A suspiciously oily not-so-sweet 16th episode from the gals, who are clearly Tired and Emotional. In any case, they go to a punk show, discuss Mecca's wellness misfire, chronic illness imposter syndrome, a Quackwatch from the history books and some delicious calls fresh off the crisp and juicy Spoonie Hotline. Including an excerpt read by Sarah Ramey from her new book, The Lady's Handbook for Her Mysterious Illness.

They haven't showered, they're scraping their way back from nervous breakdowns, and they're ready to talk about it! Sorry for the lapse in eps – these two hellbeast women love to give advice about how to look after yourself, but they also love to not follow any of it themselves! Very cute and cool and sexy.

In episode 14, the gals touch on the real-life effects for spoonies that happened when opioid meds went prescription-only, the weird 'disabled villain' trope that Hollywood loves to lean on, and a brand new QUACK WATCH about bad Goop health ghost man that loves to blend celery and call it a cure for everything. And of course, new SPOONIE HOTLINE!! Get up in this gig.

CONTENT WARNING - the beginning of episode touches on the effects that current news stories about sexual assault can have on your mental health. No details of the stories or charges are specified, but if you're trying to avoid this the current media hellscape altogether, maybe skip the first 5~ minutes of this ep.

Look, yes it's late but SOME OF US have raging painkiller addictions and full-time jobs alright? So i guess this episode is about some of the chicks' chronically ill and disabled icons and how sick people are represented in the media- this time they're yakking about a SICKENING TV show and a legendary singer and activist. Well, it's a start, because media representation.. that's a whole thing. Anyway, this episode is full of legends, including a new HISTORICALLY FULLY SICK, SPOONIE HOTLINE and the usual steaming hot nonsense. Here's a spoon.
