The Fringe of It

This week is our 50th Episode! This week we have our usual storm watch with Liv half hoping we get to storm Olivia and the usual Telly Talk. Highlights include: Booksmart, The Trial of Christine Keeler and both of us have some odd discoveries, from the Icelandic Eurovision entry to Julian Simmons introducing Coronation Street back in 1998. Our main topic this week is books, we go through everything we have been reading (and not finishing it Liv’s case) in the last 6 months. We for the first time (definitely not the last) get to hear from you, our lovely listeners and find out what you have been reading too. Once again we’d really like to thank you for all your emails and audio clips. You are the best, here's to another 50 episodes!Telly TalkJoJo Rabbit: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2584384/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0The Trial of Christine Keeler: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000ct7bEmma: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9214832/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0Booksmart: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1489887/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0A Beautiful Day in the Neighbourhood: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3224458/Iceland Eurovision Song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFZNvj-HfBU&pbjreload=10Julian Simmons Introduces Coronation Street UTV 1998: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uM6XuIb9ky8Love is Blind: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11704040/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0Daisy Jones & The Six: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8749198/Modern Love: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Modern-Love-Season-1/dp/B07VKT3Q1FBooksGirl Woman Other, Bernadine Evaristo: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07GSXWFSZ/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0 I Am, I Am, I Am: Seventeen Brushes with Death, Maggie O Farrell: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Am-Seventeen-Brushes-Breathtaking-Bestseller/dp/147224074X  To Kill A Mockingbird, Harper Lee: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Kill-Mockingbird-Harper-Lee/dp/0099549484The Stationery Shop of Tehran, Marjan Kamali: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Stationery-Shop-Tehran-Marjan-Kamali/dp/147118501XBunny, Mona Awad: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bunny-Mona-Awad/dp/1788545427How to Fail: Everything I’ve Ever Learned From Things Going Wrong, Elizebath Day: https://www.amazon.com/How-Fail-Everything-Learned-Things-ebook/dp/B07H3DRJG3ME, Elton John: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Me-Elton-John-Official-Autobiography/dp/1509853316Daisy Jones & The Six, Taylor Jenkins Reid: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Daisy-Jones-Taylor-Jenkins-Reid/dp/1786331519Mercury And Me, Jim Hutton and Tim Wapshott: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mercury-Me-Jim-Hutton/dp/0747521344The Poetry Pharmacy, William Sieghart: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Poetry-Pharmacy-Tried-True-Prescriptions/dp/1846149541Modern Love: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Modern-Love-Revised-Updated-Media/dp/0593137205I Feel Bad About My Neck: And Other Thoughts On Being a Woman, Nora Ephron: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Feel-Bad-About-My-Neck/dp/0552773816Our Stop, Laura Jane Williams: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Our-Stop-Laura-Jane-Williams/dp/0008320527I Heart Hawaii, Lindsey Kelk: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Heart-Hawaii-Book/dp/B07Q3SHJJF/ref=tmm_aud_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1583254288&sr=8-1The Lido, Libby Page: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Lido-feel-good-debut-year/dp/1409175200The 24 Hour Cafe, Libby Page: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Untitled-Page-2-Libby/dp/1409175243Me and White Supremacy, Layla F.

This week we have our first (hopefully monthly) Fridge Fantasy section where we discuss all the delicious things we’ve been cooking recently. Highlights include Liv’s husband Joe’s attempt at a pasta bake dish and Charlotte’s deep dive into the world of Linda McCartney products. Also we talk about everything we’ve been watch in Telly Talk. Our main topic this week is Weddings. We’ve talked about hem in past episodes but this week we wanted to talk about everything we’ve learned about wedding planning, dresses, food and venues. And yes… we also talk about the weather, that means you Dennis!  Wedding Links: Wedding Planning: https://bridebook.co.uk/Love My Dress: https://www.facebook.com/lovemydressblog/A Most Curious Wedding Fair: https://www.amostcuriousweddingfair.co.uk/The Curries, Photographers: https://www.thecurries.co/Charlotte's Wedding Blog Posts: https://www.charlottejacklin.co.uk/blog/tag/Charlotte+Jacklin+WeddingLiv’s Wedding Blog Posts: https://whatoliviadid.com/2019/09/wedding-planning-the-finer-details/ Telly Talk: Give Us a Shout: https://www.instagram.com/giveusashoutinsta/?hl=enSpiderman into the Spider verse: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4633694/The Lego Movie: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1490017/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_3Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0844471/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0 Fighting with my Family: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6513120/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0A Beautiful Mind: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0268978/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0Ex Machina: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0470752/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0Julie and Julia: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1135503/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0Valentine’s Day: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0817230/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0 Modern Love: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8543390/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0Tiny House Nation: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3869500/Pauline & Geoffrey Walker: https://www.instagram.com/geoffreywalk/?hl=enFridge Fantasy Links: Frances Quinn Chocolate Pretzels: https://www.instagram.com/p/B0onyFBpCEf/?hl=enManon's Pasta Bake: https://www.instagram.com/stories/highlights/18125612650023251/?hl=enYo Sushi: https://yosushi.com/Linda McCartney Vegetarian Duck: https://lindamccartneyfoods.co.uk/our-kitchen/vegetarian-shredded-hoisin-duck-with-honey-and-ginger/Linda McCartney Southern Fried Chicken: https://lindamccartneyfoods.co.uk/our-food/chilled-range/vegetarian-chicken-bucket/Brick Lane Bagels: https://www.timeout.com/london/restaurants/brick-lane-beigel-bakeMonty’s Deli: https://www.standard.co.uk/go/london/restaurants/montys-deli-seven-dials-market-kerb-a4212411.html Hosted on Acast.

After seven months away we are back, with a bang or not is for you to decide. This episode we catch you up on everything we have been watching since we’ve been away....warning it's *a lot*. We take you through all the great TV we’ve seen with highlights including The Marvellous Mrs Maisel, Sex Education and we find out what each of our comfort blanket shows are. Liv even gets her Love Island minute, sort of. We also discuss all the great films we've been watching too, including our forever favourite Paddington 2, Marriage Story and we have a discussion which reaches peak shrill levels about Blinded by the Light, a jukebox musical featuring the music of Bruce Springsteen.

We’re back! We took a longer break than planned over Christmas and the New Year but are now ready to go. This week we have a unofficial guest, our friend Carrie (Wish Wish Wish), which we think adds rather a nice dimension to our real life girls night when we recorded. We talk about A LOT of TV, last count was 15 different shows and films...it’s safe to say we’ve been been making the most of the hibernation season. We discuss everything from Mary Poppins Returns, Torvil & Dean and then question the latest Ted Bundy Netflix offering and question whether a platform should be given to the same people and crimes. Liv watches Charlotte’s favourite film, and Liv shares her TV guilty pleasure (Flirty Dancing anyone?!) Telly Talk Brooklyn 99Sex education The Fyre Festival Luther Torvil and Dean Grace and Frankie The Good Place Flirty Dancing Mary Poppins Returns The Favourite The Lobster Beautiful Boy BlackkklansmanThe Green Book Almost FamousCarrie’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wishwishwish/Carrie’s Blog: http://wishwishwish.net/ Hosted on Acast.

Episode twenty six this series is a special one for us, as this season it marks the first with a very special guest- with our first being none other than the wonderful Gina Martin. Discussing everything from activism, changing the law and even knowing where to begin- we talk about everything from the House of Lords to As Seen On Screen, with some serious inspiration thrown in for good measure. Naturally, there's also extensive GBBO talk, with a sprinkling of wedding chatter and orangutan thrown in for good measure.Things Mentioned:The Insecure Girls' Club: http://bit.ly/2xh9ajcMrs Hinch on Instagram: http://bit.ly/2Ngaj4HTHAT Amazon Arm Toner: https://amzn.to/2pcWdCHCabbages and Roses: http://bit.ly/2NjTJ3AShrimps x Habitat: http://bit.ly/2OsbKtdAnd Our Guest:Gina on Instagram: http://bit.ly/2NiiCwzGina on Twitter: http://bit.ly/2NhalJfGina's Website: http://bit.ly/2CZ8ioFMunroe Bergdorf: http://bit.ly/2OrTXlPGina's Crowd Funding: http://bit.ly/2NO8J9l Hosted on Acast.

Like all good things, this season of The Fringe of It must come to an end... So here it is, your season finale! And to make sure they go out in style, Liv and Charlotte are together IRL to talk telly, food and everything in between. There's raincoat chat (Why do some have no hoods? Why aren't all hoods detachable? Why aren't coats the right length!?), there's Strictly chat (obviously), and there's a live tasting to whet your appetites. Liv and Charlotte will be back in a few weeks with a new season on The Fringe of It. And they'd love to have things to read! So message the show on fringeofit@gmail.com or message us at @fringeofit!And do tell your friends about the podcast if you've enjoyed this season. Dive in at Five people! Byeeee Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's been a week and the girls are already requesting a polite refund on September. But! There's hope yet- isn't there? A promise of autumnal apple cakes, slow cookers, soups and oh, erm, never mind. Anyway! Liv finally, finally completed Love is Blind- and they have thoughts! Mainly Charlotte wanting to bellow 'you're a liar!' at strangers, but there are lots of thoughts nonetheless!There's also the discovery of a dream job they both feel very qualified for, a TV show they won't be sticking with and the return of sixties hair styles- you heard it here last!If you would like to please please send Charlotte a soup recipe for her repertoire you can email us at the fringeofit@gmail.com or message us at @fringeofit! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

As we slink into the 'ber months it's a week of all things marking the start of cosy season. Beans, Bake Off (even if, erm, there were some power naps) and the autumn classic...101 Dalmatians. Who'd have thought?! Is Glenn Close autumn's new Meg Ryan? Only time will tell...Plus, in a classic case of oversharing, Liv goes into a bit too much detail about her pre-podcast ritual, and despite swimming in Forest Feasts, it's a dictionary the girls appear to have eaten this week as there are new words a-plenty! Just don't make a furore about it!If you'd like to pop us a telly rec, great taste star claim or anything else, we love to hear from you! Pop us an email at @thefringeofit@gmail.com, or over on Instagram @fringeofit. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Does everyone look their very best at the end of August? Or, ahem, is it just Charlotte? (It certainly isn't Liv, let's put it that way). Regardless of whether you have new highlights, a tan and a fierce new passion for bingo or not- we want holiday chat, and we want it now! But it's not just French poolside anecdotes this week- oh no! The girls talk... transfer deadline day?...Grimsby's penalties? and oh... the worst TV review of all time from Liv (but she *has* started Love is Blind, so give her some grace). It all ends with a mammoth yawn session and a Great Taste star-off- what a round up to the week! If you'd like to email us next week or this week or during a week (IYKYK) then please do email us at thefringeofit@gmail.com, or @fringeofit on Instagram! Hosted on Acast.

With Charlotte on her summer holidays (advice on how to find a partner with parents who retire to France within!) it's time to open up the electronic mail bag and see what's inside.Charlotte and Liv answer your questions on finding time for hobbies (or trying to manifest a weekly crafts club), share probably the best party theme that's every been thought of, and read our some listener telly recommendations.We'll be back next with regular programming, and hopefully many tales from sunny France (and suburban south London)! In the meantime, you can send in your own questions, party themes, or just about anything you can think of to thefringeofit@gmail.com, or you can send us a message on IG @fringeofit. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Did Charlotte just say… golf?! Not another hobby! Alas, it’s juts another obscure TV show from Charlotte (well worth it, in our opinion) as well as some serious culture-vulturing from Liv (did she just say… Proms?!) and a game that means you can reenact the Traitors at home. But don’t worry, we’re 100% faithful.Plus, in a twist nobody saw coming- Liv discovers a snack that approximately ninety nine percent of the population on earth already consume- and, not to gossip- but there’s a new boy in town for Charlotte in the kitchen area! Find out how he stole her heart (as well as which ice cream *could* be making its way to number one in the charts) all in this weeks episode.Plus, if you’d like to send us something for The Post Bag, we’d love to hear from you! Whizz any and everything across to thefringeofit@gmail.com, or of course over on our IG too @fringeofit.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A week of roses and thorns; from broken laptops, old appliances and planned obsolescence to holidays which could be Hinge adverts (Hinge! Hit us up!!), an afternoon floating and a first ever exclusive 1000/10 rating on The Fridge of It- it really isn’t all that bad!There’s also a trendy nut chat we’re sure you’ve all been waiting for, a liquorice rating (nope, this isn’t pensioners hour, STAY WITH US) and some serious keyring comparison. And that’s all before the grand planned snack swap is announced- could it be! What a week!If you have a series you’d like Liv to never complete, or a snack worthy of a rating higher than the above- we want to hear about it! Pop any and everything across to thefringeofit@gmail.com, or of course over on our IG too @fringeofit.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It’s a week of sandwiches worth leaving the M25 for, big TV moments (which show has taken Charlotte on a journey this week?!) and a very apt realisation that Charlotte and Liv might well be podcastings Shrek and Donkey- the glamour! There is also imperative (and delayed) football chat. Did the Lionesses win? Come to us to find out… last! And a discussion on which supermarket is in fact *the* supermarket for foodies! There’s also a dollop of DMC’s with a big chat about navigating grown up friendships as well as some styling queries in the shape of excellent wedding dresses and shoes to boot. If you’d like to have us answer a question for ‘It’s Not For Me To Say’, or just have an excellent recommendation (fridge to film, we don’t mind) you can pop them across to thefringeofit@gmail.com, or of course over on our IG too @fringeofit.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The throes of summer can only equate to one thing- and that means that dreams of a full Hallie Parker and Annie James summer camp are rife. For Charlotte anyway! (Just sans poker by the lake, of course). For Liv it’s trying to decode tennis post Wimbledon, trying the infamous Ben Shephard sandwich- and of course roping in her dad for a verified Papa P lunchtime sando review. There’s also all important foccacia chat (or, ahem, aerated bread), dip charting and an excellent telly recommendation which includes not only excellent nightwear but jaffa cakes too. Also this week- Charlotte sweeps in with NEW MUSIC! Is this… the NME?! She also looks for a friend to attend a Rufus Wainwright concert with, so no, this is not in fact, the NME. We’re also celebrating the our personal ‘well dones!’ this week with our little accomplishments and would love to know your wins from the week! If you’d like to send them over (either in swanky voice note form, or email) you can pop them across to thefringeofit@gmail.com, or of course over on our IG too @fringeofit.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Cheese and wine nights? Jazz festivals? Yes, you did hear correctly! This episode comes to you following a week Nigella would be proud of. We know! Who ARE WE?! We have also rolled into the part of summer where Charlotte becomes a human buckaroo of accessories, and Liv reminisces over hair braid stories she’d sooner forget- oh summer, how we love thee!Heavy breathing to one side (apologies, dear listeners), the girls are also back with the slowest culture reviews in the biz! Forever championing longevity of the arts (or so they’re calling it), hotly anticipated reviews of Paddington and… Wicked are IN. And with Charlotte having finally heard Defying Gravity for the first time- it poses the question, where is the best place for singing out loud?From Vinted finds of the year and a chat about looking your age (which could have been another episode in itself)- no ground is left untouched! And, as always, we bloomin’ love receiving your wonderful emails, and if you have a snack suggestion or burning question for our new feature It’s Not For Us To Say (or just fancy sending us a delightful telly recipe too) you can pop them across to thefringeofit@gmail.com, and for courgette-to-Cawley themed carousels and VIDEOS (yes!!!) you can have a nosey on our IG too @fringeofit too. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It’s the height of summer, and it was only a matter of time before conversations turned to sexing up salads, growing courgettes and Charlotte beginning the search for The Great Ice Lolly of 2025. It’s also a a slippery slope back into sailor dressing- and with Liv having not done her homework (as well as saying ‘like’ approximately 10000 times), it begs the question- did you try your best or were you at a sample sale? There’s also chat of *that* Aidan scene (yes, that one), an Alex Turner impression for the ages and a big discovery of what can only be described as Shazam for birds- and put it this way, Charlotte can't move for tits in her garden! Are they millennial or geriatrics? Who can tell!One of our favourite things are receiving your wonderful emails, and if you have a burning question for our new feature It’s Not For Us To Say (or just fancy sending us a delightful telly suggestion) you can pop them across to thefringeofit@gmail.com, and for strawberry-heavy carousels and VIDEOS (yes!!!) you can have a nosey on our IG too @fringeofit too. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The bras are off and the girls (ahem, Charlotte and Liv)- are back! Just give Charlotte five minutes to remove her contact lenses please...It's the second comeback tour of the decade, and it's like we never left. No stone is left unturned from the last six months; from Charlotte's great rebrand as Corporate Sue, the burden that comes with being featured on Elton John's Instagram stories, a Leslie Bibb bob (try saying that tipsy) and a measly, but dedicated attempt at being a Come What May™️ girlie. With telly talk covering the cross-country Welsh love story of the ages; there's a recipe, strawberry chatter (IN SEASON ALWAYS) and why going to the football for a communal sing-song is an untapped fun day out. As always, we want to hear from you! For the tech savvy, send us your voice notes, bread recipes and song recommendations over to thefringeofit@gmail.com, and for high quality collages, VIDEOS THIS SERIES (we know!!!) and a lovely carousel (if you’re lucky) of things we chatted about you can have a nosey on our IG too @fringeofit too.Bread book, as mentioned here! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We told you we wouldn't be gone for long, didn't we! This week is a *very* special bonus episode with none other than podcaster, activist, mental health ambassador and writer Gemma Styles. With today being publication day of her debut book, Why Am I Like This? We pulled Gemma into our virtual living room and made sure we covered everything from coping with comparison and the spotlight effect, managing authenticity online, setting boundaries and why being a human is actually pretty hard (and joyful, and weird and wonderful- naturally, but CRIKEY it's tricky sometimes). In a turn of events, we also enter what can only be described as our Stressful TV Era, Charlotte is caught off guard by the funeral in Four Weddings (...and a Funeral) and we discuss the best frozen sweet pastry out there (nope, t's not a croissant) and being new to Gru (we'll let you decide if that's cool or not)! If you’d like to make some unstressful TV suggestions (all about balance)- you can email us at thefringeofit@gmail.com. We’re also over @thefingeofit and @charlottejacklin and @livpurvis and will see you very soon!Gemma's brilliant book is available from today, and you can pick it up here! https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/why-am-i-like-this-gemma-styles/7665116(also, this is brilliant Lucy we mentioned! https://www.instagram.com/lucysheridan/?hl=en) Hosted on Acast.

As Shania Twain once said- looks like we made it! It’s the final episode of the series, and we go out with a big chocolatey bang (without giving anything away… ahem). From car MOT’s resembling Grease (or not), an inbox worthy of a dreamy scene with Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks and a very exciting Blue Peter badge hack (for the first time in TOFI history this *could* be a ‘You Heard it Here FIRST')- there’s a lot to get to your teeth into this week, and that’s before we delve into Have I Got Food For You! It’s been a delight of a series, so thank you so much for joining us- you’re all truly the best, and remember- see it, say it, compliment it! It’s only a little back to school holiday we’re taking *but* as always, we love to hear from you (and would love a full ol’ postbag upon our return). If you’d like to send any celebrity cake gossip to us (as well as songs worthy of TikTok dances, good housekeeping hacks and everything in-between)- you can email us at thefringeofit@gmail.com. We’re also over @thefingeofit and @charlottejacklin and @livpurvis in the meantime!  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It’s the penultimate episode of series 2, and this week The Fringe of It goes to the Fringe! Taking us on a rollercoaster of culture- it’s a buffet of comedy, crying and cabaret as well as a beautiful one woman monologue about Love is Blind (courtesy of Charlotte, sadly not performed at the Fringe… yet). Charlotte and Liv also delve into pressing matters such as bringing back liquid eyeliner and why women complimenting each other on their outfits is an integral part of serotonin sharing in our society. There’s also pan slammingly good cookies, a dessert we *all* need to be adding to our repertoires and an introduction to hip and fresh new artist… Dua Lipa!! You heard it here first! Or last! If your life has been changed by discovering Dua or you have a bakery worth shouting from the rooftops about, we very much would love to know- please send us your map-pinned pastries over to thefringeofit@gmail.com, and for high quality collages and a lovely carousel (if you’re lucky) of things we chatted about you can have a nosey on our IG too @fringeofit.
