The ladies of Aux Anxiety are back! Iz has spent the last year getting culturally enriched in Amsterdam (if learning how to cycle home from a night out counts as immersion). Alex has had a slightly different cultural experience, truly enjoying the delicacies of Edinburgh (Buckfast and battered mars bars?). We’re older, not necessarily wiser, and we’re ready to tackle some of the big issues: Zoom seminar etiquette, how to politely tell your dissertation supervisor that you’re having a breakdown, and tips for seducing the flat across the road with only post-it notes and banter. All this, AND great tunes that your friends will be secretively Shazam-ing?! Tune in — it’s not like you’ll be leaving the house anyway.

    Episode 2: Cold In The House

    It's autumn. The leaves are falling, and so is the temperature. Join us on this cold Thursday night if you too are sick of seeing your breath in the flat. You might not be able to see your friends in the flesh, but hey, we're coming at you loud and proud with promises of great tunes and some (questionably) great chat. This week, we're getting back into the swing of things, vowing to work on our communication skills and developing our identities as Hot and Known women. If you're curious as to why the thought of a wedding might give Iz the ick, or want the optimum results from a 10,000 food calorie challenge, then there's only one place to be. Hint: it's with us.

    Episode 6: Embarrazzed In The House

    Episode 6 and it's time to get real. This week, Alex and Iz discuss the top 10 most embarrassing (or embarAZZing, if you're cultured) and inevitable things to happen to them as students. If you too are victim of the cobbles in George Square, have swapped a tutorial to avoid speaking to your tinder match, and may or may not have been kicked out of Edinburgh's finest nightclubs, then you'll find a warm affinity here. And if not, then at least you can have a good laugh at the (arguably iconic) misfortunes of others.
