Welcome to ‘Should I Delete That?’, and our first episode of 2022!

The girls turn to life coach Jacqueline Hurst for some fantastic tips on how to become less reactive to criticism, and they discuss the importance of feeling your feelings fully. In the final segment, Em and Alex share listeners’ embarrassing stories, and even let slip some zingers of their own…

In this episode of ‘Should I Delete That?’ Em and Alex talk to the lovely Holly Hagan about her drastic shift in perspective when it comes to diet culture. Holly recalls the early abuse she received from trolls and the media, who put pressure on her to change her appearance but then judged her when she did so. She chats about the importance of having the space to make mistakes online and learn from them. The girls also get candid about marriage, contraception mishaps and even peeing in the shower!

It’s a biggie this week! Em and Alex chat to none other than Jameela Jamil about the portrayal of women in the media. Jameela recounts her own experiences of being demonised online, and reflects on the ways that women have been taught to tear each other down. She talks about her attempts to buck this trend, and her mission to make I Weigh a non-judgmental space in which people can learn and grow. On top of all this, Em shares the difficulties of wedding-planning as a feminist, and Alex confesses to a Candy Crush addiction...

On the release of this episode, it didn’t feel right to ignore or fail to address the tragic, heartbreaking developments in Ukraine.

Depending on our schedules, we often pre-record our episodes before they goes live and for this reason, we haven’t acknowledged the devastating events that are currently unfolding in this upcoming episode.  

While we’re still not entirely sure what we can do to help in even the smallest way, we are currently speaking with trusts and charities on how best to bring more light to the situation and share with you. Unfortunately, time isn’t always on our side and we haven’t been able to make this happen as quickly as we would have hoped. 

We’re sending love out to everyone and hope that we can help direct you to channels that share the facts on the situation and also what we as individuals can do to help.

This week, we grill Dr. Joshua Wolrich on common dieting misconceptions. He busts myths about sugar, gluten, diet coke and even microwaves...

This week, Alex and Em interviewed Candice Brathwaite for their first ever live episode! The recording took place on International Women's Day at George's FENOMENAL festival, a day dedicated to celebrating and redefining femininity. Candice talks about childbirth and how, as a black woman, her concerns were dismissed and she was almost fatally mistreated, an all too common experience that is explored further in her first book I Am Not Your Baby Mother (link below). The girls also explore And Just Like That, the pitfalls of comparison and, of course, Candice's incredible style...

This week has been a tough one for Em and Al since hearing that their friend, Dame Deborah James, is now receiving end-of-life care for her battle with cancer. Em pops in to say a few words about Deb, and we encourage you to donate the cost of a drink (the girls reckon a rosé, as you will hear!) to the Bowelbabe Fund to raise money for Cancer Research UK.

The girls have the honour of being graced by feminist royalty, Laura Bates. Laura is the author of now six books including her latest, Fix The System Not The Women. Although troubling and shocking, Laura's message is filled with hope and optimism for future generations to work and fight towards equality.

This week, we've got a slightly different episode that saw us take the podcast into central London to join the Women’s Equality Party as they Marched On The Met.

When we initially contacted Patsy Stevenson, we thought this would be a standard interview week, but then we realised that there was much more that needed to be shared. Patsy attended the Sarah Everard vigil on Clapham Common in March 2021; she quickly became synonymous with the arrests that took place that day, carried out by police who saw the vigil as a breach of covid regulations. Her face was suddenly everywhere, the face of the unrest that happened when women's attempts to mourn were crushed.

The story is bigger than this though. After Patsy shared her thoughts on what really happened that day, we followed her to Trafalgar Square to join a protest against institutional misogyny and racism within the police. We heard from some incredible women there, and wanted to share their thoughts with you.

The speakers you heard from today were:

Patsy Stevenson

Mandu Reid

Marvina Eseoghene Newton

Jenn Selby

Chantelle Lunt

Dawn Butler

Bell Ribeiro Addy

Miss Yankey

Southall Black Sisters

Also, we suggest checking out Sistah Space and their work on Valerie's Law.

Jac’s back… another emergency call to our resident coach Jacqueline Hurst. This week, Em opens up about her slip into checking online forums. She talks to Jacqueline about how it has really impacted her self esteem, and Jac helps dissect exactly why. This isn’t only for people who, on the off chance, may find themselves being spoken about on a forum, but for anyone who has ever been criticised. Jacqueline wants to show you how to not let it impact you, and as Al sees it, how you can use your skin as a barrier against negativity.

In a slightly switched format to usual, the girls discuss snapping gussets, foul moods and why we should all #PrayForDave at the end of the episode...

This week the girls chat to fashion and lifestyle influencer Sophie Milner. They deep dive into the contentious topic of surgery, coming away with potentially more questions than answers. Sophie has been open about her surgical procedures online, something that Em and Alex applaud, but does it mean that everyone in her position should be just as open?

The podcast goes on tour again with the girls on holiday. They talk geography, kayaking and the red room…

This week the girls chat to iconic couple Shaaba and Jamie. We hear their love story: from being best friends, to Jamie coming out as trans, to him professing his love for Shaaba. Due to Shaaba’s family having problems with their relationship, they had to make some pretty bold commitments to one another at a young age. Em can't wait to adapt their gorgeous love story into a film! Would suggest staying until the end to hear a pretty brilliant outtake.

The girls join us from the Isle of Man and talk about mental health, grief and puffins…

She was put on a diet, and then, her mother wrote about that experience in Vogue. Now, at 18, she shares with Alex and Em how this has affected her self confidence and body image. We are excited to hear your thoughts on this conversation! DM and email us to share.

Em has a lot of awkwards to share, and Al suddenly realises that a lot of people actually listen to the pod: that’s you people!

After sharing a clip of Tyra Banks telling a America’s Next Top Model contestant to eat a burger without the bread, Alex was sent a DM. The message was from that very model, Keenyah Hill, who had been essentially told to eat less by Tyra on cycle 4 of ANTM. Keenyah, 19 at the time, had also been compared to an elephant by the judges, and edited in a way that exaggerated how much and how often she was eating. Keenyah wanted to share her version of events, how being on ANTM affected her life and what it taught her about the real world of modelling. Now a pose coach and model mentor, Keenyah teaches aspiring models how to be confident in themselves and let that confidence carry them through.

This week, the girls chat to Soma Sara, author and founder of Everyone’s Invited: a forum for people to anonymously share their experiences of sexual assault and harassment. Through opening up that space, Soma was inundated with stories from survivors and has dedicated her time to assist in making a change. She shares her belief in the importance of empathy, compassion and understanding, and how this, above all else, is the key to making that change. With a rapidly changing world that is increasingly focussed online, and where 9 out of 10 school girls are pestered to send nudes, this change couldn’t come quicker.

Jules started out in fashion and fell into spray tanning, and while his relationship with his own body suffered, he was uplifting women day in and day out as they entered the booth for a bit of fun and a glimmer of hope. Jules shares his own body confidence journey, and how that was influenced by the thousands of women he spray tanned over the years. He certainly still has the ability to uplift and put one at ease, and we hope you feel that from this conversation.

This week, Em and Alex talk to former Love Island contestant Andrew Le Page. His very public misstep and subsequent apology went viral as he uttered “I sucked on her tits or whatever…”. These simple words sent the general public into a tailspin while Andrew, living in Mallorca with the UK’s most eligible singles and no access to the outside world, was completely oblivious to the frenzied response. He shares what this was like, opens up about his relationship with Tasha, and enlightens the girls with some production secrets (our fave!).

This week, in the run up to Christmas, Em and Al speak have decided to turn the spotlight onto Ukraine. With the war still raging on, the girls wanted to understand more about what was happening on the ground and what we can all do to help. First, they spoke to Ukrainian lawyer Nadiya Bilous who is on the board of Dattalion. Dattalion is an open-source database containing Ukraine war footage and a list of verified eyewitnesses to the invasion. Founded and run by women, it was created to fight disinformation. They then spoke to Liza, a musician who escaped Ukraine (and coincidentally lives with previous guest Lizzie Pickering in the UK) about the emotional impact of fleeing her home.

Her ex, sex offender and fellow reality TV star, Stephen Bear, non-consensually recorded him and Georgia having sex. He spread the video across the internet, subsequently profiting from it, which became an all-consuming battle for Georgia as she fought to not only remove the video, but to have Bear convicted. The girls get the details of this betrayal, the brave steps Georgia took to prosecute and how it felt when she finally saw justice.

This week, Alex and Em talk to Iranian feminist activist Samaneh Savadi. The Islamic Republic of Iran has been experiencing turmoil as a result of the government’s misogynistic regime and the murders of many protestors and dissenters.

After noticing their story views drop significantly whenever they spoke out about this issue, the girls wanted to bring a deeper awareness of it to themselves and to others by talking to Samaneh about her understanding and experience. Samaneh herself cannot go home to Iran out of fear of being arrested, or worse, for speaking out and campaigning for women’s rights. She suggests that one of the best ways to help women in Iran is by continuing to speak out, so hopefully this episode gives you the impetus to do so.

This week on the podcast, the girls talk to Sarah de Lagarde. In September 2022, Sarah was involved in a freak accident that would change her life forever. After falling asleep on the tube, Sarah woke up and realised that she had slept past her stop. Like anyone in that situation would, she promptly got up and raced over towards another train that would get her home. As she did, she slipped on the wet platform and the unimaginable happened: she tripped and ended up falling down onto the tracks. Sarah lost her arm and her leg after the train took off, and with sheer determination she shouted for help by saying “My name is Sarah, I don’t want to die”. Twenty minutes later, after what must have felt like an eternity, someone finally heard her and got her the help she needed. Almost four months on from the accident, Sarah joined Alex and Em in the studio to discuss the incident and how she has managed to get through it all so gracefully.

This week on the podcast, Em and Alex talk to The Office star, Lucy Davis. Lucy shares her story from performing skits to her friends at school to facing scrutiny in the press due to her appearance. She details her experience with eating disorders and body dysmorphia, and how now, she has learnt to accept herself. Her wit and wisdom inspires the girls, so much so that they suggest she should become a life coach!

In the GBA, Alex is joined by a not so special guest…
