welcome to the pay attention podcaaaaast!! hosted by bex (@bexblah) and niv (@nivbyrne), two irish girls in their 30s yapping, giggling + realising things on a mic every monday.
do they have different opinions? always. will they agree on dating advice? debatable.
from pop culture to life advice and everything in between. literally. whether it's talking about the quantum field, marketing, confidence building, astrology talk, tactics for playing the sims… no topic is safe from the girlies discussing and dissecting it. will they always make sense? maybe not. but will they make you laugh? 100%
live reacting to coachella, space travels & why your late 20s feel harder than your 30s
girls we are BACK and we have a lot to get into this week 🎙️ bex is turning 32 in less than two weeks and niv just hit 30 — and between them they have decided that your late 20s feel so much harder and more pressured than your 30s, why we put ourselves on timelines that don't serve us, and why the only timeline that matters is your own 💫
we also get into some live updates and opinions on coachella weekend one and why we loved that there was no uniform style this year, irish girlies representing hard, sabrina carpenter absolutely delivering with will ferrell and susan sarandon in a seven minute monologue, and why lauren whelan should just get on the flight and go & anyone policing her for it needs to have a serious word with themselves!!! why do we feel the need to police influencers anyway?
then we get into the important stuff!!! niv stayed up until 1am on a saturday to watch the artemis two spacecraft land safely back on earth and she is calling it her super bowl, project hail mary is the best movie bex has seen in years (bex cried multiple times, niv is seeing it tonight, no spoilers please), niv is actively grieving the estee lauder double wear reformulation and it should be renamed single wear at this point, the ingredient that got removed from basically every full coverage foundation and bex gives her makeup artist recommendations on what foundation samples to try instead, alix earl's real actives skincare launch and the reactive marketing moment we actually loved, and the irish petrol and haulier protests: why disruption is literally the point of a protest and why the government has the power to end it at any time!!!
basically: late 20s pressure, coachella chaos, artemis two, project hail mary, foundation grief & irish government behaviour. you're welcome 💕
we love you so much 💕

the girlies are back!!! aries season, interstellar theories & why carolyn bessette deserved so much better
girls we are BACK and better than ever after a little hiatus (blame the universe, blame mercury retrograde, blame a vomiting bug that had niv nearly hospitalised… anyway)!!! this week we are fully embracing aries season energy, talking about why now is the best time to start something new, bex's roman era, the italian way of life vs the american hustle culture, our thoughts on the love story documentary and why carolyn bessette kennedy deserved so much better, jfk jr dating sarah jessica parker and big being based on them (we did NOT know this), the manosphere documentary and its many problems, secret lives of mormon wives discourse, cancel culture double standards AND bex watched interstellar for the first time last night and has since applied it to her nails popping off as a message from future intelligence and we simply cannot argue with her logic 🪐✨ time isn't linear girlies!! we love you so much thanks for always coming back to us 💕
