Girlfriend Material

Rosie Turner built a massive following on TikTok with her sharp, funny takes on queer life, and Girlfriend Material translates that energy into a longer format where she can actually stretch out. Each episode brings on a different guest for candid conversations about dating, life lessons, and LGBTQ+ experiences, with Rosie's comedic instincts keeping things moving and entertaining throughout. The show describes itself as "your Gay-Z of everything fruity and fabulous," which captures the tone pretty well -- it's playful, unapologetic, and not afraid to tackle taboo topics alongside lighter fare. Guests have included actors, comedians, and fellow creators from the queer community, and the conversations often touch on dating advice that's specific enough to be actually useful. Episodes run about 30 to 45 minutes, and with 46 in the catalog, it's a manageable binge. The show's most recent episode dropped in early 2024, so the catalog is complete for now. Rosie's background as a comedy creator gives the interviews a pace and energy that straight interview podcasts often lack -- she knows how to keep a conversation from dragging and when to push for the real story behind someone's polished answer. Based in the UK, the show offers a perspective that American-centric queer podcasts sometimes miss. If you already follow Rosie online, the podcast gives you more of what you like. If you don't, it's a solid introduction to one of the more distinctive voices in queer digital media.
