I'm Absolutely Fine! by The Midult

Do you feel like a fully-functional human person? Annabel Rivkin and Emilie McMeekan of The Midult look at all the glamour and indignity of being a grown-up, while rummaging through the handbags, emotional knicker drawers and lives of some extraordinary people.

    PODCAST FROM THE EDGE 34:

    Happy Friday! Just slipping into your feed to let you know that the week is nearly over, and there’s only one more week to go before we have to get through the next week. Anyway this week we talk about how we are almost unable to cope with the sheer volume of feedback/surveys/opinions demanded of us via email and text and phone: ‘TELL US HOW WE DID” they ask, then beg, then order us. Couldn’t they just wait for us to complain - which we can’t be bothered to do? To distract us we talk about the power of perfume to give us armour (Annabel wears fragrance every day) and to remind us of people, places, things…Starring Miller Harris, Cire Trudon, Chanel, Dyptique, Jo Malone London and Narciso Rodriguez.

    PODCAST FROM THE EDGE 33:

    Happy Friday! Just slipping into your feed to let you know that the week is nearly over, and there’s only one more week to go before we have to get through the next week. This week we go retro and talk about Rivals: unashamedly joyful romp or uncomfortable reminder of the inequities of the 80s? How much has really changed? Also - are there any Midults out there not devoted to lip balm? Do you have one in every desk drawer, coat pocket, bottom of bag? Is it less a lip balm, more a balm for our frazzled synapses? Lip balms supporting our existential crises this week include By Terry Baume de Rose Lip Balm, Carmex Classic Lip Pot Balm, Vaseline Lip Therapy Tin in Rosy Lips, Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask in Mango and Ciate Watermelon Burst 2-in-1 Everyday Lip Mask & Balm… We’ve clearly gone balmy.  Learn more about your ad choices.

    PODCAST FROM THE VAULT: POETRY FOR THE SOUL

    This week we’re taking a break from rifling through Annabel’s beauty drawers - instead we’ve gone to the vault and an episode we recorded last year about poetry. Because let’s face it, we are a little desperate for a corner of calm that we can tuck ourselves into; a mini-escape that is not demanding or exhausting or expensive. Our guest Allie Esiri found a way to calm the wild voices in her head; she is a poetry anthologist who harnesses our extraordinary literary resources to offer - if not a solution - then a balm for the soul. Of course, you might be thinking, ‘How is reading a poem a day going to make me feel less mad, vulnerable, sad, tired, stretched, defeated?’…Well, Allie came and talked about poetry. Read a few of her favourites. Recommended a few others. Does poetry have the power to make us feel a little less alone? Have a listen. Allie’s book 365 Poems for Life is out now… Normal service will resume next week, and when we say ‘normal’, we mean that term loosely, obviously… Learn more about your ad choices.

    PODCAST FROM THE EDGE 31:

    Happy Friday! Just slipping into your feed to let you know that the week is nearly over, and there’s only one more week to go before we have to get through the next week. Ok so Annabel is teaching Emilie to darn. YES, DARN. Because, MOTHS. But it’s not all rock ‘n roll. We also talk about parties (not dreading at all) and Annabel delivers a Midiot’s guide to blusher, so we don’t go out into the world looking like Victorian consumptives/Aunt Sally. She recommends Merit Flush Balm Cheek Colour in Cheeky; Charlotte Tilbury Matte Beauty Blush Wand in Pillow Talk and Jones Road Lip and Cheek Stick in Bright Coral…Check out our Instagram for the tutorials...

    Happy Friday! Just slipping into your feed to let you know that the week is nearly over, and there’s only one more week to go before we have to get through the next week. This week we discuss little pick me ups - Emilie tried culottes and she can tell you right now that they did not pick her up. AVOID AVOID…Instead Annabel recommends lip gloss and lots of it (yes, very Rivals)…We talk about Ciate’s Glow Dewy Gloss, Clarins’ Lip Perfector and Chanel’s Rouge Coco Flash as well as Annabel’s prescription for an easy Sunday face: Charlotte Tilbury Unisex Healthy Glow, Guerlain Terracotta The Bronzing Powder and Jones Road Lip and Cheek Stick. Add jeans, a nice jumper and hoops. Of course, hoops... Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
