This week, we're joined by Paolo Mancuso, one of the hosts of Lots to Discuss. What started as two strangers meeting for the first time quickly turned into the kind of conversation that goes absolutely everywhere.

From Quebec's never-ending French language debates to Pride Month, James Charles, dating, relationships, my newest crush, and why cyclists somehow always end up on our list, no topic stays untouched for very long. We also compare notes on podcasting, swap questionable opinions, and follow more tangents than we can count.

No agenda. No filter. Just two people meeting for the first time and somehow managing to cover everything while you watch a new friendship blossom!

Rough drafts,

You probably remember her as the bride who broke TikTok with a 47-part series about wedding photos she absolutely hated.

What started as a photographer horror story quickly became something much bigger.

This week, we're sitting down with Alexandra Jaye Weinstein, better known to the internet as Sepia Bride, to talk about what really happened behind the viral videos, the marriage that ended just weeks after the wedding, and what life looks like when the future you planned completely falls apart... and somehow turns out better than expected.

We talk about divorce, dating, communication, why so many relationships fail long before they officially end, and why women need to stop feeling embarrassed about talking openly about what they want emotionally, physically, and sexually.

Unpack some truly wild stories, and discover that sometimes your biggest public disaster ends up being the best thing that ever happened to you.

So grab your tequila, rough drafts.

This one is messy, hilarious, occasionally unhinged, and proof that rock bottom sometimes comes with a really good social media glow-up

If you loved Part 1, sit the fuck down because somehow we had even more to say.

In Part 2 with Kaitlin Biddau, the conversation goes completely off the rails in the best way possible. We get into growing up Italian, childhood punishments, creator life, relationships, what it's like having your spouse involved in your business, living online, navigating Quebec culture, and Bianca's ongoing complicated relationship with the French language.

This episode is less structured, more chaotic, and feels a lot like eavesdropping on a conversation that was never supposed to make it out of the group chat.

We also left in a lot more than we normally would.

No life lessons. No neat ending. Just two professional oversharers continuing a conversation that probably could've went for a few more hours.

You're welcome.

Kaitlin Biddau is basically the internet’s Italian mom friend who says the thing everyone else is too scared to admit out loud. Between three kids, marriage, glow-ups, family chaos, and trying to stay “that girl” while packing school lunches, her content somehow feels both wholesome and completely unhinged at the same time.

In this episode of Barely Edited, Bianca sits down with Kaitlin to talk about everything from motherhood and marriage to weight loss, confidence, relationships after kids, restaurant culture in Montreal, viral food content, and the weird reality of living your life online while strangers feel personally involved in it.

They also get into keeping relationships spicy after years together, balancing femininity with motherhood, Italian family dynamics, social media pressure, glow-up culture, and yes… somehow the conversation ends up involving Bianca contacting an escort in Joshua Tree.

This episode turned into a much bigger conversation than expected, so it may be released in multiple parts over the next few weeks. We’re currently testing a new release format instead of the usual 11th and 22nd schedule… because apparently nobody in this podcast knows how to stop talking.

This week on Barely Edited, Montreal influencer Julia Grandoni joins us for a conversation about the Montreal influencer scene, what actually works online, and why authenticity somehow became rare. We get into creator culture, viral content, her new business, age-gap relationships, and the difference between having a real personality versus just performing one for the internet.

A little nicotine, a little nonsense, a little content strategy.

This week on Barely Edited, Melissa sits down with me for what was meant to be a simple catch-up and instead gives us the beautifully chaotic, extended director’s cut of her life lately. We get into new mom life, fertility struggles, breastfeeding, mastitis, relationships, and the general madness of becoming a mother while everybody around you suddenly becomes an expert.

This one is funny, a little all over the place, and full of the kind of side quests that only make sense when you’re catching up with a friend who has been storing thoughts since August.

NEW EPISODES EVERY 11TH AND 22ND OF EACH MONTH

In this episode, Bianca is joined by Chancie Carnevale for a conversation about skin, self-care, wellness trends, and the very humbling realization that some of us were not raised on green juice and boundaries. They get into growing up in survival mode, why wellness now feels like a rich girl personality trait, and how social media managed to make healing feel both more accessible and more completely deranged. If you’ve ever been bloated, puffy, burnt out, underfed, under-slept, and two TikToks away from diagnosing yourself with seventeen problems, this one’s for you.

Red hair. Red soles. Red flags we ignored in friendships for years.

This week Bianca sits down with Evelyn Skoutelas — a woman who owns 40 pairs of Louboutins and zero apologies — for a conversation that's equal parts shoe worship and emotional reckoning. They get into the jealousy between women that everyone feels and nobody admits, the adult friendships that start to fit like the wrong size heel, and why some women will hype you up in public and spiral about you in private — and sometimes that woman is you.

Funny, sharp, and just uncomfortable enough to make you text your group chat and go quiet.

We thought we were watching a hockey show.

We were not.

On the first episode of Season 2 of Barely Edited, Bianca is joined by her first guest, Erica, where they spiral into the cultural phenomenon that is Heated Rivalry — the slow burn, the secrecy, the tension, the cottage scene, and the fact that none of us are mentally stable about it.

Why are women simultaneously turned on and emotionally devastated? Would we tolerate an eight-year situationship in real life? Is this romance… or just a red flag with good lighting? And why does knowing certain moments were improvised make it ten times sexier?

We break down obsession, domination, fantasy vs. reality, whether Shane is toxic, whether Ilya carried the emotional weight, and why women — not men — are the ones who turn stories like this into cultural events.

If you’ve developed a Russian accent in your own home, can’t get the soundtrack out of your head, or considered ice skating “for the plot”… this episode is for you.

We came for hockey.We stayed for the tension.

Now we’re just trying to survive the wait for Season 2.

Somewhere between sober culture and scrolling culture, we lost the plot. This episode follows that thread — how going sober became the new cool, how being online became a full-time identity, and how we quietly forgot how to log off.

I talk about the rise of self-diagnosis, comparison, and jealousy as background noise, and how living online long enough changes the way you feel in your own body. And when you zoom out far enough, it all points to the same thing: why making friends feels harder than ever, why adult friendships feel fragile, and why so many people are walking around feeling disconnected without knowing how they got there.

This is a conversation about the friendship recession — the emotional cost of never signing off, and the quiet loneliness that comes with it.
