    (S1, E12) Red Leather Daddy, Yellow Leather Daddy

    "Buckle up for the latest ride on "Upright and Fancy," where Carra and Chris deliver the summer vibes with a side of unfiltered hilarity, Tarot wisdom, childhood trauma via pickles, and a parade of Olympics hot takes (plus, at least three puns involving seamen). This episode jumps from camp confessions to tales of topless porch hangs, questionable college snacks, and Super Pickle—the sidekick you never knew you needed. Somewhere between boundary songs and dill Havarti detective agencies, you'll get life advice, relationship tips, and a reminder to just be fun, curious, and not a dick. Five out of five fishbowl holes—scintillating, silly, and seriously unhinged (in the best way)." - Burt Reynolds

    (S1, E11) Nefarious Po-Mo Homo

    "In Episode 11 of Upright and Fancy, hosts Carra and Chris deliver another round of witty banter, personal anecdotes and playful hypotheticals.  They dive into childhood nostalgia, recounting awkward firsts with marijuana and sharing sympathetic but light-hearted vomit stories.  A particularly amusing segment involves Carra's child's distrust of Santa Claus and her funny bathroom-themed nicknames for the jolly figure.  Their optimistic outlook and casual tone make for an episode filled with endearing moments and candid humor, inviting listeners to embrace the spectrum of life, queerness and all things fancy." - W. E. B. Du Bois

    (S1, E10) Fjords Are Where the Water Is the One That Did the Business

    "Hold on to your hair-dryer and get ready for a hilariously wild ride into the emotional mane-tenance of life!  In episode 10 of "Upright and Fancy," they dive deep into salon therapy with special guest Lauren, a hair stylist whom brilliantly combines wit and wisdom while juggling scissors and emotions. Craving wanderlust? Travel tales to Portugal, fjords, and Fiji paint a vivid and laugh-laden exploration of dreamy escapes and accidental shrimp-induced romance vomits (yes, really). From fortune cookies to flirtatious medical misadventures, this uproarious episode is an epic blend of heartfelt stories, boundary-setting advice, and gut-busting humor that makes you feel fancy and fabulously entertained. Don't miss out on the fun – tune in, laugh out loud, and keep those bad date horror stories coming!" -Gertrude Stein

The chemistry between Chris and Carra shines through as they banter about everything from their favorite gay icons to their mutual admiration for the TV show Designing Women." - Virginia Woolf
