  1. Expecting for the unsuspecting with Jacob Dawson

    Expecting for the unsuspecting with Jacob Dawson

    In this episode of Untidy, Matilda and Hannah chat with artist and filmmaker, Jacob Dawson, who flips the script and interviews the girls. So, what happens when a soon-to-be dad realises 2026 is officially ‘The Year of the Baby’… and decides to crowdsource his entire parenting education from two women who have conceived, birthed, and (at time of recording) successfully retained their children? Jacob everything he didn’t know he needed to know about conception, pregnancy, birth, and how not to completely lose the plot along the way. From fertile windows and freezer meals to pregnancy naps, hypnobirthing, and why vacuuming might be the sexiest pre-conception move of all, nothing is off limits. This is Expecting 101 for the blissfully naive, the quietly panicking, and anyone who enjoys learning about babies via equal parts warmth, wisdom, and absolute nonsense. No medical advice. Many opinions. Strong encouragement to be a snack king ...

    Free yourself from the elf!

    In this episode of Untidy, Matilda and Hannah make a final bid for efficiency to cover all the talking points that got lost in favour of alluring tangents. They unpack Hannah’s devastation of being emotionally manipulated by AI dog videos, debate whether a listener’s bush poo was a crime of public indecency or an approved solution, and offer inspiration for ridding yourself of Elf on a Shelf. Hannah’s driving out the neighbours and getting duped by the false promises of petty chores, while Matty is crying real, bona fide, genuine human tears. A huge thank you for all of your love, support and being part of the show for 2025!

    Do you wanna feel my foibles?

    In this episode of Untidy, Hannah and Matilda get bum-clenchingly honest about relationships, emotional triggers, fear of failure, and the disappointing truth that doing “the work” doesn’t mean you’re finally “fixed”... (Wait ... what?!) It’s Matty’s turn to talk Hannah off the ledge this week! They talk hyper-vigilance, catching petty old patterns resurfacing, the pressure to get relationships right, and why knowing too much can sometimes make things harder. From breadcrumb conversations to the immensity of merging lives, they take a confronting look at the messy middle of building healthy relationships amongst an ocean of quirks, failings, foibles and feelings. Just when they thought they had it all together!  Earnest. Relatable. Slightly confronting. Very Untidy. A little bit silly.  References mentioned in the show: Listen to Unbound: Why love triggers us - and what to do about it with Georgia Vavasour and Hannah Davison on Spotify If you’re enjoying Untidy, the best way to show your support is by tapping the ‘+ follow’ button in your podcast app and subscribing on YouTube!

    HARD HITTING NEWS

    In this episode of Untidy, Matilda and Hannah are back together after Hannah’s pilgrimage in India to bring you a conversation covering all the HARD HITTING NEWS. Your Untidy chat is characterised by their consistency in offering you zero structure, maximum honesty, accidental wisdom, and altogether too much information, whether you wanted a discourse on butt hoses and glass bathrooms or not. They’ll let you know how to tell if you’re in a cult, upset home appliance moguls, and enforce a group hug for the overwhelming show of solidarity from the listeners in response to the radically honest episode, ‘Do other people this hard?’ Jump on in and catch up with your gals!

  6. Sex Ed Rescue with Cath Hakanson

    Sex Ed Rescue with Cath Hakanson

    In this episode of Untidy, Matilda and Hannah chat with the unshockable Cath Hakanson, a globally renowned sex educator and founder of Sex Ed Rescue, Sex Ed Shop, and the podcast Sex Ed for Tween Parents. Cath has helped over a million parents around the world talk to their kids about sex, bodies, gender, and relationships. Her mission is to make these conversations less cringey, more confident, and just a normal part of growing up. Cath unpacks how to move from the early “naming body parts” phase into the next chapter: helping tweens and teens navigate puberty, privacy, porn, pleasure, consent, and that glorious age where everything is “weird and embarrassing.” Cath’s advice is simple but golden: focus on tiny, everyday chats, drop the shame, and let your kids know you’re a safe person to ask anything. Because if they can talk to you about sex, they can talk to you about anything. Whether you’re at the start of the puberty rollercoaster or halfway up the climb, this conversation will leave you feeling better equipped, less squeamish, and seeing sausages in a whole new light.

  7. Do other people find this hard?

    Do other people find this hard?

    In this episode of Untidy, Matilda and Hannah discuss an experience every parent will relate to. When you love your kids to bits, but they’re pushing you to the edge of your coping capacity.   Hannah and Matilda unpack those big parenting moments: the ones that make you question if anyone else’s kids are losing it like this, or if it’s just yours, and what does that mean about you as a parent? They talk about handling everyone’s explosive emotions, the guilt and grief that comes with it, and how to hold space for both. There’s wisdom, laughter, and a bit of ugly-toilet-cry catharsis. From smashed rocks and frazzled nerves, to honesty, empathy, and the radical act of letting your tears come out, this episode is a reminder that love doesn’t need to look perfect, but it’s always doing its best. Plus, Hannah remembers holding a bus hostage in Peru, and decides to carry over ‘air fryer’ news for another time ...  Take care out there, people. You’re doing a better job than you think.  References mentioned in the show: Matty’s crying music recommendation: Max Richter – On the Nature of Daylight on Spotify Hannah’s crying music recommendation: Cellomano on Spotify Melody Thomas’s crying music playlist: PEACE on Spotify Melody Thomas’s crying music playlist: Ugly Cry on Spotify If you’re enjoying Untidy, the best way to show your support is by tapping the ‘+ follow’ button in your podcast app and subscribing on YouTube!

  8. Lie the f*ck down with Melody Thomas

    Lie the f*ck down with Melody Thomas

    In this episode of Untidy, Matilda and Hannah are joined by friend of the show, former co-producer, and fellow podcaster Melody Thomas. Melody is the co-creator and host of The Good Sex Project podcast and BANG!, among many other great shows. She joins the girls in bed, for a conversation about the radical act of lying the f*ck down.   Prompted by Melody’s viral Substack essay The Radical Act of Lying the F** Down, the trio explore what it means to step off the treadmill of productivity and listen to your body before it breaks. They talk about guilt, capitalism, motherhood, and why stopping to rest and nest can feel both terrifying and liberating. From the sign that read “Humans Resting: Do Not Disturb” above a Houghton Bay lodge, to rediscovering creativity through stillness, this conversation is both a permission slip and a challenge: an invitation to reclaim rest not as indulgence, but as a necessity and as resistance.
