Money = power: why financial freedom is a feminist issue
Who here thinks they’re rubbish with money? We did, until we spoke to Alexia De Brogile. Alexia is the co-founder of YourJuno - the financial education app, by women, for women.In this episode, we find out how women’s attitudes to money are set from our childhood and how that lack of confidence follows us into adulthood - and stops us from growing our wealth…Alexia and her sister Margot created their platform to essentially be the Duolingo of financial education for women. They have helped thousands of women to learn about every aspect of personal finance. If you have any questions about personal finance - What’s investing? Is the stock market safe? What is an ISA? - this a judgment free zone and this episode is for you!You can download the YourJuno app for free hereFollow @yourjuno on InstagramFollow @alexiadebroglie on InstagramThis episode was recorded in November 2024If you would like to get in touch - you can email us on shouldideletethatpod@gmail.comFollow us on Instagram:@shouldideletethat@em_clarkson@alexlight_ldnShould I Delete That is produced by Faye LawrenceStudio Manager: Dex RoyVideo Editor: Celia GomezSocial Media Manager: Emma-Kirsty FraserMusic: Alex Andrew Hosted on Acast.

Just Us: I like it dense and wet
We have *muchos* to discuss today!Em’s got an awkward that Boy Alex won’t let her talk about and she needs to get off her chest. Meanwhile, Al has potentially given Betty a taste for human blood… We also discuss internet accountability - we know that that people say hurtful things online but why do people feel the need to do it? And why do people feel so comfortable to do it publicly? Alex has been completely outnumbered in the studio today with her very controversial opinion about tea. We’re pretty sure she’s in the minority - but if you feel like giving her some support, you can email us at shouldideletethatpod@gmail.com - send us your awkwards too please, we LOVE reading them!

"Stand-up comedy is a drug" ... with Russell Kane
We think stand-up comedy is possibly one of the most terrifying professions on the planet - and today, we’re speaking to a man who has mastered it. In this episode, we’re speaking to the multi-award-winning comedian, presenter, actor, author, and scriptwriter Russell Kane.He tells us about this experience growing up funny in a working class household with a hyper-masculine father and how that experience built his career and how it has been reflected in his own attitude to fatherhood. This conversation goes so much further than comedy - as we touch on everything from evolutionary biology, male sperm counts to emotional vulnerability - to unpack what Russell sees as a new vision for young men. This episode was recorded in November 2024.Follow @Russell_Kane on Instagram You can find all of Russell’s work at https://www.russellkane.co.uk/ Russell is on tour throughout 2025 - you can find a date near you here!You can buy your copy of Pet Selector: A hilarious guide to all the usual and unusual household pets here!

"I made the wrong choices": Alice Liveing and the 'wellness' lie
Throughout our body image series - we’ve had so many powerful, inspiring and life-affirming conversations with people who have incredible advice on how we can build better relationships with our bodies. One of those people is Alice Liveing. Alice is a personal trainer, influencer, columnist, podcaster and bestselling author who has inspired thousands of people with her relatable, motivational and balanced health advice. In this conversation, we take a look back to the 2010s - when she inadvertently became the poster girl for so-called “clean eating”. We found out how Alice found herself in that situation and what led her to move away from it to build a healthy relationship with her body image. If you want to hear our full investigation of wellness - you can listen to our episode ‘The “Wellness” Rebrand’ which is available now.

What if we stopped hating our bodies?
We’ve downed tools - because it’s time to reflect on everything that we’ve learned and felt throughout our big body image series.

Ozempic: miracle or myth? ... with Dr Giles Yeo
It’s time to address the elephant in the room - Ozempic. We know that Ozempic will change - and is already changing - the body image landscape. There is so much noise online, in the media and in our personal lives about the so called ‘miracle’ drug - so we decided to call in the help of an expert, to clear up the myths from the facts. Dr Giles Yeo is a professor at the University of Cambridge, whose research focuses on food intake, genetics and obesity. We got him in the studio to answer all the questions we had about Ozempic - to help us understand the science behind the drug that everyone is talking about.
