What’s the point of skipping a plastic straw if Bezos is throwing a foam party on a $500M yacht?

Kelly sets off a fiery chat about billionaire greed, climate hypocrisy, and the exhausting pressure on regular people to save the planet - one soggy paper straw at a time. With Jeff Bezos' wedding as the jumping-off point (and yes, Oprah was there), the girls unpack the absurdity of wealth worship, the carbon footprint of private ...

Ever caught yourself mid-meltdown and thought, “Oh no… I’ve turned into my mum”? In this episode, Kee opens up about the confronting realisation that breaking toxic family patterns is so much harder than it sounds - especially when you're sleep-deprived, overstimulated, and raising a tiny dictator. She and Kelly unpack the parenting styles they grew up with, how those experiences shaped them, and the values...

There’s nothing quite like the internet to make you feel like a sh*t parent when you’re just trying to raise a toddler and post the occasional cute video. And look, we get it - people mean well. But when Kel shares a moment from life with her three year old and ends up fielding DMs diagnosing him with autism, it starts to feel less like support and more like unsolicited parenting advice from strangers on the internet. In this episo...

Would you submit to your husband and bake in heels for the vibe? Author, screenwriter, podcast queen, and all-round legend Clare Stephens joins Kee and Kelly to unpack the rise of tradwives - and why the aesthetic might be a lot more sinister than it looks.  It’s a no-filter chat about the bizarre pressure to live like it’s 1953 - only now it comes with reels, ring lights, and a perfectly iced bundt cake.

Apparently once you have a baby, your only acceptable form of fun is a pedicure and an occasional massage - and we call bullshit.

This week, Kel gets fired up about the idea that mothers have to earn their joy, especially when that joy looks like getting a little loose. Inspired by a brilliant article in The Cut, we unpack the judgement that comes with mums who still love to party - whether that’s a rave, rosé in a garage, or a solo...
