Humbug
Hello babies!
A very Merry Christmas to all the Bougie Grinch Girls out there! A not so Merry Christmas to the worms that are trying to enter Emily's house. Related: we dig up dirt on certain Selling Sunset stars. On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for "Humbug," a person or object that behaves in a deceptive or dishonest way, often as a hoax or in jest. -
Costco Hot Dog
Hello babies!
The holiday season is here, and the Baby Geniuses Podcast is your one stop shop for great gift ideas! Is there someone in your life who likes the finer things and whose body is 100% covered in thick green fur? We have the PERFECT PNG for you. On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for "Costco Hot Dog," a 1/4lb hot dog sold at the international warehouse club Costco's food courts. At $1.50, it is the Costco food court's second best deal (onions are free). -
Spitting
Hello babies!
Thank you for tuning in for our special CYBER MONDAY episode! Listen for great money saving tips that will literally save you THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS. And by that I mean Emily shares how to avoid being phished. She learned the hard way! On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for "Spitting," the act of forcibly ejecting saliva or other substances from the mouth. -
Bark Mitzvah
Hello babies!
Lisa is back from New York with a new obsession and Emily blows off a little steam about a less than sexy period drama. On Chunch Chat, Martha struggles with a mistaken identity and falls for an invasive species. On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia article for "Bark Mitzvah," which is either a tongue in cheek celebration for beloved pets or a desecration of a cherished Jewish tradition. -
Stingy Jack
Hello babies!
Boo! Was that spooky enough for ya? If not, Emily and Lisa are sharing some stories that just might chill you down to your core.. That is, if your SKELETON HASN'T ALREADY JUMPED OUT OF YOUR SKIN! I shudder to imagine such a thing. Lisa shares an interaction that she had with possibly an actual GHOUL and Emily serves up a literal jump scare mid segment. On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for "Stingy Jack," a mythical character sometimes associated with All Hallows Eve. -
Customer Reviews
A wonderfully comforting and hilarious listen
The sounds of your laughter brighten my mood instantly (: So infectious. I think you are doing a great service. Both wonderful, inquisitive ladies.
Poop, ponies pals
It's refreshing to hear a podcast hosted by two lady friends who delve into weird subjects and have no qualms discussing poop. A great mix of horse news, random facts, and funny non-facts. Lisa and Emily are awesome by themselves, but even greater together, like peanut butter and chocolate.
Terrible
I tried listening to baby geniuses a few years ago and, to put it nicely, it wasn’t for me (to put it accurately it’s REALLY bad and the hosts are annoying). Recently I heard an ad for the podcast that stated it’s “for adult idiots”, which, at least they’re being honest with their advertising now (using the word “geniuses” in the title of the podcast feels a lot like false advertising even if it’s preceded by the word baby). To make the ad entirely accurate tho it really should have said “for adult idiots, by adult idiots”
Do yourself a favor and skip this garbage fire
