March 27, 2026 22. Glorp by Chance
Sometimes you have to live to learn!
Lauren and Sarah are living a lot but still have room to grow. This week we’re talking “cannon events”, or an experience in a person’s life that comes to shape or define who they are (thanks dictionary.com!). From silly to serious, these are the stories that make us who we are today. Highlights include Lauren admitting she might be a mild kleptomaniac, Sarah mentioning she should put the scissors down, and both realizing the importance of glorp.
Lastly, it turns out it was 3 bad panna cottas in a row!

March 20, 2026 21. That's Hip Hop by Choice with the Sulewski Sisters
Two Sarahs? Now we’ll never know who’s talking! Lauren and Sarah are joined with Sarah and Jasmine Sulewski: sisters, dancers, classmates, and foes. They share the sentiments of sisterhood and the woes of math (seriously, we talk about math so much). 🍎+🍊=🍌???
Before all that, though, L&S discuss dates…. Again. We promise this isn’t a dating podcast. We just want to keep you up to date! This is a cinephile podcast, though, meaning we watched the Oscars. Finally, will we ever learn the story of the electric slide?

March 06, 2026 19. Okay? Okay. By Chance
I’ve got the magic in me! Or I have Channing Tatum inside me… Either way, Lauren auditioned for Magic Mike Live. We’re discussing the process, the script, and winning over the entire building.
Then we pivot and discuss THE cancer teen romance movie of cancer teen romance movies, The Fault in Our Stars. Don’t worry, we find the faults.

February 27, 2026 18. Au Naturale by Choice with the Giles Sisters
Welcome to our candy store! Just make sure that the candy is mint free...
Lauren and Sarah saw Heathers the Musical and talk about flavor phobias... there’s one rule in this house, and it’s run the sink!
They’re then joined by the Giles sisters, Amanda and Mackenzie, to talk about being a cool aunt, doing sister therapy, and annual trips to Thailand. They discuss cousins and water damage before Lauren shares the story of almost killing her cousin. Finally, we all agree that we got our boobs from our dads.

February 20, 2026 17. Hear This by Chance
What's a more perfect combo than peanut butter and chocolate? Lauren & Sarah! We’re frustrated and disappointed by the shrinkification of the Reece’s Eggs >:(
#1 fan applications are open, so now is your chance to up your listening hours and win that prize (official prize to be determined)!
This week, we fall into some medical woes and stories. It’s like The Pitt, but The Bush (for Bushwick, not because we’re gay). We may be bruised, battered, and drowsy, but we’re on the mend. Thankful for our sisters/caretakers <3

February 13, 2026 16. Snorting by Chance
Get ready to partyyyyyyy!.. Cause Lauren and Sarah don’t really do it anymore.
This week, the sisters start out with an innocent conversation about hair clips and dating green/red flags. However, things take a turn when they dive (literally head first) into some old drinking and drug stories. How do a trailer, pupusas, Seussical the Musical, a human pyramid, and a moose hat fit into this? Guess you’ll have to listen to find out ;)

February 06, 2026 15. Spinster Sisters by Chance
Love is in the air! Valentine’s Day edition of the pod <3
The Cocroft sisters are back with some classic sisterly advice: dating and relationships. But first, they have to complain about crazy yoga classes... Then they get into the GOOD stuff, discussing best dates, worst dates, and how to make a good move.
If you want to skip ahead at that one part... start time is 24:22 and skip ahead time is 26:53 :)
Have dating advice? Want to ask us something about dating?

January 30, 2026 14. 23 Flavors by Choice with the Primosch Sisters
Watch out! A belly button!
Join Lauren and Sarah as they discuss their belly buttons for far too long (to the point of Lauren getting queasy!). They go on to revel in all of their correct movie opinions -- Wicked: For Good didn't get any Oscar nominations? Yeah, they called that!
Then welcome Amanda and Anna, the Primosch sisters, who showcase a true yin and yang relationship. They tell stories of leaving airpods in the dishwasher, going to Jamaica for an opera camp, and pouring glue in a shampoo bottle...

FIND YOUR TATTOOS!!!!
What do we mean by that? Guess you gotta listen to find out ;)
Lauren and Sarah sit down to give some sisterly advice on personal style. They also get into their beer pong triumphs, the awkwardness of bringing up your dead mom at a party, and the possible hell of buying makeup at Sephora.
