Prepare to laugh, cringe and maybe even feel a bit called out… Before getting into the icks, Lil and Em catch up on the week that’s been, including a very important debate on which days of the week are "odd" and "even" (trust us, it makes sense), and a deep dive into the unexpected history of dioramas. The girls also reveal the potential new name for Suddenly Thirty listeners, inspired by a friend’s suggestion.

In this week’s episode, Lilli and Emily dive into a thought-provoking conversation about the pressures and dynamics of being the eldest daughter.

In this week’s episode, Lilli and Emily are sharing their thoughts on the impact of social media on their personal style. While the girls (obviously!) love social media, they have become more aware of the way algorithms are showing us what we love, appreciate and believe. However, with these algorithms, we are no longer exposed to the things that are outside our taste profile. So, has social media caused the death of personal style?The girls also catch up on their theories on the must watched series Presumed Innocent, Lilli’s experience with hair loss, Emily’s petition for free postage, and so much more!Shop Lilli’s wishlistShop Emily’s wishlistSubscribe to the Suddenly Thirty Substack where we collate all the things we’ve been into this week and share them with you.
