girls we are BACK and better than ever after a little hiatus (blame the universe, blame mercury retrograde, blame a vomiting bug that had niv nearly hospitalised… anyway)!!! this week we are fully embracing aries season energy, talking about why now is the best time to start something new, bex's roman era, the italian way of life vs the american hustle culture, our thoughts on the love story documentary and why carolyn bessette kennedy deserved so much better, jfk jr dating sarah jessica parker and big being based on them (we did NOT know this), the manosphere documentary and its many problems, secret lives of mormon wives discourse, cancel culture double standards AND bex watched interstellar for the first time last night and has since applied it to her nails popping off as a message from future intelligence and we simply cannot argue with her logic 🪐✨ time isn't linear girlies!! we love you so much thanks for always coming back to us 💕 new here? follow us wherever you get your podcasts so you never miss a monday 🎙️ and come hang with us on instagram 👇 📩 business & sponsorship enquiries: heypayattentionpod@gmail.com [heypayattentionpod@gmail.com] 🎙️ instagram: @payattention.pod ❤️‍🔥 bex: @bexblah 💘 niv: @nivbyrne

what do bree van de kamp, maura higgins and a birkin all have in common?

girls we are BACK and we have a lot to get into 🎙️ this week: bex finally has fibre broadband after a year-long saga (it took a woman engineer to get it done in one morning after 12 months of men telling her conflicting things... say less!!!), her long nails are back, and niv is seeing dave live, is heading to alicante and has many thoughts about it. then we get into the good stuff, a full desperate housewives breakdown courtesy of bex's recent rewatch (tom scavo is actually the worst husband on the whole show and we will not be taking questions), why nobody wants to be susan mayer, why lynette gave up everything for a man who didn't even know how she liked her pizza, and which housewife we'd actually be 👀 then niv convinces bee to watch the love story documentary on disney plus because carolyn bessette kennedy's style alone is reason enough, and then we get into maura higgins absolutely breaking america on us traitors, what her next moves are, the birkin situation, and why the best women are always from kerry 🎀 we love you so much 💕 new here? follow us wherever you get your podcasts so you never miss a monday 🎙️ and come hang with us on instagram 👇 📩 business & sponsorship enquiries: heypayattentionpod@gmail.com [heypayattentionpod@gmail.com] 🎙️ instagram: @payattention.pod ❤️‍🔥 bex: @bexblah 💘 niv: @nivbyrne

Why are we afraid of being perceived?

Hi lovelies! 💌 This week, Niv is flying solo for a deep-dive episode packed with pop culture, nostalgia, and a little existential pondering. From binge-worthy TV like Tell Me Lies, 56 Days, Love Story, America’s Next Top Model, and Britain’s Next Top Model, to cinematic classics like Wuthering Heights and Charli XCX’s The Moment, nothing is off the table. She’s also unpacking the age-old question: why are we so afraid of being perceived? Along the way, she’s reminiscing about our makeup masterclass days and sharing the books and shows she can’t wait to get into next. It’s thoughtful, a little chaotic (in the best way), and very Niv. Hope you enjoy!! 💋
