We're pulling on our leotards and legwarmers and limbering up to present the tale of Richard Simmons, Hollywood's Mr Motivator turned elusive recluse.
Join us as we explore his early life growing up in Louisiana, where the struggles with his weight began, and discover how he overcame obesity and an eating disorder to become a fitness guru whose career spanned 4 decades.
And what of the various conspiracy theories surrounding his sudden and mysterious disappearance? Was there something sinister at play, or had the human Duracell bunny's battery finally run flat?
Whatever the answer, we hope he is healthy and happy because we LOVE him!
Trigger warning: This episode contains discussion of eating disorders.

Pull on your scrubs, pick up a scalpel and join us, your hosts Alex and Alexandra, as we perform a psychological postmortem on the famously reclusive poet Emily Dickinson.
Did she turn away from earthly distractions to devote herself to her writing? Or did she choose to sequester herself against the sorrow and grief that haunted her since childhood? Or was she just a privileged proto-snowflake who just needed to pull her pussy up and get a bloody grip?
Depression, daddy issues, De Sade, death, DILFs and dreary poetry - this episode has it all! And watch out cos we've been on the wine. Chin chin!!

Welcome to our very special bonus episode! We'd originally planned to record a mini one for you, but we're a pair of chatty Cathys who ended up havering shite for nearly 2 hours.
Join us as we bare our hearts, souls and holes to you, our esteemed audience, and attempt to answer the question of WHY two fascinating and visually stunning individuals such as ourselves dinnae really like going out much.
We explore the theory that hermits fall into one of three categories; the protester, the pursuer, or the pilgrim, and which of these hats fits us best.
As always, we would love to hear your thoughts, so please get in touch via instagram at wehateyou_podcast.

Join us, the heretical perfecti, as we cannibalise Christ and twerk naked into the flames of damnation in episode 3 of We Hate You.
Alex and Alexandra discuss the origins of Christianity and the nature of God him/her/itself through an exploration of the beliefs and beleaguering of the Gnostics, a bunch of mad mystics who thought the world was soooo evil that they had to reject it entirely in order to attain spiritual enlightenment.

In episode 2 of We Hate You, we drop by Pyrenees Castle; the Alhambra mansion where Phil Spector resided as a hermit, hostage-taker and later - a killer. We chart Spector's rise to stardom, from a troubled upbringing in the Bronx to conquering the 60s music scene on both sides of the Atlantic. In part 1 we speculate on the probable causes of Spector's mental decline, taking several conversational detours along the way to discuss daddy issues, which Beatle was the most f*ckable, incels and more!!
Content warning: mental illness, suicide, cannibalism, violence, abuse, drugs, murder etc etc etc.

We Hate You is a podcast discussing the lives of geniuses who turned their backs on society - famous singers, ballet dancers, holy fools, writers, artists, actors, personalities and 'faces'. People who had enough and withdrew from the world. We drool over their glorious isolation and judge their occasional 'comebacks'. As self-professed sexy hermits we identify all over the place and one day hope to join this host of immaculate refuseniks. Until then, We Hate You. Stop the world. We want to get off.
Episode 1: La Divina
Your hosts, Alex and Alexandra, take you on a whistle-stop tour through the life, loves and losses of the great soprano Maria Callas. We retrace her steps from New York to Greece to the international stage and muse on what eventually caused her to lock herself and her talents away in her Parisian apartment, subsisting on painkillers and the memories of a doomed affair, the echoes of past applause growing ever fainter.
