  • Picking fights - Petty reasons to start a row #158
    Feb 5 2025

    All seems peaceful for Charleen and Ellie - But is it really? They've had some petty rows lately, as have the listeners, over things as small as the Dubai chocolate bar, and as big as kissing other people.

    Charleen considers a parasite cleanse, although with Ellie's revelation about her childhood she might be the better candidate for it.

    There's even a nod to an old segment - German Word of the Week.

  • EXTRA JUICE: "Should I end it with my dream man to prevent heartbreak?" #132
    Feb 3 2025

    Charleen is fed up of men - and their urge to spread their legs wide and take up as much space as possible, regardless of the people around them. Meanwhile Ellie rants about the absurd cost of breakfasts in Dublin after paying a whopping €19 (!) for a rubbish fry.

    And a listener has gotten in touch after finding her dream man BUT it's not all rosy, he's not from Ireland and will have to move home soon. Should she stay with him until he leaves or end it before she gets heartbroken?

  • EXTRA JUICE: "Is she just a girl friend or is it more?" #131
    Jan 27 2025

    Can men and women really just be friends? That's the big debate for this bonus episode after one listener gets in touch unsure of whether she's being crazy or if there's something going on between her ex and his female friend.

    There's also a listener who feels like she's running out of time to do everything she wants - college, dream job, emigrate, settle down. Even though she's just 23!

  • Get Better with Chris on Addiction, Running and Changing Your Life #156
    Jan 22 2025

    Known online as Get Better with Chris, Chris Connolly never felt good enough growing up. This lead him to abuse drugs and alcohol until eventually he had a psychotic break and was sleeping on the streets in London, convinced a hitman was out to get him.

    Chris told us how he turned his life around, and why running is so important to him. He even tried to convince Ellie to join him on a 5k.

  • EXTRA JUICE: "They forgot my birthday. I didn’t get so much as a text" #130
    Jan 20 2025

    When your so called "friends" don't even remember your birthday, does that mean they get struck off your wedding invite list? Ellie thinks the answer is clear after a listener sends in her dilemma.

    Charleen is struggling with her own friendship issue after her suggestion for a group trip to Ibiza gets rejected, and Ellie's Rant of the Week might have anyone without a dog reconsidering getting one.

  • Leave It All Behind You #155
    Jan 15 2025

    Charleen and Ellie are back and they're ready to take on 2025! But unlike the listeners who are promising to say goodbye to everything from men and negative energy to vapes and slick backs, the girls aren't committing themselves to 75 Hard or any other extreme resolutions!

    There's the usual dilemmas which include a disorganised bridal party, and a friend who's only out for drama. And Charleen opens up about the sad passing of her grandmother in Peak and Bleak of the Week.

  • EXTRA JUICE: "I’m having doubts about staying here with him" #129
    Jan 13 2025

    Charleen needs help deciphering her DMs from someone who's either a troll or a real straight shooter and sends her nice messages mixed in with comments about her 'shiny makeup' and 'stripping'.

    There's a listener dilemma too from a girl wondering if she should stay in Ireland and forget her dream of going to Australia for her boyfriend - who has hurt her in the past by liking girls pictures and looking at OnlyFans.
