Welcome to Shallow!

Tuesday, January 7, 2025 • Duration 00:30

Join us as we dive into the topics that keep us talking long after the group chat goes quiet.

Each episode, your hosts Lucy Bell and Phoebe Whittle (two friends - yes, groundbreaking!) start in the shallow end before deep-diving into the topic of the week.

We hand-pick each subject, from our obsession with beauty and wellness trends to navigating ambition and careers, these are the conversations filling our WhatsApp inboxes and flooding our social media feeds.

We’re here to break down pop culture moments and movements, question the trends we can’t seem to escape, and explore our thoughts along the way. So, are we all underplaying it… or is it really that deep?

Let’s talk about it!

Ep 1. Pillow Face

Season 1 · Episode 1

Wednesday, January 15, 2025 • Duration 34:31

It's the first episode of Shallow, and we're diving into the rise of facial treatments, 'tweakments' and aesthetic procedures!

We all just want to look our best, right? But what if it's deeper than that...

From fillers and Botox, to Gen Z’s obsession with ageing, we’re exploring how facial procedures are becoming the new normal. Is filler the new tattoo? Are we trading ASOS hauls for Botox appointments? Are people seeking these treatments too young? And, most importantly… is it really that deep?

Ep 2. Are Influencers Making Us Broke?

Season 1 · Episode 2

Thursday, January 23, 2025 • Duration 31:22

Are we just easily influenced… or is it deeper than that?

This week, we're diving into social media and influencer culture. From seasonal car hauls to influencer ‘farms’ and ropey brand launches, influencers are the (not so) new marketing tool being utilised by brands and followed in the millions.

As social media’s rapid trend cycles are unapologetically built to SELL, is influencer culture making it worse? We explore the effect social media's highly curated lifestyles are having on us, and our bank balances.

SO, are influencers making us broke? Or is it just not that deep...

Ep 6. Hair Loss

Season 1 · Episode 6

Wednesday, February 19, 2025 • Duration 35:47

Hair loss... it really is that deep?

For a lot of women, hair loss is one of the scariest topics around.

For most of us, our hair is a big part of our identity. But what happens when we are faced with losing it… Does our identity go with it?

In this episode of Shallow, we unpack Lucy’s personal story on alopecia and the impact losing hair has on our mental health.

Ep 5. It Feels Like Nobody Wants To Work These Days!

Season 1 · Episode 5

Wednesday, February 12, 2025 • Duration 33:02

This week, you better get your f*cking ass up and work!

Or.. should you?

In this ep of Shallow, we’re diving into university, career paths and work culture 🎓

Once upon a time, a degree + a good job = a comfy middle-class life. Fast forward to 2025? Yeah, not so much.

We're unpacking everything, from the rise and fall of 2010’s 'girlboss' narrative to today’s ‘lazy girl jobs’ - plus, was uni even worth it..? 👀

With the shifting rules of success, is the clear path to success gone for good? Or is it just not that deep?

Ep 4. Why Are You So Hot & Cold?

Season 1 · Episode 4

Wednesday, February 5, 2025 • Duration 30:56

This week, we’re diving into saunas and cold plunges.

They’re everywhere - TikTok, Instagram, and that one friend who suddenly won’t stop talking about Wim Hof and longevity. But is the hot/cold practice truly game-changing or are we just being sold another pricey wellness trend? We dive in to find out if it's really that deep.

Ep 3. 2024: The Year of The Pop Girlie

Season 1 · Episode 3

Wednesday, January 29, 2025 • Duration 38:45

With the Grammy’s around the corner, we HAD to dive into the pop girlies of 2024!

The gals dominated. From Charli to Chappell, it was a HUGE year for females in pop...

Was the 31-song Tortured Poets Department too much for the general public? Was Sabrina Carpenter TOO sexualised? Did BRAT have the cultural dominance that Gen Z thinks it did? And most importantly, who deserves to take home the coveted Album Of The Year trophy?

Join us as we run through our standout female pop moments of the year!

Ep 10. Ghosting

Season 1 · Episode 10

Wednesday, March 19, 2025 • Duration 34:04

The SEASON FINALE, guys and gals... and this time, we’re tackling the ultimate digital-age dilemma: ghosting.

It’s become all too common from friendships to dating, but why do we do it? Is there ever a reason it’s okay to just... vanish?

We’re unpacking the psychology behind ghosting, sharing some honest moments about who we’ve ghosted (or who’s done it to us), and whether it’s better to bail than face tough conversations. Let's dive in!

Ep 9. Skin Conditions

Season 1 · Episode 9

Wednesday, March 12, 2025 • Duration 32:18

In today’s episode, we’re diving into the world of skin conditions - and trust us, this is way more than just a surface-level conversation. While many dismiss it as...eh hem* a ‘shallow’ issue, the truth is, the emotional toll of dealing with skin issues can be heavy, often way beyond what people realise.

In this episode, we open up about our own journeys with chronic skin conditions and the rollercoaster ride of trying to get an accurate diagnosis. We also get real about the financial strain of trying treatments and why having a supportive community by your side can make all the difference.

We hope you find this conversation insightful and empowering - and if you are struggling, please reach out.

Ep 8. Sleep!

Season 1 · Episode 8

Wednesday, March 5, 2025 • Duration 35:46

Mouth tape! Silk pillowcases! Sleep scores! The morning ‘shed’…? Is 'sleep hygiene' going way too far?

In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into the latest sleep trends - from calming pillow sprays to high-tech sleep trackers, and asking the big question: Are they genuinely improving our rest, or just feeding into our obsession with perfect sleep?

We’ll also uncover the real impact of sleep deprivation and take a hard look at the sleep aid industry: Are they actually solving our problems, or just cashing in on our collective exhaustion? 🥱
