Phoebe Bridgers is an indie musician from California. Paul Mescal is an actor from Ireland. It was the height of the pandemic, May 2020, when Phoebe and Paul first interacted over Twitter. Phoebe tweeted about Paul’s new show Normal People, and Paul–already a huge fan of Phoebe’s music—couldn’t believe it.

We weave through the wild, confusing, and often toxic relationships that came before Paul (including married men and throuples) then try to piece together what went down between Phoebe & Paul.
