  1. Why Is Everyone So Annoying Lately? Hot Takes Part 2

    Why Is Everyone So Annoying Lately? Hot Takes Part 2

    On this Christmas Day episode of The Lo Life, Lo and Hayley unwrap your most unfiltered hot takes — the everyday annoyances that feel small until they absolutely are not. From Costco sample hoarders acting like it’s their last meal, to people riding your bumper in standstill traffic just to end up 15 feet ahead, to guests who show up unprepared and start cooking in your clean kitchen — nothing is off limits. The conversation spirals into modern etiquette (or the complete lack of it): gentle parenting gone too far, phones at green lights, speakerphone calls in public, rogue shopping carts, aggressive board-game energy, unsolicited group chats, loud chewing, fake urgency sales, influencer “RUNNNN” culture, AI videos, scam calls, and why not everything needs to be “protein-ized.” It’s funny, validating, slightly unhinged, and exactly what you need while hiding in the bathroom or going for a walk after Christmas dinner. Consider this your permission slip to feel sane again. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

  2. P Diddy Drama & The Hot Takes No One Wants to Say Out Loud

    12/19/2025

    P Diddy Drama & The Hot Takes No One Wants to Say Out Loud

    In this episode of The Lo Life, Lo is joined by one of his closest friends and creative soulmates—Hayley Orrantia, a true multi-hyphenate powerhouse: producer, writer, singer, director, and actress. What unfolds is an unfiltered, wildly entertaining conversation that feels like sitting at the kitchen table with two best friends who are equal parts thoughtful, funny, and just a little feral. The episode kicks off with a deep dive into the P. Diddy documentary produced by 50 Cent, currently trending worldwide. Lo and Hayley unpack their reactions, share unfiltered takes, and explore the cultural ripple effects of a documentary everyone seems to be talking about—but few are brave enough to dissect honestly. From there, the conversation takes a sharp (and hilarious) turn into petty grievances and hot takes—specifically, what we are collectively leaving behind in 2025. Nothing is off-limits. From people who sneeze excessively, mysterious “unnecessary” allergies, and line cutters, to house guests who don’t remove their shoes or forget how to act when invited into someone’s home—Lo and Hayley say what everyone else is thinking but won’t say out loud. The opinions are bold. The energy is chaotic in the best way. The vibe? Straight. No. Chaser. It’s unapologetic, a little unhinged, unexpectedly heartwarming, and laugh-out-loud funny—exactly why Lo Lifers keep coming back. So buckle up, press play, and get ready for a candid, hilarious, and deeply relatable conversation that proves sometimes the best therapy is telling the truth with your best friend.

    How to Stay Forever Young: The Secret to a Life That Feels Alive

    This week, Lo sits down with world-renowned acting coach and motivational force Bernard Hiller, a man who believes your life is a movie, and you’re the star who’s forgotten just how powerful the script can be. In this episode, Bernard shares the mindset shifts that transform ordinary days into “wow moments” and reveal what’s actually possible when you stop playing small. Together, Lo and Bernard unpack why so many people struggle to ask for help, why emotion is a strength rather than a liability, and how staying forever young in your curiosity and excitement can completely change the way you move through the world. If you’ve ever felt stuck, disconnected from your purpose, or unsure how to create the life you want, this conversation offers a fresh perspective you won’t see coming. In true Lo Life fashion, this episode is inspiring, cinematic, and full of the kind of wisdom that hits you exactly when you need it. Consider it your invitation to rethink your story — and maybe even rewrite it.

    When the Life You Built Isn’t Working Anymore

    This week on The Lo Life, Lo is joined by Amanda Goetz, entrepreneur, mother of three, and bestselling author of Toxic Grit, for a raw conversation about burnout, reinvention, and what happens when the life you built stops fitting who you’re becoming. Amanda has rebuilt her world more than once, and she brings a brutally honest, deeply relatable perspective to what real change looks like. Together, Lo and Amanda unpack the hidden signs that something in your life has run its course, the pressure to keep it all together, and the emotional thresholds we ignore until they force us to pay attention. Amanda shares the mindset shift behind her 10x10x10 rule and the clarity it brings when everything feels overwhelming — from identity shifts to relationships to ambition. If you’re feeling stuck, stretched thin, or ready for your next chapter, this conversation will give you the lens, language, and permission you didn’t know you needed.

  5. What We're Grateful For....and What We're Absolutely Not with Hayley Orrantia

    11/27/2025

    What We're Grateful For....and What We're Absolutely Not with Hayley Orrantia

    Lo teams up with his sister-from-another-mister, actress and producer Hayley Orrantia, for a hilarious, heart-squeezing holiday special that goes way beyond the turkey. The duo dives into what they’re thankful for… and very much NOT thankful for (because honesty is the true holiday spice). From southern staples that make Lo reach for the stretchy pants to classic dishes that deserve permanent retirement, Lo and Hayley break down the Thanksgiving menu with unapologetic candor and chef’s-kiss comedy. But this episode isn’t just about food. It’s for everyone navigating the holiday season, no matter your reality. Maybe Thanksgiving isn’t your thing. Maybe you’re skipping dinner with the toxic side of the family. Maybe you’re celebrating with your chosen crew… or maybe you’re riding solo on the couch wrapped like a human burrito. Wherever you are, Lo and Hayley are here to remind you: you’ve got family right here in the Lo Life cult coven — your cozy, judgment-free zone to laugh, decompress, and feel a little less alone. The banter is prime, the friendship is real, and the heart is full. Whether you love the holidays, dread them, or are just trying to make it through your seasonal depression in one piece, this episode is the warm, green-bean-casserole-energy blanket your soul needs to kick off the holiday season.

  6. Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy: My Texas Awakening

    11/20/2025

    Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy: My Texas Awakening

    In this week’s episode, Lo is joined by actress, singer, producer and Dallas Texas native Hayley Orrantia. They take the Lo Lifers deep into their Texas takeover — from Dallas culture shocks to full-blown southern awakenings. Lo enjoyed his first-ever cattle walk, discovered the chaotic glory of Buc-ee’s, and had a spiritual experience with Whataburger (jury’s still out). The duo breaks down the unhinged magic of garters and mums, the Texan traditions that left Lo questioning every California school dance he ever attended. They spill on the restaurants that were overhyped, the spots that earned the official Lo Life Stamp of Approval, and Lo’s favorite neighborhood in Dallas that low-key feels like its own world. Hayley also dishes on performing at a massive LGBTQ+ gala — yes, 2,000 gays turning up in the middle of conservative Texas — complete with a charity auction, drag-level energy, and enough sequins to blind a longhorn. Then it’s time for their new game “Texas or NAH?”, where Lo tests Hayley’s Lone Star patriotism and exposes just how seriously Texans take… being Texan. It’s an easy, hilarious, comfort-listen with tons of culture, chaos, and cowboy energy. A perfect escape episode.

    Stop Waiting. Start Building the Life You Want

    In this week’s episode, Lo sits down with powerhouse entrepreneur and author Betsy Fore, whose new book Built on Purpose is already inspiring a wave of next-generation creators, leaders, and changemakers. Betsy gets real about the journey behind the success — the messy parts, the private fears, the big leaps, and the “start before you’re ready” mindset that helped her transform a simple idea into a multimillion-dollar business. She opens up about motherhood, identity, confidence, and the pressure to “do it all,” sharing the vulnerable moments that shaped her into the leader she is today. This is an episode for anyone standing on the edge of a new chapter — the entrepreneurs, the dreamers, the people who know they’re meant for more but haven’t taken the first step. If you’ve ever felt held back by fear, self-doubt, or the story you tell yourself about what’s possible, Betsy’s insights and lived experience will light a fire in you. This conversation is honest, empowering, and a reminder that you don’t need permission to build the life you feel called to create.

  8. Stop Dating Down: Raising Your Standards Starts Here

    Stop Dating Down: Raising Your Standards Starts Here

    This episode is a candid conversation about dating, self-worth, and the relationships that actually sustain us. Lo and his guest, author Rory Uphold, unpack the patterns that lead us to date down, ignore our intuition, and settle for less than we deserve. They talk about what it looks like to finally choose yourself — to raise your standards, set boundaries when needed, and step fully into your worth. A big part of that growth centers around friendship. Lo challenges the cultural obsession with romantic partnership and the idea that “low-maintenance” friendships are something to strive for. Instead, he highlights how meaningful, emotionally present friendships can provide a deeper sense of fulfillment and support than many romantic relationships ever will — and how our loneliness epidemic ties back to neglecting those bonds. This episode is a reminder that there isn’t one timeline or one definition of a full life. Whether you want marriage, kids, independence, or something entirely different, you are allowed to choose the life that fits you. It’s honest, warm, empowering — and a call to stop settling for crumbs in love and in community.
