In this debut episode of the Girls Next Door podcast, your new favourite podcast hosts Wallis Day and Francesca Allen take listeners on a lighthearted trip down memory lane, tracing the very stylish, slightly chaotic beginning of their friendship—which just so happened to bloom from the magic of being literal next-door neighbours. It all began with a classic moving-day scenario: Wallis, sweating it out with a heavy box, and Francesca, breezing by with her dog Max, ready to save the day… The episode kicks off with Wallis and Francesca sharing the details of that first fateful encounter—a sunny afternoon, a damsel in denim distress, and a dog who seemed mildly annoyed by the whole ordeal. It’s the kind of moment that might’ve passed unnoticed, but instead sparked a friendship that would grow into something genuine, hilarious, and surprisingly deep. Think modern sisterhood, with better lighting. As they look back, the girls swap a handful of stories from those early days—ones that say as much about their bond as they do their personalities. A standout? Francesca’s spontaneous dirt bike joyride around the neighborhood, which ended with a splash (literally) in a mud puddle and a side-eye from Max. Wallis recalls watching it unfold from her window, equal parts concerned and entertained—like any good friend in training would be. Throughout the episode, Wallis and Francesca reflect on how those small, everyday interactions—the "can I borrow some sugar?" kind of stuff—quietly built the foundation for something real. From shared glasses of wine to heart-to-hearts on the porch, it all added up. Their chemistry is effortless, their banter unfiltered, and their love for one another obvious. The two also talk about what this podcast means to them—a long-time dream turned reality. It’s not just about chatting into mics (though there’s plenty of that); it’s about creating a space where big feelings and fun moments can coexist. They want Girls Next Door to feel like the kind of place where listeners show up for the laughs, but stay for the honesty. Wallis and Francesca end the episode with a tease of what's coming next—interviews with friends, creatives, experts, and maybe a few surprise guests. They're opening the door to questions, stories, and topics from listeners too, wanting it to be as interactive as it is intimate. They wrap up the episode with gratitude (and giggles), hyped for what’s ahead and promising plenty more moments that’ll feel like a glass of wine with your smartest, funniest friends. So if you’re into feel-good friendship, unfiltered stories, and the occasional fashion faux pas turned life lesson—stick around. There’s so much more coming your way.
