Spill Responsibly episodes

  • The breakdown on having your heart broken - do's and don'ts of dealing with a breakup! Smashing DVDs, sushi as a coping mechanism, and insta-stalking the new GF!

    WELCOME BACK SPILLERS!

    This episode is all about heartbreak and we get kinda deep here! In this episode we spill the tea on our own experiences of having our hearts broken and going through the breakdown of relationships and situationships in the past. As well as sharing our own breakup stories, we've got some helpful tips for you on the Do's and Don'ts of dealing with a breakup! For example:

    DO:

    • Drink wine with your girlfriends (shout out @dropthattrash Em Rina ;) )
    • Allow yourself time to heal
    • Get swiping and have fun ;)

    DON'T:

    • Hack his emails... *ahem *
    • Create a fake profile  and stalk his babymama
    • Underestimate your own self worth #GirlPower!

    Join us for a raw and honest talk, where tea and (past) tears are spilt in equal measure as we take you through a history of heartbreak and how you can deal with your own dissapointments. It wouldnt be an SR podcast without an afterschool special from Laura so stay tuned for that gem ;p

    Grab your glass of wine with your BFF, remember you are FIERCE AF and as always, Spill Responsibly!

    ** Note we make a special announcement that this will be our final episode before a short hiatus over the summer. We will be back FRESH with new episodes of the Spill Responsibly Podcast in September <3 ***

  • A man's perspective on single life, dating and relationships in London vs. NYC! Finding love on Craig's List, hamming up the English accent and a preference for some ' loud noises' in the bedroom! FEAT. special guest - Peter!

    Hello Spillers!  Welcome to another epsiode of Spill Responsibly!

    This week's episode features a very special guest - our friend  (and short-term dating ex of Laura's)  - Peter! Peter's here to give us the male perspective on dating across the pond and spills all on his experiences dating in NYC and Chicago, and how dating in America compares to London!

    Background: Laura and Peter dated in the 2016/17 Bumble era, before Peter's big move to NYC for work. Peter is now back in the UK and makes a special appearance on the SR pod to be grilled about American dating life!

    So, what you've heard is apparently true - American girls LOVE an English accent (when they're not mistaking you for Australian!) but they will DEFINITELY expect the man to pay for the meal! Listen to this episode and find out:

    • What differences are there between English and American girls?
    • Is it the men or the women who are too picky?
    • Where are the girls nicer? 
    • Where has better first-date locations?
    • How do dating customs differ across the pond?

    Peter also gives us a dating p-p-p-p-pet peeve!

    Join us for a few jalapeño margaritas,  which although were not really speciy enough, were balanced out by some super spicy talking points! ;) 

    Grab your stolen Marie-Antoinette glass of whatever you're drinking, have a laugh with us, and  as always...Spill Responsily!

    (PS. Listen out for the point in the podcast where Becki turns into a duck...!!)

  • International Women’s Day Special! Celebrating Women, Being Kick-Ass and Working to #BreakTheBias! P.S. We are not your default secretary!

    An International Women’s Day Special for our Spillers today!  In honour of #IWD2022 we are going IN with our celebration of women and womanhood!

    In today’s episode we talk about what we LOVE about being women, including the women we look up to and admire. We also touch on things we dislike about how women are perceived, and how we work to #BreakTheBias we are faced with every day as women. 

    We spill on situations in the work place (men – you do know you’re capable of minute-taking, right?), the expectations of “the women as the homemaker” (spoiler alert: F**K THAT!) and how we are going against societal norms more every day. NOTE: Please stop assuming that all women want marriage and babies…!

    Today’s episode also includes our usual special segment…A Pet Peeve (complete with theme tune – thanks Laura!) and we include a Place or Space recommendation fitting with today’s theme!

    Grab your kick-ass women-themed cocktail and spill as responsibly or irresponsibly as you want to! Enjoy!

  • When that FRIEND-ship has sailed: Ex-friends, toxic cliques and ‘trimming the fat’ off the inner circle

    Can you really maintain massive friend groups forever? What do you do when friendships become toxic?  How do you choose your inner circle and embrace the good eggs?

    Welcome Spillers! This episode is all about friendship and we go REAL DEEP in this one. We spill the tea on our own experiences of letting friends go, being let go ourselves and making those tough decisions about leaving some friendships in the past (PS: you DEFINITELY DON’T need to stay friends with the people from university!) We also discuss the stigma associated with friendship breakups…!

    Becki offers up some wisdom brew about ‘choosing your front row’ when there are a limited number of tickets to the show that is your life (the VIP section gets pretty exclusive!) Want to know the test of a true friendship? Then tune in because we have the answer!

    SPOILER: some real-life friendship breakup stories are revealed…! See if you can relate – we have all been there! 

    (Warning: Laura says “dickhead/dicks” a few times!)

    Lessons to be learned from this episode:

    1)    Get rid of friendships that don’t spark joy 

    2)    Just because they’re family doesn’t mean you have to like them

    3)    Don’t f**k your housemate

    You’re welcome. ENJOY!
