Buckle up and hydrate because this one flies from adrenaline highs to mental crash landings 😅 In this episode of Adventures of Des & Cort, we get real about burnout in business and how not everyone understands what it feels like to run on fumes after weeks of go mode. We definitely do 🧠💥

A random 2017 contact nickname popped up in Des’s phone and triggered a full detective-level memory search. Who was that person and why did we call them that?! 📱😂

We dive into the hysterical and mildly terrifying things our parents said while raising us... “your ass is grass and I’m the lawnmower” felt like a legitimate threat back then. Now it’s just content 🌱🚜

Then we switch gears and talk about how true wealth at this stage of life is time. Creating boundaries, knowing our worth and owning our confidence has been our key to protecting it ⏰✨

Oh, and we had thoughts about Ryan Wedding making the FBI Most Wanted list. Like… did you just wake up one day and say “today’s a good day to be a drug lord”? 🙃

Expect rants, hard truths, side tangents and giggles because it wouldn’t be us without them.

🎧 Grab your drink, set your boundaries and let’s roll.

Des returns from Mississippi where she hit a family wedding, conquered Buc-ee’s like it was a competitive sport, visited New Orleans and got taken out by some local seafood 🤢. Meanwhile Cort survived parents’ weekend at the University of Idaho where tailgating turned into frat house karaoke and she is still recovering from the secondhand college energy 🎤🏈.

The girls spiral into Des’s newest obsession which is shortening her upper lip because apparently her face needs a tiny renovation 💅. Cort’s hot flash of the week is the disrespectful combo of freezing mornings, early sunsets and the undeniable urge to sleep until May 💤. Des’s hot flash is that nobody in their small town should ever complain about sidewalks again after witnessing the cracked, chaotic obstacle course that is New Orleans 🚶‍♀️🪤.

They mourn the official end of the penny like it was a distant relative 🪙, launch into a deeply unnecessary debate about who is peeing in the shower 🚿, and confess what adult responsibility they would abandon instantly if they had a year off from work. They also pick their dream jobs while drifting into their signature side rants because staying on topic is simply not their brand.

Prepare for unfiltered stories, questionable logic and friendship-fueled chaos as always 💖🔥.

This week’s episode is a full buffet of chaos, comedy, and confessionals — served with a side of sass and self-awareness. 🍽️💋

Des is back from Monterey, CA and she’s got stories. From a husband asking his wife if she packed his shorts (sir… if you want ‘em, pack ‘em 🩳🙄) to a snoring stranger who might’ve qualified for a full-blown sleep study — this trip had it all. ✈️😴 And don’t even get her started on paper straws and paper coffee cup lids. She’s now officially the woman who packs her own straw. Nothing says aging gracefully like BYOS. 🥤👑

She also had her first solo dinner like the premium adult she is — confident, independent, and unbothered. Until, of course, her husband “had to stop to pee” instead of picking her up at the airport. 🚗😤

Meanwhile, Cort is coming in hot with her own rants. People who text and ghost? Bye. 👋 Mean girls acting like they invented fashion? Honey, Target made ten thousand of that sweater. You are not the main character.💅👜

And speaking of being fooled — those AI-generated videos got Cort questioning everything. Is it real? Is it fake? Is she losing brain cells? Possibly all three. 🤯🤖

We also get into the great Christmas tree debate: nostalgic vs. decorative. 🎄✨ Are you team homemade ornaments or matching aesthetic bulbs? Plus, Cort shares her favorite new love story — herself. 💃🕯️ With her husband away hunting, she poured a glass of wine, lit some candles, blasted old jazzy tunes, and twirled around the house like the romantic main character she was born to be.

It’s the perfect mix of travel fails, seasonal serotonin, self-love, and a dash of digital delusion. ❤️ Tune in toAdventures of Des & Cort on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts!

This week’s episode is packed tighter than Des’s carry-on! We get spicy about public correction culture. Why are people out here hitting reply all or correcting someone in front of a crowd like it’s a sport? Babe, pull someone aside or send a text. You’re not scoring points for humiliation. 🫠🙃

Des is prepping for her trip and is on a mission to pack her entire wardrobe into one carry-on. She’s armed with a vacuum sealer, optimism, and maybe a little delusion. 🧳💨 Cort’s just here to watch it all unfold.

We deep dive into the Netflix documentary The Perfect Neighbor and try to understand why people get so angry. Like, ma’am, if you hate joy and kids, maybe move? 🚪😬

Cort’s serotonin meter hit the roof after a Christmas décor shopping spree. 🎄✨ There’s truly no therapy like Target aisles, twinkly lights, and pretending you’re in a Hallmark movie.

Then we wrap things up with a few random bestie questions:
🧤 What would we be doing if we invited each other over and asked to bring gloves?
💌 What’s the first lesson in a “How To Be Our Bestie” course?
🕰️ And if we could live in any generation, which chaotic era would we pick?

Grab your headphones, your coffee, and maybe a vacuum sealer of your own. It’s a chaotic good time as always with your girls at Adventures of Des & Cort. 💖

New episode is live on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. Tune in to Adventures of Des and Cort for unhinged energy, a lot of laughs, and plenty of real talk. 💋🎙️

🎧 Tina #487 is here and honestly… she’s unhinged, iconic, and living rent-free in our heads.

This week’s episode is serving chaotic comfort and couch confessions because we can’t stick to one topic and honestly, that’s our charm. 😂

Des kicks things off with her passionate ESPN rant. It’s loud, it’s repetitive, and apparently it’s hereditary because her daughter feels the exact same way. 🫣📺

Fantasy Football made a surprise appearance and Cort casually revealed she’s played before. Of course she has. Our little tomboy is full of surprises. 🏈✨

We get real about why women need to talk about what’s actually going on in their lives. No more “I’m fine.” We’re building support systems over here. 💬🤍

Zeek is back for the winter and fully claimed the backyard couch like it’s his throne. 🛋️

Then we spiral down Des’s latest obsession… Instagram page VHS Dating. Imagine singles in the 80s recording dating interviews on VHS tapes. The people. The energy. The hair. Tina #487 is pure unhinged gold and we can’t get enough.🎥💅✨

Cort’s also in her Swifty Era, hanging on to lyrics like they’re life or death, while Des is just vibing to background noise. Two music listener types. One iconic duo. 🎶🫡

We praise alone time like the queens we are. A solo day with music, a clean house and some self care can heal a soul. 🙌

And then the ultimate holiday debate begins. 🎄 Cort decorates November 1, Des waits until after Thanksgiving. Whose side are you on?

Getting older? We’re here for it. We’re not fighting the years, we’re celebrating them. Because honestly… isn’t getting older the goal? 👑

This week we talk about the viral gummies that have taken over Des’s algorithm and officially de-influenced her 🙅‍♀️🍬. Cort spills the tea from her dreamy anniversary trip to McCall (golf, massages, wine, yes please) but also a hot flash of rage thanks to one steakhouse diva who needed everyone to know he got the wrong steak. Sir… it’s not that serious. 🥩😤

We share our brain mush moments of the week including “have such a great day” to strangers and “room for wiggle” to clients. We rant a little about the government shutdown because Des has flights coming up and she simply needs that government turned back on ✈️😂.

Then we get into the documentary Monster: The Ed Gein Story and how Cort somehow got sucked into watching a horror doc when that is not our vibe. But she started it, so she’s finishing it. 💀📺

Sprinkle in some rambling, some laughs, and some real talk, and you’ve got yourself an episode.

Back from Dallas and we’ve got STORIES. From airport chaos to near-stranger-danger moments, this trip was anything but boring. Des had a seatmate who was sweet enough to offer us a ride to the hotel…but listen sir, we are not starring in your true crime documentary today. 🚩😂

Meanwhile, Cortnie once again proved her iron bladder skills — years of flying and this woman has never used an airplane bathroom. Not once. ✨🙅‍♀️ Is she a legend or a lunatic? You decide.

Cory popped in with another one of his dreams (why are men like this? 🤔) and also managed to walk in on Des mid–self-tan session, only to ask if she got a new tattoo. No sir, that tattoo has been there since she was 18…and yes, it still counts as badass. 💀🔥

And let’s not forget the travel chaos — Dallas is ALWAYS delayed, but somehow we snagged the very last direct flights and avoided a surprise overnight in Denver. ✨Travel gods: 1, chaos: 0.

We also spill on our Besties Social Club – Wine About It Wednesday event 🥂. The turnout was amazing, the vibes were everything, and our cups (literal and metaphorical) are full thanks to all the incredible women who showed up. 💕

This episode is equal parts ✈️ chaos, 🛑 stranger danger, 💀 old tattoos, 🥂 bestie energy, and a whole lot of laughs.

🎧 Tune in, because you know that thing ain’t sitting still — and neither are we.

👖✈️ How is it possible to shop for 11 hours straight and still end up screaming “I HAVE NOTHING TO WEAR!” at your closet?? That’s talent, babes. While Cort is already mentally in Dallas, Des tried to start packing early… but somehow ended up deep-cleaning her closet, organizing jewelry, and side-eyeing her ADHD instead. The suitcase? Still empty. The chaos? Still undefeated. 🤦‍♀️✨

Meanwhile, Cort’s out there living her “one of the dudes” era again on the golf course 🏌️‍♀️—crushing it with the boys like she hasn’t been doing that her whole life. And Des? She got glammed up for the Air Force Ball, danced her ass off 💃 and realized her spark is officially BACK (cue HRT mic drop 💊🔥).

Oh, and we had thoughts, big ones…about the show Platonic. Like, can you really be married and have a ride-or-die BFF of the opposite sex that you go on adventures with? Sorry, but that’s giving 🚩🚩🚩. Couples’ friends are one thing, but this? Hard pass for us.

Between closets, golf swings, gowns, and hot takes on platonic BS, this episode is basically proof that we can rant, roast, and ramble our way through anything. 💅😂

🎧 Buckle up, babes—this one’s as packed tighter than our suitcases (that we’ll finish packing tomorrow).

This week’s chaos is brought to you by slicked-back ponies, too many shopping bags, and way too much trust in Type A Cort. 💁🏼‍♀️💁🏻‍♀️

We kicked things off with Cort running a full-blown hair experiment on Des (spoiler: she passed the BFF test with flying colors), and Des has officially coined our new favorite phrase: “That’s little ponytail behavior.” It’s iconic, it’s petty, and it’s our new personality trait. 🤌😂

Cort also revealed her latest TikTok hyper-fixation — a party trick that involves fruit, brute strength, and maybe a little too much wine. 🍎👀 No spoilers, but let’s just say…she’s basically training for Fight Club. Speaking of, Des’s husband has officially pitched Fight Club: Family Edition and already knows exactly who he wants to fight first. (Yes, we’re still processing that.) 🥊🤣

Meanwhile, we took an 11-hour shopping trip that left us wondering:
🛍 What even is our jean size anymore?
🍷 Why did we black out halfway through Abercrombie?
🤣 Who were those women cackling in the dressing rooms (oh wait, it was us)?

And because we like to live on the edge, we’re gearing up for our Dallas trip where Des goes full Type B traveler and lets Cort run the show. That’s not just friendship — that’s trust. 🙌✈️

As usual, there were laughs, drinks, rambling, and enough inside jokes to last a lifetime. Basically, it’s the podcast equivalent of that chaotic group chat you never want to leave. 🫶
