In this episode, the girls discuss the benefits and downsides of seasonal dating and whether or not they're cut out for it. When do you start looking? When do you end it? Do you meet the family? Really, it's a dating minefield that we are all woefully inept to deal with...

This week on On The Shelf, we're getting down and dirty with some classic Christmas arguments - Do Brussels sprouts belong on Christmas dinner? Is the strawberry creme really the best quality street? Is Elf on the Shelf really just a dystopian tool to make your children more accepting of surveillance by the state? We're playing fast and loose with logic in this Devil's Advocate game - good, wholesome, slightly alcohol-fuelled, festive fun!!

This week on On The Shelf Podcast, we begin our #dontbenaughtybenicechallenge ! Head over to our Instagram (@ontheshelfpodcast) for more information!Obviously, that's not all we discuss. We talk about how our standards drop in winter (all the food please), how newly shaved legs sliding between fresh sheets make you feel like a naked dolphin, how upset we are that German markets aren't around this year and how we really really really need to go out out (we blame Confetti by Little Mix for igniting this). We explore the highs and lows of Christmas parties including the social acceptability of taking Spanx off in public and how drunk doctors dance "expressionatively" (it's a new word ok). Just to round off the festive fun, we talk about the best gifts we've ever gotten, Christmas movies, and when Christmas games go wrong - including a brief game of 2 truths 1 lie which reveals a lot about what Emily is like when she's travelling...

This week, the girls chat about body image and what it means to them. Rachel discovers the horrible truth about second puberty, Emily reveals which movie character she feels she looks most like (definitely not who you would expect) and Vic comes clean about her hair self-consciousness that may or may not have been caused by a young Emily.... Also, is it acceptable to go to bed with biscuits?

This week, the girls turn their attention to dating... Or lack thereof. We find out how Vic reacts to a minigolf date that isn't going her way (clue: not well), Rachel's formula to the best dates ever and Emily's technique for finding partners....and eating corn on the cob. Lots of fun (and wine) was had making this one - enjoy!

This week, the girls get onto the topic of the TV show that shaped their lives... And created so many unrealistic expectations! We discuss our favourite episodes, what characters we'd be, and whether or not Rachel (Green) should have got on the plane. Also featuring the other sisters, Louise and Katherine. 

This week, you finally get to meet the last two cousins - Louise and Katherine! We discuss everything about Hallowe'en, from a brief history (thanks Kath) to whether we go scary or slutty... or both!

This week, we're talking about all things girl power! We get right to the heart of the issues facing feminists today...  Do girls support girls enough? Can you be girly and still be "one of the lads"? Do you need a successful career to be a strong independent woman? Have Disney princesses changed for the better? Should we be travelling alone? What Spice Girl would we all be? Truly, this is cutting edge stuff...

In this episode, the girls discuss their careers and whether or not they think they're successful. They chat about what it's like to be working girls (not like that), meeting society's expectations of career success, passion projects and Rachel talks about her most, ahem, "unique" job interview...

Movies and TV obviously played a huge part in all of our lives, but what are our favourites? How do we think they've influenced us? And how have they changed from when we were kids to now? Find out now!

As you go through your 20s and into your 30s, it seems inevitable that people will start tapping their watches and making vague references to biological clocks... But what do we think about babies? Are we maternal? Would we freeze our eggs? Do we think we're responsible enough to care for a needy sack of potatoes? Find out now!

In this two-part episodes, we discuss our experience with the ongoing pandemic and the general shitshow that has been 2020 so far. We debate the best lockdown exercise (and how not to break your foot), Blitz spirit, lockdown loneliness, and whether or not the Nokia 3310 really is the best Nokia.

Welcome to Episode 2 of On The Shelf! Get the first glimpse into our very exciting dating lives - sarcasm may be applicable here... Though we have three very different views, attitudes, and practices when it comes to dating, we are all undeniably, On The Shelf. 

Welcome to On The Shelf! In this first episode, we introduce you to who we are and give you a taste of what to expect in future episodes.
