This week on Four Degrees Funnier the peppermint syrup is flowing! Darrien and Jaycee talk all things holiday coffee — from their first festive sip to the drinks that may be joining them in the test kitchen. Then they get a little reflective (but only for a minute) as they try to name this current chapter of their lives... Finally, they wrap it all up with their weekly round-up — aka the part where everything somehow goes off the rails, as usual.
Grab your latte, throw on a fuzzy sweater, and join the chaos — it’s Four Degrees Funnier, and the vibes are extra frothy this week. ☕🎄
This week on Four Degrees Funnier, Darrien and Jaycee are back for Season 2 and hotter than a church reception dance floor. The duo catches up on the very serious topic of wedding attire—because apparently, some people think denim counts as formalwear (it doesn’t).
Then, things take a criminal turn as they declare that heists are so back, baby—no spoilers, but Ocean’s Eleven could never. And just when you think they couldn’t be more in sync, Darrien and Jaycee reveal their latest shared passion project: crafting the ultimate Apple Music playlist filled with One Tree Hill and The Vampire Diaries bangers. Moody nostalgia? Check. Perfect taste? Obviously.
Tune in for laughs, questionable fashion takes, and two hosts who are, once again, perfectly aligned—Four Degrees Funnier than ever.
Jaycee's back with a life update full of big 3-0 feels, moving boxes (again... yes, again), and the joys/frustrations of trying to stick to a budget when life keeps lifing. She also may or may not have watched an absurd amount of TV this week—OTH, Love Is Blind, Wednesday—because what's better than avoiding responsibility with fictional drama?
Grab your coffee, wine, or emotional support water bottle and catch up on all the chaotic calm in this week’s Two Degree Update.
This week we’re serving you our weekly round-up: our current Starbucks order, Allie’s current fave song is basically her personality now, and TikTok trends are rotting our brains in the best way. We update our “Bitin’ Lists” (don’t ask, just listen), Darrien experiences Din Tai Fung for the first time and becomes a soup dumpling evangelist, and Allie tries hot yoga and nearly melts into the mat. We discuss our foolproof pick-up tactics if we were single, why women on TikTok are comedy geniuses, and why Taylor Swift’s new album drop has us feral. Plus: our preferred sleeping positions, and the irrational fears that keep us humble.
In this episode, Darrien narrowly escapes total blindness (okay not really, but it was dramatic) and now sees life crystal clear—except for why men think only their bottom half gets cold. Allie shares a chaotic wedding planning update, and we give our unsolicited opinions on the TV shows you're definitely watching (Love Island, The Summer I Turned Pretty, Squid Game: The Challenge, The Hunting Wives, and We Were Liars).
Jaycee tries Krispy Kreme for the first time and now questions if we’ve ever actually had a real donut. Darrien unveils her biting list, we debate whether it's our moral duty to hate our friend’s enemies, and the great mystery of Jaycee’s missing compost bin unfolds.
It's messy, it's dramatic, it's us.
This week, we dive into the wholesome joy of hosting—supper clubs, book clubs, and pretending we’re the chill girl from a Nancy Meyers movie. We talk about how reality TV has saved our friendships by giving us drama to discuss that isn’t about people we actually know. Jaycee survived Stampede (barely), wore a hat (regrettably), and learned that crowds are now our natural enemy.
We break down the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives reunion, issue a heartfelt apology to Justin Bieber, and marvel at how Costco samplers are acting. Plus, we spiral after watching Call Her Alex and share our own stories of mean coaches, weird food rules, and why it took us a decade to like movement again.
As always, we end with our beloved weekly roundup: sweet treats we’re obsessed with, skincare we swear by, makeup that slays, and books we are currently loving.
Warning: This episode contains emotional whiplash and unsolicited Justin Bieber forgiveness.
Producer Allie is ENGAGED, and naturally, the chaos has begun — from Pinterest boards to bridal breakdowns. Meanwhile, Darrien starts her laser hair removal journey and is bravely confronting her fear of hot zaps and small talk. We spiral into a very important discussion: are we being influenced into Botox by the algorithm… or are we just vain? Also, we need to talk about how creepy veneers are and why everyone keeps asking if we’re neurodivergent (??).
Plus: a critical analysis of why neither of us could be drafted into the military (spoiler: sunburns, blood sugar crashes, and crying when we're hungry), our oddly specific attraction to a certain sibling type, convenient horoscope logic, and our weekly roundup of songs we’re obsessed with, snacks we’re hoarding, and the TV that’s currently ruining our sleep schedules.
It’s unhinged, it’s relatable, and it’s mostly wedding planning avoidance.
This week, we spiral through the nostalgia multiverse and current chaos: Jaycee’s knees are back in action, Darrien’s backyard is once again a nature documentary, and we’re prepping for our Alberta reunion with the enthusiasm of early 2000s pop stars. Speaking of which—remember Zoey 101? Because we do, deeply.
We unpack Jesse McCartney's Judge Judy era on TikTok, celebs crashing out left and right (Justin... Amanda... sweeties, no), and why California rolls are the gas station hot dog of sushi. Tornadoes? Terrifying. Raw chicken? Illegal. Raw fish? Apparently fine. We also draft our strategies for surviving both zombie apocalypses and conscription. Spoiler: none of them involve cardio.
Plus: the cult of “shedding for the wedding,” why it needs to die immediately, and Darrien’s viral-level pic in a suit jacket that lives in our heads rent-free.
This week, we take a chaotic trip down memory lane and try to decide what year of college was actually our favorite (spoiler: it depends on how much we napped). We cast ourselves in Frozen—someone’s definitely Olaf—and get way too competitive raving about Activate again (did we win? Emotionally, yes).
We recap our current TV obsessions, including Summer House, Love Island, and Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, plus the other shows keeping us from being productive. There’s a lot of love going around—for Cody Rigsby’s Peloton classes, vegetable subscription boxes, and the underrated icon that is the butter bell. Speaking of… can butter go bad? We investigate.
Also featuring: Carley Fortune fangirling, carts that lock when you least expect it, Dino Sours as a personality trait, Allie’s mysterious allergic reactions, and Darrien’s salivary gland stone origin story (medical marvels abound).
It’s unhinged, it’s wholesome, and somehow we fit it all into one episode.
In this deliciously chaotic episode, Jaycee reveals her chemistry nerd side and somehow makes protein powder science sound sexy (spoiler: not all powders are created equal, and some taste like drywall). We spiral into a rage about words that make no sense (why is a donut a shape?!), mourn our university-induced eating habits, and fall down the rabbit hole of horse and cow classifications—why are there so many names based on if they’ve reproduced?!
Plus: we cry happy tears over Taylor Swift reclaiming her debut era (bless those guilt-free Tim McGraw streams), celebrate the magic of Biscoff spread, and investigate the unhinged art of Facebook commenting, as practiced by your aunt who still doesn’t know how to share a post without typing “SHARE” in all caps.
This one’s got science, snacks, Swifties, and sweet old ladies oversharing on social media. You’re welcome.
In this episode, we dive into the truly sacred mysteries: if the body and blood of Christ were snacks, would yours be an espresso martini and an Oreo? Because, same. We unpack the chaotic gamble that is online shopping (will it arrive? will it fit? will it exist?), and our complete inability to keep up with Gen Z slang—what even is a sigma male and why does it sound like a printer setting?
We also spiral about the horrors of our old Instagram captions (#blessed #sunsetvibes), the terrifying resurrection of jelly sandals (our arches said no), and what deserves our eternal loyalty stamp (spoiler: Jaycee would die for Activate, the adult playground we didn’t know we needed). Plus, we talk fave podcasts, guilty pleasure shows (hi Summer House), why Honda Civics are basically emotional support vehicles, and what we absolutely will and won’t spend money on when we’re broke.
Cringe, cackles, and capitalism—it’s all here. No cap. (…Did we use that right?)
In this wildly unhinged episode, we spiral from comparing flaky scalps like Pokémon cards (Team Psoriasis vs. Team Dandruff) to declaring Nate the Hoof Guy as our official emotional support farrier. We passionately debate whether ASMR is soothing or just weird mouth noises, wonder if we missed our calling in equine podiatry, and take a dramatic pause to appreciate breathing through both nostrils.
Darrien confronts her deep fear of tornadoes via lightning-struck acquaintances (yup, really), and we expose the bizarre phenomenon of sunglasses somehow impairing hearing—science, explain?? We also ask the hard-hitting questions: why do men use so much toilet paper? Is there a right way to sit on the toilet? And why does every C-list reality TV star steal our hearts?
Bonus: Darrien returns to work post-foot surgery and we collectively teeter on the edge of a mental breakdown—so, basically, a normal week.
Grab your tissues, your hoof-trimming ASMR videos, and maybe a therapist—this episode’s a ride.
This week, the girls tackle the hard-hitting question: do people actually use cookbooks or are they just kitchen decor for people who lie to themselves? Spoiler: cooking new recipes is a scam created by Big Spice. Meanwhile, both hosts suffer deeply personal coffee-related tragedies, and Darrien recounts a dental experience that left her questioning her will to live—and the suction-to-choking ratio. Allie relives the wisdom tooth removal that gave her actual PTSD, Jaycee reveals her new living situation (hint: it involves stairs and emotional damage), and the gang wonders how anyone buys a house in this economy.
Also in this jam-packed chaos casserole: the pure misery of moving, why our parents become superheroes during relocation, and our dream of throwing money at professional movers. Plus, a White Lotus watch party update, Allie spirals into a Summer House + Giggly Squad rabbit hole, we mourn the loss of iconic Disney Channel crossover episodes, debate the best and worst seasons (weather, not TV), talk about the violence that is prairie rain, and share our sacred post-work rituals. It’s a mess, but it’s our mess.
In this rollercoaster of an episode, Darrien shares her journey through foot surgery recovery—and why having metal in your body is as creepy as it sounds. The crew dives into the strange comfort of jam on toast versus the classic PB&J, and questions just how much peanut butter is *too* much. Jaycee opens up about an unexpected reaction from an older gentleman who heard her questionable CD choice from back in the day (spoiler: it was *very* girlacious). We reminisce about go karting then vs. now, get teary over books that wreck us emotionally, and discuss those oddly satisfying moments while driving. Darrien yawns (again), we all overshare (again), and Jaycee hints at a big move. It’s weird, nostalgic, inappropriate—and completely us.
In this episode, we attempt to explain the classic playground game Stella Stella Olla, and realize half the world calls it something else. Jaycee recounts her CPR course, more Like C‑P‑“Are you okay?!”.
We also discuss the moral dilemma of laughing at strangers’ public embarrassments: empathy says “no". We propose a new rule—one sympathy gasp earns you three guilty giggles. We gush over the new upcoming season of You (“Will Joe ever learn boundaries?”), and marvel at our ancient chats with SmarterChild on MSN.
Plus, our obsession with Orbit gum, and a rapid-fire roundup of must-watch shows, podcasts, and books! Tune in—and vote wisely (CPR on democracy not included).
This week, we sat down with the iconic Damara to tackle life’s most pressing questions: Is cornhole a legit sport or just glorified beanbag tossing? Do we actually get better at drinking games the drunker we are, or is that just the tequila talking? Why is forgetting to mute yourself on Zoom the modern version of public shame?
We also dive deep (too deep?) into:
– Which Disney characters are lowkey hot
– Our collective confusion about stenography (is it... wizardry??)
– Childhood karate injuries and why we’re still emotionally scarred
– Throwback bangers that make us feel both alive and 87 years old
If you’re into chaos, nostalgia, and maybe a little emotional whiplash, this episode is your jam.
In this hilarious episode, we dive into the absurdity of pasta stuck in someone's sinuses (don't ask, just listen), and the correct sinus rinse method (no, it’s not pasta-related). We talk about kids running on pure energy and caffeine, zipping around like they're in a constant state of chaos. Then, buckle up as we break down some reality TV moments from Love on the Spectrum, Temptation Island, White Lotus, and Summer House.
Things get deep when we discuss how kids learn hatred (spoiler: it’s from adults), followed by a heated debate on the most efficient way to load and unload the dishwasher We also explore the mysterious art of putting on a bra the right way, share some hilarious sports bra mishaps, and reminisce about the time we accidentally scammed someone on Marketplace (oops, sorry).
And just when you think it can’t get any more emotional, we get into the soul-crushing power of the Dixie Chicks and how their music has the magical ability to bring us to tears. Trust us, this one’s a rollercoaster.
In this hilariously chaotic episode, we dive into the deep end of adulting, where nothing is quite as simple as it seems. From the heartbreak of losing your doctor (who knew they could ghost you like that?), to those sweet post-dentist treats, fluoride be damned, we get nostalgic for the simpler days of childhood coping mechanisms.
Ever wonder when you will grow out of making your parents come to the doctor with you? We get into that, plus why having a good emergency contact is so important.
In between, we chat about "on demand" flight services, and being flagged at security for too much technology (classic Producer Allie).
Then, things get deep as we wonder, did Caillou die? We speculate, we ponder, and we may even mourn. Also, is tracking your cycles really worth it, or is it just a clever way for your calendar app to make you feel like you’re in control?
For a philosophical twist, we chat about how Pangea is our personal Roman Empire—you know, just one of those things we think about every day. But don’t worry, we’ll wrap it all up with a “This or That” showdown on the ultimate TV character choices. You know you’ve been debating whether you’re a “Dwight” or a “Michael” person at some point.
Grab your headphones, tune in, and let’s get into the wildest episode yet!
In this episode, we take a deep dive into the OG iPod (because who doesn’t miss that click wheel?), reveal the latest updates to our funeral playlists, and ponder the universe’s greatest mystery: Is Earth just a big box in another dimension? We also spill the beans on those dreaded childhood dinners that you saw coming from a mile away, and explore some bizarre food aversions that still haunt us. And to top it all off, we wrap things up with a totally relatable segment of our favorite things, because who doesn’t want to know what movies, songs, and random objects we’re obsessed with? Tune in for all the weirdness!
In this episode, we're discussing knee surgery recovery, hot takes on why blocking people on Instagram is an art form, why retinols and Botox might just be the secret to eternal youth (or at least looking like you slept for 8 hours), and the difference between girl shopping vs. boy shopping.
We’ll also vent about driving rage, because who doesn’t scream at traffic? Plus, we've got an exciting book update, because yes, we are reading...sort of. And finally, we're going through our Google history to reveal the bizarre things we’ve searched (you're not gonna believe it).
Tune in for all the chaos, questionable life choices, and maybe some questionable beauty tips.
Grab your ice pack and your credit card—it's time for another wild ride!
