This week on Literally, Not Okay, I’m joined by the baddest bitch herself, Emma Paige — host of the Too Much podcast — and we are in rare form.


Emma spills it ALL, including the insane backstory behind her former podcast, her literal legal drama, being erased from the internet, and how she came back hotter and more powerful than ever. We also talk boob jobs, the New York City vortex, girl math with martinis, real estat...

He was obsessed with you... texting every day, planning your wedding in week two — and now he’s gone?? 🤬


This week on Literally, Not Okay, I sit down with The Daddy Academy himself, Niko Emanuilidis, to figure out why guys love bomb and then ghost, what it actually means when they say "I'm just not a big texter," and how to stop spiraling over mixed signals. 🙃


We talk:

OMG you guys… I am LITERALLY not OK because I just sat down with comedian, writer, and former America’s Next Top Model contestant Sarah Hartshorne and it was chaotic, healing, hilarious, and deeply unwell in the best way. We’re talking everything from ANTM secrets and quarantine TikToks to her NEW BOOK You Wanna Be On Top?, bisexual awakenings, and why weed (in edible form) is actually self-care.


Sarah gets real about t...

This episode is matcha madness, babe 💚 I’ve got the hysterical and unhinged Payton Payne in the studio, and let me just say — we’re talking grass-and-ass flavored drinks, fake job scams on Microsoft Teams (yes, The Rock might be involved), and more choad confessions than the internet is probably ready for.


We’re also answering YOUR voicemails — tackling college football husbands, needy-ass dogs, and an Amish plumbing h...

You guys… this episode is a full-on Dallas DICTIONARY. I sat down with the queen of recs herself — Courtney Stensland aka @StensInTheCity — and we covered literally everything you need to know about where to eat, drink, date, and accidentally run into your ex in this city.

You guys... I finally got the icon, the equinox king, the gay gym messiah himself — Zach Signore — on the pod and we did NOT hold back. We literally raw dogged this entire friendship (yes, we’d never met before this and it shows in the best way possible). We get into Equinox steam room secrets, hot gym guys with no riz, our beef with Belle from Beauty & The Beast (she’s a pick-me, sorry), toe stretching, psyllium husk,...

GUYS. I rode solo this week and clearly had a lot to say. We’re diving into Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce’s alleged engagement (I’m literally proud of them??), internet hate, my Swiftie husband, and a full chaotic recap of the Love Island Season 7 reunion – from PR-trained drama to ball-licking controversies (you heard me right).

This week, I took a solo trip to mental illness and back—and brought y’all with me. My sister ditched me thanks to “ass foot mouth disease,” so I hit Vegas solo-ish, saw the BACKSTREET BOYS at the Sphere (spoiler: I sobbed), did chocolate shrooms, and then stumbled into XS Nightclub where… FAKE JUSTIN BIEBER performed. Like, what?!


I expose the whole scam, talk about being high in public, reliving my millennial glory da...

So this week’s episode… I don’t even know where to start. I was hungover, hormonal, sweating through my clothes — literally not okay on every level. Thankfully, Brooke Shelby came through because misery loves company, and we are spiraling together.


We talk about PMDD, throwing up after two martinis, being obsessed with Ozzy Osbourne, the drama at Starbucks (Matcha Watergate is REAL), and why I think the honeymoon phase ...

I am LITERALLY NOT OK today and honestly it’s the chicken sandwich’s fault. On this episode, I have the most amazing guest, Lisa Gilmore from the Unwinding Podcast, and we go deep. From attachment styles to dating trust issues, to fighting with your man over frozen cookies (justice for crumble), this one is for the emotionally unstable girlies just trying to survive in a secure-attached world. Also… I accidentally diagnose...

OMG you guys, this episode is insane — I sat down with my hilarious, unhinged queen Stewart Fullerton and we went OFF. We’re talking Love Island obsession, why New York heat waves are a personal attack, and how we’re literally NOT OKAY thanks to TikTok brain rot.

We get into Stewart’s Arkansas roots, dating red flags, why men shouldn’t talk on stage, and how we’re manifesting her a Jason Momoa boyfriend. 😂

    Ruthie's Table 4

    For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
