Being Friends Pod

A post-Christmas episode with Jess and Toni-ann will have everyone else feeling like they had their lives together this week. Let's be real, the week between Christmas and the New Year is truly chaotic... hence this episode coming to you midday. 

The ladies are recapping Christmas and finally sharing Jess's DISGUST of tomatoes even though she is Italian. You'll hear her reasoning, but probably still won't understand it. After that, they chat all things New Year's Eve and Day. Pet Peeves, Resolutions, Goals, and much more. It is the final episode of 2023 and we hope you enjoy! 

We've made it to double digits! In this 10th installment, the girls follow up on past ridiculous things. Toni-ann's ankles have been diagnosed with a real-life problem, Jess shares a follow up to her wild weekend from Episode 9. Also, hear how Jess thought she was going to die while sending her Christmas cards. After the ridiculousness, it is Part Two of holiday cheer, making lists and discussing Christmas songs, and memorable gifts from our childhood. 

Hope you enjoy this episode and we wish all of you a Happy Holiday!

After a week long hiatus, the girls are back with lots to discuss! They kick it off - no pun intended - with learning about Toni-ann's vacation injury, that they may or may not have manifested on a previous show. As it was said before, the things discussed usually end up happening the following week. Even though she was injured, that did not stop her from any fun or the Jonas Brothers concert the girls went to at the Prudential Center. They recap everything from the brothers and their glow-up, to the interesting people seated around them, and the even more interesting opening act. 
The second half of the show, the girls talk all things Christmas, so make sure there are no little ones around while listening so we don't spoil the magic! From old traditions of struffoli making that Toni-ann has just gotten into in recent years, gift shopping and wrapping, and the newer traditions of the Elf on the Shelf. They cover it all, and BOY do they have opinions (especially about the last one). 

Come laugh with us, and thanks for being our friend! 

The girls are back, and despite some audio hurdles they are here with some hot topics. 
Toni-ann is going away, bringing up some common travel chaos: did she pack enough and will the resort have tajin? While prepping for her vacation, they discuss having a go-to "spot" for nails and other essentials. Everyone needs a good nail, pizza and Chinese spot! 
Now that Thanksgiving is over, it is time for some holiday cheer, so they are talking Christmas music you MUST be listening to, and the anticipated Jo Bros concert next week!
Lastly, they take a nostalgic turn mentioning the impending 10 year college graduation anniversary that Toni-ann has now put Jess in charge of planning a reunion for. 

Come hang with us and as always thanks for being our friend! 

It's a Thanksgiving Feast of topics! Join Jess and Toni-ann as the topics come and go as quickly as the topics at your Thanksgiving Table. We have Ridiculous Things about waiting room etiquette, and Toni-ann partying like it's 2014. Toni-ann also still can't believe that if a bar sells spicy margaritas, that doesn't necessarily mean they have her favorite ingredient to go with it.

In typical bestie fashion, things get more ridiculous when we play FMK: Thanksgiving Edition, and we learn Jess really hates all Thanksgiving foods. Then follow the hard turn to some pop culture news, debate pronunciation of a 2000s staple in the social media world, and discuss the mind-blowing realization of how bears actually hibernate. An array of topics with plenty of laughs, so come join us on the way to your Thanksgiving dinner!

The ladies are in a head-to-head battle in their Fantasy League while recording Episode 6. Toni-ann has officially given up on drinking out of bowls, while sharing her fascination with the technology of the new McDonald's soda machine. After catching up on the weekend, the girls discuss changes in fashion over the years and the envy they share of the comfy Gen Z trends that Millennials did not have. Come along for the ride and laugh with us Friends!

In their truest form, Jess and Toni-ann talk sports. In this episode, these two are ranting, certainly not raving about their teams. The Jets had a huge Week 9 loss and are spiraling backwards, the Mets hire a bench coach as the new manager, and apparently we are changing what the area surrounding Citi Field looks likes for fans? Throw in some philosophical thinking and the NYC Marathon recap and you have Episode 5 in a nutshell. Don't forget to like, subscribe and share!

It's Week 4 and we are talking all things Halloween's past, and needing the Crazy Christmas people to give Tom the Turkey his moment to shine. The besties also go down a nostalgic rabbit hole when Toni-ann explains the "We were a country" trend to Jess. Overall it is a rollercoaster of topics but a fun one, we hope you enjoy! 

It is Week 3 Friends! Jess and Toni-ann jump into an episode filled with classic "Ridiculous Things," starting with Toni-ann's "inventive" choice of glassware. From there, the girls spiral into conversations about must-have condiments, unnecessary prequels/sequels/spinoffs/adaptations, annoying television characters, and more. Episode 3 is truly the besties in their natural form - ranting and raving while making each other laugh. We hope we make laugh too. Enjoy!

In their second episode, Jess and Toni-ann kick off the show with a new segment called Ridiculous Things, which somehow leads to Jess teaching us all how to shrink an Airhead? Anyway, after that, the ladies dive into two hot millennial topics from this week: bombshells from Britney Spears' upcoming memoir, and breaking news about a true crime story that gripped every millennial growing up. As always, thanks for listening, friends!
