  • Summary

  • Join us as we dive into the topics that keep us talking long after the group chat goes quiet.


    Each episode, your hosts Lucy Bell and Phoebe Whittle (two friends - yes, groundbreaking!) start in the shallow end, before deep-diving into the topic of the week.


    We hand-pick each subject, from our obsession with beauty and wellness trends to navigating ambition and careers, these are the conversations filling our WhatsApp inboxes and flooding our social media feeds.


    We’re here to break down pop culture moments and movements, question the trends we can’t seem to escape, and explore our thoughts along the way. So, are we all underplaying it… or is it really that deep?


    Let’s talk about it!

    Ep 3. 2024: The Year of The Pop Girlie
    Jan 29 2025

    With the Grammy’s around the corner, we HAD to dive into the pop girlies of 2024!


    The gals dominated. From Charli to Chappell, it was a HUGE year for females in pop...


    Was the 31-song Tortured Poets Department too much for the general public? Was Sabrina Carpenter TOO sexualised? Did BRAT have the cultural dominance Gen that Z thinks it did? And most importantly, who deserves to take home the coveted Album Of The Year trophy?


    Join us as we run through our standout female pop moments of the year!

    Ep 2. Are influencers making us broke?
    Jan 23 2025

    Are we just easily influenced… or is it deeper than that?


    This week, we're diving into social media and influencer culture. From seasonal car hauls to influencer ‘farms’ and ropey brand launches, influencers are the (not so) new marketing tool being utilised by brands and followed in the millions.


    As social media’s rapid trend cycles are unapologetically built to SELL, is influencer culture making it worse? We explore the effect social media's highly curated lifestyles are having on us, and our bank balances.


    SO, are influencers making us broke? Or is it just not that deep...

    Ep 1. Pillow Face
    Jan 15 2025

    It's the first episode of Shallow, and we're diving into the rise of facial treatments, 'tweakments' and aesthetic procedures!


    We all just want to look our best, right? But what if it's deeper than that...


    From fillers and Botox, to Gen Z’s obsession with ageing, we’re exploring how facial procedures are becoming the new normal. Is filler the new tattoo? Are we trading ASOS hauls for Botox appointments? Are people seeking these treatments too young? And, most importantly… is it really that deep?
