    • Why we should cancel new year's eve, trying to remember my friends exist and moving back in with my parents

      It’s the last visit to Lousy Digest HQ of 2025 and this season finale is packed full of questionable advice.


      CEO/Editor Holly tells us why people who read books are smug. Do they even read them or are they pretending?? Kingtern Rory is on his best behaviour this week after some online heat, so does a lot of agreeing with his boss.


      There’s all the Lousy New Year’s advice you could ever need, a demand for a dating app for friends and Rory finally says something nice about Holly when we hear what has been learned from Season 1.


      Bye Babe xx

    • Navigating the festive period, why we won't return to a nude beach and I think my friends hate me???

      You'll find out why they have never spent Christmas together, and it's not because either of them are embarrassed about their inappropriate office romance.

    • Things I WISH I'd asked before moving in together & why we've sacked off date nights

      If you thought CEO/Editor Holly and Kingtern Rory’s workplace relationship was a bit questionable, we’ve got some news for you… they’re living together!

      But how did it come about? What mistakes did they make? Who has the nicer poo toilet?! All these lousy questions and many more are answered on this week’s podcast which is all about moving in together.

      We’re talking choosing the house, dishing out chores, splitting the bills, buying awful sofas and keeping the relationship fresh with shared hobbies and mismatched Padel scores.

      Sadly there are absolutely no pets and still no knickers getting drilled.

    • Why my lying era had to come to an end, a mysterious poo on a pencil case & rory's *most* grim habit

      The road to breaking even has taken CEO Holly and Kingtern Rory all the way to Las Vegas where they’re looking to gamble their way to paying for the podcast, one dollar at a time. But are the bright lights an overstimulating nightmare?


      Fxck up Friday is back again with no pencil case safe from getting shat on, Holly’s lying era makes a triumphant return and Rory nearly starts another pandemic with a particularly dirty fleece.


      If that all sounds a bit chaotic… that’s Vegas baby!!!!!
