Got a shobby? You know — a short-term hobby for even shorter attention spans that fills the void between doomscrolls. Claire Murphy's hitting the high notes at Pub Choir, Holly’s deep in her Duolingo era, and Em V’s gone old school with a shobby that's like her full-time job now.
We’re also diving headfirst into Other People’s Marriages. After the Victoria Beckham doco dropped, an internet debate exploded about whether David even likes Victoria — so naturally, we’ve got thoughts. Expect a little parasocial self-reflection along the way.
And, one host + one pet = one unexpected argument.
Plus, in reccos: a podcast to binge, something lovely for your face, and a Substack that Em swears will cheer Murphy up.
