Hello EIClaudiaWinklemans…. Your diva chaperones are back to guide you through this week in pop culture. This week we’ve all been loving movies… from Sheep Detectives to horror classics - we have not left any genres untouched. The Sad Girl community has been celebrating this week - as the Primavera Sound 2027 line-up has been released, and it’s a real feast of gorgeous gloomy pop girlies. Will we

Hello EICurmudgeons… In the midst of some sitcom-worthy activities in our personal lives, we’re back with another episode breaking down the biggest- and weirdest- pop culture stories. We’re heading to the Congo Basin (not literally, we hope) as British survivalist Ash Dykes prepares to embark on a 700km kayak expedition down the Sangha river. With equal peril we’ve also decided to discuss Taylor S

Hello EICucumbers… We’re all back and we’ve peeled Beth away from Vanderpump Rules to record this week’s episode of the podcast for you… We’re piling in on the internet’s hot debate of the week - is it unprofessional to bring an iced coffee to a job interview? Matcha girls, prepare to be outraged… because we have strong opinions on this one. EmRata has joined the ever growing list of celebrities a

Pick up, EICallers… It’s your favourite podcast calling! In this week’s Everything In Conversation, we’re asking: is cold calling your friends the answer to sustaining a healthy friendship? In response to a new Cut piece by Kathleen Walsh titled ‘I Should Be Allowed to Cold-Call My Friends’, we’re pondering how and why we seem to be so averse to calling our friends out of the blue to have a good o

Hello EICave Divers… It’s been a WEEK of bizarre stories and we’re here to (attempt to) guide you through them… In the wake of the news that all of Ed Sheeran’s support acts have quit his tour in solidarity with Macklemore and the Palestinian people, we discuss the power of taking a stand in the face of billionaires. The HYROX Poo has been everywhere across our timelines this week. How well has th

Hello EICritters… In today’s Everything In Conversation - we’re discussing North West. In August of this year, Dazed released images of their Autumn 2026 issue, which features North, the 13-year-old daughter of reality TV star, brand owner and actress Kim Kardashian and musician Kanye West, as their cover star. When we’ve spoken about North on EIC previously, we uniformly agreed that there was som

Hello EICowboys… It’s Beth and Ruchira steering good ship EIC this week as Oenone is taking a little break. Ruchira is turbo jet-lagged, and Beth is in a post-Cornwall haze… perfect podcasting conditions all round tbh. We catch up about Ruchira’s trip to the Big Apple and Beth has FINALLY seen The Odyssey. Was her teenage classist self impressed with Nolan’s interpretation of Homer’s epic? We fill

Hello EICiggies, Is smoking cool again? Was it ever? With smoking once again at the epicentre of celebrity chic we asked YOU whether or not you think people are picking up their lighters and throwing away their cares. And if so, are we experiencing a trickle down from celebs which is reversing decades of public health campaigns? We also reflect on our own relationships with smoking, how our attitu

Hi EICelebrities… Today’s we’re #gifting you an influencer special. Once the guardians of the internet, are we now experiencing a rising tide of anti-influencer angst? Is it sexist to find them annoying? And just how relevant are they any more? First up we share the creators and influencers who we love to follow. Ruchira loves following Navy Ahluwalia (@naviahluwalia) & Savannah Sachdev (@savannah

Hi there EICrocodiles! Today’s bonus episode is dedicated to the myth, the legend… Jordan AKA The Pricey AKA Katie Price. In July, Louis Theroux’s production company released a four-part documentary series offering a retrospective on the 30 years Price has spent in the public eye, and reflecting on the fallout of living a life seemingly dedicated to headline culture. For some she’s a a national tr

Hello EICriminals! Today, we’re taking a stroll down bonkers alley to answer the question that you’ve all been asking… when is a shoe not a shoe? We’re really living in a foot guy’s world rn… We share our heartache following the death of Dolly Parton and reflect on the incredible legacy she’s left behind. Keep your ears peeled for Beth’s *very* special tribute. Are you kinda sick of kinda chic? Th

Hello EICrushes! This week's episode is brought to you by Hinge, who are helping us to get deep into discussions about romantic advice, taking risks in love and 'saying the thing' (whatever that thing may be). First up we're chatting about dating advice. Where does the impulse come from to seek it and give it, who do we personally trust and can advice still be helpful even if you don't take it? Ne

Hello EICroquettes! We are so back and Oenone has fallen for a new conspiracy, it’s like we’ve never been away. We’re bursting to the seams with two weeks of what we’ve been loving: from memes to literature - as always, we’re across it all. Enemy of the pod Sam Altman has found himself as the subject of a hilarious (and believable to some) series of memes created by Frosted Jake. Is this the ultim

Hello EICritics, earlier this year we had the pleasure of speaking with author and podcaster, Caro Claire Burke. Since then the book has only grown in popularity and sales. It really has been the book of 2026. A quick synopsis of Yesteryear: Natalie is a trad wife influencer with hundreds of thousands of followers. As far as her audience knows, Natalie loves her farmhouse, her well-behaved childre

Happy Wednesday! As you'll no doubt know by now, the three of us have been off the EIClock for the last couple of weeks for our yearly break- and we've been using the opportunity to dig through the archives and re-release some old favs, all timers & under-appreciated gems. This week we're going back two years to when the three of us got to together to discuss fertility, PCOS and egg freezing. Back

Hello EICucumbers, we have another gem from the archive. This is the accompanying episode to our double beauty special from 2024. Has much changed in two years? It feels like the pursuit of youth has only become more ubiquitous since then, but rather than replacing thinness, that old chestnut has also come back to haunt us all. Can you believe the impact of GLP-1s is just two years? It's quite som

Hello EICorn-Cobs! Happy hump day! As we mentioned last week we're on a rare (but needed!) summer break from the podcast, and using this time to dig into the archive and rerelease some gems from 2024. This week is a return to a deep dive episode where we talked about our previous Hot Girl summers and the impact of the cost of living crisis on romance. How are we meant to find the loves of our live

EIChow Chows, we have a lovely throwback episode for you. Real EIC stans will remember we did our first-ever double episode on beauty two years ago! From Andy’s bangs in The Devil Wears Prada to Trinny and Susannah, glow ups were the most exciting film trope millennials like us grew up on. But how does it feel when we're all now looking at our reflections like a before image thanks to social media

Hello EIC, this week we're taking a look at the return of two cancelled women from pop culture. Also we are very sorry for any audio issues. We were blessed to be recording IRL at the Homewood Hotel and Spa (tysm to them!). Influencer, author and infamous 'scammer' Caroline Calloway made a public return to discourse last week with a new piece detailing her experience on Ozempic. Known for flower c
