Comedians and lifelong tyrants Grace Ryan and Andrea Wurzburger categorize the entire universe to determine once and for all what is in and what is out. This is a 100% fact-based show where the evidence comes from our brains, the research isn't something we have time to get into, and nobody is ever wrong unless we says so.

"All's fair in love and Timbersports"

Jan 30 2025 36 mins  
Cue the inspirational music because Grace and Andrea are back with some more ins and outs! Andrea is learning to love her swim cap, Grace has found the exhilarating world of Timbersports, and the pair ask the question on everyone's minds: is a lizard better in the wild or when being held against its will? Ok, gotta go live adjacent to the moment now! Grace Ryan: ⁠⁠⁠⁠�

"Are you Innie or Outie (belly button)?"

Jan 16 2025 34 mins  
It's a new year but the same old us. On this week's episode, Andrea tries to find the German word for how much she loves her hot water bottle, Grace's late grandma visits her via medium, and they both wonder if adults have outie belly buttons. Andrea is watching through the Marvel movies (but thinks there's not enough kissing) and if you were thinking about inviting

"Will that be in RegularD or 3D?"

Happy birthday Grace! This week, Andrea is determined to make a (somewhat musical) episode even though Grace hates the Happy Birthday song. We dive into our Spotify Wrapped (in for Grace, out for Andrea), the uncontrollable urge for a man who years (out for Grace, in for Andrea) and both agree that it's great to be the young age of [redacted for a bit of mystery]. Featuring: a spec

"It's giving...thanks!"

HAPPY THANKSGIVING! It's a very special Thanksgiving (well, also Wicked) themed episode. Andrea and Grace reveal what they're thankful for (hint: Grace's involves stairs), discuss their favorite Thanksgiving foods, and geek out about Wicked for an amount of time that won't make non-fans turn the episode off. They have some notes about the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and discover

"Don't want to be a part of it: New York, New York"

This week on the pod, we discuss the highs and lows of karaoke, whether or not we should have daylight saving time, Grace's disdain for baths (lately), and if dogs belong in clothing (costumes are a whole other thing). Andrea gets judged by a Nespresso employee (and loves it), and Grace reveals that the FFA (Future Farmers of America, of course) has always been in for her! Grace R

"The loneliness calls"

Oct 31 2024 48 mins  
Don't you wanna dance (DANCE!) with us, baby? Andrea and Grace have a surprisingly bathroom-centric list of ins and outs this week. Grace recounts a traumatizing trip to Medieval Times, Andrea googles "Marie Antoinette WHEN" and it's a whole thing, and they both wonder if we should just be eating M&Ms instead of trail mix. Grace Ryan: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@formerdisgrace⁠⁠⁠

"That's the cobblestone hill I'll die on"

Oct 17 2024 52 mins  
We're back and answering a question Descartes (who is not a modern man, in case you were wondering) himself was too scared to ask: What time is morning? And for that matter, what time is night? Andrea and Grace discuss childhood blankies, the audacity of brands to charge $100 for a polyblend vest, and finally give everyone their opinions on PSLs (we know you were waiting). We'd say

"I will sue, I'm very litigious"

Oct 03 2024 54 mins  
Andrea & Grace issue a once-in-a-lifetime correction about dog movies (and are not happy about it) (don’t expect Andrea to do that ever again, she hated it). Andrea expresses a deep, abiding love for little pranks (even though she almost scared her own sister into using pepper spray on her on the street). Grace attempts to describe her signature scent (even though she can’t

"Small town chest, big city dreams"

Sep 19 2024 46 mins  
This week, Grace decides tankinis are out, Andrea wants celebrities to do their own crisis PR and begs every woman she knows to get a crisis haircut (so she can support them). They also ask the question on everyone's mind right now: When was the last dog movie?!?! Oh! And *Grace loves you, Grace's mom! *Andrea writes these descriptions Grace Ryan: ⁠⁠⁠@formerdisgrace

“If you can make it here…why the hell are you here?”

Grace & Andrea talk purple mountains majesty (in) and fruity plains (very in, slay), which American Girl they are, and the magic of a little town we like to call…Atlanta, Georgia? Grace also admits she uses a Stanley Cup & Andrea admits she wishes she were brave enough to become a squatter. Grace Ryan: ⁠⁠@formerdisgrace⁠⁠Andrea Wurzburger: ⁠⁠@a_wurzburger
