  • Ep 10: easter eggs unwrapped

    We filmed Episode 10 of our Easter edition podcast this week and decided to taste test a mix of British (and not-so-British) Easter eggs — Mini Eggs, Caramilk Reptile Eggs, and popping candy chocolate oranges made it to the lineup.

    Things got a bit chaotic… the popping candy set us off, the reptile eggs were questionable, and we couldn’t stop laughing. It’s probably not our most professional episode — but definitely one of the funniest.

    Worth a listen if you’re into random chocolate reviews and a lot of giggling.

  • Ep 9: mozart is dead???

    This week we’re catching you up on our very different Eid breaks – Alana went full tourist in Vienna and Budapest (with her whole family in tow), while Alex stayed in Dubai living her best beach-dinner-repeat life.


    We chat travel, Brits abroad energy (you know the type), Dubai's UV index!! and question whether Mozart is actually dead or just really good at hiding.

  • Ep 7: what's in our handbags!

    This week, we take a look inside our handbags—because even we’re not sure what’s in there. From a lip gloss for every occasion to the best hand creams we swear by, we’re sharing our everyday essentials along with a few unexpected (and probably unnecessary) finds. It’s a mix of beauty must-haves, random bits we’ve collected along the way, and a catch-up on what’s been on our minds lately.

  • Ep 6: What your Dubai neighbourhood says about you

    In this episode of The Desert Edit, we are decoding Dubai—because where you live definitely says something about you. Are you a Marina girl who loves a rooftop moment, a Downtown babe who thrives in the hustle, or a palm queen living the luxury life? We’re breaking it all down.


    Then, it’s time for a fire round of How Well Do We Actually Know Each Other?

  • Ep 5: Dubai myths and bucket lists

    Is Dubai really all sunshine, luxury, and no culture? In this episode, we’re spilling the tea on the biggest misconceptions about life in the city—because not everyone is a billionaire, and yes, there’s way more to Dubai than brunches and beach clubs. Plus, we’re sharing what’s on our Dubai bucket lists, from skydiving over the Palm to riding horses through the desert. Grab a coffee and let’s chat!
