Some friendships don’t always end with closure, they end with receipts and regret. This week, Tracy and Jessica open up about losing friends, outgrowing people, and what it feels like when someone you love turns into someone you used to know. This is part one of a two-part deep dive that reminds us sometimes the worst heartbreak isn’t always romantic. Stay tuned next week for part two!

Labubu’s, free bleeding, and alien role play. What do they have in common? Absolutely nothing… except they’re the kind of wild weirdness Tray & J live for. You’ve been warned, this episode gets real weird, real fast. We’ve always worn the unhinged badge of honor, but it might be time to pass it on to our listeners.

He was born a baddie, and he will go out our daddie.

In this episode we say goodbye to Alan. The man responsible for keeping these two Jersey girls under control. The man who never judged us (well, maybe a little). Our voice of reason. He will be missed, but the impact he made on this show will live on forever in the pictures we forced him to take with blow up dolls and dildos. Join us for baddie daddie's last episode, as we relive some of our favorite moments together and give Alan the send off he deserves.

Thank you, Alan, for everything you've done for this show. We speak your name, baddie daddie.
