Ghosts of Boyfriends Past Podcast Relationship columnist Elizabeth Best and all-round funny guy Tom Harris chat about love gone wrong. That is, until the fateful day he dyed his hair.

People kept telling Liz one of her friends looked EXACTLY like her ex, but she really didn’t see it. She looked up one night and there HE was - her ex, her first love, the big one - standing there in all his narcissistic, past smarmy glory right where her mate had been. “Holy sh*t!” she said, as she felt her heart fall out of her ass. “It’s like ghosts of boyfriends past!” And the podcast was born

. Ghosts of Boyfriends Past sees love disaster and relationship columnist Elizabeth Best, and “Mr Hearts and Flowers” funny guy Tom Harris, chat to guests about the couple-fail stories we all like to recount over drinks (because let’s face it, we need booze to cope). Ghosts is a place where we can laugh, cry and and sometimes be f**king baffled over that crazy little thing called love. It’s like a group therapy session... with two people completely unqualified to be leading it. Our aim is to bring compelling stories to the fore, no matter their genre, and bring it back to lessons learnt. Reviews called it “My most recommended podcast”, “Best podcast in ages: I laughed, I cried, I learnt a lot”, “The right mix of emotional investment, drama, humanity and warmth” and “beyond brilliant”.

🚨 Have You Ever Broken Up with a Friend? 🚨

Friendship breakups can be just as painful—sometimes even more—than romantic ones. We want to hear your story.

📢 We’re looking for guests who have experienced a friendship breakup to share their side of the story on Ghosts of Boyfriends Past Podcast for our new Ghosts of Friends Past series. Whether it was a slow drift, a sudden fallout, or a dramatic “we’re done” moment, we want to dive deep into what happened, why, and how you moved on.

💡 In return, we’ll promote your podcast, project, or anything else you’d like to share with our audience!

If you’ve got a story (or know someone who does), drop a comment or DM me—we’d love to chat! 🎙️

EP DIANNE AND BETTER DATE THAN NEVER: We were so thrilled to get the chance to talk with Dianne from ABC TV’s Better Date Than Never (by the producers behind Love on the Spectrum).

It’s hard enough dating in your 60s but when you’re also transgender and live in a regional country town, well that’s where things get tough. But Dianne is determined to put herself out there for a shot at love. She tells Liz and Tom all about what she’s learnt in the dating world in this very special episode:

It’s the anniversary of our nomination for Best S*x and Relationships Podcast! Three years on (and four since we started the pod!) and we are so grateful for all our listeners who’ve come with us on this journey, shared their stories and laughed and cried with us. Here’s to another four years!

WELL. Now that we’ve had a moment to pick our jaws up off the floor it’s time to announce: WE’VE BEEN NOMINATED FOR AN AUSTRALIAN PODCAST AWARD!

Elizabeth and Tom finally understand the saying “it’s an honour just to be nominated” (seriously, check out the field of s #*t-hot podcasters nominated in the Best S*x and Relationships Podcast Category in the comments. Oh hi Spotify and Triple J!)

Now is a great time to say thank you to our listeners, because it’s your support that makes us so f$*king happy to get into the studio and record, and share your stories of how much love can bite you in the ass.

Winners are announced at an event on Nov 21, so cross everything it’s possible to cross for us that won’t put you in the emergency ward.

(Oh and we cheekily put our new logo into the nomination announcement because... look we forgot to tell Australian Podcast Awards that changed it since submitting to a MAJOR NATIONAL PODCAST AWARDS BODY, plus it’s cute AF).

We’re back from our break!
S04E20 Shane and the Collaboration. Shane thought he’d hit the jackpot when he found a girlfriend he could make beautiful music with… literally. But then he found out that they both had VERY different ways of working.
