Love and lust without the liquor. A show for people navigating recovery and relationships.
Host Anna Wolfe, a journalist and several years into recovery from alcohol and an eating disorder, is joined by special guests and experts to unpick, unlearn and better understand the turbulent nature of addiction, and how it affects our relationships. Anna probes those in the know to show that we can all have it better, however dark things have been in the past.
Anna’s not a therapist, a guru, or an expert - just a woman who thought it would be nice to share these things and now deeply regrets it.
Russell & Lindsey Kane: I made her coat into a muff
On a mission to tackle Britain's intimacy crisis, Russell and Lindsey Kane are helping couples find their spark, rekindle desire, and revive their sex lives. In short, they're here to get Britain banging again.
They sit down with Anna to talk about love, lust, and life as a couple. From the moment they met while Russell was using Lindsey’s jacket on stage to fake-wax his fanny, to Lindsey's long-standing crush on Rita Ora, to where they find themselves 12 years later.
This is a candid, funny, and horny AF convo. P.S. We also talk about serious stuff like ADHD and alcohol, the manosphere and sex education.

Seye Adelekan: Getting through break ups sober
This week, we’re bringing you something special. Firstly, Seye Adelekan, aka Gorillaz bassist and friend of the show, is back. Secondly, he and Anna both went through breakups after recording in season one, so they’re putting their pain out there all in the name of helping people to get through heartbreak sober. There will also be a biology lesson, a masterclass on songs to get intimate with, and a look into the ghosts of Anna’s ChatGPT past.
Expect answers to questions like
How do you know when you’re ready to date again?
How do you get through painful feelings sober?
Why did he agree to come on for a second time?
