Em & Ad take a look back on their 20’s 🎙 What they learnt, what they did wrong and (if anything) what they did right 🤷🏻‍♂️
The one when we wrap up Season 1...
In our final episode of season 1 we answer the questions you’ve all been dying to know the answers to... Or at least the ones you sent us. We talk about mourning changing friendships during your twenties, one night stand horror stories and what we hope to achieve during the decade that is our thirties! It was a fun little episode to end a fun little series. Thanks to everyone who has listened it’s been the best thing to come out of Covid for us both! But as they say, it’s not goodbye, it’s see you later! (For Season 2)

The one with Sophie Milner...
In our penultimate episode we had the absolute pleasure of chatting to our final guest, the award winning influencer Sophie Milner. We talked about the highs and lows of making it big online, and the pressure to work for free when starting out. Sophie is so refreshingly honest about sex and dating in your twenties, cosmetic surgery and how to maintain a long distance relationship (tough at the best of times) during covid! We had a blast, we hope you will too!

The one about social media...
Everyone is living for everyone else now. They’re doing stuff so they can tell other people about it. I don’t get all that social media stuff. I’ve always got other things I want to do – odd jobs around the house. No one wants to hear about that.” Man of the people Karl Pilkington on the topic we’re discussing this week... Social media!  The good, the bad, and the ugly, from MySpace to TikTok! Our twenties have been filled with social media! With the ever growing platforms difficult to avoid, we discuss the positives and negatives, cancel culture and addiction. The fantastic John Shepherd, co-founder of Social Chaps talks us through the way businesses use social media and whether or not our devices really do listen to us...

The one about sex and dating...
Being single used to mean that nobody wanted you. Now it means you're pretty sexy and you're taking your time deciding how you want your life to be and who you want to spend it with.” In the wise words of Carrie Bradshaw does being single in your twenties mean taking your time in finding ‘the one’... one date and one hook up at a time? This week we talk the highs and lows of dating in your twenties and about sex baby! Do you date with intention, or is the intention simply for good company and one night of fun?

The one about Love and Romance...
In this romantic episode we attempt to talk through the most defining relationships of our twenties. We chat first crushes, first loves, and our I.D.S.T forever and ever, cross our heart and hope to die most everlasting loves. Then the tough stuff... Heartbreak. Along the way, we talk, monogamy and whether or not it’s still relevant in modern society, the most romantic songs ever written, and Emma painfully attempts to educate Adam on what unrequited love is (apparently he’s never been pied...). Basically this is our attempt to showcase the the biggest lessons we’ve learned from our many failed attempts at this business we call love!

The one with Alaw (OnlyFans model)....
As 2020 came to a close, many people reflected on it as a year of losses, however there was one big winner...Only fans. The platform had over 1 million content creators and 50 million registered users as of December 2020, so our assumption is that it may be on some of your radars. But how much do you know about the behind the scenes of this modern day phenomenon? At 23, Alaw Haf is the youngest guest on this season of Thirty Laps. A proud first language Welsh speaker with a 2.1 in Law she’s equal parts brains and beauty, with a coating of raw honesty and confidence to go with it. As a full time Only fans content creator and glamour model, Alaw answered all of the questions that we’ve all been wanting to ask. What’s the strangest request you’ve received? Who are your primary user base? And how long term is only fans as a sustainable career plan? She’s a savvy, head screwed on entrepreneur that we know you will all learn a thing or two from!
