Laundry Rage, Social Batteries, and Bare Bottoms
Sometimes the "Hog Husband" just doesn't get the hint—especially when it comes to the laundry pile. Penelope rants about the bedroom chair while Veronica navigates a holiday wardrobe crisis that’s a bit too "cheeky" for comfort. We’re discussing why we don't tolerate nonsense in friendships anymore, the desperate need for "me time," and those sudden pig-brain memory lapses that leave us staring into space. Join us for quizzes, shower-direction debates, and plenty of peri-honesty.

Meanwhile, Penelope is living her best life with zero rage, a hiccuping husband in the spare room, and a low prep approach to the up coming holiday. It's an episode about finding the light when the world feels heavy.

Judgement Day
This week on The PeriPigs we're putting "Judgement Day" on trial. From the stigma of HRT and GLP-1 weight loss jabs to Botox, we're asking: Why is womens self care everyones else's business?We also dive into the literal horrors of the magnifying mirror (who knew that hair lived there?), the mystery of why we open our mouths to apply mascara, and the sweet escape of reality TV when life feels too much. Plus we talk about living with the edited life of social media vs the messy reality of it all, and keep your ears peeled for a PeriPigs first: Veronica has a full blown hot flush live on air. It's raw, it's sweaty and it's 100% unedited (sort of).
