Happy Wednesday, it's time for our weekly chat, wahooo. A recent piece in the New York Times asked Is All of This Self-Monitoring Making Us Paranoid? It was all about wearable health technology such as Oura rings. Oura rings are smart devices worn on the finger that contain sensors so you can track over 20 biometrics such as sleep, movement, body temperature, stress, menstrual cycles and something called daily readiness. They’re between around £350 and £500, which I don’t believe covers a subscription to data and insights, which is an additional monthly or yearly fee, and they promise to “empower you to prioritise your long term health goals and build healthy habits that will last a lifetime.” The New York Times piece is really interesting, and explores how this kind of data isn’t always a gateway to good physical health habits, but can for some people, increase their anxiety and unhealthy body monitoring habits.  We get into it and hear from you, the listeners, too!We hope you enjoy, and as always please do follow + review the show on your podcast player app as it helps others to find the podcast :)O,R,B xIs All of This Self-Monitoring Making Us Paranoid?

Welcome back EICuties! This week on the podcast, we have to make an apology to an unlikely couple before we get into the long and short of the latest internet discourse- height filters on dating apps, after Tinder announced that they were joining other apps in allowing users to filter potential matches by how tall they are. Are the short men correct that this is blatant discrimination or is it just a harmless preference? Next up we're discussing a social media wedding event after influencer Jaz Smith revealed the spreadsheet and planning that allowed her to post in real time through her recent nuptials. How many TikToks is too many TikToks for the happiest day of your life? 10? 20? 100? We discuss what it means to live a life so heavily online and if anything is really sacred anymore.

Hallelujah! You've made it halfway to the weekend. To celebrate: a brand spanking new episode of Everything In Conversation. Corrrrr, aren't you lucky?This week's midweek investigation is all about Justin Bieber's controversial Instagram caption, in which he revealed an argument where he told wife Hailey that she'd never be on the cover of Vogue. The post, which was to celebrate Hailey Bieber being on the cover of Vogue, divided audiences. Some say he's showing growth and accountability, other's have labelled him narcissistic & cruel. With the help of the listeners we go on a conversational jaunt that takes into the heart of bad husbands, via the politics of posting about rough patches and into the land of our own worst examples of male invalidation. We hope you enjoy this episode. If you've read this far- I bet you were a pleasure to teach and always handed in your homework. So here's some more: we really rely on good reviews and ratings to help us grow and keep making the podcast, so we'd love if you could leave us a kind word and a cheeky five stars. Thank you so much. See you on Friday!R, B, O x-----GLAMOUR - "Why Justin Bieber's Vogue Comment Struck a Nerve" Bad Influence by Oenone ForbatRomanticise Your Life by Beth McColl

Come hither into our watery lair... we three witchy mermaids want to drag you into our content cave... hehe. Happy Friday.This week on the podcast, at 12:51, we travel to the fictional island of Port Haven, where Julianne Moore swans around in floaty Grecian gowns, rehabilitates birds of prey, and presides over her billionaire husband's palatial home. Meghann Fahy plays Devon, who starts the series coming out of jail and caring for her dad who has dementia. She reaches out in desperation to her younger sister Simone, played by Milly Alcock, and gets no reply. But she does get a fruit basket. She furiously travels down to confront Simone and unexpectedly breaks into her new world, where her younger sister is the personal assistant, really the emotional support assistant to Michaela, the aforementioned ultra-rich wife. Is this just another attempt to ride the coattails of White Lotus' success? Or something different?Next up, at 34.52 we turn to one of the most unexpected rumoured romances of… potentially the century? That's right, it's Jojo Siwa + Chris Hughes. The Dance Moms & Love Island alumni have been setting tongues wagging since they appeared together on celebrity big brother. The duo are maybe the perfect product from the surveillance reality show... these two would likely have never met without it. Is it a showmance? is it a friendship? is it an us problem that we even care at all?Ruchira's been loving The Real Housewives of AtlantaBeth's been loving The First Bad Man, Miranda JulyOenone's been loving The Four Seasons, A Deadly American Marriage, The Last Of UsSirensLucy Mangan's Siren reviewKath Ebbs PodcastWhat’s Going On With JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes? - VultureWe hope you enjoy - please do rate, review & follow the podcast!

Get your cameras out, it's a moment for the pop culture history books. This week, we have an Everything In Conversation *with* the Queen of pop culture deep-dives: Caroline O'Donoghue.We tackled everything with the best-selling author, podcaster, and journalist, from how we consider art from artists who commit atrocious acts, to why we can't accept satire from women. There are some absolute gems including some very special analysis into why Gordon Ramsey's TV work is a feminist piece of culture worth academic investigation, and possibly one of the best listener questions we have ever received for a guest....Ramsey's Kitchen NightmaresThe Rachel Incident SkipshockSentimental Garbage Live

Murderous TV crushes, TikTok propaganda and whether the internet has eradicated all our unique personalities. Just another day in content city!  First up at 15:45 we’re discussing which modern propaganda we are and are not falling for. From Labubus to organic deodorant, Dubai chocolate to Soho House, hormonal contraception to tattoo regret… what’s a psy-op and what’s a stretch?   Next up at 27 minutes we talk about the new Mary Oliver merch and the collapse of individuality. Have we lost the art of existing unselfconsciously in our quest to understand ourselves through consumption and categorisation? Aaaand spoiler alert from 42:50- we're being brutally honest about the latest and final series of You. Did it hit the spot or did it fail & flop? Let's find out! Thanks so much for listening!

Happy Hump day to you and your lovely lady lumps - and lovely lady lumps we shall be discussing! *** Trigger warning, there is discussion of eating disorders, diet culture, exercise addiction and more ***First there was ‘nothing tastes as good as skinny feels’, then there was ‘beach body ready’, and then there was a brief respite when we were all told that 'every body was a bikini body'. But now, in 2025, it seems that all of those narratives exist at the same time, creating a sort of cognitive dissonance that has us all saying one thing, and feeling another.The current tiktok trend is bikini tax, the price to pay for getting into a cozzy, apparently, is making yourself smaller…So have we really made any progress when it comes to what makes a bikini body? Is it worse than ever before?We hope you enjoy, please do rate, review and follow the show, it helps others' to find us, and us to keep making it :) B,R,O xxHow To Have A Body In Summer - Ismene Ormonde

Virgins, Vampires & A Very Demure, Very Mindful dress-code... what more could you want? Happy Everything Is Content day!First up this week, we're discussing a new reality TV show that premiered on Channel 4... and Love Island it ain’t. Virgin Island follows 12 adults between the ages of 22 and 30 who have yet to have sex, as they embark on a journey of sexual self discovery on a retreat off the coast of Croatia. There are sex therapists, sex surrogates, group activities, bonding exercises, massages, solo sessions and more. Is it exploitative? Is it heartwarming? Is it too much for our prudish British sensibilities? Listen to find out!Next up, in a very non-French move, there's an anti-nipple vendetta at one of the most glamorous events of the year. One day before the 78th film festival began, Cannes updated the official website to say that ‘For decency reasons, nudity is prohibited on the Red Carpet, as well as in any other area of the Festival.' Is this more conversative-creep? Or is just a reactionary decision based on the Bianca Censori Grammy's stunt?And last but by no means least, Sinners. It’s been described as a Southern vampire fantasia and another incredible addition to Black horror. Michael B Jordan plays gangster twins, the “Smokestack twins’ specifically, who reconnect with their younger Blues loving cousin, Sammie, who helps them open up a juke joint. But they’re soon confronted with the absolutely menacing Jack O Connell, who plays head vampire Remmick. Soon things spiral out of control and it becomes a war between the last remaining few and the growing swarm of vampires. And they’ve just got survive the last few hours of nightfall.
