  • Really awkward

    Edit: I was really hoping the new reboot would improve and invigorate the podcast, but it’s just made it so cringey. Feels like they’re trying to force some upbeat energy, which sounds so unnatural and performative, and the intro of greeting each other is so completely awkward and strange. Really feels like they’ve reduced the target audience age and maturity by about 10+ years.

    I’m wondering if maybe it’s time to retire the podcast for a while. It feels like you’re scrambling for things to t... more

  • Having a break

    I used to enjoy this pod but I’m finding I am getting frustrated with some of the immaturity, and I feel like their connection is a bit lost. Maybe Steph is not as keen to be there anymore. I think this pod would be better targeted to teenage girls

  • With love!

    Love these girls and this podcast, listen to every episode! I must agree with other feedback regarding Steph talking over Laura, and rushing her to finish her sentences. This is said with the most love but it is getting more noticeable, hopefully this feedback is being passed on to the gals!

    Updated post reboot - I have tried but really not a fan since the reboot. The content feels very click baity and far from the informative, sometimes heavier content the girls covered really well previously.... more

  • Disappointing reboot

    I had grown tired of the KICPod and found the content and delivery at times frustrating, under researched and of a perspective from an “ivory tower”. I was excited for the Shameless acquisition and what that would mean for the podcast however I was more than disappointed. The podcast still felt immature, unprofessional, there was no introduction to the producer who was practically emcee/third host and it felt disjointed. Topics and themes were unoriginal and the conversation lacked nuance. Sadly... more

  • Steph please stop talking over people!

    I have listened on and off & mostly enjoyed this podcast. However, the recent episode on Hormones & the nervous system, Steph was incredibly irritating to listen to, she constantly spoke over the professional (which I was really interested to hear her knowledge) and also over Laura. She needs to allow more space, time & quietude for others.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Your friend's relationship is none of your business
Q: How would you both go about it?
They suggest keeping the conversation centered on the friend's feelings and creating a safe space for her to talk. Rather than opening with an attack on her partner, a friend can respond honestly when she brings up something that is bothering her.
Your friend's relationship is none of your business
Q: Do I tell her she's settling and if so, how do I do it without ruining the friendship?
The hosts advise against declaring that the friend is settling based on someone else's standards. They recommend checking in on how the friend feels, listening if she confides in them, and avoiding direct criticism of the partner unless the friend invites that conversation.
WWYD: my boyfriend wants to take drugs at a festival
Q: Is a deal-breaker ultimatum reasonable when a partner plans to take drugs at a music festival while you're together?
The hosts say it depends on how central that value is to the relationship, and suggest clearly communicating why the issue matters, considering potential outcomes, and deciding whether you're willing to forego the relationship if alignment on values cannot be reached.
What is somatic movement? with Raj Barker
Q: What would you leave listeners with who are curious but hesitant to try a somatic class?
He urges listeners to treat hesitation as a cue to explore internally rather than push it away, reminding them that there is no pressure to perform and that starting with dialogue with a teacher and giving themselves permission to explore is key; progress comes from continued curiosity and self-compassion.
What is somatic movement? with Raj Barker
Q: What does somatic movement mean to you and what are some examples of how it can show up on the mat?
Raj describes somatic movement as a self-awareness practice where the movement is the entry point, but the real work comes from listening to the body's signals and allowing emotions to move through in a non-judgmental setting. It can range from simple breath-focused touch to more expressive, vocal work, all guided by the body's internal cues rather than external performance.
