The Undone

Hi besties! I'm back in your ears with a mini dating diary confession AND some exciting news. We've got a brand new podcast for you. It's called Things You Didn't Learn In School and you can listen to it right now!  Listen on Spotify here Listen on Apple here We learned a lot of things in school that we’ve never actually needed to know in real life. Meanwhile, important things like how to nail a job interview, how to do taxes, and whether buying or renting is a better financial option were conveniently left off the curriculum. That’s where we come in...Comedian Bec Melrose and your bestie (Em Vernem) are here to walk you through the lessons you’re too embarrassed to admit you still don’t know. So come and give us a listen. School is in session xxSupport the show: https://www.mamamia.com.au/mplus/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After 67 episodes (14 recorded from home) The Undone is coming to an end. In this final episode, Lucy and Em reminisce on some of their favourite memories, from the funniest to the most important.

When you're on your period, is sex off the table for you? Or are you extra horny? There should be no stigma around period sex, but it can be daunting. So, Lucy has put together a bunch of tips to make that time of the month extra pleasurable, as well as clear up some misconceptions. Also, Em and Lucy answer a listener dilemma from someone who's (smaller) friend called themselves 'fat' and wants them to understand why this hurt. PLUS we read a listener's Dating Diary about a drunken date that ended with a serious dose of the ick. THE END BITS GET IN TOUCH: Feedback? We’re listening!

This week we thought Lucy hijacked our confessions form (which you can submit to here). But it turns out the fear of running into your ex is so much more common than we thought.  And, a worthy and necessary tone shift: Em shares a story about famous Australian-Indian actor Pallavi Sharda's recent upsetting experience after being told by a hair removal salon that she had too much hair on her face and that the women working at the salon felt uncomfortable working on her. Em gives us tips on how you can be an ally and help people of colour feel accepted in Australia... The End Bits  Need extra support right now?

Have you ever used a dating app? While a lot of us have, some people are just getting on them for the first time (or re-downloading them). Emily and guest host Emma Gillespie discuss how to create an authentic profile, the red flags to watch out for and what to expect from the people on them. Also, guest host Emma NEEDS to talk about an article she read recently, written by an intern in New York who was pursued by a very famous man...and whether a relationship with such a huge power imbalance can work. PLUS Emily recounts a dating experience where she was love-bombed to the extreme, and unfortunately Emma can relate. THE END BITS Read The Movie Star and Me by Domenica Feraud.

Emily has brought her own Dating Dilemma to this episode of The Undone, after she matched with a friend's brother on a dating app. She wants to know, is it ever ok to date your bestie's brother, or is it asking for trouble? Also, these days it's pretty standard procedure to split the bill after the first date. But considering that the wage gap in Australia still exists, and the cost that goes into going on a date if you're a woman- is that actually fair? Plus we read a Dating Diary from someone who was asked out by a man with a very strange request... Don't worry, we found out exactly why!

You've probably heard of your Love Language, but what about your Argument Style? According to this article, knowing how you argue could be the key to a happy relationship. Em and Luce break down the six styles PLUS how to have a healthy fight with the people in your life that you care about. Also, according to TikTok, "Twee" is back (if you don't know what that is, think Peter Pan collars, bangs and moustaches on everything), but is there a dark side to this returning trend? Plus, we read a dating diary story from a listener whose date ended with the most common bodily fluid we get told about on The Undone (and it's not the one you think).

Happy Holidays! It's almost Xmas so we thought we'd treat you with a few bumper episodes of some of our most popular segments. First up, Lucy's thoughtful (and admittedly unqualified) advice. We get tons of dilemmas from listeners, so we break down her most asked questions about body image, breaking up a share house, dropping out of uni, plus Em's most requested advice about dating with strict parents.

Have you heard of No Date December? Probably not, because it's something Em made up. She refuses to date anyone in December because of something called 'Wedding Reception Syndrome'. Plus, we look back at the year that was with The Undone Unwrapped, including how many listeners wrote in to tell us they had vomited on someone's penis (way too many).  And we read a Dating Diary from a listener who went on a date with her favourite musician and attempted to play it cool.

In this episode with special guest host Emma Gillespie, Lucy and Emma break down the clues on someone's social media that they've been dumped, from the meaningful quote, to the hot selfie, to dying your hair blonde.  Plus, after such a rough year, we're focusing on Xmas gifts that cost little to no money, because who needs the added stress.

2021 is almost in the rear view mirror and we are not looking back. This year we've  seen some dating trends we never want to encounter again, so Em breaks them down, from the ridiculous to the insidious. Plus, we all have some toxic traits when in relationships (except Em, apparently). Whether it's giving the silent treatment, starting a fight on purpose or asking a question you don't want the answer to, Lucy acknowledges her own and the ones our audience relate to the most. And Em reads a Dating Diary from a listener who got puked on on a date...twice. THE END BITS GET IN TOUCH: Feedback? We’re listening!

How do you feel about dating post-lockdown? Most of us are excited to date, but also want to just spend time with our friends, and have also forgotten how to date properly and don't know what we want out of it. In other words, we're confused. Em has discovered a new dating trend she thinks sums up these feelings. Plus, we need to discuss the dating PR campaign. It's when you tell your friends you're breaking up up with your partner, only to get back together, so you have to sell their good traits back to your friends. We're sorry to tell you, it never works. And Lucy tells a story for Dating Diary about meeting a guy in real life she matched with on tinder she was sure was a bot, and awkwardness ensued.

Have you heard of Authority Anxiety? Maybe you haven't heard of it, but a lot of us have felt it. It's a very specific anxiety that many people feel when they talk to people like doctors, police, teachers and their boss, and we need to talk about it. Plus, last week Kendall Jenner wore a dress to her bestie's wedding that really stole the stole. It infuriated Lucy so we have a chat about some other times it's not cool to take the attention away from a friend.

Dating with an STI can be hard, but it's definitely not uncommon. This week, we explore the stigma related to STIs and get some advice from a listener who has been dating with her herpes diagnosis for 4 years, and speak to Dr Ginni Mansberg about how to make sure you're practicing safe sex. Plus, Em breaks down the four stages of grieving a situationship, aka a relationship that never passed the casual stage.

It's our 50th episode! So we thought we'd answer one of the questions Emily and Lucy are asked most: how does having a sex and dating podcast affect your dating life? Plus, we discuss a very common dilemma amongst our listeners; what if you don't like your friend's partner? It's not an easy situation to navigate but we have some advice. And we're joined by Will McMahon from KIIS FM's drive show, Will & Woody, to hear about his worst date ever (and it's a cracker). The End Bits  Listen to Will & Woody. Watch You Season 3 on Netflix.
