Mr James Bellringer is a surgeon who specialises in gender surgery in transwomen. 

James has been doing gender surgery since 2000 - and in this conversation, he discusses what the climate around gender surgery was like when he started and how he sees it now. He tells us about his experiences of the transformative effects of gender surgery, how vital it is for the mental health of his patients, and how he feels the treatment should be managed appropriately.

Mercury is in retrograde and we’re all feeling it… 

Em, Al and Xanthe are in the studio today - and we’re gonna be honest… it was a little hard for us to find goods for this week’s GBA. Al’s been getting violent at the dentist and Em’s household has been hit by the flu. 

We also dive into the conversations that have been opened up in the mainstream in the wake of the Netflix show Adolescence - which follows the story of a 13 year old boy who is arrested for the murder of a girl in his school. We discuss the rise of online misogyny, how it’s affecting young boys and what hope we have of stopping it.

This conversation does discuss plot points from Adolescence - but if you haven’t seen it - the conversation mainly focuses on the issues the show brings up rather than the details of the plot. It won’t ruin the show, but you may get more from this conversation if you’ve seen at least the first two episodes of the series.

Who here thinks they’re rubbish with money? We did, until we spoke to Alexia De Brogile. 

Alexia is the co-founder of YourJuno - the financial education app, by women, for women.

In this episode, we find out how women’s attitudes to money are set from our childhood and how that lack of confidence follows us into adulthood - and stops us from growing our wealth…

Alexia and her sister Margot created their platform to essentially be the Duolingo of financial education for women. They have helped thousands of women to learn about every aspect of personal finance. 

If you have any questions about personal finance - What’s investing? Is the stock market safe? What is an ISA? - this a judgment free zone and this episode is for you!

We have *muchos* to discuss today!

Em’s got an awkward that Boy Alex won’t let her talk about and she needs to get off her chest. Meanwhile, Al has potentially given Betty a taste for human blood… 

We also discuss internet accountability - we know that that people say hurtful things online but why do people feel the need to do it? And why do people feel so comfortable to do it publicly? 

Alex has been completely outnumbered in the studio today with her very controversial opinion about tea. We’re pretty sure she’s in the minority - but if you feel like giving her some support, you can email us at [email protected]  - send us your awkwards too please, we LOVE reading them!

We think stand-up comedy is possibly one of the most terrifying professions on the planet - and today, we’re speaking to a man who has mastered it. 

In this episode, we’re speaking to the multi-award-winning comedian, presenter, actor, author, and scriptwriter Russell Kane.

He tells us about this experience growing up funny in a working class household with a hyper-masculine father and how that experience built his career and how it has been reflected in his own attitude to fatherhood. 

This conversation goes so much further than comedy - as we touch on everything from evolutionary biology, male sperm counts to emotional vulnerability - to unpack what Russell sees as a new vision for young men.

Welcome to the new format of our Thursday episodes - this is where everything with Just Us will live: GBA, Is It Just Me and all our general nonsense! And - boy - we have got a lot of nonsense for you today! 

Al’s bads are BAD today. We find out about her very bad week - and we’re even treated to a little bit of nudity. Lucky Dex! 

We also discuss a mega star who gave us a ‘polite decline’ - then we catch ourselves being potentially a tiny bit problematic. 

Do you want to weigh in on whether it’s okay for us to objectify men? It is different when men and women do it? Email us on [email protected]

We love you!

It’s time to dive into the mailbag!

Our amazing community sent in so many brilliant messages and emails in response to our body image series - so we thought it was important to take some time to acknowledge your thoughts and feedback - both the positive and the negative.

Em’s still officially on maternity leave until next week - so we’ve drafted in a VERY eager substitute - it’s Sister Jen!

We always love hearing from you - whether you want to challenge us or praise us, it’s so important for us to hear it. You can email us on [email protected] !

We’re talking Ozempic, again. 

Our deep dive into body image may have wrapped up last week, but we all know this topic is far from over. So, we’re jumping back in…

This time, we’re joined by influencer and longtime friend of the podcast, Sasha Pallari. After hearing our Ozempic episode, she reached out to share her own experience with Mounjaro — a journey she’s been candid about online over the past four months. 

In this conversation, Sasha opens up about why she chose to take the drug, how its impact goes beyond just weight loss, and where she sees potential dangers. Sasha offers us her unique perspective on the drug - how it has changed her life and why she has chosen to be so open and honest about it online.

You can listen to Sasha’s podcast Spill which she co-hosts with Billie Bhatia wherever you get your podcasts!

Throughout our body image series - we’ve had so many powerful, inspiring and life-affirming conversations with people who have incredible advice on how we can build better relationships with our bodies. One of those people is Alice Liveing. 

Alice is a personal trainer, influencer, columnist, podcaster and bestselling author who has inspired thousands of people with her relatable, motivational and balanced health advice. 

In this conversation, we take a look back to the 2010s - when she inadvertently became the poster girl for so-called “clean eating”. We found out how Alice found herself in that situation and what led her to move away from it to build a healthy relationship with her body image. 

If you want to hear our full investigation of wellness - you can listen to our episode ‘The “Wellness” Rebrand’ which is available now.
