A community for people who hate leaving the house but also want friendship. Talking about things we find fascinating or don't understand and almost certainly getting completely sidetracked along the way with well, tangents.

Excessive talking? Lock me up! - ADHD

Jan 21 2025 74 mins  
You’ll be just as shocked as we were to learn that after 5 years with mics, two diagnoses and a very clear theme of tangents- we have never actually had an episode on ADHD. We may have spent years and years exhibiting all of the traits, but only now have we broken down what it really looks like to be a person with a differently functioning brain.

Finish the soup, you son of a b*tch - Herstory of Aqua Tofana

Jan 14 2025 70 mins  
Have you ever heard of inheritance powder? No? What about an elixir that drips straight from the bones of St. Nicholas? Not that one either? In the 1600’s you could call it whatever you want, as long as you keep it quiet. Thanks to the big brain work of women in Italy, quick trip to the apothecary is all you need to purchase your freedom from a life as property, I mean holy matri

Growth often masquerades as foolishness at first - 2025 Horoscope

Jan 07 2025 84 mins  
We had so much fun reflecting on what the internet had predicted for our 2024 that we decided it was only fitting to see what the stars and algorithms believe are in store for us for 2025. It may come as surprise to absolutely no one that the universe and co-star agree, everything's coming up CiCi and Jeri will have to endure more self inflicted chaos. One of us is vehemently rejec

Thriving and throbbing into 2025 - New Year's Reflection

Dec 31 2024 90 mins  
Our longest running tradish strikes again. Before 2024 breathes its last breath and 2025 kool-aid man's in to blow our backs out, we invite you to pause with us in the inbetween. There's so much to reflect on when the jump from '23 to '24 was this aggressive.

It's Kentucky Fried Christmas - Christmas Around the World

Dec 24 2024 61 mins  
There's a very good chance that the traditions shared in this episode have been covered in years past. Luckily for the two idiots on the couch, our minds resemble those of gold fish and we often forget what we've discussed on here. Luckily part two for us, Ciara did remember just how much we loved a middle school band concert and brought us a little treat to enjoy at the beginning

So dead, so poopy, so Ladies & Tangents - Holiday Scandals

Dec 17 2024 78 mins  
The title of this episode is somewhat misleading- not the so poopy so dead part, that's actually bizarrely accurate but if you're having trouble figuring out how those things connect to the holidays, know you're not alone. Ciara typed *christmas* into the email search bar and for whatever reason, death was a central theme. While poop wasn't mentioned as much, it still is our podcas

The straw that broke the squirrel in half - Florida Man Stories

Dec 10 2024 84 mins  
It isn't often that a meme works it's way into everyday vernacular, but once in a while, when all the stars align, iconic phenomena such as The Florida Man becomes a universally known marvel. Without any context at all, you've already created an image in your head and it is an unhinged one at that. We've found some top tier Florida Man/Woman stories that are sure to reinforce that

How high do you sing when you’re inauthentic? - Wicked

Dec 03 2024 69 mins  
Something has changed within us, something is not the same…that’s right. We’re not regular ladies anymore, we’re wicked women. Somehow we remained completely oblivious to the storyline of the musical for the entire 30 years of its existence and now, much like everyone else who has entered the universe of Oz, it is now our entire personality. Hangout while we deep dive into

Smell the flowers, blow out the candles, light your house on fire - Functional Freeze

Nov 26 2024 69 mins  
If there's one thing millenials love doing, it's adding the word *functional* in front of scary words to make them less harsh. This week we're prepping for the inevitable marathon panic attack also known as the holiday season by learning about a cute little trauma response that we may or may not have adopted after years and years of being forced to work while experiencing global ag

Party foul, my teeth are everywhere - Sharing Your Scandals

Nov 19 2024 80 mins  
It's a listener story schmergusbourg. I think I spell it differently every time I include it in a description. You know the drill, people send in their poop, scandal, ghost stories and we interrupt them constantly with arguably unimportant anecdotes of our own.
