This special bonus Palentine’s episode of Tipsy Topics sees Beth joined by the iconic Shane McCarthy for a wild and messy love dilemma.

A listener writes in about discovering that her long-term boyfriend and her best friend have been secretly messaging, flirting and basically having an emotional affair behind her back.

Beth and Shane don’t hold back as they unpack the betrayal, the “it just happened” excuses and the absolute audacity of the best friend who suddenly wants to talk it out. Although they're just short of gathering the balaclavas and eggs, they give some very real advice about self‑respect, boundaries and why you cannot heal in the same place that broke you.

They dive into why jealousy and self-hate are often the reason behind this kind of behaviour, and how to cope when you lose both your partner and your closest friend in one go.

But it's not all doom and gloom, Beth and Shane know that karma, therapy and hot girl summer energy can be big healers, and remembering that the one thing no one can take from you is your heart and your self-worth.

This Valentine’s Day, Tipsy Topics, I Said What I Said, and Unscripted come together for a very special crossover episode celebrating Palentine’s — because love isn’t just about romance, it’s about friendship, growth, and the people who get you through it all.

Beth, Shane, and Niamh sit down for a no-filter, chaotic chat about love in all its forms. From unhinged first dates, to red flags and feral stories like getting sick during a very intimate moment, there's nothing but honesty here.

The trio also play a game of Two Truths One Lie, talk about how you know someone is 'the one' and get deep talking about the importance of self-worth and self-love before anything else.

With all the oversharing there's also ideas for your palentine's day plans, along with movie recommendations for the love birds and those who need to be reminded why love might not be all it's cracked up to be.

Whether you’re single, taken, situationship-ing, or just here for the craic, this episode is your reminder that love comes in many forms, and sometimes the best ones are platonic.

Happy Palentine’s 💕

Happy Tipsy Tuesday! Beth is back with a big catch up after her whirlwind trip to Amsterdam.

She might’ve only been there for two days, but a LOT happened. From a bizarre train encounter that had Beth convinced a man was trying to voodoo steal her destiny, to mob-wife energy locals fully believing she was about to kidnap their dogs.

Running on zero sleep after staying up all night making a scrapbook for Will, Beth spills her plans for his 21st, the reason she was bawling on public transport the day before, and why airports are genuinely her idea of hell.

We also find out that Beth used to ask for rats for Christmas (??), and why for the first time ever, she’s finding long-distance love actually really tough.

After months of trying, Beth has finally convinced her booked and busy Mam, Deirdre, to join her on the pod for a BIG long-overdue catch up.

They may fight like cats and dogs (and go as far as blocking each other) but there are definitely similarities between Beth and her Mam. From shopping addictions to guilty consciences, they talk through their shared traits that are good, and the ones that maybe need some work.

There are many lessons to learn from this conversation, including the problem with selling your daughter's vintage Juicy Couture on Vinted for a tenner, and why you should never throw eggs EVER (because your Mam will march you down to apologise)

We also learn that Beth owes about €10,000 in damages to her Mam's house, and that neither of them would stand a chance on 'The Traitors' because of their inability to tell lies.

Deirdre also offers some solid Mam advice on what you should look for in a partner, how to get a job and why it's important that you always take the high road.

Beth is back for a big catch-up and honestly, she had a LOT to get off her chest.

From favourite knickers to post-coil period cries, Beth chats hormones, gym delusions and the Leo energy she's excited for this year.

There’s also a very necessary rant about internet idiots, protecting your peace when the world feels unhinged, and why Beth is genuinely considering creating her own Noah-style ark (animals and Will only, applications required).

Beth also has a big moment of growth as she reacts to encountering her toxic ex for the first time since they broke up, and shares how she's realised time actually does heal (even when you swear it never will).

Girl... You are not ready for this week's episode with one of Ireland's biggest TikTok icons, Shane McCarthy.

He brought the follicles all the way to Dublin for a very special double episode with Beth (catch part two on his podcast 'I Said What I Said') and as you would expect it is chaotic, honest and a whole lot of oversharing.

Shane tells Beth about the crazy last two years of his life, from blowing up on TikTok to coming out as gay and finding his first every boyfriend. All of this is a testament to the decision Shane made to be 100% his true and authentic self, and we all love him for it!

It's not always been easy though, navigating life as a gay Irish traveller, dealing with discrimination and haters online, but Shane shares what keeps him going through it all and why his big mission is to represent his community and educate people.

There's also chats about long distance love, influencer realness and ADHD tangents, along with a celebration of self-acceptance.

As the year comes to a close, Beth is hitting pause for a real and honest 2025 recap - the highs, to the lows and everything in between.
