Not Without My Sister

'You're Mary Magdalene, You Whore' 15.07.2026 44min

…in which we each get new piercings, Beatrice tells more lies, kids who were never kids, a profound revelation about which of our parents we're more like, the moral superiority inherent in letting one's hair go grey, why Rosemary could never go undercover tormenting conservative Christian Republicans… and more!!!P.S.

American Girls 08.07.2026 56min

Rosemary has THREE cats now (Butter, Toast and Mel Brooks); "terrifying" 4th of July fireworks; Beatrice makes chicken alfredo (and didn't love it); Rosemary makes a patriotic pavlova; is there anything to celebrate about America in 2026?; the app that lets you order food that never comes; can lash extensions ever be too subtle?!; how do the "God has a plan for me" people rationalise what's happening around the world? (Are we philosophers?!); Beatrice's first July 4th as an American citizen; and, if Beatrice is found dead in her bed, it'll probably be Brenda. Support the podcast by signing up to our Patreon!

Virtual Reality Dragon Riding 06.05.2026 29min

Tax and the City 15.04.2026 30min

Beatrice may be able to do her own taxes, but don't ask her where her drivers' license is… Living in the US is just a steep non-stop learning curve.Things we mention include Turbo Tax, the fact that some states in the US have no state income tax (in case you're considering moving here, the land of the free – ahem – some time soon and want to narrow down the list of ideal places to live), the recent shooting incident in a Fort Wayne cafe, and Invincible, the Amazon Prime show Beatrice is (kind of?!) watching with Beau.Support the podcast by signing up to our Patreon! Catch up on the full back catalogue of exclusive episodes (and ad-free main episodes!) here: patreon.com/notwithoutmysister – you'll get a bonus episode each and every week, ad-free regular episodes AND access to our exclusive close friends feed on Instagram.And if you have questions, email us! notwithoutmysis@gmail.com. While you're at it, leave us a five-star review!

From the Patreon: Chappell Roan and the Price of Fame 01.04.2026 31min

We go head to head on the recent Chappell Roan controversy. (Point to note: Chappell had not responded to Jorginho Frello's Instagram Story – what is this timeline we live in?! – by the time we recorded this episode, so we were missing some essential context but, you know, the general points still stand.)

Bachelorettes Behaving Badly 25.03.2026 28min

7 Months on Mounjaro 18.03.2026 39min

It's seven months since Rosemary started taking a GLP-1 and we're talking all about it in this episode – so a trigger warning for anyone who can't take the onslaught of GLP-1 content right now (we're sorry, it's everywhere!).

Beatrice Mac Cabe, American Citizen! 04.03.2026 26min

Beatrice has pledged allegiance to the flag (and the vibes), Rosemary is having some unfortunate stomach issues yet changing absolutely nothing about the way she eats and we're wondering what kind of grace period you need to give a loved one before you start to slag them about how drunk they were.

Me, Myself and AI 25.02.2026 26min

Would you consider going on a date with an AI chatbot? Is this an excellent way for people to improve their social skills, alleviate loneliness and connect, or have we already gone too far to the dark side of AI?

What's YOUR Personal Brand? 15.10.2025 27min

Beatrice's citizenship interview is coming up, while Rosemary will not be eschewing HER loyalty to Ireland any time soon – she's heading home, in fact, to eat some delicious pastries and breathe in the sea air.

Rosemary's on a GLP1 and She's Not Sure How She Feels About It 24.09.2025 36min

Rosemary's on Mounjaro – or, rather, compounded tirzepatide – and has a lot of conflicted feelings about it. We're talking shrinking celebrities, the rise of GLP-1s and the massive pendulum swing from body positivity to whatever we're seeing now in this frankly confusing episode of Not Without My Sister.Things we mention include:The Guardian's Today in Focus podcast: What happens when you stop weight loss jabs?Em Clarkson and Alex Light's Should I Delete That?: The rise of Reform and GLP-1sThe chefs creating specific menus for Ozempic patientsSupport the podcast by signing up to our Patreon! Catch up on the full back catalogue of exclusive episodes (and ad-free main episodes!) here: patreon.com/notwithoutmysister – you'll get a bonus episode each and every week, ad-free regular episodes AND access to our exclusive close friends feed on Instagram.And if you have questions, email us! notwithoutmysis@gmail.com. While you're at it, leave us a five-star review!
