Growing Old Together

We met on a dating app and we both have jobs which didn't exist in our parents generation. We consider ourselves a modern couple. Join Grace Mandeville (The famous one) and Ryan Anthony (The funny one) in our new podcast where we discuss the trials and tribulations of growing old together in a modern world. We hope you can learn from our ignorance and mistakes. Instagram: @growing.old.together Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ageing Together

March 2, 2020 • 33 mins

Grace could not wait to get older, she was so exciting to be 16. To have that very important experience in her life. Playing the lottery. Ryan however just wanted to be old enough to get his Hogwarts letter, some say he’s still waiting. Grace cannot count, despite her claiming she did maths puzzle books for fun. A shark will inevitably bite off Graces only hand, just so Ryan can go surfing. “We” have “Discussed” that Ryan can ...

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas Special Time! Join us as Ryan takes Graces on a magical Christmas adventure, except he's been reading Stephen King and for an actress Grace is surprising awful at role play. Grace's wind blows doors open. Juno gets to be an elf. Ryan won't ever get to read our children bed time stories. On a more serious note, I am sorry for my terrible story. We will return in the new year! Don't...

Watching Together

September 18, 2019 • 32 mins

Podcasts. Like watching something but through your earholes. We give a skim over the things that we watch with our eyeholes, from old World of Warcraft tutorials videos to Greys Anatomy. Ryan still doesn’t know how Lost ends, please don’t tell him it’s all the dogs dream. He will watch it eventually. Grace would like you to grab her Terry fold flaps or flippy floppy flaps. Heartbeat is actually about police and not doctors. George ...

Adulting Together

September 11, 2019 • 32 mins

What makes a modern adult? We have no idea, if you could let us know that would be great, cheers. In this episode we discuss the parts of our lives that have contributed to us becoming adults. Mopping up doggy diarrhea. Pretending to have a real job. Living the yolo life and drinking in the pub whenever we like. Are there adults or are we all just pretending? Follow us on instagram @growing.old.together. Please like, rate, comment ...

September 3, 2019 • 26 mins

Don’t you worry, we’re back to a normal length episode! Now that we’re married we decided it’s a good time to get to know each other, perfect time right? Ryan puts Grace to the test.

Wedding Planning Together

August 20, 2019 • 33 mins

Ryan plans his dream wedding, pints in the pub with the lads, quick snog and ceremony upstairs, a rave in an old cow shed with a bag of pick ’n’ mix and then all finished off with a greasy kebab. All for a less than the price of one of Graces T-Shirts. Grace however has other ideas, the spoil sport.
