Bieber, Bare Nails & Birth Plans

Boob Jobs, Bluetooth & Barrymore

Welcome back to Season 2, Episode 9 of Two’s Company. This week, it’s another beautifully unhinged mix of beauty trends, conspiracy theories, wellness debates, and surprisingly emotional conversations. We’re talking Avril Lavigne replacement theories, salmon sperm skincare, tattoo-related health scares, and why wired headphones are suddenly fashionable again (or possibly just less radioactive, depending on who you ask). Grace shares late-pregnancy updates, Sophie discusses wedding chaos and chlorine allergies, and together they unpack everything from breast implants and barefoot shoes to Drew Barrymore’s wildly chaotic childhood. Plus, Sophie opens up about donating her eggs through IVF in her twenties, what it was like going through the process five times, and why she feels completely at peace with helping other families have children. Thoughtful, honest, occasionally controversial, and slightly chaotic, like a long voice note from your most opinionated friends.

Bieber, Bare Nails & Birth Plans

Welcome back to Season 2, Episode 8 of Two’s Company. This week, it’s a proper mix of life updates, cultural rabbit holes, and the usual unplanned tangents. We’re talking Justin Bieber’s Coachella comeback, the rise of Vinted (now one of the UK’s biggest fashion retailers), and the quiet shift away from high-maintenance beauty. We also get into school choices and big parenting milestones, later-in-life birth trends, and what actually is the point of a birth plan anyway? Plus: Welsh retreats, broken Dysons, Last One Laughing levels of chaos, and the ongoing quest for clean-looking bare nails. Thoughtful, honest, and slightly chaotic, like a long catch-up with your most opinionated mate.

Botox, Bum Zaps & Bad Jeans

Welcome back to Season 2, Episode 7 of Two’s Company. This week, we’re diving into the world of “tweakments”, from microneedling and polynucleotides (yes, salmon DNA) to Botox and fillers, unpacking how normalised it’s all become, the pressures behind it, and whether opting out is the more radical move. We also chat about the so-called Gen Z “sex recession,” and whether it’s actually a sign of more intentional, emotionally aware relationships. Plus: carrot jeans, “bum electrocution” workouts, and the ongoing absurdity of modern beauty standards. Thoughtful, honest, and slightly unhinged, like a voice note from your most opinionated friend.

Sewage Scandals, Sad Boys & Sci-Fi Babies

Welcome back to Season 2 Episode 6 of Two’s Company. This week, we’re wading into some seriously murky waters. From the shocking realities behind the UK sewage scandal and Dirty Business, to a retrospective on America’s Next Top Model and how differently it lands today, we’re unpacking culture through a more critical lens. We also dive into the unsettling rise of the manosphere, questioning what’s really driving it and why it matters. Elsewhere, we chat fashion dilemmas (goodbye Uniqlo bag?), IVF and the ethics of “designer genetics,” and, yes, cyclists in the middle of the road. It’s thoughtful, chaotic, occasionally dark, and (hopefully) like a long catch-up with your most opinionated friend.

Skousers, Star Signs and Sleep Supplements

Welcome back to Season 2 Episode 5 of Two’s Company. After an accidental two-month hiatus, Sophie Hellyer and Grace Kingswell return for a proper catch-up, covering life updates, cultural debates, a quick news round-up, and the usual unplanned tangents. They talk about the realities of creative careers, Grace being very pregnant, and the internet’s latest fashion trends (lace tied around the waist, aka “skousers”). There’s also a Culture Corner chat about what they’ve been watching and reading lately, including the new Wuthering Heights film and Bridgerton. The conversation briefly turns to the heaviness of the current news cycle, touching on escalating tensions in the Middle East and how difficult it can feel to process global events alongside everyday life. In Explain It To Me, Grace breaks down magnesium, why it’s trending for sleep, the differences between supplement forms, and whether magnesium baths actually work. Honest, thoughtful and occasionally chaotic, exactly like a proper catch-up with friends.
