Just like Target, this episode has a lil bit of everything.

That’s right, we’re talking about the vicarious journey to find love, courtesy of the infamous Bachelor Franchise. This week's episode has it all, romance, drama, what we imagine Daddy Chris Chris Harrison does in his trailer between takes.

Perfect listening for while you’re eating that discounted bag of day after Halloween candy, if we do say so ourselves.

Spooky Szn? More like Basic Bitch Season, and babes, on a scale of one to flannel scarf in a pumpkin patch, we’re basically a color coordinated sweater weather selfie.

It’s fall y’all and we’re kicking things off right with the seasonal debut of the pumpkin spice latte, or as its affectionately known among the “basic” community, the PSL. Not only will you get a history lesson you didn’t know you wanted, but we’ll also discuss the impact said beverage has had on pop culture and of course the stigma that surrounds it. And it won’t end there, cause you KNOW we love a good tangent- we delve into body positivity in the amphibian community and discuss: have you ever seen your dad cry? As always, it’s a ride (with several pit stops) so buckle up, cozy up, and girl, make it a venti.
