The Way They Were

3: LAURA LEXX: Brad Pitt and Jennifer Anniston

How could this episode of TWTW be anything less than a bumper edition when it's got comedian Laura Lexx AND the erstwhile true love of JENNIFER ANISTON AND BRAD PITT?! Chantal (@chancentrate) and Gráinne (@grannymaguire) had no choice but to give this one the extra time, as Laura regresses back to the real-life fairytale of Brad and Jen. But alas, no one told her life was gonna be this way, when our Prince Charming fell off his white horse into the waiting arms of the Wicked Queen Herself.., Angelina Jolie...
But has the luxury of passing years softened our cold, judgemental hearts towards Ange? Was it Jen's book club that drove Brad to form Brangelina? Did Brad ever date Sinitta, or is it an elaborate government hoax? 
All these questions and more are pondered by the best love detectives in town...

The podcast where every celebrity split is the one that got away. Each week comedians Grainne Maguire and Chantal Feduchin-Pate take a deep dive into a celebrity breakup, chosen by a special guest, that still lingers in their hearts and minds. We scour interviews, over-analyse iconic pictures and search for meaning in post-breakup media statements. Celeb gossip hounds will feel right at home, but really anyone who's experienced a breakup can appreciate hearing how the rich and famous take heartbreak to a whole new level. They might uncouple ‘amicably with love and respect for one another’ - but we never get over these lost loves! Join us every Friday for a new episode.
