From trends (like denim-covered cowboy boots) to their favorite style follows, we touched on as much as we possibly could over the course of our longest episode ever.

    Announcement: The Sunday Scaries Podcast

    Well, it was time. The Sunday Scaries Podcast is pressing pause for a bit. While there are numerous reasons behind this, I'm actually incredibly excited to take a much-needed break and allow Retail Therapy to grow into itself. I'll be in touch — I promise.

Retail therapy is great but it’s a different show

I love both the OG Scaries and the new Retail Therapy, but they really need to be separate feeds. They are totally different shows. I dropped Men in Blazers when they started the dozen different shows in a single feed strategy.

Frankie Nicco ,

Retail on Sunday’s Coattails

Retail therapy is fun and all but it should really be its own title. Will happily Refollow when the true Scaries Pod comes back.
