Alexa and Katie met in the waiting room of a commercial casting. After bonding over feminist ideology, having the same agent and being overjoyed that they didn't have to sit in silence for a minute longer, they exchanged numbers and the rest is history! (And conveniently documented in a podcast)
About us
Alexa enjoys true crime podcasts, eating vegan junk food, and talking to dogs like they’re people. You can find her colour co-ordinating her diary, crocheting or making up parody songs to sing to her 50+ houseplants.
Katie is into therapy, white wine, dying her hair red and showing off about being queer now. In her spare time she enjoys masturbating, eating beans on toast and soul rotting television.

“Alexa and Katie perfectly deliver what life is like for most actors with knowledge and charm. This podcast is the real deal.”
Beyond the podcast…
on stage
Katie is a published writer!! After 5 years of working on her writing, Katie’s first commissioned play Celebrated Virgins had its debut at Theatr Clwyd in North Wales in Spring of 2022. She is currently working on her next pieces of new writing which can be seen on stage towards the end of 2023.
Katie is also training to be a music therapist and has almost completed her MA in music therapy.
…and screen
In 2019 Alexa got bored of not having any acting work so decided to write a short film for her and Katie to be in. With the help of friend and podcast guest Matt Holt, who directed the short, the film was completed and went on to win an Honourable Mention for Best Women Short at the Independent Shorts Awards in LA and was picked as Short of the Week for New York film festival Female Voices Rock, as well as being featured across multiple online filmmaking platforms.
A chance encounter between two women in one small space leads to more than they bargained for after they both try to escape a house party to the "best place in the whole house".
(Rated ‘Mature’!!)
“Their no-nonsense, tell-it-like-it-is approach to their podcast is reflected here in the casual flow with which this duologue is delivered. The film benefits greatly from their off-screen chemistry...”
help for actors
Alexa also offers coaching, mentorship, and showreel editing services all at an affordable price. From her own experience working professionally on screen for almost 10 years and the invaluable insight she’s been privy to doing the podcast, she wants to help other actors find their own power within themselves and the industry, do their best work and live a happy fulfilled life, instead of the “struggling artist” trope.
"Such a joy to speak with, so insightful and has a wide knowledge of the industry. Very present and energizing. I highly recommend, I will definitely be chatting with Alexa again whenever I need any guidance - delightful!!”
Alexa has edited many showreels together for actors and believes this service shouldn’t burn a hole in their pocket. If you have clips and footage you’d like edited into a concise, eye catching reel (including a shortened version for twitter/social media), you can receive your finished reel within 48 hours for just £40.
“I just want to say a huge thank you...since the new edit of my reel I have had 3 screen auditions come through in 10 days, which for me is a huge amount! It had been a really quiet year castings wise, and I'm certain that mixing it up a bit has helped massively. I'm so delighted - thank you.” - Georgia
