  • Being Friends Ep 86 - TV is Crazy, Celebs are Crazy, and ChatGPT is Crazy

    Happy Friday, we are back with a roundup of all the things! 

    First, we get into TV:

    - These 9-1-1 TV shows are perplexing. Are they satire? Are they just testing how crazy they can get and people will still watch? We ponder.

    -Love Is Blind (first 6 episodes) recap - this show has completely lost the plot.

    -The Pitt Season 1 - Toni-ann binged the hell out of it this past week, and is loving it. 

    Then we have some celeb chats:

    -Are JLo and Ben together AGAIN?

    -John Mayer and Kat Stickler? 

    -KFed is sounding the alarms on Britney again. But how timely, his memoir comes out this week as well...

    And of course our sports updates:

    -Yankees are out!!! Woohoo

    -Will we be real Knicks fans this year?

    -Our usual fantasy football rants. This spirals into Toni-ann gushing about ChatGPT for several minutes, while Jess is horrified she is losing her friend to artificial intelligence


    Tune in again next time to hear more blabbering!

  • Being Friends Ep 85 - Haircuts, The Life of a Showgirl Review, Fantasy Football Problems

    Welcome back friends! 

    This episode is MOSTLY about the newest Taylor album, of course, but for our non-Swiftie fans, we did discuss some other random things! 

    We are discussing the hardship of planning a haircut, or your nails, especially around special occasions.

    Fun Fridays- the new Friday ritual Jess created a new ritual with her kids for the month of October called "Fun Fridays." Last week, Carm's Farm was the fun activity! Highly recommend to our tri-state listeners! 

    TLOAS Review - not even close to being as in-depth (or intense) as our TTPD review, but we are talking about most of the tracks and giving our opinions. If you aren't a Swiftie, at least give Opalite a listen, you will not be disappointed. 

    After that, we are discussing NY sports and their disappointment across the board. This also ties into our fantasy football chat of the week. 

    Thanks for listening- please leave a review if you have time or share with a friend!

  • Being Friends Ep 84 - Co-Host Fantasy Battle, and the Misery We Knew Was Coming

    After a few busy weeks, we are back! Sorry people, life happens.

    While we were gone, Jess threw an Epic 3 year old birthday party #3'Jais. 

    Toni-ann cannot remember the context of the notes she wrote to discuss, so we go down a rabbit hole on commercials. Why can't we bring back more jingles from the 90s and early 2000s? 

    This week, Jess and Toni-ann faced off in Fantasy Football - and spoiler alert, Toni-ann won in an upset! 

    Lastly (and mostly) we are discussing the Mets and how the end we knew was coming came. It was as heartbreaking and draining as you would expect.

    Thanks for listening and Thanks For Being Our Friend, through hiatuses and all!

  • Being Friends Ep 83 - We MIGHT Try Pilates? And Fantasy Football Week 1

    Welcome Back Friends! 

    Some fun topics to discuss:

    -Plumbing Problems

    -Why you should close your patio umbrella ALWAYS. 

    -We might try a Pilates class (for research) and report back on it. 

    -Fantasy Football Draft and week 1 recap. 

    -Jets v Aaron Rogers

    -The Mets are taking a nosedive. 

    That's all we got! Share, Like Subscribe and Thanks for Being Our Friend!

  • Being Friends Ep 82 - Tayvis is Engaged, and Toni-ann's Adventures in Flushing

    Welcome Back Friends! 

    This week's episode was recorded last week and delayed due to some technical issues so apologies that our pop-culture news is not so new this week! 

    First thing's first - Taylor and Travis are engaged and boy did they break the internet! These Swifties are overjoyed and we are sharing all our feelings! 

    We are also hearing about all of Toni-ann's adventures in Flushing, Queens as of late. She went to Hot Pot for the first time, as well as the US Open. Tennis probably is not her thing since being quiet at sporting events is not her strong suit. 

    We are also catching you up on what Jess is watching - The Hunting Wives, and of course having our weekly Mets catch up. 

    Next time, tune in for some Fantasy Football Week 1 updates, and draft reviews. 

    As always thanks for Being Our Friend!

  • Being Friends Ep 81 - TSITP Rant, TS12 is Coming, and Changes to the MLB?

    Welcome back friends! 

    This week we are discussing LOTS of current pop culture topics.

    Starting with our feelings about the latest episode of "The Summer I Turned Pretty" and just a warning if you ain't team Connie then you are not going to like what we have to say. But for real, why is Belly the worst? 

    We are then jumping to Taylor Mayhem. TS 12 is coming out, we got the best interview for 2 hours that any Swiftie could have wished for, and the internet continues to break with her announcements as usual. 

    Jess is discussing more The OC reactions before we jump into the MLB and how we are not looking forward to the apparent restructuring that may happen to the league. The Mets also played in the Little League Classic, so we are discussing that as well. 

    We're back to full length episodes! Thanks for Being Our Friend!
