In today's social media-inspired episode, we spend 40 minutes lamenting the role of social media in our lives... The 'ins and outs' format sees us discuss themes ranging from making intentional decisions to comparing men to guinea pigs (you get me!?). Introspection is key, but at what cost? Why did we feel more grown-up at sixteen than we do now? Join us as we reflect on new phases of life, feelings of stagnation and developing meaningful relationships.SOCIALS:Instagram, TikTok, Facebook: @you.get.me.podInquiries via DM.Intro creds: https://bensound.com Hosted on Acast.

Do you feel frustratingly limited by party politics? Were you a radical at 15? Can you even say anything anymore? If you resonate with any of these questions, we get you! Join us in today's episode where we discuss topics ranging from identity politics and mapping political identity to phone addictions and wokes and jokes. This episode is slightly reminiscent of our older episodes, as whilst our relationship with the world may have changed, our personal politics largely have not!SOCIALS:Instagram, TikTok, Facebook: @you.get.me.podInquiries via DM.Intro music: https://bensound.com Hosted on Acast.

This episode appeals to all the self-proclaimed girls' girls, who can't quite believe the value of the female friendships in their lives but feel like hypocrites every time a man clambers into the picture - WE GET YOU! Centering discussions of meaningful relationships, identity and desire, this episode seeks to banish the shame and feminine notions of passivity blocking women from living full, unapologetic lives. This conversation is steered through anecdotes about men (shock, horror!) and metaphors about 'emotional hostesses' running around crowded kitchens with aprons tied so tightly that they aren't allowing themselves to breathe - you get me?

Is it ever justifiable to harbour contempt towards men as a women? Is it an unfair generalisation to make, and where does it stem from? Today's episode discusses the concept of reactionary misandry, the impacts of sexual harassment from a young age and heteronormative dating. Sometimes you have to admit the manhaters have a bit of a point - you get me?SOCIALS:Instragram, TikTok and Facebook: @you.get.me.podInquiries via DM.Intro music: https://bensound.com Hosted on Acast.

Open your pantries and grab the pickle jar, because it's time to talk about girl dinner! Today's episode delves into the way social media diminishes women through seemingly harmless 'trends', the consequent normalisation of feeling bad and how this might affect your relationships. We discuss the notion of reclaiming reductionist stereotypes and the potential risks of encouraging poor lifestyle choices under the guise of being silly little girls driven into the pits of hell by the internet - you get me?SOCIALS:Instagram, TikTok and Facebook: @you.get.me.podInquiries via DM.Intro music: https://bensound.com Hosted on Acast.

Change is good... which is why we have a new look! Join us in today's rebranded podcast as we talk all things change, letting go and developing your best self. If you are holding on to emotions and concepts that no longer serve you, we hope you can take something from our anecdotes and experiences. We should probably stop replaying cringe scenarios in our heads before we go to sleep - you get me?SOCIALS:Instagram/TikTok/Facebook - you.get.me.podInquiries via DM.Intro music: https://bensound.com Hosted on Acast.

This episode, we are broadcasting straight from the car (congrats Elif for passing!) as we discuss self-consciousness, growing up as a woman with a body and the anxiety this can provoke. We raise the topics of gratitude and passion as we navigate a world permeated by internalised misogyny and search for the love wherever we can.

We welcome you back to Opinionated and Underrated as we discuss the navigation of relationships as a woman, the superficiality of male friendships and the importance of human connection. As the effects of patriarchy are all-pervasive, it is no wonder that our daily interactions are affected by femininity and the power imbalance it is a part of. After a leave of absence, we are overjoyed to be back and hope you are too! You can get involved in the conversation via our social medias:Instagram/Tiktok/Facebook: @opinionatedandunderratedTwitter: @CharlotteElifIntro creds: https://bensound.com Hosted on Acast.

To mark the 2-year anniversary of 'Opinionated and Underrated', we delve into the shameful culture of victim blaming surrounding reporting. While we would like to think we are proof of a new 'progressive age', our generation has proved us otherwise, and so we discuss the problematic protection of predators and how to identify this dynamic. Boundaries, victimisation and violation remain ungendered, and we explore how the patriarchy can interact with this experience. To those concerned that they may be a victim of violation to any extent, please reach out to the relevant organisations (below). You are not alone.RESOURCESReporting Assault:https://www.gov.uk/report-rape-sexual-assaulthttps://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/family/gender-violence/rape-and-sexual-assaulthttps://www.gov.uk/report-teacher-misconductSupport:https://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/guides-to-support-and-services/abuse/https://www.supportline.org.uk/problems/rape-and-sexual-assault/https://www.youngminds.org.uk/young-person/coping-with-life/abuse/SOCIALSInsta: opinionatedandunderratedGmail: [email protected] Credit: https://bensound.com Hosted on Acast.
