Very Unbecoming

De: Emily Kron, Kate Hopkins

Narrado por: Zoë Chao, Esther Povitsky, Amy Sedaris

When two childhood best friends blow up their respective romantic relationships, they make a time-sensitive pact: serial-cheater Chuck cannot sleep with anyone as she attends a three-month-long recovery group for cheaters, while sex-deprived Sofia vows to hook up with as many people as possible before recommitting to monogamy and tying the knot with her long-time fiancé.

To keep things interesting, Chuck and Sofia decide to revive a past tradition from their summer camp days—also known as the dawning of sluthood. Just as when they were tweens, they must report back to each other with every juicy detail of their vivid and salacious exploits.

As the pact brings their friendship closer than ever, their intimacy with one another becomes both uplifting and debilitating. As wounds, misbehaviors, and co-dependencies surface, Chuck and Sofia must navigate blurred boundaries in order to help each other rediscover themselves at a pivotal moment.

female friendship ftw

adored this. made me want to call up all the friends I did embarrassing shit with in my childhood

SUPER CUTE

GOOD STORY AND IM SURE A REAL WAY WOMEN WISH THEY HAD THAT FRIEND THEY COULD GO THROUGH LIFE WITH!

Performance, for sure! But also soudtrack - loved that, conplimented the story so well!

I listened to this on my walks, and gals were such great company. The more I listened, the more I loved these great, but also flawed characters.

This is so cute and witty!

A wonderful easy listen. Narration is fantastic! Story is engaging witty and easy to listen to!

Comedic timing terrific and plot engaging. Main characters were RELATABLE, cute, and energetic in their roles 💖

The quirky things about the characters were adorable. Great writing ya ya ya ya ya

Sad it had to end

I loved everything about it. Thought provoking on self reflection and friendship. It’s funny and witty.

An adventure in self discovery

From excellent sound design with an immersive story about two young women who were childhood friends reconnect and make a pact. One to explore her sexual needs the other to abstain. Such a fun story with some great laugh out loud moments. Would love to listen to more fun stories like this!

If you love stories of complex female friendship this show is for you!!!

I feel like I am always looking for stories like this and never finding them. Very Unbecoming does whatever the opposite of not passing the Bechdel test is. Truly a story about two women figuring out their love and sex lives in parallel, but where the main relationship is with each other. my female friendships are some of the most important in my life, and I rarely find art that captures so perfectly how complicated, thorny, epic and ultimately beautiful those bonds can be. It’s also hilarious and filled with really great performances!! Five stars for sure and hope to see more from these two creators.

Sex in the City 2.0

Great writing- witty, fun, real and thought provoking all at the same time. The character development was also well done

Not for me

The story is good however I am not a fan of someone chomping chips and pretzels while talking . I couldn’t finish it.
