Friendship Chemistry is the podcast where two Gloucestershire besties, Alivia McClung and Hannah Gallardo, chat life, laugh at their own bad takes, and occasionally stumble into advice worth keeping.
They first bonded in secondary school science class back in 2015, and after navigating their teens, early twenties — and even a year-long fall out — they’ve come back stronger (and with plenty of stories to tell). Expect gossip, oversharing, advice you maybe shouldn’t follow, and the kind of honest banter that comes from a friendship that’s been tested and rebuilt.
Basically? It’s chemistry you can’t fake.

Welcome back to Friendship Chemistry with your hosts, Hannah & Alivia!
In this episode, we’re taking it back to our university years — the highs, the lows, and the absolute chaos that came with studying through COVID.
From sleeping through online lectures to lockdown loneliness, we reflect on how that strange, uncertain time shaped who we are today.
We also compare our completely different uni experiences — Alivia stayed in Gloucestershire while Hannah moved away to the East Midlands — and talk about how distance, independence, and a global pandemic changed our friendships in unexpected ways.
Hannah confesses she thought referencing was optional (until dissertation season hit 😬), and we chat about the classic uni moments — shedding friends, finding yourself, and pretending to have your life together when you really, really don’t.
Whether you’re at uni now, survived it, or skipped it entirely, this episode is a nostalgic, brutally honest look at growing up during one of the weirdest times ever.
