  • Being Friends Ep 21 - Network Television, Pop Culture/Sports Updates, and Our Oscars Recap

    Welcome back to another week Besties! 

    We are here and giving all our feelings on the Oscars, but before we do, we have a few other things to discuss. We are kicking it off with our Ridiculous Things, both revolving around television shows. What is happening on network television, and when will they produce good original shows again and not 76 spinoffs? 

    We are also updating everyone on the latest Kate findings. Things are still spiraling for the Royal Family, and we are sure this won't be the last we discuss of this topic, but things are just getting weird. In Sports news, the NFL was making moves and we are giving the latest trades that happened Monday (3/11), along with Jason Kelce's retirement. 

    We are saving the best topic for last with our Oscars recap. We are talking red carpet, the show, the best and worst moments, and of course THE MOMENT. Ryan Gosling making us so happy and bringing all the smiles to our faces with his I'm Just Ken performance. 

    We hope you enjoy this week, and as always thanks for being our friend!

  • Being Friends Ep 20 - Phrases We Hate, Jess's Thought Process, and The Royal Rabbit Hole

    Happy Friday Besties, we hope you are ready for this wild ride of an episode... as usual!
    Kicking it off with phrases we hate...and kind of do not understand? After the tangent of phrases, Jess is really taking you into a deep dive of her thought process and hopefully you can follow along. This brings us to a common ground of Jess and Toni-ann both hating the same meal their moms served as children. We started a list (that we will refer back to) of what happened to certain famous people- where did they go?

    Finally, we spoke about it briefly last week, but this week, we are deep diving into the Royal Drama and unraveling. Toni-ann, our Royal right hand lady, is giving us a timeline of events, breaking it down, and sharing our thoughts and theories on what is happening across the pond. 

    Don't forget to like, subscribe and share with your friends and family, and as always thanks for being our friend!

  • Being Friends Ep 19 - Expert Mixologists, Millennial Memory Lane, and Where's Kate?

    It's Friday and we are back. We have really picked up our beverage game with "What's in our china" this week folks! The mixologists have entered the building and you are going to want to make these cocktails! In typical fashion, our "Ridiculous Things" are indeed just that, Toni-ann hates the warm weather coming and Jess is an obsessive menu reader. These should not surprise anyone but you'll still be laughing at how ridiculous we are. 

    As per usual, there are a wide array of topics this week, from unnecessarily using "thank you," to the agreement that jury duty should be replaced with having to work in the service industry for a week. We also dive into what everyone is talking about this week: where is Kate Middleton? Is she OK? We are here for all updates and theories on the Princess. We end the week on a high note, with Millennial nostalgia and discussing all the things we loved as kids. 

    We hope you enjoy this week and as always thanks for being our friend!

  • Being Friends Ep 18 - Cheaper Than Therapy

    After a long week, the girls are back! Toni-ann is hurt (again) but on the mend, laughing through her pain for our entertainment. She did have a lucky weekend, and Jess also is thrilled for the return of the Choco Taco. As usual, we are covering an array of topics including Skittles being late to the marketing party, power ranking Disney Princes, how a man's car/truck says a lot about their anatomy, and so much more. 

    We hope you enjoy - and thanks for being our friend!

  • Being Friends Ep 17 - Galentine's Day! With Special Guests

    We have a very special week this week! In honor of Galentine's Day, we are dropping this episode on a Tuesday rather than a Friday. It is also our first ever episode with special guests! For this special episode, Toni-ann and Jess have Jamie, Kristin, and Sarah join to talk about all things dating in 2024. We have three single ladies, one married lady, and one long-distance/half-living together lady, so they all will have their own way of looking at the dating world today and their advice and perspectives!

    The dating world, especially with all the apps, can be a tough one: too many options, so many thinking they will find something better, and not enough commitment. Going on date after date can be exhausting, but also kinda fun! Jess and Sarah are giving their outside perspective, while Toni-ann, Jamie, and Kristin are sharing from inside the dating pool. No matter if you're in a relationship, or still looking for The One, you are going to want to listen to this one!

  • Being Friends Ep 16 - Toni-ann Goes to NOLA and Grammys Recap

    Happy Friday Friends! Toni-ann is back from her Mardi Gras bachelorette party and telling us all about it! We are kicking things off learning all about the fun to be had in NOLA during Mardi Gras. And a special warning for all you looking to visit in the future- BEWARE OF THE WALKING CONDITIONS ON BOURBON STREET. You'll have to tune in to get the full story on that one. 

    After we hear from our party girl, we are talking all things Grammys, and we must warn you, we are not hiding our love for Miss Taylor Swift this week #sorrynotsorry. From the red carpet, to the performances, and to all the awards, we are covering the Grammy Awards from start to finish.

    We hope you enjoy, and as always- thanks for being our friend!

  • Being Friends Ep 15 - Girl Showers, Children's Books, The Internet & The Bermuda Triangle

    The girls out here will know the struggle of being a girl and the different types of showers we require, and that is only one of this week's ridiculous things. Men just don't get it and we are sick of it! Once we get over our ridiculous things, a conversation about children's books is what takes us on a wild ride this week. The classic "How did we get on this topic?" question will be asked.

    Our last convo on this episode is all about the Bermuda Triangle and Amelia Earhart. Since recording this, we've found out we completely had the story wrong... maybe... we still are not too sure. Either way, were we the only ones thinking that the Bermuda Triangle was much more problematic than it actually was?

    That's all for this week, we hope you enjoy, and thanks for being our friend!

  • Being Friends Ep 14 - Toni-ann Can't Remember Shhhhhh

    Your favorite girls are back - but our memories are not! 

    As always, Jess and Toni-ann are kicking it off with What's In Your China and Ridiculous Things. Of course, the topics or the tangents it takes them on are not disappointing. The rants range from interstate construction projects, overpriced Panera, still acting like it is 2020, and are we the only people not making homemade bread? It is all being covered. 

    As for the title of this episode - Toni-ann loses her train of thought MULTIPLE times, but that does not keep us from discussing some hot topics in the world of sports and pop culture. Maybe by the next episode, she'll remember what she was going to bring up (probably not).

    We hope you enjoy!

  • Being Friends Ep 13 - Completely Off The Rails

    Happy Friday Friends, we are back again. 
    Jess is sick, so please excuse her voice... but the show must go on. Plus, that also reminds her of her ridiculous trust issues with orange juice to entertain you all. Toni-ann is showing off some new "china" from across the pond, and after these two opening topics, we really are heading "COMPLETELY OFF THE RAILS."
    This episode will truly take you on a rollercoaster, with conversations including multiple math lessons with Jess, playoff football recaps, the problem with modern award shows, daytime television, the Romans, and.... Sugar Babies. Yes, those sugar babies. The gals went all over the place and truly don't know how or why. 
    At the end, if you're still with us, please like, subscribe, and share with someone new!
    As always - thanks for being our friend!

  • Being Friends Ep 12 - New Year, Same Friends

    Hello 2024! Toni-ann is back from "across the pond" and we are back in action! We are kicking off the year with a plethora of ridiculous things, and we apologize in advance for the ranting. But that's what we do best!

    The gals spent New Year's Eve together, so we dive into that,  before recapping Toni-ann's first adventure of 2024. This trip DID NOT disappoint as her travel woes are quite entertaining. 

    Lastly, we are discussing the Golden Globes. From the terrible monologue, the lack of red carpet, and lack of hype- the award season is just not what it used to be and we are diving in.
