    What’s Actually Worth Watching Right Now? Our Honest Ratings

    Need something new to watch? We’ve been doing the research. 😂 This week on Slay & Pray, we’re introducing our first-ever Rate My Show — rapid-fire ratings of everything we’ve been watching lately. Some are 10/10s, some surprised us, and some… probably should have stayed off the watchlist. But first, Alisha has suffered her first sourdough casualty — and she’s blaming ChatGPT. We also finally unpack The Four Winds by Kristin Hannah and discuss why apparently we enjoy emotionally destroying ourselves with books. Then it’s time to RATE 👏 THE 👏 SHOWS. We’re talking The Gilded Age, Five Star Weekend, 90210, Earl Meets World, Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, Crew Girl, Lanterns, Don't Say Good Luck, Mayday and more. Plus, Corinna discovers her new favorite flower, gets brutally roasted by her child over her pimple patches, tells a story about a nude beach in Spain that has apparently stayed with her for YEARS, and once again admits she may have done a little too much shopping. Just another mini episode that somehow became… not that mini. ⏰ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 — ENERGY!00:31 — Alisha's first sourdough disaster01:04 — ChatGPT ruined the bread?!03:12 — Our Kristin Hannah era03:22 — Finally talking The Four Winds04:25 — How much sadness is TOO much?07:02 — Marked safe from the Dust Bowl08:56 — Why does Kristin Hannah keep doing this to us?11:28 — Corinna has a new favorite flower13:01 — The hydrangea obsession14:41 — Corinna's pimple patch problem15:10 — So much for not spending money16:44 — Corinna gets roasted by her own child17:48 — We're trying mini episodes18:22 — Introducing: RATE MY SHOW19:05 — The Last Sunrise19:43 — Corinna's unforgettable Spain story23:39 — Alisha is rewatching The Gilded Age24:56 — Five Star Weekend25:31 — Rewatching 9021026:22 — Furious27:00 — Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed27:31 — Forever My Girl27:52 — Earl Meets World28:28 — Secret Lives of Mormon Wives28:43 — Crew Girl29:57 — A podcast interview worth watching30:55 — Lanterns32:10 — A Killer Story32:51 — Don't Say Good Luck33:43 — Mayday34:51 — Final verdict: Who do you trust? 🛍️ SHOP MY STOREShop my favorites: https://bit.ly/4fYBUlk 🌐 SLAY & PRAYVisit us at slayandpraypodcast.com Join Corinna and Alisha for unfiltered conversations about pop culture, motherhood, friendship, books, TV and whatever else makes its way onto the couch.

    Dancing With the Stars First Impressions + Who We’re Watching

    Dancing With the Stars is back — and apparently so is Corinna at 4 A.M. 😂 This week on Slay & Pray, we’re recovering from an insanely busy week, celebrating the fact that Arizona is finally slightly less hot, planning anything-but-basic family photos, and talking about the surprisingly fun parts of watching our kids grow up. Then it’s time for our Dancing With the Stars debrief — and we have THOUGHTS. We’re talking early favorites, contestants who surprised us, judges who need to CALM DOWN, some rough first-night scores, surprising eliminations, Julianne trying to survive live television, and the performances that had us rooting for more. Plus: Corinna’s son has an adorable school performance (and a minor glasses emergency), Alisha shares her own flying-glasses story, Corinna discovers a peanut butter she cannot stop talking about, and we attempt to make this a “mini episode.” Spoiler: We’re not very good at that. ⏰ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 — Watching Dancing With the Stars at 4 A.M.00:50 — Corinna finally gets some sleep01:48 — Our insanely busy week02:43 — Arizona is FINALLY cooling down03:11 — Alisha is planning family photos05:38 — Everyone needs a Coco06:14 — The magic of the “big kid” phase08:06 — Alisha is loving the toddler years09:41 — Corinna cries at a school performance11:17 — The great glasses emergency14:28 — Alisha's flying-glasses story16:27 — We love our Instagram people ❤️17:01 — Corinna's latest peanut butter obsession18:22 — Let's talk Dancing With the Stars!19:37 — One of our early DWTS favorites21:14 — Who are we rooting for?21:48 — The first elimination23:10 — Tatyana Ali takes the floor24:06 — Were the judges too harsh?25:40 — Giada De Laurentiis takes on DWTS26:45 — Julianne's live-TV struggle28:01 — Alisha was NOT impressed28:33 — Why are the judges so mean?!29:52 — The women's elimination31:32 — Julia Stiles rallies32:23 — Our “mini episode” comes to an end32:42 — Slay & Pray giveaway! 🛍️ SHOP MY STOREShop my favorites: https://bit.ly/4fYBUlk 🌐 SLAY & PRAYVisit us at slayandpraypodcast.com Join Corinna and Alisha for unfiltered conversations about pop culture, motherhood, friendship, books, TV and whatever else makes its way onto the couch.

    Laura Marie Meyers on The Mash Up and Millennial Nostalgia

    This week on Slay & Pray, Alisha and Corinna sit down with USA Today bestselling author Laura Marie Meyers to talk about her debut novel, The Mash Up. Laura shares how the idea “girl stuck in a MASH game” lived in her notes app for years, how millennial nostalgia helped shape the book, and why Ruby’s story became about more than just a fun rom-com premise. The conversation dives into lifelong friendships, motherhood, reconnecting with the dreams you had when you were younger, and what it means to stop playing your life small. Plus, we get into all the important things: AIM screen names, You’ve Got Mail, 10 Things I Hate About You, Miss Congeniality, Limited Too, NSYNC vs. Backstreet Boys, and why Alisha may need a full rom-com correction plan.

    We Got Influenced by Instagram Ads… and Bought $50 Peanut Butter

    This week on Slay & Pray, Alisha and Corinna are catching up on a very chaotic week filled with sick kids, toddler fashion opinions, weighted vest life hacks, deflated party balloons, luxury facials, and the Instagram ads that are clearly working way too well. Alisha shares the emotional battle of trying to get her toddler dressed for daycare when all she wanted was a full sparkly ball gown, while Corinna reveals her latest purchase spiral: four jars of boutique peanut butter. From banana bread matcha regret to TikTok turning into QVC, the girls get into the very real danger of being influenced online. They also talk current reads, Bible “life hacks,” The Summer I Turned Pretty, The Gilded Age, Outer Banks, Drew Starkey, Ted Lasso, and why every show somehow becomes a full emotional journey.

    Sourdough, Saving Money & Instacart Balloon Chaos | Slay & Pray Podcast

    One of us is baking homemade sourdough to save money. The other is Instacarting an army of giant balloons. We’ll let you guess who is who. 😂 This week on Slay & Pray, Alisha’s money-saving era has officially become her entire personality — complete with homemade sandwich bread, cheaper hair products and a refusal to buy a $30 hairbrush. Meanwhile, Corinna has the exact opposite problem. Then we need to discuss THE BALLOONS. Corinna attempts to save herself some time by ordering inflated balloons through Instacart, only to end up with a delivery straight out of a clown car, missing balloons, a balloon casualty in the Arizona heat and a driver who repeatedly reminds her that he deserves a bigger tip. Plus, Alisha finally starts Outer Banks, Corinna is deep into her Ted Lasso rewatch, we debate whether we’re Pogues or Kooks, talk about our latest reads and once again mourn the loss of Salad and Go. Oh, and apparently Alisha doesn't brush her hair. Another perfectly normal week at Slay & Pray. ⏰ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 — Is Alisha becoming a trad wife?00:37 — The sourdough era has begun01:49 — Does making bread actually save money?02:47 — Our VERY different spending habits04:05 — The $30 hairbrush debate04:17 — Alisha admits she doesn't brush her hair06:30 — The curly hair defense08:31 — Alisha's Slay of the Week09:58 — Corinna's latest book obsession11:46 — We're STILL mourning Salad and Go14:13 — The Instacart balloon disaster begins15:15 — The driver asks for a bigger tip 😳17:07 — The clown car arrives18:21 — Corinna ordered HOW many balloons?!21:49 — Four balloons never made it23:27 — Should Corinna have tipped him more?25:54 — Sourdough reveal!27:59 — Corinna is binging Ted Lasso29:13 — Our thoughts on Ted Lasso Season 332:21 — Alisha finally watches Outer Banks33:48 — Why Outer Banks is stressing Alisha out35:22 — Getting spoiled by social media36:20 — Alisha belongs in the Outer Banks36:54 — Are we Pogues or Kooks?37:40 — Corinna's documentary obsession40:34 — The danger of listening to your own podcast in public41:20 — We could talk about birth forever42:10 — Bringing it on home, John B. 🛍️ SHOP MY STOREShop my favorites: https://bit.ly/4fYBUlk ✨ SLAY & PRAY Join Corinna and Alisha for unfiltered conversations about pop culture, motherhood, friendships, books, TV, life and whatever chaos makes its way onto the couch. 🌐 VISIT USslayandpraypodcast.com Make sure to like, subscribe and follow Slay & Pray wherever you get your podcasts! #SlayAndPray #Podcast #Sourdough #OuterBanks #TedLasso #Instacart #SavingMoney #PopCulture #BookRecommendations #TVRecommendations

    Harry Jowsey Noticed Us?! + Armchair Expert, TV Obsessions & More

    Harry Jowsey noticed us. Armchair Expert reposted us. And somehow that's only the beginning of this week's chaos. 😂 Corinna and Alisha are back on the couch talking about everything they're watching, reading and obsessing over — including Lucky, Silo, Friends & Neighbors, The Dink, Jury Duty and the books currently taking over their lives. Corinna shares her very exciting Harry Jowsey interaction (which Alisha tries her absolute best to be excited about), plus the moment Armchair Expert reshared Slay & Pray. They also get into the Idaho college murders after listening to Christopher Whitcomb's interview about The Broken Plea and discuss some of the questions surrounding the case. Plus: Alisha finally reads the books Corinna has been assigning her, Salad and Go is gone and they're still mourning, Lisa's Literary Corner is officially becoming a thing, and a conversation about birth turns into some very memorable labor-room stories. Basically, it's another completely normal episode of Slay & Pray. ⏰ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 — School's back & we're back in a routine01:29 — Slay & Pray of the week04:52 — Alisha finally finished Corinna's book recommendation06:17 — Lisa's Literary Corner07:12 — Alisha starts The Mashup09:05 — Is Corinna an empath?10:11 — The #1 rule for long workdays13:01 — Alisha's scary heat exhaustion story15:35 — RIP Salad and Go 💔18:54 — Corinna watches Let's Marry Harry20:29 — Harry Jowsey commented on our post?!22:16 — DeuxMoi shared Slay & Pray24:20 — Lisa's important birth PSA26:02 — Alisha's Bradley Method birth experience32:24 — Our Armchair Expert moment 🍒33:41 — Diving into the Idaho college murders42:26 — Alisha reviews The Dink45:21 — Is Lucky worth watching?46:42 — Corinna finally watches Silo49:55 — Why Alisha loves Apple TV50:42 — Friends & Neighbors55:38 — Why you need to watch Jury Duty56:23 — Corinna's latest book recommendation57:31 — Finishing Scandal... again58:53 — Until next time! 🛍️ SHOP MY STOREShop our favorites here: https://bit.ly/4fYBUlk 💖 ABOUT SLAY & PRAYJoin Corinna and Alisha for unfiltered conversations about pop culture, motherhood, friendships, books, TV, life and whatever else makes its way onto the couch. ✨ Subscribe so you don't miss a new episode of Slay & Pray! #SlayAndPray #Podcast #HarryJowsey #ArmchairExpert #PopCulture #Silo #Lucky #FriendsAndNeighbors #BookRecommendations #TVRecommendations

    How Have You NEVER Seen Practical Magic?!

    This week on Slay & Pray, Corinna and Alisha are talking books, TV, movies, bruised butts, making their first dollars from the podcast, and one truly ridiculous shark movie. 😂 First, Alisha is officially doing her homework and reading Dolly All the Time ahead of a VERY exciting upcoming author interview. Meanwhile, Corinna is celebrating the fact that Slay & Pray has actually made money — even if they’re currently debating how to split their whopping earnings. 💰 Then Corinna tells the story of FALLING DOWN THE STAIRS and somehow sends the conversation spiraling into butt bruises, longboarding accidents, idyllic summers on Lake Minnetonka and the realization that maybe her obsession with summer romance books goes deeper than anyone realized. Then it’s time for Chaos on the Couch! Corinna made Alisha watch Devil’s Mouth, and they have THOUGHTS. Sharks? Underwater caves? Hot people in Thailand? Every possible young-adult movie trope? Somehow it has all the ingredients of a good movie while also being completely ridiculous. Plus, they’re talking Lucky, Ted Lasso, Silo, Wicker, Practical Magic and what they’re watching next.
