    Solo Stoned Episode: The Lesbian Mafia, 2.5mg Edibles, & the Gilded Age | Cross My Heart #12

    It's another Solo Stoned episode! I answered your questions, reviewed everything I watched and read, went deep on the Gilded Age, and accidentally got too high to finish the episode.  We talked about: turning down Ozempic ads, the lesbian mafia (my ex-girlfriends network of favors), The Sheep Detectives, Big Mistakes, Famesick by Lena Dunham, Piranesi, why Great Gatsby still hits in 2026, old money vs. new money, Mother's Day when you don't have a mom, dressing like your younger self, my '90s mom summer era, and the time I went to prom. Known for her viral "Tube top" video and "Dear Daddy God" diary series on TikTok, Hannah dives deep into the messy but beautiful reality of growing up queer in the Midwest.
