This episode feels more like a therapy session — just the way we like it. We’re diving deep into what it really looks like to maintain friendships in your late 20s. From watching friends get married, have babies, and settle down… to still going out, navigating big changes, and trying to make time for the people who matter. We talk about the guilt, the grace, the growing pains, and the unexpected beauty of learning how to show up for each other — even when life starts to look really different. If you've ever felt weird about drifting, shifting, or just trying to keep up, this one’s for you.Have a story or a topic you’d love us to chat about on the pod?

We’re taking you back to the very beginning — first kisses that somehow actually felt like movie scenes (yes, we peaked early), followed by… well, chaos. We’re talking our first time getting high, our first drinks, and what happened when we were finally let loose at college parties for the first time. We dive into stories of unforgettable nights we only kind of remember, nothing is off limits — including a certain moment that involved fishing a train card out of a very unfortunate place (yes, it’s exactly what you think). It’s equal parts cute, chaotic, and the ultimate coming-of-age episode.

Join Jess and Marissa in this week's episode as they play one of their favorite games- Codenames! On each turn, the clue giver uses their guide card to decipher which key words are their team's words, and tries to come up with one-word hints for their teammate to guess as many words as possible! The catch is that you have to avoid your teammate from guessing the other team's words, or even worse... the assassin card!
Sit back with your beverage of choice, get nice and cozy, and laugh along with the girtls as they try to put the two halves that are their brains together to play Codenames!

This week, we're throwing it all the way back to the movies that defined our childhoods. From A Cinderella Story (yes, we’re still obsessed with that bedazzled flip phone and iconic backyard dress reveal) to the chaotic fun of Sleepover and the sharp wit of Easy A, we’re reliving the films that shaped our sense of humor, style, and teen angst. We also sprinkle in a few nostalgic nods to TV staples like SpongeBob and Regular Show, plus some quick catch-ups on the childhood celebs we couldn't stop watching. It’s a love letter to the early 2000s pop culture that made us who we are!Have a story or a topic you’d love us to chat about on the pod?
