Summary

Hey Tinies,

This week, Sophie’s in recovery after a face taping experiment gone horribly wrong — RIP to half an eyebrow — while Melissa’s brought a test to find out once and for all: are we actual psychopaths?

We’re also diving into the down-there diaries with our top tips on handling UTIs and HPV, plus the awkward reality of smear tests. Are you a small talk girlie during it, or do you demand total silence while staring at the ceiling tiles? We’ve got thoughts.

In the dilemmas, we’re getting into the nitty-gritty of sex aftercare. Is showering after sex an absolute must… or just killing the vibe? And wait until you hear this Tiny’s tale — there’s a foot fetish, a surprise sister plot twist, and a man who seriously needs to keep his toes to himself.

Got a dilemma, some personal advice for a fellow Tiny, or a follow-up to a previous one? Send us a voice note or message on Insta @wednesdayspodcast, or drop us an email at [email protected]

0:15.4	And I just feel like that sort of thing does stop people from talking about their mental health
