The Way They Were

The podcast where every celebrity split is the one that got away. Each week comedians Grainne Maguire and Chantal Feduchin-Pate take a deep dive into a celebrity breakup, chosen by a special guest, that still lingers in their hearts and minds. We scour interviews, over-analyse iconic pictures and search for meaning in post-breakup media statements. Celeb gossip hounds will feel right at home, but really anyone who's experienced a breakup can appreciate hearing how the rich and famous take heartbreak to a whole new level. They might uncouple ‘amicably with love and respect for one another’ - but we never get over these lost loves! Join us every Friday for a new episode.

    2 The Way They ARE: Abraham & Mary Todd Lincoln

    In the second outing of the little cousin of The Way They Were - aka, The Way They ARE - it's Grainne's turn to present us with a couple, who despite all odds, managed to keep their wedding vows. And in this case 'till death do us part' was probably the promise that saved them from the scandal of the divorce courts. And in Abraham Lincoln and Mary Todd's day, it was probably easier to suck it up and hope they didn't have to stay wed in the afterlife!  Learn more about your ad choices.

    Chesney Hawkes, LIVE! Sam Malone & Diane Chambers

    Well, it HAPPENED! As promised, Grainne and Chantal did what most of us can only dream of and enticed 'The One and Only' Mr Chesney Hawkes into a room so he could tell us which couple he hasn't gotten over breaking up; and what a wild ride the escapades of Sam Malone and Diane Chambers' romance was.... almost worthy of a storyline from a 1980s sitcom*. Not only will you hear Chesney talk about his own romantic endeavours, but you'll also get to listen to some of the most dramatic - and electric - reenactments we've ever had on the show. Thank you to everyone who made it down to see this, no doubt you're still reliving the incredible performances Chesney did of his new track 'Get A Hold of Yourself' and THAT song from the 1990s, but for those of you who couldn't join us, this episode is a gift for you to enjoy...*CHEERS! Keep watching The Way You Were feed, as although this season is drawing to a close, Grainne and Chantal have some VERY exciting special episodes dropping every Friday from next week - 01/11/24.   Learn more about your ad choices.
