LET’S TALK ABOUT EX, BABY! AH CRAPPY RELATIONSHIPS, THE BANE OF OUR COLLECTIVE EXISTENCE. BUT WHAT DO WE LEARN FROM OUR MISTAKES? Former relationship columnist Elizabeth Best and current all-round funny guy Tom Harris chat to guests about the couple fail stories we all like to recount over drinks (because let’s face it, sometimes we need booze to cope). Ghosts of Boyfriends past will take you on a journey through the funny, tragic, horrifying and sometimes just plain bonkers stories about that crazy little thing called love, and try to wind up wiser for it. It’s like a group therapy session... with two people completely unqualified to be leading it.

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.

Quickie 80 - Pros and Cons of Shooting Shots

Season 4

Wednesday, March 8, 2023 • Duration 12:54

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!
