Give us a 12 minute standing O! We let it rip in our charged episode unpacking all of the school nonsense and other mom crap we deal with. In other nonsense we discuss: the situationship of Sydney Sweeney and Scooter Braun, that crazy catfish Netflix documentary, the Venice Film Festival the lovely Emma Hemming Willis, Chloe Grace 👰, Chloe Malle at Vogue, Paris Hilton’s new abode/city, and Mario Lopez’s fashion 👖. In TV news, we discuss the new cast of Dancing with the Stars and so much more. I Mean…who can clap and stand for 15 minutes without rolling their eyes like our logo? 🙄

I mean…if ever there was a time to celebrate 🎉 💍, it’s now!!! Congrats to T & T on their engagement and, in honor of it, we give you our longest podcast in the books!

I Mean…why didn’t we think of K-Pop Demon Hunters?

We also discuss With Love, Meghan and a recap of AJLT’s series finale. 😬 I Mean…cooking is love even if it’s catfish bolognese.

In this down-home country episode, Nicole and Karen try and process their experience from their baked goods results from their local county fair. 🍪🍓. Needless to say, the judges have questionable palates. We felt it only right to turn ourselves into being the judges of the various pop culture events of the week especially the Sánchez- Bezos Venetian wedding as we try and make sense of everyone’s fashion choices as well as the odd guest list. We anxiously await the results from the Diddy trial and discuss the predictions on what may or may not happen. We also review the new F1 Movie with Brad 🥑, Netflix’s Sirens, The Bear 🐻, and Chrisley’s quick return to TV. We are grateful Beyoncé made it down safely from her suspended car. I Mean…What a Professional!
