Social Moths episodes

  • Nan Dust

    This week on Social Moths, the gang flutter through a chaotic mix of holiday horror stories, social mishaps, and questionable life experiences. From disastrous party holidays and awkward encounters abroad to mysterious medical appointments and disappearing ovaries, nothing is off limits. There’s talk of carveries, SodaStreams, strange holiday entertainment, and a listener story about accidentally running a flower stall.

    It’s messy, silly, and full of the kind of social faux pas that make you want to laugh and hide at the same time. If you’ve ever had a nightmare trip, an awkward public moment, or a story that spiralled out of control, you’ll feel right at home.

    Got your own social faux pas or dilemma? Send it in at socialmoths.co.uk and you might hear it on the show.

  • Mothballers

    This week on Social Moths, Amy Mason, Lindsey Santoro and Harriet Dyer flutter their way through another gloriously chaotic catch-up. From children’s birthday parties and terrifying Peppa Pig costumes to IKEA trips, wrestling obsessions, and disastrous flat-pack furniture builds, it’s a full social debrief.

    They also open the Drawer of Shame to answer a listener’s question about changing careers later in life and how they each found their way into comedy—via temp jobs, drama teachers, open mics, and a lot of trial and error. Along the way, they discuss stage fright, finding your voice, and why being terrible at first is all part of the process.

    Plus: herbal tea emergencies, chatroom confessions, childhood ambitions, and the ongoing quest to impose a structure on the podcast (unsuccessfully).

    Got a social faux pas or a question for the show? Send it in… and join the fellow moths gathering around the warm glow of human connection.

  • Ghosts

    In this chaotic and very funny episode of Social Moths, hosts Lindsey Santoro, Amy Mason and Harriet Dyer ask themselves a simple question: have we actually been social this week?

    From four gigs in one day in Manchester (fuelled by a questionable “American pie” with a bone sticking out of it) to a 24-hour whistle-stop trip to Brussels, there’s plenty of movement but not necessarily meaningful interaction. There’s kitchen renovations, National Trust outings, and an unexpected deep dive into RPG gaming as medieval knights and fashion fairies.

    Things take a turn into the bizarre with tales of roadside wees during motorway standstills, being trapped in the back of a car with a bucket of wee, a rat in the kitchen saga that escalates to a dramatic countryside release, and possibly the worst faux pas of all: accidentally using a display toilet in an antique shop.

    Add in ghost stories, awkward green room encounters, big-head genetics, and plans for interactive darts and shuffleboard, and you’ve got another gloriously unhinged episode about trying and sometimes failing to flutter toward human connection.

    Expect oversharing, existential musings, and absolutely no dignity.

  • The Party

    Episode two of Social Moths finds Harriet Dyer, Amy Mason, and Lindsey Santoro diving into the messy, funny reality of trying to socialise in the modern world. Harriet opens up about her recent move from Manchester to Bristol and the awkwardness of starting over, while Amy shares how co-parenting can really work. Lindsey transports back to Victorian times and fizzes her child up before bed. 

    The trio also revisit the chaos and comedy of Lindsey’s unforgettable 40th birthday party. From ginger haired decorations to Harriet’s drunken antics before swapping stories about parties from the past, personal hurdles, and the strange ways we all try to stay connected. Honest, hilarious, and surprisingly heartfelt.

  • Nice to meet you

    Welcome to the very first episode of Social Moths 🦋

    Hosts Lindsey, Harriet, and Amy introduce themselves through a series of candid confessions, chaotic anecdotes, and the kind of oversharing that sets the tone for the podcast. Lindsey kicks things off by sharing her New Year’s resolutions. taking more risks and being kinder, while Amy recounts an unforgettable (and slightly alarming) attempt at burning bad memories in a wood burner.

    The trio reminisce about how they first met, bonding through shared experiences including a fiercely competitive game show and a dinosaur-themed comedy show. Along the way, Harriet opens up about a recent and life-changing discovery: she’s hard of hearing.

    Things get even more personal when they discuss what comes up when you Google them, revealing details such as Lindsey’s ADHD and Harriet’s deafness. With honesty, humour, and plenty of laughs, the hosts set out what Social Moths is all about. navigating social situations, awkward moments, and the stories that connect us all.

    They also share details about the podcast, their upcoming tour, and invite listeners to get involved by sharing their own social experiences.

    Follow, listen, and join the conversation, because we’re all just social moths trying to find the light.
