How can we be sisters when we can’t be friends?! Well hello and welcome to the weekly Not Without My Minisode, a weekly miniature dose of ridiculousness courtesy of sisters Rosemary and Beatrice Mac Cabe.

In this episode of Not Without My Sister, we take a walk down memory lane and discuss our secondary school experiences.

Not Without My […]

Luckily for you, there are ZERO cultural references in […]
B: Hello and welcome to another episode of Not Without My Sister. So this is the second part of our careers series – if you can call two episodes a series. In the last one, we talked about my career trajectory, to get to where I am today, and today we’re going to talk about […]
Ever wanted a little more insight into Beatrice’s career? Here’s your opportunity to trace the route she took on her career in fashion design.

Rosemary: I’m Rosemary . . . Beatrice: I’m Beatrice . . . R: . . . and this is Not Without My Sister. We should say, at the top of this podcast, that we are sisters. B: Happily. R: Aren’t we Beatrice? B: We are sisters. R: [laughing] You seem very unsure about this. Like, […]
