Before Alexis & Talia dive into the bad vibes, Alexis shares her tropical vaca plans for next week (where the vibes will be exceptionally good). Relaxation vacation, anyone? Talia’s update may not be tropical, but it’s still v hot—yup, she was front row at fashion week (but no, she doesn’t know why she was invited). Being able to tag NYFW on IG, though? A true flex. Then onto a quick chat about why Talia can’t get verified on TikTok (someone get this girl a blue check already) before jumping into this week’s Vibe Check. Ofc, first up is the chaos called Kanye West. Talia & Alexis admit that while yes, the absurdity is entertaining, it’s also pretty f-ing sad (especially for the kids). They also pose the q we’ve all wondered—did Kim make Kanye or did Kanye make Kim? Next, they listen to the very first hotline voicemail (exciting!) asking about the age-old question (ok fine, the q from last week) of whether or not you should buy lingerie for a hookup. Then more on controversial q’s, for Roast It or Toast It they debate whether or not you should split the bill on a date (spoiler: as long as there’s a wage gap the correct answer is no). Following is a huge ‘toast’: blind items (listen for the definition & all the tea). And then the ep comes to a close with a much contested topic—group chats (they’re just not it). For the ladies who added Talia & Alexis to a massive group chat though—if you’re listening, pls don’t kick them out.  

Hot tip: save the Bad Vibes Hotline # 212-287-5244 as your ex’s contact, so when you’re tempted to call them you can call Alexis & Talia instead (brilliant, we know).

Your fav TikTok *stars* Ms. Talia Lichtstein and Alexis Barber present to you the first of many sh*t talk sessions. Or, as we like to call it, the Bad Vibes Podcast. They get into all the good stuff—who they are, how they know each other—but more importantly, they get into all the bad stuff too. For this week’s Vibe Check, Alexis & Talia talk about V Day and tell us what they think of the holiday (‘yay’ or ‘nay,’ and if you answer with ‘nay’ are you just being misogynistic?). Then they read some Absurd DMs from their own inboxes, including from all the angry boys riled up at Talia over Tom Brady, and Alexis shares the time TLC *rudely* reached out to her. Drama, drama, drama! Then on to a heated game of Roast It or Toast It (roast=not it, toast=clink, clink b*tch, we love). On today’s contested agenda: Posting a man on social media—a vibe or nah? Getting lingerie as a gift—is there only one OK way to do it? And Axel Webber’s tiny apartment—can you stop cosplaying being poor already? (Talia spills some real tea with this one and trust us, you’re gonna want to tune in.)

So if you haven’t picked up on this already, no one and nothing on the internet is safe. Got something to say about it? Then actually pls do let us know. The hotline is: 212-287-5244.
