Julie’s Missing Toe, Passport Stress & Pregnancy Tests

Hello and welcome to Left on Read. A weekly podcast brought to you by Instagram sensation Julie Haynes aka Twins N’ Me and TV producer Brenda Dennehy also known as Brenda’s Bits.

While Julie manages the single mom life in Cork, Brenda has crossed the Irish sea for a career in television in London. Never afraid to laugh at themselves, the hopeless romantics share their disaster dates and dilemmas after being left on read more times than they'd want to admit! While Julie has been the victim of several catfishes, Brenda once faced the humiliation of being ghosted by her very own boyfriend..of three years!

Both Cork natives, the girls will be bringing you all the best banter and topical conversation that everyone is talking about .

Comedy

In this episode, we had a fascinating conversation with an anonymous guest who goes by the name ‘Ask Josie’. Burned by her own online dating experiences, she started a Facebook group 2 years ago aimed at helping other women and warning them about men online. But what started as an exposure group has grown into so much more. Josie talked to us about cat-fishing, the trauma of ghosting and romance fraud. Plus Brenda and Julie share their own online experiences too of course!  
 Bye for now and stay safe out there. Dating online is no joke.  
 Read about some online dating safety advice here.

We didn’t have meeting the former Taoiseach Leo Varadkar on our list of things to do in 2024 but somehow, we did it. During our conversation Leo talked to us about everything from encouraging more women into politics, meeting Donald Trump and the advice he’d give to his younger self.
