EPISODE 6

I'm in (Misery)

Your girls are back with a fan recommended book this week, Stephen King's classic; Misery. A far cry from Briony's fantasy realm, this book delves into the brutal torture of author, Paul Sheldon, at the hands of his number one fan, Annie Wilks.

There's amputations, rat blood, ride-on mowers to the face and a lot of uncomfy feelings. Listen along with hosts Briony, Georgia, Ellie and Claire while they work their way through this fever dream of a book.

EPISODE 5

It Ends Georgia (It Ends With Us)

Strap in all bits and pieces for this week’s ep because we’re covering the soul destroying It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover.

A story of love, courage and “naked truths”; hosts Georgia, Briony, Ellie and Claire hold group therapy while discussing Lily’s heartbreaking story. We hold the space for you to feel all the feelings while drowning our own in too much alcohol.
