The Fringe of It#77 Racing on the Belmond, A Sandwich for the Ages, and The Shrek and Donkey of PodcastingIt’s a week of sandwiches worth leaving the M25 for, big TV moments (which show has taken Charlotte on a journey this week?!) and a very apt realisation that Charlotte and Liv might well be podcastings Shrek and Donkey- the glamour! There is also imperative (and delayed) football chat. Did the Lionesses win? Come to us to find out… last! And a discussion on which supermarket is in fact *the* supermarket for foodies! There’s also a dollop of DMC’s with a big chat about navigating grown up friendships as well as some styling queries i...2025-08-051h 04
The Fringe of It#76 A Parent Trap Summer, The Big Tennis Myth and Jaffa Cakes on the TellyThe throes of summer can only equate to one thing- and that means that dreams of a full Hallie Parker and Annie James summer camp are rife. For Charlotte anyway! (Just sans poker by the lake, of course). For Liv it’s trying to decode tennis post Wimbledon, trying the infamous Ben Shephard sandwich- and of course roping in her dad for a verified Papa P lunchtime sando review. There’s also all important foccacia chat (or, ahem, aerated bread), dip charting and an excellent telly recommendation which includes not only excellent nightwear but jaffa cakes too. Als...2025-07-2959 min
The Fringe of It#75 The Paddington Review, Festival Wristbands and The Joy of Looking Your AgeCheese and wine nights? Jazz festivals? Yes, you did hear correctly! This episode comes to you following a week Nigella would be proud of. We know! Who ARE WE?! We have also rolled into the part of summer where Charlotte becomes a human buckaroo of accessories, and Liv reminisces over hair braid stories she’d sooner forget- oh summer, how we love thee!Heavy breathing to one side (apologies, dear listeners), the girls are also back with the slowest culture reviews in the biz! Forever championing longevity of the arts (or so they’re calling it), hotl...2025-07-2259 min
The Fringe of It#74 The Big Ice Lolly Search of 2025, Sexing Up Salads and The Sample Sale Excuse…It’s the height of summer, and it was only a matter of time before conversations turned to sexing up salads, growing courgettes and Charlotte beginning the search for The Great Ice Lolly of 2025. It’s also a a slippery slope back into sailor dressing- and with Liv having not done her homework (as well as saying ‘like’ approximately 10000 times), it begs the question- did you try your best or were you at a sample sale? There’s also chat of *that* Aidan scene (yes, that one), an Alex Turner impression for the ages and a big discove...2025-07-151h 02
The Fringe of It#73 We're Back, Baby! The bras are off and the girls (ahem, Charlotte and Liv)- are back! Just give Charlotte five minutes to remove her contact lenses please...It's the second comeback tour of the decade, and it's like we never left. No stone is left unturned from the last six months; from Charlotte's great rebrand as Corporate Sue, the burden that comes with being featured on Elton John's Instagram stories, a Leslie Bibb bob (try saying that tipsy) and a measly, but dedicated attempt at being a Come What May™️ girlie. With telly talk covering the cross-country Welsh love...2025-07-081h 09
The Fringe of It#72 The Joy of Awe, Comparison and 2am Crosswords with Gemma StylesWe told you we wouldn't be gone for long, didn't we! This week is a *very* special bonus episode with none other than podcaster, activist, mental health ambassador and writer Gemma Styles. With today being publication day of her debut book, Why Am I Like This? We pulled Gemma into our virtual living room and made sure we covered everything from coping with comparison and the spotlight effect, managing authenticity online, setting boundaries and why being a human is actually pretty hard (and joyful, and weird and wonderful- naturally, but CRIKEY it's tricky sometimes). In a...2024-09-1259 min
The Fringe of It#71 Our Nora Ephron Inbox and See It, Say It, Compliment ItAs Shania Twain once said- looks like we made it! It’s the final episode of the series, and we go out with a big chocolatey bang (without giving anything away… ahem). From car MOT’s resembling Grease (or not), an inbox worthy of a dreamy scene with Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks and a very exciting Blue Peter badge hack (for the first time in TOFI history this *could* be a ‘You Heard it Here FIRST')- there’s a lot to get to your teeth into this week, and that’s before we delve into Have I Got Food For...2024-09-0355 min
The Fringe of It#70 Extreme Culture, A One Woman Monologue and A Very Important DessertIt’s the penultimate episode of series 2, and this week The Fringe of It goes to the Fringe! Taking us on a rollercoaster of culture- it’s a buffet of comedy, crying and cabaret as well as a beautiful one woman monologue about Love is Blind (courtesy of Charlotte, sadly not performed at the Fringe… yet). Charlotte and Liv also delve into pressing matters such as bringing back liquid eyeliner and why women complimenting each other on their outfits is an integral part of serotonin sharing in our society. There’s also pan slammingly good cookies, a dessert we *all* nee...2024-08-2758 minThe Fringe of It#69 A Love is Blind Deep Dive, and a Very Normal Casual Tennis Lesson with Andy MurrayIt’s a late night edition of The Fringe of It this week. And by late night we mean it was recorded at 9pm on Saturday, way past Liv and Charlotte’s bedtimes, resulting in giddiness and the human equivalent of dog zoomies. Liv delves into her mad week which contained: a chic work trip, playing tennis with a certain Wimbledon winner, and a throwback to a childhood phenomenon that she struggled to cope with. Charlotte discusses her recent Vinted haul, the details of which lead to Liv nearly choking on her tea. There’...2024-08-2158 minThe Fringe of It#68 Foot Measuring, Standing Up Snacking, and the Discovery of Silent DiscosWondering about what cereal to buy next? Do nothing until you’ve listened to this episode. Liv discusses her favourite chocolate granolas, and we really get into the merits of a good salad, in particular, the importance of it being well-dressed. Colin from Accounts gets some high praise, and there are some dates for your diary in the form of returning classic TV shows that have got us feeling autumnal in spirit. Liv does a chocolate Marmalade taste test live on air, and we discuss THOSE biscuits from M&S, and the merits of snacking standing up...2024-08-1352 min
The Fringe of It#67 Summers Gateway Reads, Our Lazy Human Summer and Becoming Girls That GrillThis week Charlotte and Liv are looking to the little (and larger) joys of the summer months- with a hot weather medley to get stuck into. Diving straight in with their summer reads and the gateway book that finally rescued Charlotte from her Book Drought 2024, we go from the best reads to the Olympics in one, erm, pole vault and will begin campaigning for pottery painting to be at the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028. There’s also big talk of chemise summer (what else could one possibly be wearing?!), why men simply can’t help themselves arou...2024-08-061h 04

And will Charlotte ever complete another two-step authentication ever again? A week of big questions and phone updates- all alongside Liv’s acting debut and why she never did quite make it to the bright lights of the West End (a question on, well, actually, nobody’s lips). We also delve into the importance of healing our inner teenagers, why complimenting strangers should be our weekly homework and a vision of smokin’ Austin Butler doing bin bag ad...2024-07-3052 min
The Fringe of It#65 An Andrew Scott Summer and Our Quest To Becoming Woman’s WeeklyNostalgia and Anxiety* are back for another catch up, and this week we’re hankering after our very own Andrew Scott summer (Taylor?

Plus, we also veer into old school life advice, the sheer amount that can be done with vinegar and kindly request your Woman’s-Weekly-esque tip offs and recommendations please...2024-07-231h 06
The Fringe of It#64 Entering Our Gardening Era, Writing Fan Fic and Styling Like A SailorAhoy there! Wasting not but a second before delving into grand garden reveals, it’s straight into bulb catch ups before Charlotte *finally* dips her toe into One Day (spoilers and waterworks ahead) and Liv starts fancying herself as a film critic. Is this the end of the Mamma Mia 2 chapter?! Only time will tell!* There’s also an important discussion about weatherproof footwear, a magical Cotswold’s shopping spot and Liv wonders, importantly, if she just simply hasn’t got thick enough skin to be a fashion girlie…As you know, we love to hear from you...2024-07-1646 min
The Fringe of It#63 Primary School P.E, A Matilda Disagreement and The Paddington Campaign TrailFrom Strictly sequins (did…Liv, erm, mention she’d had a birthday?) to primary school P.E- it’s a week of joy shared in all it’s shapes and forms (even if the rules of tennis are still just too complicated for some of us). In exciting news, Charlotte gets deep in pesto-appreciation and we do a *LIVE* (fanfare please!) taste test for Have I Got Food For You?! We also discuss big topics like being a Stanley Cup Girlie™, when Liv accidentally pretended to be E.T and that hour-long Bridgerton scene (yes, that one). As you kn...2024-07-0946 min

We also begin a delayed catch up of the last four years- from children to breakups, there's a lot to cover- but hey, we've got to start somewhere! Also, and most importantly- the jeans we both can't stop wearing (or talking about)- it's big stuff!...2024-07-0237 min
