Not Without My Sister
59 – Don't Ever Put a Bowl of Nuts out for Arriving Guests
•
Why does bad luck keep hampering our every holiday attempt?! Why will Beatrice never again provide nuts for guests? Did Travis really steal Philip Mac Cabe's broken tooth? And has Philip kept up his pointe practice? We answer NONE of these questions in today's episode of Not Without My Sister!

From the Patreon: Chappell Roan and the Price of Fame
31:35|We go head to head on the recent Chappell Roan controversy. (Point to note: Chappell had not responded to Jorginho Frello's Instagram Story – what is this timeline we live in?! – by the time we recorded this episode, so we were missing some essential context but, you know, the general points still stand.)226. Bachelorettes Behaving Badly
28:40||Ep. 226Taylor Frankie Paul, the star of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, was all set to be ABC's Bachelorette for 2026, with her season debuting this Sunday gone. But in the space of a week, things fell apart spectacularly.Rosemary unpacks the drama for Beatrice (who has terrible taste and doesn't watch SLOMW), discussing age-gap relationships, "reactive abuse" and whether or not you should just send your kids off to fight it out in the next room… Support the podcast by signing up to our Patreon!

39:49||Ep. 225It's seven months since Rosemary started taking a GLP-1 and we're talking all about it in this episode – so a trigger warning for anyone who can't take the onslaught of GLP-1 content right now (we're sorry, it's everywhere!).

32:09||Ep. 224Beatrice is in Miami! Rosemary is making the bed! WE LEAD VERY DIFFERENT LIVES.

26:31||Ep. 223Beatrice has pledged allegiance to the flag (and the vibes), Rosemary is having some unfortunate stomach issues yet changing absolutely nothing about the way she eats and we're wondering what kind of grace period you need to give a loved one before you start to slag them about how drunk they were.

26:37||Ep. 222Would you consider going on a date with an AI chatbot? Is this an excellent way for people to improve their social skills, alleviate loneliness and connect, or have we already gone too far to the dark side of AI?

27:41||Ep. 220Beatrice's citizenship interview is coming up, while Rosemary will not be eschewing HER loyalty to Ireland any time soon – she's heading home, in fact, to eat some delicious pastries and breathe in the sea air.
