Desire of the Sluggard
Well… it’s Sloth time. It’s Sluggard mode. This week we talk about the Deadly Sin that feels most like a personal attack. It’s time to discuss the implications of slothing about. But FIRST- the solar eclipse, our updates for the week, and a Seatbelt Check/Roadside Attraction for Mary Oliver’s poem “The Sun”. Why do people devalue popular art? Why do we feel like authorities on what can be beautiful? This episode really dances in the theme of living a life that’s full of Noticing & Appreciation. :)

The Place for Ego
Continuing what many are calling a “stunning” limited series, the girls focus on a new sin this week: Ego. We originally called it “Pride” but too many people were thinking… gay. But before this- we chat about jobs, Shakira, Club Chalamet, our personal lives, and the Implications of it all.

I Still Get Jealous!
A love letter episode to you guys this week that centers around jealousy. We want you to shush the little voice inside your head that tells you you’re a bad person for human feelings!

Losing My Religion
The claws come OUT when Ellie gives Michaela a completely unexpected response to Ariana’s new album. If you don’t want to hear your mommies fight you’re gonna wanna skip to 12 minutes in… Then there are some BIG recaps on the Oscars, Kate Middleton, and Ellie’s latest scandal. The main topic for this episode is religious trauma, which has been heavily assisted with submissions from listeners. Although nothing extremely triggering is discussed, just know this episode touches on themes that *could* bring up sensitivities (but hopefully in a positive way).

(Trying To) Like This Little Life
Spring is back and so are Ellie and Michaela, spinning you around in their Volkswagen. Driving you through exhibits of the grave cleaning ladies on Tik Tok, Bradley Cooper’s unnecessary Pop Crave quotes, and a Love is Blind catch up. How would you feel if your partner was good friends with an ex FWB? Then we pull over to read a lovely Mary Oliver poem about hope. :)

Customer Reviews
like facetiming with your besties <3
so good especially for the chronically online girlies. these girls are so kind and honest and vulnerable and their stories will help you get through a breakup or help push you to be better. been binging this pod and don’t plan on stopping! longtime fan of both gals since 2018 and forever supporter 🤍🤍
Gossiping in the car with your friends
I have been following Ellie and Michaela since 2018! (Throwback to when Michaela had like 3 Twitter accounts and would comment back and forth between them) They are hilarious, down to earth and entertaining. This podcast feels like gossiping with your girlfriends in the car. They are the older sisters I never had. LOVE the pod!! Glad to see the direction it’s going 🤍
Please get rid of Michaela and the mindless talking the entire episodes
I used to be a fan when it was just Ellie and Alanna and they talked about relationships and life. I’ve tried to give Ellie and Michaela a listen, but can’t get over that I’m loosing brain cells the entire episode. They talk about whatever is tending on social media and don’t get into any deep learning topics of give advice on relationships. Also Michaela is god awful to have to listen too.
