96: The Art of Watching Truly Rich People on TV
In this episode we get into Chanler's encounters with two very different New York strangers, a dramatic revisit of Pamela Anderson's final IG post and Lauren's corresponding disappointment with her less-than-soulful-adult life, the delicious 12-min GP's Architectural Digest video featuring her Montecito home. We also fully dive into Soy Georgina and Lauren's obsession. Plus, some Q+A on the birth order in our family, sister fights (yikes!), dispelling the WalkingPad negative reviews, does John Bledsoe think divorce is inevitable (also dark!), Chan's thoughts on the beautiful yet soul sucking Euphoria, Greece v. Spain as vacation destinations, Chan's NYC foodie spots, and more!

93: "Please Swear You Won't Listen to My Daughters' Podcast"
It appears Deb is at it again, making anyone who mentions the pod swear up and down not to listen. This week, listen along as Lauren regales us with the tale of one poor dental hygienist who was forced to make an oath to Deb that she would never subscribe. We get into that heartwarming tale of maternal support and then pivot to a recent a flight Lauren took that almost ended in blows. Chanler breaks down the West Elm Caleb situation and we discuss Bella Hadid's decision to lay off the sauce. Finally, we chat a controversial question: should you share phone passwords with your partner? Buckle in. Also, apologies for the bodily noises. This ep is truly disgusting and should be cancelled.

83: All Too Fkn Well
This week we get into a passionate conversation about the musical genius and queen of cringe herself, Ms. Taylor Swift. We discuss Taylor's inability to evolve in her taste level beyond the 9th grade and question her aesthetic choices in all things Red (Taylor's Version). Chanler shares her emotional journey watching the short film and I hold nothing back as I question the last three minutes of what was otherwise perfectly enjoyable 2014 Tumblr porn. Finally, I share a recent experience being rightfully humiliated by Sharon from customer service at Delta Airlines. Buckle in, baby.

82: Festival From Hell
This week Chanler and I chat about the abysmal snack options on American Airlines and the casual cruelty of asking passengers if they even want the complimentary snacks on board. We then get into the festival from hell, aka Astroworld, and discuss Travis Scott's history of encouraging chaos and violence at his shows. Finally, we consider the Kardashian culpability in all of this. Is America's royal family simply tone deaf and thoughtless, or maniacal witches fit for the stake? Buckle in, bb's.
