Chapter 1: What housemate drama unfolds in this episode?
This episode of Everybody Has a Secret is brought to you by Your Fault London and the forbidden love between Noah and her stepbrother Nick. Watch it now exclusively on Prime Video. So I think we need to talk about how the word chungus has infiltrated all of our lives and our vocab, etc. And that's thanks to you, Charlotte. What do you have to say? Do I get the flowers for this?
Yeah, well, I didn't know, certainly didn't know about chungus until you started saying chungus. Okay, well, I'll wait for my round of applause. Thank you, guys. What would you say to those listeners who have never heard of the word chungus? What does it mean? What does it feel like to you? Because people have asked for a definition. They've been like, what is that?
Because I say it literally every day.
Chapter 2: How do the hosts celebrate Charlotte's birthday?
Because everything is chungus. Everything is chungus. It's the state of mind, really. Oh yeah, it's literally everything. I defined it as, because Zara in the office yesterday asked me what it means and I was like, it means disgusting, it means bad, it means disappointing, it means ugly, it means like ick, it means everything. It also kind of means sad. Yeah.
Like if you're feeling a bit down, it's like, oh, chungus. Overwhelming chungus, I feel. Exactly. And it's just, it's so liberating to discover a new word, let alone a new slang word. And we did many moons ago talk about a shushy dictionary. Yes. On this show. We haven't really like spoken about it in a while, but I feel like a lot of your words we can encapsulate in the dictionary. Absolutely.
I'd love that. We'll put a pin in it. We'll come to you at some point, maybe in a few weeks. With more words. Yeah. There was a Shushi that commented on our social reel that we did where we were saying Chungus in a bunch of different ways. And they were like, I say Chungus because of Shu. And I was like, wait, this is my legacy.
Like I could die tomorrow a happy Shu knowing that Chungus lives on even though I didn't create it. Absolutely. Absolutely. And if shushies listening haven't used Chungus yet in their own lives, can I just say the impact it has upon first use? Yeah. The first time you used Chungus to your own friends outside of like for us in this office, it was said a lot.
Then I started saying it to my friends and family. Cackles. Yes. People love it. But then you overuse it and then it kind of like dies a little. There is an aversion to it at first because it doesn't roll off the tongue. Yeah. People don't like to say the word chungus. But trust me, once you take that first step to chungus. Oh, I spat. No, that's so chungus though. And that's chungus as fuck.
But once you say it, you will start to live a blessed life. Blessed? That's great.

Chapter 7: What humorous insights do the hosts share about housemate experiences?
Thank you, Dad. Thank you, you guys. That's really sweet. And everybody, on the Thursday of this week that you'll be listening to this, I think it will be Charlotte's birthday. So say happy birthday, Charlotte. Happy birthday, Charlotte. I love you guys. Gemini. Gemini baby. Yes, that's me. All right, guys. This week, we're talking about housemate tea, which I love hearing about.
I'm hoping that we get like a housemate affair story. Well. But we'll see. Right after a quick word from today's sponsor. Shushies, I'm sorry, but there is something about a British romance that just sends me over the edge. The drama, the yearning, the emotionally unavailable men saying something in a British accent. The girlies who get it, get it.
And that's exactly who I'm talking to for the next 45 seconds. Okay, so in case you missed it, Your Fault London has landed on Prime Video and we are already spiraling. Even if you're not a super fan of the Your Fault franchise yet, this is a great place to start. So the show follows Noah and Nick
Yep, they're step-siblings whose forbidden relationship gets even messier as they head down completely different paths. Nick is entering the business world, Noah is off to Oxford, and suddenly there's distance, new relationships, and secrets involved, which obviously means emotional turmoil for us.
Your Fault London is dramatic, it is romantic, and it is tension-filled, the kind of young adult series that takes over the group chat with every episode. Prepare to watch the entire series in one sitting, and because it's set in London, it almost makes up for the fact that we don't have a Eurosummer planned, because we're basically there.
Shushis, watch along as very attractive people make questionable relationship decisions in Your Fault London, exclusively on Prime Video right now. A huge thank you to Prime Video for making this episode of Everybody Has a Secret possible.
today we have three housemate dilemmas from pack charlotte you're reading first take it away let's do it okay i'm an aussie living in europe and i've fallen head over heels for my housemate oh my god this is what i wanted i recently reached the end of my tether and decided to delete the apps and focus on myself without the stress of average brackets unusually balding men okay fucking clock it
And I've been having so much fun protecting my peace until I met my new housemate. As soon as we met, I knew I was in trouble. And now I'm struggling to figure out whether he's just being a friendly housemate or if he's subtly flirting. Oh, what a dilemma. We'll find ourselves speaking for hours while cooking dinner and he'll usually ask me intimate questions about my dating life or family.
He's even asked when I'd move back home. He's a Brit. Last week he sent me into a tizzy when he complimented my outfit before I went out. I can't get over how much of a sweetie he is. Oh, and you looked fantastic.

Chapter 8: What final advice do the hosts give regarding housemate dilemmas?
Yeah. My existing housemates are supportive of it. They think we'd be a good match. But Annabelle and Charlotte, please be honest with me. Does this sound like a recipe for disaster if things go horribly wrong? I hear this is how so many people meet, though. Kind regards from a confused Aussie shushie living in Europe. Okay, so I freaking love this one.
Because whilst I know it is incredibly risky to date your housemate because, you know, that's your housemate and you live with them. And if things go sour, then that's a kaputs on your living situation. Yeah. That being said, can we just remember YOLO?
And like if you feel a spark with someone that you weren't finding on the apps for whatever reason and now you have it in real life, chase that feeling. Wow. Are you a romantic? Oh, hell yeah. No, so me too. Yay. And you are. Oh, yes. We all are. Bunch of homeless romantics in this vault. Yeah, do it. I back you in. I'm like chase it, chase that feeling.
And like, okay, if I was in this position, I know that I would also be hesitant. Because I'm a big old scaredy cat. True. But when it comes to housemate situations, I have heard of success stories firsthand. Really? One of my dear, dear friends, I'm sure she'll be okay with me saying this. She probably also won't listen, lives in London. She had a housemate. They were like best friends for ages.
I met them last year. So there's like really deep details. No, it's good. I met them both last year when we were in London. Cute. For dinner. I was like, the chemistry. Were they dating? No, no, no, no. They were just friends. They were purely platonic at the time. And now they're dating. Cut to now, they're in love.
And my heart, when I tell you my heart skipped a beat when I heard, this could be you, Shushie. Had you called it when you were sitting at dinner? Were you like, oh my God, the chemistry? Or only in retrospect when she told you that they were dating now, you were like, that makes so much sense. I saw the chemistry. I kept it to myself. But like, I was right. I love a happy ending like that.
I agree. Do it for the plot. Yeah. Would you usually advise caution in a housemate dating situation like this? Well, I'm in like baby moved out of her parents. Baby is me, by the way. Baby's turned 29 and is in her first year house. But so I'm very new to this whole thing. But I'd obviously advise caution. But I'm also like, oh. Chase that feeling. And isn't that exciting?
Yeah, that is exciting. Does it sound like he's being nice or flirting though? So this is the worry, is that I'm not sure if he's just a flirty person. I don't get naturally flirty people, so I'm not sure if he's just naturally flirty and does this with everyone or he's just friendly and it's coming across as flirty.
But if you're God saying that you're vibing, that there are sparks, he seems interested in your dating life and your personal life, that... That's real. But if you do like the current feeling that you're in where you're just like, oh my God, this is exciting. What is it? Is it something? Is it not? Maybe just like hold off for a bit. Is that like horrible advice?
