Hey guys (and Happy New Year). We wanted to hop on for a short episode to let you know that we have decided to say goodbye to SOMQL. Whether it's forever or just for now, we're not sure yet. But life has stepped up a gear for the both of us, and right now we can't put the love and work into the pod that it deserves.

Full explanation (plus the usual life updates and overshares) in the minisode. However, THANK YOU for your love and support over the past year. We are so proud of this little community we have created, and will miss bringing you the positive vibes and laughter so much.

We really do love to see it.

Hi guys. This is just a short one to let you all know that this will be the last episode of the pod. Whether it’s forever or just ‘bye for now’, we don’t know. But we have LOVED bringing you laughter and positive vibes over the past year, and can’t thank you enough for tuning in every week.

A full explanation of why we’ve decided to hit ‘pause’ is in this episode, along with the usual overshares and life updates for one last time (we had to, didn’t we?).

As always, we love to see it.

HAPPY SUNDAY LEGENDS! First things first, big apologies for keeping you all waiting on the final episode of season 3. The good news is, we’re here and we made it! To round off this wonderful year since starting the pod, we’re ending the season with a #deep one and bringing you 21 life lessons we learnt in 2021. Strap in, because things are getting reflective! Plus, it wouldn’t be SOMQL without the usual life updates and overshares.

Wishing you all a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year! See you in season 4!

Hey team! This week we’re unpacking a BIG question for all you singletons out there: is there such a thing as being too picky in dating, or are we right to never settle? Plus, how can you find the balance between the two? And how do you define your priorities and what you're looking for in a partner? Plus, there’s the usual updates and overshares from the two of us. Enjoy!

HAPPY SUNDAY LEGENDS! This week we’re joined by the lovely Emily Solman, aka @_emilysworld over on IG! We chat about what it’s actually like to be a full time content creator, toxic health and nutrition culture (trigger warning), feeling clueless post-uni and making a relationship work, even if you’re at different stages in life. Emily’s whole ethos is around putting a smile on your face, so we hope this episode brings some joy to your day!

Hellooo friends! This week we’re pleased to welcome one of you guy to the pod. Susie Underwood was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma last December, aged 29. In this ep, we discuss her journey; from how cancer has affected her life and relationships, to finding contentment and joy in the here and now. This is such a thought-provoking conversation and we can’t thank Susie enough for her powerful words. We really hope it inspires you in some way.

Happy Sunday legends! This week we’re joined by the wonderful Harry Savage. Harry was a contestant on the fourth series of Channel 4’s Hunted, where he caused ‘national uproar’ after narrowly missing out on the £100,000 prize. But what a lot of people might not know is that Harry lost both of his parents before the age of 20. We’re so honoured to have him on the pod today to talk about his journey with grief, and how it's shaped him into the person he is today. We also chat about how he came to terms with his sexuality, first sexual encounters, and much more!

Hey guys! Welcome back to another episode! This week we’re chatting all things confidence with business and marketing strategist and all-round legend Alice Benham (who just happens to be Jess’ new housemate).

We’ll be unpacking: what confidence means to us; why confidence is an emotion, not a destination; how being extroverted/introverted isn’t mutually exclusive with confidence; and how you can build and apply confidence in different areas of your life.

Happy Sunday legends! This week we’re super excited to welcome another Ali to the pod in the form of comedian Ali Woods! We chatted to Ali about how he got into comedy, and why he believes we’re responsible for making our own success. We also had a long old chat about dating, including why Ali isn’t on the apps, DM slides, age gaps in relationships and his biggest dating fail. If you’re having a rough day, strap in because this one’s for you!
