When Kylie packed up her life and moved cities, she wasn’t just chasing new dreams — she was also on the hunt for a new girl gang. Enter: a friendly, bubbly meet-up group and one instant connection that seemed like it was friendship at first sight.

But then... cue dramatic reality TV music... after years of being the type of friends that text daily, something happened. Something that left Kylie (and us) sitting there going, “Wait. WHAT?”

After a lifetime of dating men, Jackie decided to try dipping her toes into the lady pool. And while the sex was amazing, it turns out that drama has no gender.

You can find Jac’s first ep for GOBP here: https://play.acast.com/s/ghosts-of-boyfriends-past/jackieandthetractordate

And her second one here: https://shows.acast.com/ghosts-of-boyfriends-past/episodes/jackie-and-the-grey-area

Jackie is a London-based trained voice actor with a passion for character work and storytelling.

To further her career as a performer, she moved to London after completing her postgrad in Scriptwriting at Griffith University. She was later accepted into the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama (RCSSD) where she completed an MA in Music Theatre.

Jackie then wrote her first musical, a modern feminist comedy called ‘Real Women', alongside musical director and composer Matthew Samer, which enjoyed great success in the 2015 Queensland Cabaret Festival.

Since 2018 she's been a regular on the Penny Peepshow podcast, and love the challenge of giving life to so many different characters. Alongside her professional voice over and theatre work, she can also be found doing stand-up comedy on London's open mic circuit.

To keep herself fresh and engaged, she also trains in long-form improv with London's largest improv school, the Free Association, and in her spare time she loves to play DnD, watch horror films, and knit hats on the tube.

Time to have your insanity read back to you Readers. It's Quickie time and we've found the best/most horrific dating stories from you the listeners, and online to make you feel better about your own dating lives.

We open the show with a lovely bit of feedback from a Reader; and a gold star to them for including not one but two stories of their own. However, the mood soon sours as we reluctantly return to the bread and butter horrible dating stories. We hear how someone has to shoo away a suitor, and we hear how getting dumped out of the blue isn't the only sting for a heart-broken listener.

We want your advice, stories, questions and compliments so please forward them to ghostsofboyfriendspast@gmail.com. Once more, thank you for listening!

Today we have a look at the idea of dating against your type (or at least trying), we face a sticky Reader question, and we wonder whether you've ever adopted a hobby from a partner? If you have a response to any of these questions, or a dating story of your own, then please write us at ghostsofboyfriendspast@gmail.com. Rate and review the show too!
