Home Truths

CCUK

Home life is messy, expensive, emotional, and rarely matches the version you scroll past on your feed. Home Truths is a proper chat about all of it. From living with your parents and dreaming of the leap, to mortgages, marriage, the quiet panic of milestones, and finding a local dog walking group you actually like. Nav brings the lived experience of an ex-estate agent, renter, homeowner and landlord. Alex brings the view from the family home, working out when (and whether) to make the move. Between them, two generations of honest perspective on the stuff your group chat half-talks about and nobody posts. Sit back, get comfy, and join us for the real Home Truths. 📩 DM us @simplelifehomes — we read everything.

    "What are you doing here?" Family matters on Home Truths

    In episode 5 of Home Truths, Nav and Alex thought they were recording a chat about family. What they got instead was two surprise visits, a lot of tears, and stories neither of them wanted told on the internet. Alex's mum Jackie turned up. Nav's cousin Michael turned up. Nobody warned them. They get into: – The ASDA freezer moment that still makes Jackie cry laughing – Nav's most embarrassing crush and Alex's Harry Styles moment – Being raised by a strong, independent mum — and why Jackie wanted her girls to never need a man – Jackie's cancer journey, and the one thing she was worried about the night she got diagnosed – Losing a parent, residual trauma, and why the aftermath is worse than the event – Middle-child syndrome (Alex is passionate about this one) – Being the "different" cousin in an Indian family — and the childhood comment Nav still remembers – The infamous Manchester Valentine's Day disaster involving a locked door, 30,000 steps in pyjamas, and £500 worth of contact lenses being drunk Plus a Home Truth reveal involving a wheelchair, a flight of stairs, and Nav's sister doing it twice. And a special video message from Nav's uncle and auntie somewhere on a cruise ship. 📩 DM us your stories or topic requests: @simplelifehomes ⭐ Loving the show? A 5-star review genuinely helps us out.

    Going viral wasn't the plan: life online, unfiltered - S2 Ep3

    Going viral was never the plan... In episode 3 of Home Truths, Nav and Alex unpack the messy, accidental, sometimes wonderful reality of building a life online. Nav's leftover roast pie hit 4.5 million views overnight. Alex's spa day vlog took off while she had the notifications turned off. Neither of them set out to do this, and neither of them is willing to pretend it's all curated brand trips and free stuff. They get into: What it's actually like being recognised in public (and the awkward John Lewis moment) Why Nav gets criticised for portion sizes and Alex still feels judged on Instagram The Brooklyn Beckham family drama and what it says about privilege The proposed under-16 social media ban (and why they're both for it) Being a "comfort" for strangers vs. a target for trolls The cost of cultural criticism when you come from a community that doesn't always have your back Dream collabs (Gordon Ramsay's butter chicken is involved) And the truth about what they really thought of each other when they first met Plus a Home Truth involving a Ryanair flash mob in Liverpool One, and the return of 'The Neighbour Dispute Court' judging real disputes from parcel-collecting nightmares to recipe theft (Nav's mum is in the dock). 📩 Got a story or a topic for us?
