Actor/Content Creator Meghan Rienks and Producer/Writer/Director Melisa Monts are like every other person with access to a microphone, they started a podcast. But to be fair they’ve been at it for a while.
It all began with one show which led to another, but as they say, more is more. 
On Mondays they release Don’t Blame Me!, which is an advice podcast where listeners call in and we share our thoughts on situations such as “What to do if you’re going to your boyfriend’s family function and you haven’t told him that you previously slept with both his twin brothers.”
Then on Thursdays they release But Am I Wrong?, where they ethically gossip about pop culture, politics, their lives, and the listener's  lives. Listeners write in and Meghan and Melisa tell them if they’re wrong or right in a situation. 
On Tuesdays and Fridays they throw in a little something extra as well. 
Meghan and Melisa strive to create community, grounded in activism, mental health, and inclusively. Think of them as your blunt, honest friends who give you the advice you need to hear, not what you want to hear, but are rooting for your success. What they lack in credentials, they make up in opinions.
They’re  professional unprofessionals. So if you’re looking for a new slate of podcasts to add to your routine, we’re here for you.

    SYNT: New WNBA Fans

    SYNT: New WNBA Fans

    This week, Meghan regales Melisa (again) with tales of Chapel Roan. Meghan visits her neighbors with chickens and tell them of Melisa's love of Grease Live. Plus, Mariska Hargitay proves she's a hero on and off-screen!
    In true WNBA fan fashion, the dynamic duo celebrates Caitlyn Clark's SNL appearance and reminisce about Kyla Pratt's iconic WNBA commercial intro. Meghan finally catches up on Hustlers, and Melisa gears up to film her movie. But things take a hilarious turn when pogo stick woes and a Bison butchering confession come to light.
    Tune in for laughs, girl power, and a whole lot of fun!

pH

Hello! I was listening to your podcast, and when I heard you talking about pH I thought, I know this!!

pH values are expressed on a scale of 0-14 with 7 being neutral. This means that any value between 0-6.9 is acidic, and 7.1-14 is basic/alkaline. The optimal pH for human blood is 7.35-7.45. pH values are determined by the quantity of hydrogen ions present in a substance, with a low pH having more hydrogen ions (making it acidic), and high pH having less hydrogen ions (making it alkaline).

That is all, thanks for creating fun podcasts!

Fake allyship, fake activism

Their silence on the current situation in the world is deafening. It’s never been more clear that Meghan only cares when an issue directly impacts her as a white privileged woman. She posts a few instagram stories but then still advertises her amazon storefront?? Girl bffr. This used to be my absolute favourite podcast because they actually seemed to stand for something, but after this I have lost all respect. You should truly be ashamed of this fake ally fake activist persona you take advantage of.

The best pod ever!!!! 🧚‍♀️🫦😝🥵🤩🥰😘💌

I’ve been listening for so long and has been my most consistently listened to podcast! Meghan and Melisa are always out here educating me, being fabulous and funny. I honestly feel like this podcast has changed my life for the better!!! I also was unbothered when Bing Bong died. Lol.
