Beep beep toot toot we have an announcement!! In an unexpected and yet highly anticipated turn, we have reached the end of season 1 of I Don't Know Her. 79 episodes in, that's about a whole season we think? Right??!! We've decided it's time to take a little hiatus and enter our show on hit 2004 reality tv show The Swan. She's going for a full-body makeover, and when she comes back for season 2 she'll be the same old show but with better boobies. Until then, please enjoy our first series and we'll see you very soon! 

I Don't Know Her

79: An Announcement: Season 1 Finale

This week Aoife wants to know a switch, Bláithín doesn't want to know salt and Karen likes maths. 

78: The Different Fish That I Catch

Forget Hollywood, we like BOLLYWOOD which is not like novel or kooky or anything like literally b/millions of people like Bollywood and it makes b/millions per year (we have done no research we just know Bollywood is cool). THIS WEEK, hang out with spiritual alien PK in Dehli, pop duo sensation Chloe x Halle at the wrong part of the VMAs and Karen is another bird would you believe. Not as brave but definitely faithful to his bird wife.

77: A Million on the Button

Things are heating up on I Don't Know Her. Is it because Aoife has 6 hot water bottles strapped to her body at any given time? 100% yes. No biggie but Bláithín has joined the army, just call her General Anxiety. Plus, Karen is a brave bird we think?

76: I, Dentity Crisis and General Ised Anxiety

CRIME! SUSPENSE! PODCASTING! OTHER SHIT THAT DOESN’T NEED TO BE PUT IN CAPITAL LETTERS! In this week’s instalment of I Don’t Know Her @beingbla waves her murderhino (made up that spelling and tbh it’s a look) flag, @aoifebella has complicated feelings about dead animals and everyone is talking about dead stuff tbh.  Karen is chill, so chill, chillest of anthologies chill.

75: A Pick ‘n Mix of Dead Pets

This week on I Don’t Know Her @aoifebella is taking a well-deserved and earned minute to herself in the Irish countryside and I (@beingbla) have not gone far to replace her with our producer and dad @BeGrandAndy because IT IS OUR PODCAST AND WE CAN DO WHAT WE WANT. Tune in to hear old old elderly friends talk about sharing our space, quarantine films and how if you are aroused by a woman’s music video she is clearly a witch and going to hell. Also, Andy frightens the cute pants off Bláithín and we try to solve an old unsolveable mystery basically we are the worst scooby doo team ever. At the end there's a quick fire creative writing round - there’s no Karen because IT IS OUR PODCAST AND WE CAN DO WHAT WE WANT.

74: Wet Ass Podcast

We feel obliged to warn you - there are a lot of fart noises in this episode of I Don’t Know Her, and no it’s not because we’ve been taken over by white male live radio DJs from the 80s it’s because we are TAKING IT BACK. Ok good that’s out of the way. This week on the podcast we are talking bossy cakes, cakey bosses, and a third thing that sounds like Cake Boss but isn’t. Furthermore we are absolutely sick of the people we find on dating apps being fully inept at communicating YES THIS IS ABOUT YOU UGH (no not you, him).  Karen is Tom Jones.

73: Funnylingus

On this week's pod Aoife-xander Hamilton & Bláithín Burr are two young scrappy and hungry women who are not throwing away their shot to talk about what you should and shouldn't be watching! We're on a Hamilton buzz, but not a Sugar Rush (don't watch sugar rush it's terrible, cool thanks). Karen is like a bridge but better.

72: Feed The Rich Lol

Aoife didn’t kill the raaaadio star, Bláithín didn’t kill the raaaaadio star - in our minds, and in our farts, the lack of appreciation for radio as the best medium (and actually lots of other things like racism, misogyny, that feeling when you wake up from a dream where everything was perfect only to realise you’re still stuck here in your shitty mess of a life, to name a few) has gone too far! Also, PROPERTY. Rent, mortgages, black mold, they’re all absolutely out if control! And absolutely fuck the fact we’ll never be able to afford them tbh.  Karen is a tough one to figure out this week because even she can’t decide what she is. Maybe she should.... flip a coin... BYE *out OF control 

71: A Body of a Tricycle

IT'S FRIDAY, FRIDAY, GETTIN DOWN ON Sally Rooney, for absolutely no reason and we're very sorry we actually love and respect you Sally. This week on episode 70 (WOW) of the podcast we are talking the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills again I think we're a RHOBH stan show now? Deal with it it's fab. ALSO, Aoife can't sleep, Bláithín can't sleep, and when we do we just can't stop, and also we need nutrients. So that's a thing and it's decidedly not fab.  Karen is wonderful and terrible and you want to be their friend but they won't stop smoking.

70: Just call it Sally Writing’s Normal Something Something

It's the O'CONNOR TAKEOEVER EPISODE BABY! Our special guest co-host this week is none other than Aoife's tall baby brother Anthony. We call him a baby but he is a big man actually. Gross. This episode can only be described as...something you've never truly experienced ever before. Is that a bad thing? You decide xo

69: Michael Phelps has skinny arms Feat. Brother O'Connor

In this week’s episode, we wanted to have THE CONVERSATION. Some terrible things have been going on in the Irish comedy community (and spoiler alert: the PLANET) and we are angry, disappointed, confused and devastated. Men?? are being awful??? AGAIN??!!! We’re joined from Dubai by our brilliant pal Sahar Ali to talk about what’s been unfolding on the Irish scene (take thee to Twitter to inform yourself), the changes that need to happen in order for us to be able to exist safely & happily in comedy (is that so much to ask?!) and frankly... to have a well-deserved vent.

68: I Believe Her

Come one come all, heed our podcast call! Just kidding the lockdown has only partly lifted we’re still at home and this is OUR podcast. Today we’re talking missing death by a feather (lol in more ways than one oh TRUST US); Aoife is going Gaga (more than usual ok); and the evolution of live entertainment is getting Bláithín down.  Karen is a horse that tbh has to leave before her time to make way for some hair plugs.

67: I Live For The Bop

This week on I Don't Know Her Bláithín and Aoife ignore the constraints of their podcast formula and just invite producer Andy on for a remote pint to celebrate his birthday and have a long over due catch up.  So join your two favorites (and Andy) as they chat about crying over Normal People, grinding in all it's forms , scary movies and of course adjusting to phase 2 of lockdown. Plus Andy finally gets to be Karen and does an awful Phil Mitchell impression. 

66: A Slice of Hamm

Bit of a late one this week because we wanted to consider our place in all of this and how we can help. We've decided that that's by briefly saying our piece and then amplifying the voices of those whose pieces have been said again and again in the hopes that the world will listen if we shout with them. PLEASE: Listen and educate yourself to what is going on around us, donate where you can, support protests and POC voices any way you can. Follow POC artists, influencers and organisations and LISTEN to what they say, spread that word and remember to self-crit and check in with yourself on how your perspective could be more helpful, and how your privilege can be utilised. We've made a list of a few resources that have been helpful to us. It's in no particular order and it's non-exhaustive. There is a link in our bio to an extremely helpful platform to learn more from too. Ní neart go chur le chéile. Black Lives Matter. No justice, no peace. Thanks all.

65: Black Lives Matter

Inspired by an epic moment of shade by queen Mariah Carey, I DON'T KNOW HER is the show where all the tea is getting spilled and topics picked apart, as your hosts Aoife & Bláithín introduce you – and each other – to people, products, concepts, news stories and other random phenomena, and tell you how to goddamn feel about it. Join Bláithín and Aoife to learn about everything, nothing, and maybe, just maybe… your very own self. A Podcast by The Shift
