Not Without My Sister

…in which we each get new piercings, Beatrice tells more lies, kids who were never kids, a profound revelation about which of our parents we're more like, the moral superiority inherent in letting one's hair go grey, why Rosemary could never go undercover tormenting conservative Christian Republicans… and more!!!P.S.

Rosemary has THREE cats now (Butter, Toast and Mel Brooks); "terrifying" 4th of July fireworks; Beatrice makes chicken alfredo (and didn't love it); Rosemary makes a patriotic pavlova; is there anything to celebrate about America in 2026?; the app that lets you order food that never comes; can lash extensions ever be too subtle?!; how do the "God has a plan for me" people rationalise what's happening around the world? (Are we philosophers?!); Beatrice's first July 4th as an American citizen; and, if Beatrice is found dead in her bed, it'll probably be Brenda. Support the podcast by signing up to our Patreon!

Beatrice may be able to do her own taxes, but don't ask her where her drivers' license is… Living in the US is just a steep non-stop learning curve.Things we mention include Turbo Tax, the fact that some states in the US have no state income tax (in case you're considering moving here, the land of the free – ahem – some time soon and want to narrow down the list of ideal places to live), the recent shooting incident in a Fort Wayne cafe, and Invincible, the Amazon Prime show Beatrice is (kind of?!) watching with Beau.Support the podcast by signing up to our Patreon! Catch up on the full back catalogue of exclusive episodes (and ad-free main episodes!) here: patreon.com/notwithoutmysister – you'll get a bonus episode each and every week, ad-free regular episodes AND access to our exclusive close friends feed on Instagram.And if you have questions, email us! [email protected]. While you're at it, leave us a five-star review!

We go head to head on the recent Chappell Roan controversy. (Point to note: Chappell had not responded to Jorginho Frello's Instagram Story – what is this timeline we live in?! – by the time we recorded this episode, so we were missing some essential context but, you know, the general points still stand.)

Taylor Frankie Paul, the star of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, was all set to be ABC's Bachelorette for 2026, with her season debuting this Sunday gone. But in the space of a week, things fell apart spectacularly.Rosemary unpacks the drama for Beatrice (who has terrible taste and doesn't watch SLOMW), discussing age-gap relationships, "reactive abuse" and whether or not you should just send your kids off to fight it out in the next room… Support the podcast by signing up to our Patreon! Catch up on the full back catalogue of exclusive episodes (and ad-free main episodes!) here: patreon.com/notwithoutmysister – you'll get a bonus episode each and every week, ad-free regular episodes AND access to our exclusive close friends feed on Instagram.And if you have questions, email us! [email protected]. While you're at it, leave us a five-star review!
