Recently, The New York Times profiled a woman who fell in love with her ChatGPT persona - a charming digital guy named Leo. Which got us thinking: are frictionless AI relationships the future?
Meanwhile, we’re over here navigating very real relationship friction. So we’re sharing our best (and weirdest) strategies to smooth things out - including why treating your partner like a tiny child might actually… work? We can’t wait to hear what you think.

According to Self magazine, work should only take up 25% of our time. Cute idea… but how does that actually work for ambitious people like us? Is it possible to hustle with intention? Or do we all just need a full-on ambition detox given the state of… well, everything?
In this season four kickoff, we explain why it’s taken us so freaking long to come back, how you can reclaim your 5–9, and yes - we’re also talking about the Blue Jays (because balance).

Recently actress Jamie Lee Curtis shared some pretty strong feelings she has regarding cosmetic interventions that have become increasingly prevalent among women of (practically) all ages. So we decided to share our thoughts on what we will or won’t do, and whether these advancements are progressive or regressive. We can’t wait to hear your thoughts on this!

As many of you know, we had a hard time putting this podcast out…first Josie got hit by a rogue baseball and ended up with a concussion. When she was finally feeling okay, we sat down together and somehow ended up in a conversation about the state of the world. If you’re feeling heavy and unsure about how to help in these complicated times, we are right there with you.

If you’re like us, you’re probably thinking about time in a big way these days. If you are juggling midlife and aging children/parents - rest assured you are not alone. In this episode we discuss how our attempts at trying to make everyone else happy leaves us feeling deeply unsatisfied, whether or not marital crushes are a deal breaker, and why it’s not too late to figure out what you want the rest of your year (and life) to feel like.

Yes the world is on fire and on top of that we are in the heat of perimenopause. In the episode, we talk about premenstrual mood swings, random weight gain and that feeling that you are becoming invisible (until someone randomly hits on you). We also analyze Josie’s claim that she’s “face blind” (is that a thing?). It’s a rambling/meandering episode that we hope feels like we are sitting in your living room with you.

We’re not sure if it’s because we are getting older or because the world feels really off its kilter right now but we’ve been thinking a lot about our belief systems and what happens…after this all ends. The interesting thing is that more and more science is supporting ideas that were once considered the realm of weird. From telepathy to past lives to visions of Buddha, we can’t wait to hear your thoughts on this one!
