    31. Straight by Chance

    It’s June! Which means Pride, our birthday, and maybe a secret 3rd thing (or not)! Lauren and Sarah read their very first fan email and offer some advice, if you can call it that... Then we’re sharing stories about pride. The good, the bad, and the ugly. We also try a TikTok trend audibly, convince you to watch our new obsession, Widow’s Bay, and remind you that “it’s okay to be straight”!

    30. Bled Through by Chance

    It's that time of the month! A new episode just dropped, just like our unfertilized eggs! Get ready to talk all things periods and reproductive health on this TMI episode. Lauren and Sarah don't shy away from the nitty-gritty. They're talking about bleeding through their pants, learning to insert a tampon, and secretly getting birth control. But first, they have to discuss all the new media they've been watching (if you don't want any spoilers, skip to 12:02)!!

    29. Beatin' It by Chance

    We’re going to the doctor! Any and all-- that includes hot dentists and urgent care. Clearly, the sisters need some toning up cause Lauren is hopped up on antibiotics, and Sarah has a hiccup (just 1). There’s a heat wave in NYC, so they’re sharing ways to stay cool and stories about terrible sunburns, being embarrassingly pale, and sitting on a giant ice block. So crack open an ice-cold Schweppes and start listening! P.S. Sarah insisted on this title, and Lauren made her write that in this description.

    28. Motherhood by Chance

    We’re taking after each other and our mothers! It’s a Mother’s Day episode, and we only mention no longer having one a few times...we promise. We’re sharing some favorite stories from our maternal side, including a diet of exclusively Häagen-Dazs ice cream bars, Irish goodbyeing a college drop off, and the pinnacle of mother/daughter relationships: gossiping. So spoil your mom this Sunday and maybe play her this episode! Hosts: Lauren and Sarah Cocroft Cover Art by Xavier Maurice Theme Music by Evan Panzer Follow Us!

    27. Shacket by Chance

    It is the older sibling's role to teach their younger sibling about the horrors of the world and marionette puppets?? Lauren and Sarah are back! We’re catching up on Dr. Google diagnoses, friends from out of town, and the spring closet cleanout of ‘26. Lauren is convinced she invented “shacket”, Sarah only packed for college with a few hours to spare, and Fred… !

    26. Composting by Chance

    Another week, another musical (rev your engines, we have another one scheduled for tomorrow!). Lauren and Sarah have their annual fight™️ aftershocks on the pod and then talk about a touchy subject: chores. The alternate saying for this podcast is “roommates by choice”, through the highs, lows, and endless dishes.

    25. #1 Fan by Choice with the Pla Sisters

    Crack open a cold one (La Croix), we’re in the heat again, and we saw a new musical! No surprises, we have a lot of opinions. A week of wins for the Cocroft sisters; Lauren is going viral, and Sarah made it to the semifinals of her online competition game. They’re then joined by the Pla sisters: Victoria, Caroline, and Alexandra. 3 sisters AND a pair of twins, this episode has it all! Just because we’re sisters and share a birthday doesn’t make us the same. We talk dream kids birthday parties and the best swing sets you could imagine. We end with the sweetest “By Choice” segment! If you’re in NYC, check out Victoria’s comedy show, Camp Virgo on May 4th at Caveat.

    24. Flutesville Fluties by Chance

    Remember, a job is just working to get paid (and also some benefits [maybe]). You better work! Lauren and Sarah are detailing the jobs they’ve had and the roles they’ve played. It’s never too late for us to achieve our dream jobs: being a cow and saving the ponies. Bonus!! We tell our first kiss stories.
