. Sophie is also hopefully getting back to the dentist, find out next week what happened with her tooth. Enjoy!
Ep. 22 - Sophie's Dictionary
This was an interesting episode where Sophie made up some new words and phrases, hence the title. Pretty sure it was her beer mixing with anti-biotics but I guess we'll never know! We talked about the tea on MAFSUK - Julia-Ruth! Shocker! Plus lots more fun things. Enjoy!
Ep. 21 - You can't hold what's not in your hand
Well this was a fun week! Lots of interesting topics, the Tudors, aging, collagen, cholesterol, robots, millennials - all the good stuff! Oh and Charlotte is TikTok famous! Enjoy!
Ep. 20 - Sophie's Birthday with a "Spice Girls" Reunion!
Sophie had her 21 again birthday this week where the "Spice Girls" came back for a reunion tour! (Nails, we're talking about Sophie's nails.) They looked great by the way! Charlotte had more issues with unwanted bugs in her house, why can't they just stay outside?!
Ep. 19 - We can't believe it's not chocolate!
What is the world coming to with 'chocolate flavoured' chocolate bars! Absolute scandal! It was quite a foodie pod this week as we discussed food getting smaller and less fun. We also had a natter about alternative career paths. There were a few technical difficulties with unstable internet connections but we powered through! Enjoy!
Ep. 18 - That dollop on your foot
There are no words for this pod, it was all a bit bonkers and Charlotte hadn't even had any alcohol! She had a sneezing sensation in her eye, a dollop on her foot and not to mention her Malteser head! Sophie had to deal with the likes of a small child eating playdoh at work and had a right mare with her pod room décor falling down. Enjoy!
Ep. 17 - Feeling like a froob!
We're back after our little hiatus. Hope you didn't miss us too much. As we were actually in the same room last week, we didn't have much to say this week and so you have a shorter pod but we still had a good natter about MAFSUK and a few other bits and bobs. Enjoy!
