Do Dress Codes At Work Make A Difference?!

Are any boots truly – truly – made for running, though?! We're talking business dress codes on today's episode, inspired by Beatrice's interview, for which she has to dress in "business professional" attire. And we are… confused. Any and all job interview advice welcome by the way – ESPECIALLY if you're someone who works in recruitment or conducts a lot of job interviews… is there such thing as an interview-attire-related red flag?!? If so, what is it??? TELL US EVERYTHING. DM us on Instagram @n...

Rosemary's Birthday is Coming Up! But Does She Even Want a Party?

Rosemary's birthday is coming up and she's not sure whether she wants to do anything – while Beatrice always wants to do something for her birthday, but only if the soundtrack is right. Plus: does Rosemary really want these Ugg boots ? And Beatrice reads an excerpt from her teenage diary wherein she shows her true colours. ** DM us on Instagram @notwithoutmysister , or email us on [email protected].

Golden Globes 2024: We Talk Style

Oh, and other things. Awards season is upon us and you know what that means: open season on discussing the outfits we loved, hated, didn't understand and simply wish would go away. From frills to fascinators, sleek tailoring to embroidered vulvas, we've got the low down on the style at the Golden Globes. ** DM us on Instagram @notwithoutmysister , or email us on [email protected].

Rules to Live By (According to Us)

When it comes to rules to live by, it turns out that not a single Guardian journalist is right about, well, anything! Rosemary reveals her one true talent, Beatrice once again brings up blow jobs (so vulgar) and we decide what Dr Dad is truly good at.

147 – SPOILER ALERT: We're Talking About Santa (Baby)

This is not the episode to listen to with your Santa-fan kids – it's the episode where we discuss our families' Christmas traditions, detail what, exactly, we expect in our stockings and whether or not we felt betrayed when we found out the cold, hard, truth about jolly St Nick. ** DM us on Instagram @notwithoutmysister , or email us on [email protected].

146 and a Half – Give Us Some Credit!

We're talking about the wild wild west of the American credit system – and Rosemary is talking about the wild wild west of her credit card collection. It's not her fault! America sucks you right in and spits you right out! P.S. After some belated research, we have discovered that you must be 18 to get a credit card (with someone co-signing for you) in the US. ** DM us on Instagram @notwithoutmysister , or email us on [email protected].

146 – What do Dunnes and Prada Have in Common?

Beatrice has been unemployed since January – and it's not for lack of interviewing! She's applied for 200+ jobs, which means rewriting her cover letter and redoing her CV 200+ times, a trauma no human should have to endure. We talk about job applications, interviews, interviewing red flags, the day Rosemary walked out of the induction portion of a new job… and more! ** DM us on Instagram @notwithoutmysister , or email us on [email protected].

145 – Should We Be Keeping Our Kids Offline?!

Rosemary once had a very strong opinion on this but, as with all other things, she's mellowed with age. Beatrice wonders what's the point in blanking out your kids' faces if your social media is set to private, and, above all else, we wonder what kind of social media stage mom Blaire Mac Cabe would have been. ** DM us on Instagram @notwithoutmysister , or email us on [email protected].

Out of Office: (author) Sophie White's little black book

Sophie White met her husband way too young – or so she says, meaning she missed out on the "fun" (? questionable) of Tinder, Bumble and Hinge. But she likes him a lot, so it's probably okay. (But she'd still like a little hall pass and thinks all bisexuals should get one.) Follow Sophie on Instagram @sophwhitewhoop or check out her full bibliography on her website, here .
