EP 24: Assholes, Anthropic and Anonymity
This week, Betty and Veronica lay it all bare as they talk about why they’re staying in character (for now) and how this podcast is forcing them to confront many uncomfortable truths. And also some nonsense ones…

EP 23: Money Votes, Models and a Man’s Take on Mental Load
Dylan Piatti joins us via Zoom to give his perspective (and the perspective of all men. JK!) on the question of mental load in a dual working household. Does the load really all fall on the women or is there perhaps another way to look at it?

EP 19: TikTok, Talking Trumpish and Taking Action
New Year’s parties, resolutions, intentions and journalling are in the spotlight this week as Betty and Veronica fight about whether self-improvement can and should be intentional. Betty says no. Veronica says yes. And, for once, they cannot find a middle ground.

EP 20: Oratory, Old Boys and Open Family Feuds
This week, Betty struggles to make sense of Trump's Board of Peace, while Veronica asks where the Palestinians are at in deciding what will become of Gaza. Isn't the arrogance of old, white, power-hungry men the reason the world is in this mess in the first place? Betty thinks so. Veronica takes a more nuanced approach, as usual. Listen in and tell us who’s right.

EP 18: Bots, Bloodsports and Black Empowerment
This week, Betty and Veronica - two middle-aged white women of privilege - tackle BBBEE and ask whether the policy is still showing up for people of colour. Because, you know, life’s too short not to have an opinion... but they welcome dissenting ones. So have a listen and join in.

EP 17: Maduro, Money and Making Gay Great Again
In this first episode of the new season of NotJustOneThing, Betty and Veronica take on their old favourite - feminism. Is there still a place for it in 2026 and do you have to be a working woman to be a feminist? They (ragingly) debate the relationship between equality and personal agency and challenge the notion that money sits at the root of it all.
Life's too short not to have an opinion.
Welcome to NotJustOneThing, a weekly podcast with a light touch on hard news and current events. Join us as we navigate a world gone mad from very different points of view. Exploring everything from the controversial to the benign, from the ridiculous to the sublime, this podcast is the fly you've always wanted to be on the wall.
Hosted by Betty and Veronica, two 40-something South Africans with firm opinions on pretty much everything (except porn), the pod is a volley of differing viewpoints that'll give its listeners a front row seat to thoughtful - and sometimes not so thoughtful - debates around everything. And we mean everything!
Whether you're a man wanting to understand women (warning: this Pod will leave you even more confused), or a woman wanting to know she's not alone with the overwhelm (warning: she isn't!), this pod provides a platform for honest, unfiltered opinions - including yours!
Listen in to be informed, to feel validated or to rage with or against us.
New episodes every Wednesday
