After Work Drinks

We are depressingly not recording this episode from a hotel room in Rome (crying), but there's still a lot on the agenda. From how the maid who's selling Lady Gaga's Golden Globes gown via an online auction got her hands on it in the first place (and why the police were involved), to 'the inbetweeners' of the fashion industry - the models who are neither sample, nor plus size - and why we need more of them. Then, we have our first parental argument over whether kids should be able to express themselves with makeup after Kanye West banned his 6-year-old daughter North West from wearing any and a discussion about Emma Sulkowicz, AKA 'Mattress Girl', the woman who became a campus sexual assault activist in 2014 who now kicks it with the conservatives.You can follow us on Instagram: @afterworkdrinkspodcast or join our closed Facebook group, After Work Drinks Podcast, and we'll love you always if you rate, review and subscribe.

Ciao Bellas, reporting to you live from a hotel in Rome where we've had one too many glasses of cheap prosecco and are listening to ABBA. For our special reuninion episode, we're covering everything from 'She Said' (and why Ashley Judd is a massive legend) to Meghan and Harry's latest media blow-out, Caroline Calloway's rogue tell-all interview and a very hectic Lyft story.

The best scandal of 2019 happened right after we recorded our last episode, but we couldn't not talk about #WagathaChristie, AKA the moment when UK WAG Coleen Rooney publicly called out fellow WAG, Rebekah Vardy, for selling stories about her to The Sun in a Pulitzer Prize-worthy tweet. Plus, AWD went viral thanks to one listener's detective work on Liam Hemsworth's new flame, Ellen DeGeneres and George Bush's hangout and why all of Australia was talking about a poo jogger this week (sorry).

On the (very varied) agenda this week: a deep dive into Travis Scott and Kylie Jenner’s split (and his probable secret girlfriend), the extreme lengths Harvey Weinstein went to to stop the publication of the 2017 NYT expose and the brilliant work of non-fiction we implore you all to read. Plus, our thoughts on Hailey Baldwin’s wedding dress and Miley’s love life before we get serious again to discuss whether the backlash to ‘The Joker’ is really valid. Oh, and let's not forget Grace’s new form of cardio that potentially involves Russian hackers. Pls enjoy with a pinot in hand.

AWD is officially 1! For our first birthday, Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin decided to get hitched, so we dissect the snippets of info we have at the time of recording (still waiting on that dress pic, Hailey). Off the back of the climate strikes and Greta Thunberg's incredible UN speech, we talk about people's ridiculous aversion to change and how our all or nothing attitude towards sustainability and vegetarianism is preventing us from saving the planet. Plus, our first look at Archie Harrison during Meghan and Harry's royal tour of South Africa (spoiler: sore ovaries) and Unbelievable, the Netflix show we can't get enough of.

After a brief (and unplanned, sorry) hiatus, we’re back! First on the agenda, a quick debrief on Milan Fashion Week and Grace’s trip to Shanghai, before we catch up on the (boring) Bachelor finale and the Emmys red carpet. Grace has a few good book and TV recommendations and we’re both OBSESSED with a new podcast that’s being dubbed the female ‘Dirty John.’ Off the back of Tavi Gevinson’s piece on Instagram for The Cut, we talk about growing up in the age of Insta.You can follow us on Instagram: @afterworkdrinkspodcast or join our closed Facebook group, After Work Drinks Podcast.

Izzy made it to the UK alive, but not without consuming copious amounts of Rescue Remedy due to the UK holding her passport hostage. But a few mimosas later, she lands safely and heads straight from the airport to see Queen Phoebe Waller-Bridge in the flesh for ‘Fleabag.’ This week, we catch up on the New Zealand Netflix rom-com that deserves the opposite of an Oscar, the Adnan Syed documentary that confused us both, and, most importantly, the Caroline Calloway expose written by the Instagram influencer turned scammer's former best friend.

Last week's MTV VMAs marked 10 years since Kanye West interrupted Taylor Swift's acceptance speech, kicking off the celebrity feud of the decade. After Izzy rewatched the footage and Grace read a new T Swift profile, we discuss the whole drama, and examine how Taylor Swift, a decade on, may still be missing the point. Plus, is everyone except us and Kirsten Dunst intermittent fasting? She is our new celebrity crush - offering us all a lesson in abandoning vanity (and selling your shit when it doesn't fit you anymore). And on a more serious note: how the palace got dragged into the #MeToo movement and what Prince Andrew's chubby fingers have to do with anything.
