  • #13: Fringe Regret, Festival Fails & Femme Rage
    On this scorched-earth episode of Can’t Cope, Rebecca’s deep in the no-sleep holiday spiral in Spain while Kelsey’s being grilled alive by London’s murky heat. From DJ gig nightmares (wrong leads, panic in Clapham, and a random hero with a cable) to Indian takeaway survival hacks (shout out to naan bread as a utensil), it’s been A Week. Kelsey’s still recovering from her stint on The Voice of Ireland, while Rebecca shares the now-legendary tale of her cursed Come Dine With Me debut. Think burnt scallops, traumatised guests, and a wine-soaked cover-up mission.They also weigh in on Pitbull’s bald cap takeover, unexpected horniness in vampire films, and why Sabrina Carpenter’s album cover might’ve just set feminism back a decade. Throw in some hair trauma (never again, fringe), musical obsessions (hi, BTS x GloRilla), and a gentle reminder that two-person tents are a lie, and you’ve got yourself a signature Can’t Cope episode…chaotic, hilarious, and totally unfiltered.

  • #12: Charli XCX, A4 Emotions, and the Mug That Saves Us
    After a slightly accidental break, Kelsey and Rebecca are back with tales from both sides of the Irish Sea and beyond. Kelsey dives into a whirlwind fortnight hosting her brother in London, including a theatre night with a Fawlty Towers-worthy comedy, catching up with her old pub crew, and a failed Charli XCX spotting mission at an official anniversary party. Her social calendar is out of control, her DJ bookings are booming, and her birthday planning is teetering between "fun" and "fashion crisis." Oh, and if anyone has a bra recommendation that supports a big bust with a low back? Please, she’s all ears.Rebecca, meanwhile, has stayed closer to home but is deep in travel mode, her favourite. With her Italian escape to Trieste on the horizon, she shares her legendary itinerary-planning process, all while reminiscing on a perfect day trip to a WWI memorial in Rosscarbery. There’s also deep love for notebooks and proper pens, a confession about jellycats (they’re accessories, not toys), and a strong stance on greeting cards: don’t bother turning up without one. Plus, we get the lowdown on a very strange viral video involving the French president and his wife. Buckle up. It’s the big feelings about small things episode, and we’re not coping…but that’s the point. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  • #11: Sleepwalking, Kris Jenner, and the Pope
    After a so-called two-week break that spiralled into a full-blown sabbatical, Kelsey and Rebecca return to the mic with their tans topped up, spirits high, and a chaotic backlog of stories to unload. In this Season 2 opener, Kelsey reflects on celebrating her boyfriend’s 30th, officially moving in together, and preparing for her own milestone birthday, with party planning in full swing and a renewed focus on feeling her best. There’s also a night out at a Wolf Alice gig, a jealous flashback to a band-related flirtation, and a lively discussion on hall passes (Alanis Morissette gets an honourable mention).Meanwhile, Rebecca has been on a one-woman world tour, from a girls’ getaway in Mallorca to a mother-daughter escape in the exact same spot, with a brief stop in Dublin and London sandwiched between. Oh… and yet another trip to Dublin! There’s a sleepwalking incident involving a mysteriously relocated handbag, a blue-lit meltdown in a Dublin Starbucks bathroom, and a glowing tribute to the unexpected power of a Cork hairdresser. Add in critiques of confusing hotel redesigns, reactions to Kris Jenner’s new face, and some thoughts on the Vatican’s speed-run through popes, and you’ve got a joyful and very welcome return to the podcast feed.

  • #10: The Time We Were Embarrassed, The Time We Were Exposed, and The Time We Bothered O’Shea Jackson Jr.
    This week, we’re serving up the kind of chaos that lingers in your brain long after the moment has passed. It’s our episode of embarrassing and funny stories, and no one’s pride is safe. Kelsey opens with a DJ night derailed by too many spicy margaritas and one girl’s mission to bring ABBA into a rock bar. She also finds herself on the receiving end of an uncalled-for outburst at work, but keeps her head where others would throw a punch. Meanwhile, Rebecca unpacks a weekend of questionable portion sizes and a bottle of Moët gifted by a mysterious hotel manager named Matthew - who may or may not be an angel sent from TikTok. Then it’s onto the big stories: Kelsey stepping in something she absolutely shouldn’t have, a girls' night derailed by a cash-only crisis, and Rebecca’s full-body night terror that ended with her completely naked in front of her housemates and landlord. Plus, the tale of a very wrong bus, a very hot Italian motorway, and a woman in a halter top just trying to survive. We also tackle vaping regrets, Katy Perry’s joyride to space, and the crimes of Coachella’s fashion choices. It’s personal, it’s candid, and it’s the Season 1 finale. Come cringe with us.

  • #9: S Club 7, Spice Girls, and Slipknot Walk Into a Bar
    This week on Can’t Cope, the girls get nostalgic and dive deep into the music and artists that shaped their childhoods and teenage years. From Britney to Blink-182, Slipknot to Spice Girls, they cover the full emotional spectrum of their early obsessions. Rebecca remembers the walls of her childhood bedroom being plastered with Joey Jordison posters and talks about how much the Slipknot drummer meant to her. Kelsey shares her enduring love for Queen and Freddie Mercury, her admiration for Lady Gaga, and why Britney Spears was her first and most powerful pop culture icon. Together, they laugh about fanfiction, Discman days, and the pure joy of discovering new music when you’re young and dramatic.They also chat about the bizarre judgment people seem to have when you go on a holiday alone, the tragic contents of all-you-can-eat buffets, and a shocking dream Kelsey had in which Rebecca was a stone-cold killer. There’s also an update on Rebecca’s love for robes, a vivid description of the post-night-out walk of shame, and the eternal struggle of packing bold outfits for dinner and nothing practical to wear in the daytime. The episode is a celebration of formative tunes and being defiantly yourself, whether you’re blasting Sean Paul from your Walkman or reading fanfic about falling in love with a drummer.
