A Bed in Bangkok

Ever been in a fitness class and some creep comes in and films it? Creep alert…or just another Farangs can f*ck off with…!   know someone thinking about plastic surgery tourism? Do your research and be careful!!!! Lastly, Jo finally got around to going to Grand Nikko, but how grand was it?    

This week on A Bed in Bangkok: Jo's got a bone to pick-what else is new?  We are embarrassingly late to the pickleball party, but why did no one tell us how fun this is???  Twattwaffle. Is this an actual word people use?  

On this episode of Bonus Besties Meg hops into bed with her friend, Actor/Director Adam Kaokept. Adam tells his tales of moving from the US to Thailand, training to be a Thai chef, the dating scene, making movies in Thailand and so much more! 

Meg had to do a visa run to "super cute" Vientiane....is how she sold it to Jo. The rest, listen and find out! 

According to the owner of Quilombo, the name means chaos. So naturally… welcome to our Quilombo episode. 😂 Amazing food, toilet shopping, questionable Irish accents, waiting tables, Lumpini wake and bakes, and…well, you get the idea. Basically… chaos.

This week, we’re keeping things light and hoping to bring a little distraction from any stress you, your friends, or your family may have experienced because of the flooding. ❤️ We love you, Bangkok, and hope we can bring a smile to our Bangkok besties’ beautiful faces. ❤️🙏❤️

This week, Jo is recapping her Saturnday evening exploration of Charoen Krung. From loaded nachos to "please just show me a real menu," she's taking us through the whole adventure. A little confusingly, according to Meg-but bear with her. Enjoy!!! 

So excited to have another Bangkok Bestie on the pod: Maddie! Maddie has been living in Bangkok for 9 years and boy does she know her way around shopping online and finding really unique and interesting items. But that's just part of her Millennial Mom empire. Listen to Maddie's episode to learn more about this Bangkok Baddie! 

Today on the pod: Did you guys hear about Hybrid Beijing?! Like… WTF?  But apparently, strange things are happening right here in BKK too. Just ask the koi fish.  Meg had an absolute blast watching Jo extremely uncomfortably… salsa dance.  Oh, and we’re cultured ladies now. Meg went to the theater, while Jo attended the ballet… with the King. Well, he was there too.  As always, we’re keeping it cl...

Today we're rehashing Jo's epic German beer hall birthday celebration-which gave Meg a two day hangover. Amateur b*tch. 

This week, we’re ALL over the board. Meg has a very White Lotus-esque creepy mother-son encounter, while one neighbor has declared war on childhood classics like ding dong ditch. Seriously… remember when kids could just be kids?! And speaking of children… Jo got BLOCKED from an expat group. Seriously??? Is this Bangkok or middle school?! Another week, another PSA.

So excited to have Estelle on the podcast!!! 🥖🍷 Estelle is the owner of one of my favorite neighborhood hangouts in Bangkok, PLAYLYS — a wonderful French Provençal restaurant and the kind of place that instantly feels like a little escape. And if I do say so myself, it’s a pretty special spot in town! 💕 She tells us all about her background, her journey, and the twists and turns that eventually...

This week on A Bed in Bangkok… Jo joined the 6:30 AM run club. Yes, you read that correctly. 6:30. In the morning. 😳 Meanwhile, Dutch douches are getting kicked out of Bali, Meg escapes to Vietnam for a weekend getaway, and Jo loses yet another tennis match—but who cares...her legs look good? ?🎾🦵😂 Remember Delia’s catalogue? We definitely do.  😂 Delia Eatery—The real Mr. Singh? Seems there's...

Hop into bed with us as I introduce you to my dear friend, Allan, for a fun conversation full of great stories, local insights, and plenty of chuckles. 💚

We're back at it with a topic that comes up a lot as expats: friendships. Making new friends is exciting...but somehow it can feel a little more like dating and emotional roulette all at once.  We've all been there-whether we admit it or not. Tune in as we dive into the messy, funny, and surprisingly complicated world fo friendship in Bangkok. 

We talk male saunas, adult diapers, bonnaroo, elevator people, soapy massage and end very pleasantly and right where one would expect with preferred island vacations 

Meg & Jo discuss their double dinner date and mouth explosions (food-related of course)

Bonus with a Bangkok Bestie! This week, we're joined in the bed by April, a veterinarian and Bangkok expat of four years! We dive into ethical elephant sanctuaries, what to look for before you visit, expat life in Thailand, and her favorite bars, restaurants, and local gems. A fun episode packed with insider tips and stories!

Meg definitely knows how to f*ck with JO. Between the gullibility and chatting up strangers, we've officially reached "needs adult supervision" territory. 

This week Meg and Jo talk people watching, the Knicks, UFC and....Thai leprechauns?  Hop into bed with us and come along for the ride. You never know where the conversation's going next.
