We’re all getting in a Lousy time machine and heading back to uni this week to find out what Editor Holly and tiny intern Rory got up to during freshers week.  It’s not all sock puppets and soiled washing up bowls though, there’s also some pretty rudimentary dating advice that everyone going to university needs to hear and possibly ignore. As always there are twisted knickers, buckets of casual chit-chat and general discussion that is question-led. But don’t take our word for it!

Despite being the boss of a thriving magazine such as the Lousy Digest, success in print hasn’t always translated into victories in Editor Holly’s love life.  She dated the whole of Clapham before (don’t tell HR) finding Intern Rory and learned a lot along the way.  Take notes because in this episode you’re gonna learn why the usual dating advice is nonsense and find out how to spot when you’re being played.  Oh and Holly’s dad also joins to nearly get us cancelled after two episodes… Bye babe xxx Watch Lousy Advice on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@holymorridge Read The Lousy Digest on Substack: https://holymorridge.substack.com/ Lousy Advice socials Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thatslousyadvice/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thatslousyadvice Holly’s socials Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hollymorrisss/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@holymorridge Produced by: The Sheriff Learn more about your ad choices.

Untwist your knickers and fill your ears with this Lousy Bonus Episode! Editor Holly has had so many jobs (8 in 2 years) that her CV gets its own episode. Intern Rory has been granted the chance to interrogate his boss about why she charged her parents to enter her bedroom, how she worked as a Barista without knowing what a cappuccino was and what life was like as a Red Bull girl hunting for snogs. This podcast description is actually longer than some of Holly’s employment stints.  Bye Babe xx Produced by: The Sheriff Watch Lousy Advice on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@holymorridge The Lousy Digest on Substack: https://holymorridge.substack.com/ Lousy Advice socials Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thatslousyadvice/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thatslousyadvice Holly’s socials Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hollymorrisss/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@holymorridge Learn more about your ad choices.

Introducing Holly Morris, a Z-list influencer, part time zumba-er AND QUEEN of lousy advice. Like all of us, she's spent her twenties & early thirties being bombarded with lousy advice in all forms, from 30 second TikToks of self-appointed life coaches about how breathwork cured their athletes foot, friends-of-friends in the pub that SWEAR their sister's cousin's big toe managed to get their ex back through reiki, magazine's that have told her if she just got her calves to be 2cm smaller she'd definitely end up getting inundated with roses on Hinge. So assisted by her tiny intern Rory, Holly will be coming live from Lousy Digest HQ. A magazine that discusses the things that really don't matter, and makes a bit of a meal of it. If you're looking for pearls of wisdom or have some unusual/ interesting/ down right awful advice of your own, let us know at [email protected] Thanks for listening and PLEASE don't forget to follow us so you never miss an episode! (And so I can move Rory to a paid intern role) Bye babe xx Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
