Formerly Almost Adulting… but let’s call it what it always was. Welcome to DADDY ISSUES with Violet Benson. I brought the original name back. Because I am the OG Daddy Issues - the brand that started 12 years ago and turned a meme page into a movement. The name you've always known me by. So we’re done pretending. This podcast WILL change you... or at least your standards. We talk dating disasters, attachment styles, adulting, evolving past your patterns, confidence comebacks, mental health spirals, breakups, friendships, and how to stop chasing, settling, and playing small. Tough love backed by real psychology. I’m Violet Benson - Comedian, Daddy Issues meme queen, ex-accountant, soon-to-be-author, and your unfiltered Russian big sister. I’ll say what your therapist is thinking but won’t text you at 11PM. Welcome home. New episodes every Tuesday/Thursday. This isn’t Almost Adulting anymore. It’s Daddy Issues.

    Goodbye, Pullout Method? Male Birth Control Is HERE

    WHERE IS THE C*M!?! No seriously you guys that’s the question we’re asking today and also apparently…. men are BEGGING for this?  News to me. On today’s episode, I sit down with L.R. Fox, founder of NEXT Life Sciences - the man creating birth control for men among other science breakthroughs for both men and women. That’s right - GET EXCITED because it’s finally here. Ladies... we're almost free!! We break down Plan A—the non-hormonal male “IUD,” a hydrogel designed to prevent pregnancy for up to 10 years and be reversed whenever he’s ready for a baby. Boom, bam—it’s baby making time. We also get into the PausePill, an on-demand birth control pill for men. Guys in relationships could take it daily, while the single lads could pop one just two hours before sex for 24 hours of protection. INSANE, RIGHT?! But perhaps not as insane as one unexpected side effect.... it may help men last longer. Ladies, forget flowers. One day, the hottest anniversary gift might be your man looking you in the eyes and saying, “Babe, you can get off birth control. I’ve got this.” SEND THIS EPISODE TO YOUR MAN BECAUSE HIS TIME IS COMING... AND IT'S TIME TO STEP IT UP.

    I Got With The Mascot with Hannah Berner

    Hannah Berner is back and somehow we go from broken hands to broken men in record time. Hannah and Violet get into people-pleasing, dating addicts, dating sober men, falling in love with potential, and the embarrassing things we do when we're convinced a situationship is going somewhere. Plus: Hannah's skiing disaster, why crushes are sometimes better in your head, and several reasons neither of them should be trusted when they have a crush.

    Let's Talk - June 9, 2026

    Let’s talk about… a teacher getting 20 years in prison, why every high school bully grows up to either sell crypto or become a life coach, the scientific reason couples start looking related after 2 years together, Alex Cooper is pregnant and honestly...

Let's also talk about... the fact I had a literal pdf file teacher in high school, how I accidentally ended up inside Robert Pattinson’s house, and the Irish man who underestimated my ability to ruin his day.

    How Men Fall In Love

    Everyone thinks men fall in love because of chemistry. According to science? Not even close. Violet breaks down what actually makes a man go from interested to invested, why so many women accidentally sabotage the early stages of dating, and the biggest mistake people make when they confuse attraction with commitment. From the science of attachment to the psychology of pursuit, Violet explains how men really bond, what makes them stay, and why forcing a relationship almost always backfires. If you've ever found yourself wondering, "What are we?" this is for you.

There’s a driver, a bodyguard, a hopeless romantic billionaire, and an unforgettable conversation about AI that somehow makes modern dating feel even more depressing. Love may be blind. But apparently it also comes with a security detail, a free trip to Europe, and the possibility of accidentally becoming someone’s sixth wife.

    Let’s talk about… how $1 gas station sushi may not be the vibe. That time I met God while fighting for my life in the bathroom at 14. How Off Campus made me realise I’ve been wearing the wrong bra size for 2 years.  Then we get into Euphoria. What life lesson is Sam Levinson trying to teach us exactly? Don’t get buried alive? Don’t trust girls with n*zi tattoos? nice toes and a jacuzzi will get you a last minute $1M dollar loan???
