    Charleston Called Out: A Local-ish Perspective

    In this episode, we talk about Charleston hot takes that'll probably get us uninvited from a few parties. We cover everything from Rainbow Row to King Street, the trust fund baby energy, what it means to be "local-ish" after almost a decade here, and why the food scene actually lives up to the hype. We play overrated vs. underrated with Charleston staples and read some of your spicy listener submissions. Whether you're from Charleston or just love a good roast of where you live, this episode is for you. New episodes every Thursday at 8am. Have a question or story you want us to talk about?

    Perfect Sleep Schedules and Morning Yoga: Routines We Respect (But Will Never Have)

    In this episode, we talk about our daily routines and how they compare to the perfect versions we see online. We cover morning chaos, night routines that barely exist, and the in-between habits that actually keep us functional. We also play Routine Roulette where we guess each other's real routines and get completely called out for the things we say we do but don't. Whether you're here for validation that your routine is also a mess or just want to laugh at ours, this episode is proof that no one actually has it together in the mornings.

    Stop Shrinking Yourself: A Love Letter to the 'Too Much' Friends

    In this episode, we talk about being the friend everyone calls "too much." We cover what it feels like to always be the loud one, the dramatic one, or the one who cares too hard, and why we're done making ourselves smaller to make other people comfortable. We share stories about the friends who celebrated us versus the ones who made us feel like we needed to shrink, and we get real about when we've made each other feel that way too. Whether you're here for the validation, the stories, or just to feel seen, this episode is a permission slip to stop apologizing for who you are. New episodes every Thursday!

    Ringing in the New Year: Our Ins and Outs for 2026

    In this episode, we talk about our ins and outs for 2026, and we came prepared with opinions. We each share our top 10 ins and 10 outs, covering everything from health and money to relationships and how we're showing up this year. We get honest about what's actually working, what needs to go, and the standards we're setting whether people like it or not. We disagree on a few things, laugh at ourselves, and probably call you out at least once. Whether you're here for the chaos, the relatability, or just need someone to say what you've been thinking, this one's for you. New episodes every Thursday!
