WOW! Episode 60! And they said it wouldn't last. Time for one of our fave types of episodes where we pretty much just record ourselves having a conversation (unlike most other weeks). This week we are diving deep to get to know each other. We have a laugh about our phone usage time, sleeping habits, how we take our coffee and what holiday we are dreaming of right now. As always, give us a follow on the gram! @dunkingbiscuitspodcast and thanks for listening!

Let’s talk about the double Ls. Laundry and lounge. Laundry we have spoken little about before but this is in share housing. Who pays for washing powder? Do you have a laundry timetable? Is it first in best dressed? Literally. Then the lounge. Do you have a spot on the lounge? What about food in the lounge? If you stain it, you buy it? What about streaming services? Obviously you all have a different one to have access to more. Do you stop watching a show in a shared space when someone comes home or you were there first so you can keep watching? As per usual we start with a good news story and our weekly wins. Follow us on Instagram @dunkingbiscuitspodcast and tell your housemate to have a listen.

This we are starting our series on share housing! What was supposed to be a nice quick episode has now turned into a two-parter because, we may have had some opinions. In this episode we are having a look at the two most important rooms in the house - the kitchen and the bathroom. What is the correct dishwasher etiquette? Surely it's you spill it, you clean it?! Right? We then flip to the bathroom and have a chat about all things hair, products and wet towels on the floor. As always, share/like on IG @dunkingbiscuitspodcast and tell ya mates! Or use this episode to start an awkward conversation with your messy housemate!

In this day and age it can be particularly difficult to meet someone special and when you do how do you introduce them to your circles? Is it in a group setting? Or one on one? Should alcohol be involved? Or over a coffee? Is there a correct order of circles? Friends, family then work colleagues or whoever you see first? What do you say? Do you use formal or nicknames? No pet names. Please no. We share our wins and a good news story from the olympics. Find us on Instagram @dunkingbiscuitspodcast and good luck with the meet and greets.
