    Boyfriends Are Embarrassing, Selling Sunset & Emma Stone's New Face

    TGIF! This week on Everything Is Content... a viral article, chaotic reality TV and rumours of yet another celebrity face lift. First up, if you've not read Chanté Joseph's mega viral Vogue article titled Is Having A Boyfriend Embarrassing Now? then you've definitely seen the discourse. Julia Fox has weighed in (she says it is) and now it's our turn. We ask: what did we make of the piece, do we think this is an IRL phenomenon or strictly an online shift, and what do we think is behind it? Secondly we're back in LA LA land for a brand new series of Selling Sunset. Ruchira finished it in 3 days, Beth in 2 and we're all obsessed. We discuss the inherent toxicity of reality TV, this series' houses and whether we like seeing behind the curtain on these kind of shows. And last but not least, rumours of cosmetic surgery have been swirling around Emma Stone for the last few months and people are feeling a type of way about it. But is that fair? Can we reasonably feel disappointed when our fav female stars decide to opt out of growing older naturally or is it simply none of our business? Thank you SO much for listening this week and every week. Pleeease could you gift us a review on your podcast player app so other people can find us? We adore everyone who has already. Love O, R, B xoxox In partnership with Cue Podcasts. ------ This week Beth was not really loving Think Again by Jacqueline Wilson (though she remains a lifelong devotee and fan), Oenone was loving Zadie Smith's appearance on Adam Buxton's podcast and Ruchira was loving Rosalía's interview on Popcast and season 2 of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.

    Age Gap Discourse: Rerelease

    Hello EICuties! Due to circumstances beyond our control we were unable to release our planned episode, and so we've wound the clock back to April 2024 with a re-release of one of our favourite topics... age gap discourse and the time the internet was set alight by an essay in The Cut about a relationship between a younger woman and a slightly older man. What's our general perception of age gaps in relationships, is the tide changing and what did we think of the piece itself? Thanks so much for your understanding and don't worry- we'll be back with you on Friday as usual with some juicy new takes and topics. Rolling Stone - Aaron Taylor Johnson The Independent: There's a reason we love to talk about age gap relationships The Cut: The Case For Marrying An Older Man Hosted on Acast.

    Are We The Slop? The End of Reading & CougarTok

    Hello EICupcakes! We have a very special episode this week. Earlier this month we were blessed to do our very first live event at Cheltenham and this is everything we spoke about... First-up, are we the slop? A Substack essay piqued our interest as it argued outside of AI, our special moments – engagements, pregnancies, grief – have been reduced to someone else's low quality content. Secondly, are we heading for a post-literate society? Reading rates are down significantly. What do we lose if we lose reading? Finally, welcome to CougarTok – a new world for 30-somethings dating men in their 20s and *loving* it. TYSM for listening, love R, O, B xxxxxx In collaboration with Cue Podcasts.

    Everything In Conversation: Wage Gap Relationships

    We’ve talked about age gap relationships on the pod before... but what about wage gap relationships? For this week's extra episode we read this piece by Elle Hunt for The Guardian and asked you all at home if you had ever been in a relationship with a sizeable gap in personal wealth and earnings. As it turned out- many of you had. For some, a daydream turned total nightmare, for others a non-issue solved by communication and compatibility. We discuss the realities of mismatched earnings, the way it presents across gender divides and whether looking for a man in finance is the solution or a potentially very expensive mistake... Thank you so much for your thoughts, comments and personal stories on this topic. We love love love being In Conversation with you all. Please do give us a follow on your podcast player app and perhaps a lovely review- we want to keep making this podcast with you forever & that helps make that happen! Catch you Friday, O,R,B xoxox Links / Further reading Utopia For Realists by Rutger Bregman Are You In A Wage Gap Relationship? by Charley Ross Hosted on Acast.

    Celebrity Traitors, Sugar Daddies & Zack Polanski

    Dearest faithful EIC listeners, happy Friday, it's time for a round table discussion to dissect the biggest stories from the week. The UK’s first ever celebrity Traitors is here, following beloved series across in the US. This cohort include huge figures like Stephen Fry, Claire Balding, Jonathan Ross, Charlotte Church, Alan Carr and Nick Mohammed to name a few. The show, which was recorded earlier this year at Ardross Castle in Scotland, features 19 celebrity contestants competing for a prize of £100,000 for a charity of their choosing. We talk about whether or the beloved show is executing this new famous format. Next up, sugar daddy finances. We recently read a piece for Bustle by Camille Soheet Pesha called Even The Sugar Daddies Are Feeling The Squeeze: As costs of living climb, high earners who once had money to burn on their sex lives are cutting back.” And in the piece she explores a troubling trend where the men who were once willing and able to splash the cash on sugar babies are now struggling to keep up. Sugar dating, for anyone not aware, is a type of transactional relationship where sugar daddies, typically older and wealthier, would offer gifts and money and a better quality of life to often younger, very beautiful women who offer companionship and intimacy. We discuss our thoughts on the piece. Lastly, last year we had Brat girl summer, but the season of green might not be over yet, are we potentially having Zack Polanski autumn? The Green party has reached over 110,000 members at the time of recording, for the first time. In England and Wales the party has had over a 55% rise in membership since Polanski took over last month.  Polanski has had an unconventional path to politics, previously working as an actor, hypnotherapist and mental health counsellor. And yet is proving to be one of the most effective communicators we've seen in a very long time. One of Polanksi’s slogans is ‘Let’s make hope normal again’, is this stratospheric new interest in the Green Party making us feel hopeful? We hope you enjoy listening, please do leave us a review on Apple Podcasts and a rating on Spotify or wherever you get podcasts, love, O,R,B xx Ruchira's been loving: Roofman Beth's been loving: Better Man Oenone's been loving: Game Of Thrones The Celebrity Traitors Even The Sugar Daddies Are Feeling The Squeeze Green Party over 100k members Thanks so much to Cue for editing this podcast.
