The Papaya Podcast

Our first ever podcast movie review and it’s none other than the 5-part Twilight Series that we binged over 3 days…and blanked out a little around Eclipse. Alas, a decade or so late to the game, we sat down to watch some of the most iconic movies of our generation, and broke down exactly the wins, the hilarity, and the plot holes that frustrated us. I’ll be honest - I have no idea how this podcast will play out for listeners because we were CHAOTIC.

Previously a longtime Tinder employee, Julia has ample experience in the dating field both personally and professionally. Countless bad dates and blocked numbers led her to decide to stop settling and enjoy the in between. Julia is the host of the popular Pretty Much Done podcast where she welcomes experts, authors and celebrities who have experienced love and love loss and who are pretty much done settling for anything less than what they deserve.

At 30 years old, Julia went viral for showcasing a day in her life as a single woman with no kids, after a political commentator shared her video calling her life "meaningless" because it doesn't revolve around growing a family. His commentary, and the ensuing dialogue from conservative media sparked a firestorm as thousands of women flooded Julia’s DMs with their own stories on how they live life on their own terms and timeline and praised her.

From her first successful photo to photographing Oprah and creating larger than life sculptures and breaking the stigma of the “starving artist”, Briony is here to share just what it takes.
