    Sasheer’s Got Something in Her Eye

    Sasheer’s Got Something in Her Eye

    Friends! Sasheer has something in her eye and Nicole helps her clear her sight. Also, nobody was prepared for the arm choreography in the Tom Cruise movie Minority Report. Sasheer had a mechanical bull ride at her party and Nicole enjoyed it so much, she wants to find a mechanical dick to ride. They both found out that there is no brick and mortar business in California for a mechanical penis ride. Nicole hates the term lover and thinks we should get rid of the words “boyfriend” and “girlfriend.” Plus, they answer your questions about a friend forgetting birthdays, advice on celebrating Mother’s Day when you’re grieving and whether or not Sasheer’s Team Pacey or Team Dawson.

Nicole thinks kids should follow their passions. Plus, they answer your questions about hanging out with partners' friends, how to find closure in a complicated relationship and how to support a friend in a 90-day fiancé situation.

    Sasheer Is Waiting with Bated Breath

    Sasheer Is Waiting with Bated Breath

    We all miss the old days of TV where you got 22 episodes a season. This week, Sasheer talks about finishing Dawson’s Creek (WARNING - light yet non-specific spoilers ahead) and Nicole counts dick-sightings on Queer as Folk. Jordan is having a bowl of milk-less cereal, leading Nicole and Sasheer to wax nostalgic over their favorite childhood cereals. Nicole likes to have sky meals on the ground, but is not a coleslaw queen. They discuss the plot of Never Been Kissed, a mom who punched a teacher, the perfection of Golden Arm, the work of director Sam Raimi, and the musical episode of Xena: Warrior Princess. Then they answer listener questions about their experiences doing improv comedy and awkward run-ins with neighbors.
