Do you spend too much time on your phone? And would you like to spend LESS time on your phone? Well, this is the episode for you. Abby has a problem and Sofie might also have a problem, if she'd be up for admitting to it. Abby has read Cal Newport's book on Digital Minimalism and is up for the challenge.

A little teaser of our brand new Patreon SPECIAL bonus episode. Sofie has watched Couples Therapy, but first, we get into talking about the apocalypse again. Also, Abby sings. Does she sing well? Time will tell. Listen on Patreon now.

We dive into Kae Tempest's On Connection - a book about connections and the magic that happens when connection happens and other stuff to do with connection. (Sofie writes these blurbs and there is a chance Sofie didn't fully understand what the book was about.) We also discuss weddings and creativity. It's fun.

It's another little teaser. On Patreon, you can find the full episode (and you can watch the episode too, on video!), where, still at Sofie's place, Abby and Sofie go over some of the inspirational quotes Sofie has saved in her phone. But Abby struggles to get over the fact that Sofie owes her money. It's a very inspirational episode.Patreon is here - sign up for just £3 a month!

In this SPECIAL EPISODE (of which you only get a little teaser) recorded in the SAME ROOM (which you can also see as a video on Patreon!), we discuss stand-up, Nicolas Cage (or should we say... Nicolas Coppola) and trains and more stuff.Sign up on Patreon for the full episode and loads more goodies here.

Sofie read Women Who Love Too Much by Robin Norwood when she was 19 and it changed her life. Will it have the same effect now? Does Abby love too little, enough or too much? Also, a post-recording correction: Akon did the lovely song 'Lonely', not the other lovely song 'F**k it' - that belonged to Eamon. Get your 00s music facts straight, Sofie Hagen. Also this is a special episode because it's been edited by Sofie Hagen. So if it sounds a little different, that's why. Sofie did her very best...

What's the after effect of almost being hit by a car? Do you fight, fight or freeze and what does each of these mean? Well luckily for us, Sofie has read 'the Body Keeps the Score' by Bessel van der Kolk and can tell us everything we need to know about how the body processes trauma and why it can manifest for years after the event.

As well as exploring why Hygge can only be achieved if there are adequate bins in the street, they also explore their feelings after a visit to Copenhagen's Happiness Museum, a stirring ex...
