Did you tell your boyfriend about my sex life? 13.10.2026 43mHi!!!!! What are we oversharing today? A viral debate from The Cut has us asking the ultimate friendship question: "Why are you telling your boyfriend about my sex life?" Is sharing everything with your partner a sign of intimacy, or does it make you a bad friend? We're unpacking where we draw the line, plus revealing our 10 unwritten rules of friendship (including a few chosen by YOU!). Then we dive into the big question: is joy actually a skill you can learn, or does chasing happiness risk slipping into toxic positivity? Plus, we're sharing our favourite ways to bring more whimsy into everyday life. The TikToks we mentioned during this segment are from users @oliohanian, @murugimunyi, and @marthaawalsh. In this episode, Steph recommended brand Lovaan, and Laura recommended organisational hacks from TikTok user Amy Abode.

'My phone bill exposed my nudes to my parents' 11.10.2026 46mHi!! What are we oversharing today? We're talking about the Berlin Marathon runner caught 34km into the race... on the back of a bike. Which got us thinking: when have you been caught red-handed? Steph reveals her most guilty teenage moment involving MMS and the horror of your parents reading your phone bill. Plus, after watching Sense and Sensibility, we’re unpacking birth order theory. Are eldest daughters really responsible overachievers, while the youngest siblings are charismatic attention seekers?

The "pick me" label (and step into our courtroom) 06.10.2026 39mHelllllo!!! What are we oversharing today? We’re starting today with a NEW SEGMENT: Welcome to the Steph & Laura courtroom, where we’re putting the internet’s most debated opinions on trial. This week’s cases include: should you use a fresh towel every time you shower? Do you owe your friends a reply within 48 hours? And the big one… should every adult know the phonetic alphabet? (Spoiler: turns out neither of us do.) Then, we’re diving into a conversation sparked by the comments on a reel we posted last week: the labels “girl’s girl” and “pick me girl”. What do these terms actually mean? Are they helpful ways to talk about behaviour and social dynamics, or do they sometimes oversimplify people? We’re unpacking it. In this episode, Steph recommended YouTube channel @farmon212th, and Laura recommended Next Gen Chef on Netflix.

The efficiency cult 04.10.2026 43mHi!! What are we oversharing today? We're breaking the recommendation rules... we saw Verity, and we have THOUGHTS. Then we’re asking: Is facing life with urgency actually good for us? We’re getting into why we’re always rushing, and whether everything really needs to be done right now. Finally, we're talking all things Margot Ackerly (...Robbie). Laura has some strong feelings about it, while Steph and Laura share their very different reasons for changing, or not changing, their names after marriage. Plus, we asked YOU what you think about taking your partner's name when you tie the knot. A huge thank you to Maybelline New York for supporting this episode of the Steph & Laura podcast.

Steph has realised she’s suddenly into Dancing With The Stars… and we have one very important question: have we officially aged up? We’re unpacking the tell-tale signs that you’re entering your *older* era, sharing our personal giveaways and hearing yours too. Then, we get into the big relationship debate: should your husband be your best friend? A viral piece from The Cut introduced us to the phenomenon of “mankeeping” and, naturally, we have thoughts.

What is somatic movement? with Raj Barker 11.08.2026 47mRaj Barker is the founder of BURN by Body Medicine, a unique somatic movement method that combines yoga, mat Pilates, cardio and breath awareness. We’re so excited to have Raj teach her BURN classes at KICStudio this August and October and wanted to introduce her to you beforehand. In this episode, Raj speaks with Laura about how she first came to somatic movement during her time teaching at The Class in New York City, what defines a somatic movement practice, and why the language we use around nervous system regulation matters. She explores the idea that moments of nervous system dysregulation are a normal part of being human and how practices such as somatic movement can help us develop the internal resources to meet those moments with greater awareness and choice. WHAT IS BURN? BURN by Body Medicine is a unique somatic movement method fusing yoga, mat Pilates, breath awareness and cardio (not too much). We use movement to create sensation and, beyond our thoughts, we practice trusting that sensation to steer our process. This is a music-driven experience, where you'll be guided through intentional and embodied movement, cultivating a fire to either burn through what is in your way, or illuminate what needs to be seen, ultimately forging a pathway to deeper self-connection and holistic well-being. KICStudio x BURN by Body Medicine Raj will host two events at KICStudio on Saturday August 22nd and Sunday August 23rd.

Rib recontouring…we have thoughts! 09.08.2026 44mWe got a DM from you asking us for our thoughts on the rise of rib recontouring surgery so this week we’re talking about it. In case it’s not come across your algorithm - rib recontouring is a surgery that fractures the lower ribs to reduce the size of the waist. We discuss what the surgery involves, what experts are saying about it, and the marketing of the procedure that makes it look more like a holiday than a surgery. Plus - Steph has nits, Laura had a colonoscopy, and Bailey Smith has been caught out. Update - in the listener DM we read out we say that the rib recontouring procedure removes part of the rib. The ribs are not removed in this procedure. We have updated the episode to make this clear. WE MENTIONED We spoke about Kellie Finlayson.
