Introducing Meet/Cute, a podcast about getting together, breaking up, and everything in between. I’m your host, Rosemary Mac Cabe, and I’m here to ask the big questions. What brings two people together? And what tears them apart? In other words: tell. Me. Everything.This is a podcast for romantics; a podcast for lovers; a podcast for anthropologists but, above all else, a podcast for nosy f*ckers. Join me every Thursday as I talk to someone about the ins and outs – if you’ll excuse the pun – of their romantic histories. Subscribe to Meet/Cute wherever you get podcasts.  Hosted on Acast.

Age may not be anything other than a number, to paraphrase the late Aaliyah (perhaps a bad example as she married R Kelly when she was just 15 – he was 27), but it's often brought up as a reason a couple shouldn't be together, especially when the woman is the older one.

On this episode of Not Without My Sister, we're talking about the major case of the blues that inevitably happens after that first visit home, post-emigration.

What's it like, being a very tall Midwestern man, dating an average heighted Irish woman? Rosemary sat down with her husband Brandin to ask him all about the cultural differences, from his point of view – and he gave some fairly scathing impressions of Ireland (having never been there…).The obvious question now is: when's Don's turn?!

This week on Not Without My Sister we want to spotlight Petrified - an Irish horror fiction podcast. Petrified tells the chilling tales of ordinary people encountering the supernatural, and their terrifying fates. It's produced by our very own Liam Geraghty and written/directed by Beatrice's former Dublin Youth Theatre chum - Peter Dunne!This particular episode is called Up the Airy Mountain. It's about a group of nuns making a religious pilgrimage to a remote shrine who begin to realise there may be something to fear in the woods.It stars Deborah Wiseman, Deirdre Monaghan and Margaret McAuliffe (with no 'a' in her Mc!)Obviously being a horror drama it's not suitable for little ears.If you like it you can follow Petrified at https://linktr.ee/Petrified_Pod – new episodes drop on Wednesdays!

We're talking Mother's Day treats, how we feel about Hallmark holidays (do wedding anniversaries count?!) and what exactly our mum hated about the one (1!) facial she's ever had.

Have you ever experienced the pang of unrequited love? It may not surprise you to know that both of us have – at various stages of our lives. We talk about the agony (and ecstacy) of fancying someone who has absolutely zero interest in you; whether to confess your love to someone who has no idea; and Rosemary reminisces (again) about the time she handed a gold coin condom to someone because she thought she was being "flirty".

We're kind of talking about New Year's resolutions – except we're not, because New Year's resolutions have gone out of fashion. So we're rephrasing it to focus more on, you know, goals and objectives; things we'd like to achieve this year; and ways in which we're striving to be… well, better!

In case you didn't know, Rosemary had a baby – and things, as they so often tend not to, didn't go to plan. We sit down to discuss the birth of Atlas Eddie, Beatrice's role on the day, Brandin's unexpected and uncharacteristic lack of chill and the shock of the C-section.

Rosemary likes to think she's not superficial, so she starts out talking about charitable gifts – but soon the façade is forgotten as we get into the meat of what we'd like to find under the tree this Christmas. It's very clear from this conversation that, as our Mum frequently tells us, we "don't need a thing!" but we'd like some nice things all the same.

How good are you at navigating? You know, with a map – or Google Maps, more commonly – from the passenger seat of the car. Can you stay calm? Can you elicit calm in the driver? Do you regularly f*ck up and have to apologise for meandering down country roads? You'll be shocked to know that one of us thinks we're a great navigator! And one of us knows we're not. One of us likes to navigate themselves. (One of us likes to direct everyone else.) One of us, too (bizarrely) seems to be advocating for the return of the paper map (serious Boomer vibes).

And how do we handle ours? Beatrice doesn't think she has particularly high stress levels, except, oh yes, for the fact that she hasn't slept the night through in almost a decade. So we talk about things like sleep hygiene, to-do lists, how Rosemary's therapist thinks she might have ADHD (but Rosemary thinks she's just got some bad habits a la Ed Sheeran) and whether or not Mammy Mac Cabe has ever experienced true stress in her life. (And if you are someone who masturbates to relieve stress, we want to know how, exactly, you get yourself in the mood.

Ah, another glorious walk down memory lane as we recount the summer jobs we had in our not-even-remotely-misspent youths (when you live in the country you really have to try to get into trouble): from potting teeny tiny saplings in teeny tiny pots to serving Sunday dinners to middle-aged golfers, we go deep into the cultural and personal ramifications of being put to work at far too young an age.LOL, no we don't, we just talk about how much money we earned, the day one of us got fired from her part-time job in a jeans emporium and how the other one of us was given the keys to the school (but was not teacher's pet, she swears) over the summer months.If you like the podcast, please consider supporting us on Patreon!

We're talking reality TV on this week's episode – or, rather, Beatrice is quizzing Rosemary on what exactly it is that she enjoys about Love Island, The Bachelorette and true trash TV like Too Hot to Handle.

Or could it be (d) all of the above?!Let us know your thoughts about the behemoth that is reality TV – and your favourite memories of indulging in the genre, from the earliest days of The Real World and everyone's favourite scripted reality TV family, Laguna Beach / The Hills / The City to modern wonders like Love is Blind and Sexy Beasts.And as always, let us know if there are any subjects – taboo or otherwise – that you'd like us to cover! FYI! We're now on Patreon!

A listener sent us in a quandary – asking how they should react if and when someone's upset. So what's the best course of action if a friend / colleague / partner is upset? Do you pretend you haven't noticed and give them space? Comfort them? Write out a list of reasons they shouldn't be upset? Tell them to cheer up and get on with things?WE PROVIDE NO ANSWERS in this episode but, instead, discuss the myriad ways in which we have let our loved ones down by reacting terribly to their moments of upset. If you have an actual decent answer to the question of how one should react when someone else is upset, please, PLEASE share in the comments. We're taking this all as a learning experience.You can follow Rosemary on Instagram @rosemarymaccabe; Beatrice is @beatricemaccabe and you’ll find us both on the podcast Instagram @notwithoutmysister. Our Facebook page is here!

We're talking about sunburn (and how it always turns into a nice tan), fake tan and – eek – sunbeds in this week's episode, in honour of the millions of Irish people who are undoubtedly burnt to a crisp after the record-breaking weather of the past few weeks.Beatrice is talking about the special-occasion fake tan, while Rosemary's confessing all about her sordid sunbed-laden past – and it didn't occur to either of us to question why it is that Irish people are quite so obsessed with painting themselves a slightly mucky shade of orange. We'll leave that to the philosophers.Please!

Sometimes quitting can be a very, very good thing – so we wanted to talk about all of the many times we've managed to bravely and determinedly give up something we love(d), for our health / wellbeing / to prove that we could.From smoking to garish printed dresses, Diet Coke to refined carbs, there are a lot of things we have – both successfully and unsuccessfully – cut out of our lives over the years.

You may not know this as she hasn't mentioned it AT ALL on social media or otherwise, but Rosemary is pregnant and, as a result, she's downloaded a LOT of pregnancy-related apps and been reading a LOT of "new mom" forums… One particular "quandary" stuck out to her this week, so we thought we'd discuss it on this week's podcast!

To complain – quietly, and only to one's dining companion – is inherently Irish, but to make a fuss and complain TO the establishment itself?! Unheard of! Luckily, a few short months in the US and Rosemary has almost entirely forgotten any Irish tendencies she once had, and is happy to complain, willy-nilly, about anything and everything, to anyone who will listen. As for Beatrice, she's not quite so sure about all of this loud giving out (plus, it seems like a lot of hassle).FYI! We're now on Patreon!

Ever since Rosemary criticised Glennon Doyle on Instagram – and possibly thanks to the many mentions of her "bestselling" book, Untamed, we have been asked, several times, to discuss her on the podcast. Sadly, Beatrice is still refusing to read said book, so we broadened our horizons and decided to talk self help and self improvement more generally.Things we mention include:Glennon Doyle, whose book, Untamed, Rosemary read for a book club Beatrice was meant to be a part of, too – and which Beatrice, upon listening to Rosemary's incessant commentary, decided to skipThe RulesThe GameHe's Just Not That Into YouYou Lost Him at Hello: A Saleswoman's Guide to Sealing the DealHow to Win Friends and Influence PeopleDr Tomas Chamorro-PremuzicMargaret Heffernan, Beatrice's #1 crushEllevest, investing for womenMargaret Atwood, who Beatrice liked before she was coolTheory of Bastards by Audrey ShulmanA book about how medical research and scientific information is all based on men's bodies – Unwell Women by Elinor CleghornDevolution by Max BrooksHamnet by Margaret HeffernanWhat We Don't Talk About When We Talk About Fat by Aubrey GordonThe Nothing Man by Catherine Ryan HowardYou can follow Rosemary on Instagram @rosemarymaccabe; Beatrice is @beatricemaccabe and you’ll find us both on the podcast Instagram @notwithoutmysister. Our Facebook page is here!

Growing up in the badlands of Kildare, Beatrice and Rosemary were big – BIG – Barbie fans. But how do they feel about the blonde bombshell now?

Can you ever get back with an ex after a bad – or even after a good – breakup? That's the topic of this episode, where we detail the circumstances under which we believe reconciliation to be possible; Beatrice divulges yet another shameful period in her life; and Rosemary finally comes to terms with the fact that she and her ex did not, in fact, decide to break up "mutually" – he moved to Australia.

Life as a journalist – and a woman with an above-average BMI – has led Rosemary to try a LOT of fad diets and fad workouts, from running on a treadmill in a wetsuit with suction pipes attached to it (yes, really) to enjoying a mid-morning snack of a single strawberry and three almonds, she's truly tried it all (so you don't have to). Not to be outdone, Beatrice has also indulged in her fair share of fads – and, if she hasn't tried it herself, she's witness the true h-anger of a colleague attempting Beyoncé's own maple syrup madness. We're dishing the dirt on all of the ways we've mistreated our bodies, and how we bounced back.You can follow Rosemary on Instagram @rosemarymaccabe; Beatrice is @beatricemaccabe and you’ll find us both on the podcast Instagram @notwithoutmysister. Our Facebook page is here!

Instead, join us as we talk Christmas gifts: how gracious and grateful we are when we receive gifts that we don't exactly LOVE; what we'd truly like to wake up to on Christmas morning; and what makes a great gift.

How can we be sisters when we can't be friends?!Well hello and welcome to the weekly Not Without My Minisode, a weekly miniature dose of ridiculousness courtesy of sisters Rosemary and Beatrice Mac Cabe. In the first of our Friday mini pods, we decided to answer a listener's question: what do we like most about each other? (Don't worry, it's not sappy.)You can follow Rosemary on Instagram @rosemarymaccabe; Beatrice is @beatricemaccabe and you'll find us both on the podcast Instagram @notwithoutmysis. Our Facebook page is here!

In this episode of Not Without My Sister, we take a walk down memory lane and discuss our secondary school experiences. Beatrice's seemed largely (if you'll excuse the pun) around her great stature and a traumatic P.E. experience, while Rosemary was more preoccupied with boys (shocker) and why her teachers didn't want to be her best friends.There are a lot of references, weirdly, in this episode – perhaps because it's about education. Who knows! Anyway, in case anything piqued your interest . . .Dr Tomas Chamarro Premuzic's TED Talk (again)Dr Death on Wondery (again!)Joe Rogan – the episode we listened to, FYI, was this one.

Friendship: it may feel like the most natural thing in the world, but it is NEVER the most straightforward! We sat down and talked about all of the big friendship moments: making friends, keeping those friends and, when the time comes, letting those friends go (or being let go!). We've had quite a few experiences of friendship breakdown and, let us tell you, it never gets easier.You can follow Rosemary on Instagram @rosemarymaccabe; Beatrice is @beatricemaccabe and you'll find us both on the podcast Instagram @notwithoutmysis.

In this episode of Not Without My Sister, the podcast, Beatrice Mac Cabe and Rosemary Mac Cabe invite you to relax, pull up a chair, as they proudly present: their Dad.Philip Mac Cabe is a man of many talents – when he's interested in something, he will absorb every single possible available diode of information about it, and then he'll go on a further deep dive to get some more. He does have his limits, mind you: making sensible decisions when faced with possible burglary, for example, wouldn't be his forte; nor would giving medical advice or offering any form of diagnosis. Impressively, he has never allowed those limitations to stifle his efforts. In this episode, we chat through his skills and foibles, the moments we've been proud of him and the other moments where we've been, well, less proud.Things we mention:Beatrice begins – insultingly – by referring to a book and TED talk by Tomas Chamorro Premuzic. The TED talk is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeAEFEXvcBg and the book, Why Do So Many Incompetent Men Become Leaders?, is on Amazon here, but you may also be able to order it into a bookshop near you: https://amzn.to/2YNGeND Dad's hydroponic plant growing / watering tower he 3D printed is a little like this: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2916221The Wives by Tarryn Fisher was not what we expected: https://amzn.to/34RfLT0Dr. Death, a podcast from Wondery: https://wondery.com/shows/dr-death/House, one of Bea's favourite shows, featuring Hugh Laurie: https://amzn.to/3beaTbHJeeves & Wooster by P.G.

Ever wanted a little more insight into Beatrice's career? Here's your opportunity to trace the route she took on her career in fashion design.Beatrice graduated from her joint course in History of Art and Fashion Design at NCAD in the very early 2000s. From there she's been almost all the way around the world, from Milan to Paris, New York to Dallas and finally (we hope!) ending up in Fort Wayne, Indiana. She recounts her journey through the fashion world.Things we mention:Here's a piece on Marni from the Business of FashionAn example of some of the high theatre Bea worked on at John Galliano (menswear AW 2008/2009)One of Bea's proudest moments: her 'Stephanie' bag design worn by fashion royaltyer, MTV's "reality" TV show, The City***Not Without My Sister is presented by sisters Beatrice Mac Cabe and Rosemary Mac Cabe, in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

Can you have good neighbours AND be a good neighbour? And what does it mean to be a good neighbour anyway? Is it taking it upon yourself to euthanise a cat who clearly needs help shuffling off this mortal coil? Is it calling the local police every time you hear a scuffle?FYI!

Thank you for listening to Episode 1 of Not Without My Sister, which we have tentatively titled, 'Not Without Our... Mother?' This episode is dedicated to, and focuses on, our Mother, who, for all of her Irish Mammyisms, has her own individual quirks and foibles which make her – we think – just interesting enough to dedicate an hour-long podcast episode to. We hope you enjoy it :)If you have any topic suggestions, or subjects you'd like us to chat about, please do let us know!
