    Supporting Small Business When You're Skint

    We're no experts, but you don't need one to tell you that our beloved pubs, cafes, restaurants and shops are doing it tough right now. So how can we best support them... when our own finances are kinda iffy? To find out what small businesses are dealing with right now we talk to Beth Wicks, the owner of Katie's favourite second hand clothes shop, Swop. Also: the wild world of "disaster capitalism", big business being trash and Reformation making face masks (with a thigh-high slit).

This ep, Katie and Josie speak to self-taught cook and author of 'Tin Can Magic', Jess Dennison, about her frugal cooking hacks and zero waste mantra. Plus, the two chat about the decline of celebrity influence and influencer influence.

  5. Actually, You Don't Have To Be Productive Right Now

    Actually, You Don't Have To Be Productive Right Now

    Apparently "Shakespeare wrote King Lear during the plague," which, pfft. Katie and Josie talk about the crazy capitalist lie that everyone should be using their COVID-19 isolation to do something 'worthy' and 'productive'. As a counter argument, maybe just cut yourself some slack and watch all of Vanderpump Rules instead? The two also discuss the privilege of staying at home and the surprising celebrities who have shown themselves as class allies.

    This Is A Weird Time

    Katie and Josie had a whole plan for how season two was gonna go. Safe to say, this wasn't it! In this mini-ep, they talk about how fast things are changing with COVID-19, whether they'll be spending more money in isolation and, well, if they should even keep podcasting in this time of doom.
