Lily Allen’s ‘West End Girl’, Why ENM Isn’t for Us & the Wild Baby-Formula TikTok Experiment - Episode 18

this week’s episode is chaotic in the best way. we talk about lily allen’s new album west end girl and then spiral straight into modern dating trends, specifically ethical non-monogamy. spoiler: we don’t buy it, we’ve never bought it, and we explain exactly why it doesn’t work for us.


we also talk about that viral tiktok social experiment where a woman calls multiple churches asking for baby formula and gets rejected.


if you like pop culture, unfiltered opinions, and two neurodivergent women trying to make sense of modern life, this one’s for you.


🎧 topics include:

  • lily allen’s west end girl — first impressions
  • the truth about ENM & why it doesn’t suit everyone
  • monogamy, attachment, and modern dating fatigue
  • the baby-formula church experiment
  • community, care, and double standards
  • the usual tangents, laughter, and existential spirals
