As the big day creeps up (THREE DAYS PEOPLE) we sit down to talk all things Christmas, with Charlotte catching up with the exceptionally talented food writer Rosie Birkett to talk about everything from perfecting potatoes, the science behind the perfect dinner and tackling gravy. We also talk about the pressures around this time of year as well as some deep sequin reflection and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel...

With a week of Covid confusion, we are back with some (hilarious) Quarantales (from screaming neighbours to Blackbird Omens), a follow up of that Normal People conversation, a conversation about '90s films (and if we can get past some problematic aspects) as well as discussing the important topic of... are fringe trims the new foreplay? Plus THE DISCOVERY OF SAUSAGE ROLLS (kind of).

#57 Catching Breath, Crying and Existing

This week self isolation finally kicks in, and we had to avoid not renaming the podcast 'The Cheek of It'. All grumbles aside, we're thrown into Easter weekend nattering (and June's over-indulgent egg hunt), our new favourite (and least favourite) rom-coms, Michael NOT Martin Sheen, the great pickle shortage of 2020, Charlotte's new crafting passion and a very special Betty Magazine charity relaunch. Thank you so much for tuning in, and as always- we hope you're staying safe and looking after each other.

#56 Self Isolation Kicking In, A Craft Addiction & A Meg Ryan Marathon

Shopping and Fridge fantasy special. We go through everything we've been buying or putting on our wish lists the last few weeks. We also talk baout the products we cannot live without in our fridges and Charlotte reveals her Butter hoarding. Liv tells a story of a made from scratch pizza that didn't end very well, Charlotte gets confused by the name of a very popular computer game and of course we've been watching in lock down in Telly Talk. Hope you are all staying safe and staying at home. Until next week.
