This week Bianca sits down with comedian Eva Alexopoulos —and she is funny. Like, actually funny—not “my mom’s friends keep telling me I should do stand-up” funny. She’s appeared at Just For Laughs, hosts the Kickback Comedy Show, and is currently out there killing it while the rest of us are just trying to answer our emails.

Eva joins us to talk about her upbringing, mental health, bad relationships, and all the ways your childhood continues to follow you around long after you’ve moved out.

We get into what happens after you leave an abusive relationship and finally end up with a genuinely nice guy. Because sometimes the real plot twist isn’t dating another disaster—it’s feeling safe enough to realize that some of the things you thought were personality traits were actually trauma responses. Love that journey for us.

We also talk about why therapy can feel so awkward when you grow up with European parents, the weirdness of saying your feelings out loud to a complete stranger, and Eva finally starting therapy.

Eva shares the deeply personal story behind her love of Dalmatians and how that connection grew into something much bigger. We also chat about women in comedy, Just For Laughs, the Kickback Comedy Show, checking in with yourself, and learning how to exist in a healthy relationship when chaos used to feel a lot more familiar.

It’s funny, honest, occasionally dark, and very Barely Edited.

What looks like flirting online is also content strategy, customer service, boundary setting and, occasionally, unpaid therapy.

This week i’m talking to Julia Melz—streamer, spicy content creator and a woman who knows that being online is still a business, even when you’re barely dressed. we get into how she started, the strange requests hiding in her inbox, and what this kind of work can do to friendships, dating and the people who think they know you because they’ve seen you online.

We also talk about the less glamorous back end of the business: keeping customers happy, creating connection without giving away too much and becoming someone’s accidental online therapist. plus, because every serious conversation eventually gets there, we settle the only debate that really matters: android vs. iphone.

It’s business, pleasure and a suspicious amount of emotional support—all barely edited.

Sarah moved from Toronto to Montreal and, somewhere along the way, accidentally became the main character of a mildly unhinged rom-com.

She now leads social and influencer at a men’s fashion brand, but the road there involved a date that landed her a dream job, a lawsuit against her high school, and enough inexplicable plot twists to keep this episode legally interesting.

We talk Montreal versus Toronto, making friends in a new city, working in social media without letting social media ruin your life, and the difference between managing one very large brand and managing several brands at once. We also get into dating, career chaos, and why unfortunate events make significantly better stories once you survive them.

Some people move cities, but Sarah triggered a full plot reset.

Bienvenue, Sarah.

This week, we're joined by Paolo Mancuso, one of the hosts of Lots to Discuss. What started as two strangers meeting for the first time quickly turned into the kind of conversation that goes absolutely everywhere.

From Quebec's never-ending French language debates to Pride Month, James Charles, dating, relationships, my newest crush, and why cyclists somehow always end up on our list, no topic stays untouched for very long. We also compare notes on podcasting, swap questionable opinions, and follow more tangents than we can count.

No agenda. No filter. Just two people meeting for the first time and somehow managing to cover everything while you watch a new friendship blossom!

Rough drafts,

You probably remember her as the bride who broke TikTok with a 47-part series about wedding photos she absolutely hated.

What started as a photographer horror story quickly became something much bigger.

This week, we're sitting down with Alex, better known to the internet as Sepia Bride, to talk about what really happened behind the viral videos, the marriage that ended just weeks after the wedding, and what life looks like when the future you planned completely falls apart... and somehow turns out better than expected.

We talk about divorce, dating, communication, why so many relationships fail long before they officially end, and why women need to stop feeling embarrassed about talking openly about what they want emotionally, physically, and sexually.

Unpack some truly wild stories, and discover that sometimes your biggest public disaster ends up being the best thing that ever happened to you.

So grab your tequila, rough drafts.

This one is messy, hilarious, occasionally unhinged, and proof that rock bottom sometimes comes with a really good social media glow-up

If you loved Part 1, sit the fuck down because somehow we had even more to say.

In Part 2 with Kaitlin Biddau, the conversation goes completely off the rails in the best way possible. We get into growing up Italian, childhood punishments, creator life, relationships, what it's like having your spouse involved in your business, living online, navigating Quebec culture, and Bianca's ongoing complicated relationship with the French language.

This episode is less structured, more chaotic, and feels a lot like eavesdropping on a conversation that was never supposed to make it out of the group chat.

We also left in a lot more than we normally would.

No life lessons. No neat ending. Just two professional oversharers continuing a conversation that probably could've went for a few more hours.

You're welcome.

Kaitlin Biddau is basically the internet’s Italian mom friend who says the thing everyone else is too scared to admit out loud. Between three kids, marriage, glow-ups, family chaos, and trying to stay “that girl” while packing school lunches, her content somehow feels both wholesome and completely unhinged at the same time.

In this episode of Barely Edited, Bianca sits down with Kaitlin to talk about everything from motherhood and marriage to weight loss, confidence, relationships after kids, restaurant culture in Montreal, viral food content, and the weird reality of living your life online while strangers feel personally involved in it.

They also get into keeping relationships spicy after years together, balancing femininity with motherhood, Italian family dynamics, social media pressure, glow-up culture, and yes… somehow the conversation ends up involving Bianca contacting an escort in Joshua Tree.

This episode turned into a much bigger conversation than expected, so it may be released in multiple parts over the next few weeks. We’re currently testing a new release format instead of the usual 11th and 22nd schedule… because apparently nobody in this podcast knows how to stop talking.

This week on Barely Edited, Montreal influencer Julia Grandoni joins us for a conversation about the Montreal influencer scene, what actually works online, and why authenticity somehow became rare. We get into creator culture, viral content, her new business, age-gap relationships, and the difference between having a real personality versus just performing one for the internet.

A little nicotine, a little nonsense, a little content strategy.
