Everybody Ships Us

On today’s date, Shelley measures her balls and bones, Bonnie gets stressed about picking up paint from Home Depot, and our hosts establish a binding ranking system that we’ve dubbed “Fruit Rules.” Shelley has the depressing realization that she’s in her late 20’s, Bonnie begs people to reveal their crushes, and our hosts shamelessly plug Shelley’s Venmo account (@shelley-norfleet). Plus, it’s the return of everybody’s favorite segment, Mind Meld! And Shelley and Bonnie definitely remember how to sing the theme song, and it goes perfectly.

Marley Balin (she/her) is back to play a hilarious few rounds of the Red Flags Game! And this time, we mashed it together with Bang, Marry, Kill to create a truly chaotic game that you can play along with while you listen. And a last-minute lightning round paints the trio into some tricky corners. Later, Marley dishes on her relationship with her new fiancé and issues Bonnie and Shelley a challenger to help the two of them more actively take a role in making each other’s lives easier.

Bang, Marry, Kill: a pro football player who juggles constantly, a hot young Stalin, and a goose who lays designer clothes? Think about it - and see which of our hosts agrees with you!

Marley Balin (she/her) is an undergraduate student studying speech-language pathology and joins Bonnie and Shelley for a hilarious chat in the living room. Marley, a twin born on Christmas Eve who is in a band with her fiancé, tries to say she’s not that interesting, which our hosts find absolutely riotous. In this episode, Marley shares her 4 Minute Life Story, discusses the sexiness of coffee vs. tea, and teaches Shelley and Bonnie about vocal fry, the subject of her thesis project (and points out just how often they use it)! And perhaps most importantly, Marley pulls back the curtain on what it was really like growing up with Bonnie (did we mention she’s Bonnie’s cousin?). Please enjoy the first half of our Third Wheel Date with Marley Balin, and make sure you’re subscribed to Everybody Ships Us on your preferred listening app so you don’t miss an episode!

Shelley and Bonnie are back on their bullshit, looking up pictures of Carrot Top, discovering their friendship colors, and reacting to their first magazine feature. Our new favorite segment, FOMAEOTQAPT, returns with a bang, as our hosts take a personality quiz that Bonnie invented and wrote down in her middle school diary. And both Shelley and Bonnie develop an unrequited crush on a certain 18th century composer who has an affinity for dangling people out of windows… it’s the debut of Buff Daddy Handel, y’all!

*Content warning: this episode discusses gun violence, as one of us has a personal connection to a mass shooting that happened on May 15, 2022. Listeners should proceed at their own discretion from 00:27:08 til the end of the episode.

Shelley and Bonnie give some important updates in this episode, like how their first trip together to Utah went, how “party” the party house actually was, and how they just might believe in love after witnessing such a gorgeous wedding. (Congrats again, Jacob and Anatasha!) Then, the conversation turns serious, as our hosts discuss a recent event of gun violence that happened in their community, at Bonnie’s home church. Shelley encourages her best friend to take up space and process in her own time, and Bonnie does. It’s truly a moment of Friendship In Action. And finally, a surprise appearance from a much-beloved and oft-mentioned special guest is the perfect way to close out this date.

Shelley and Bonnie have a mission in this episode: actually only talk for an hour this time, and take no extra time for tangents! Will they make it? (Spoiler: … nope. But they got close!) Our hosts discuss what early dating activities are their favorites, muse on whether Baroque was the name of a famous painter, and announce that they are taking their first trip together! Bonnie talks about her experience assistant teaching a Viewpoints workshop, and Shelley recounts her time almost getting scammed in Las Vegas before a BTS concert. Finally, during their latest in the 36 Questions That Lead to Love series, Shelley and Bonnie get really open about what quality they would like to have if they could choose anything. Enjoy - and don’t forget to let us know what you think of this episode by rating the podcast and subscribing!

You asked… we answered! Our beloved Assistern Bri Chappelear (she/her) is our Third Wheel for this date… officially, this time ;) We get to know our lovely production assistant in a much more intentional way, finding out what life was like for her growing up as a farmer, the qualities of her most meaningful romantic relationships, and her experience discovering and divulging that she’s queer. We talk about her career goals, her cats, and why she loves talking about feelings so damn much. Plus, you know we couldn’t let her on the podcast officially without making her tell us her Four Minute Life Story and joining us for a game of Which Would You Choose! Play along with us, and enjoy learning all about Assistern Bri!

Shelley and Bonnie really tried to make this date quick, but - as always - it did not go according to plan. Instead, our hosts explore tangent after tangent, telling the story of what happened at Ami’s 2-on-1 birthday wine tasting trip, discussing mail anxiety, and pulling up a pee color chart to make sure Shelley’s not dying. Next, Bonnie and Shelley take a relationship quiz to find out how well they know each other, and even squeeze in their entire life stories… in 4 minutes each! This is a jam-packed episode that you do not want to miss!

First of all, definitely let your kids listen to this episode, because Shelley and Bonnie are dishing out GREAT advice for everyone! Our hosts find out their astrological compatibility in a new segment - very appropriately called “Finding Out More About Each Other Through Quizzes and Personality Tests” (really rolls off the tongue, doesn’t it?), update each other on how they did on Alexandra Billings’ challenger all those weeks ago, and discover some really troubling information about the true power of WiFi… enjoy! And remember, definitely take everything we say in this episode to heart!

On the menu for today: Shelley has been having soup every day for a month, Bonnie definitely knows what bird legs are called, and both consider what reality dating show they’d be cast on. After creating new Doritos flavors and discussing being each other’s emergency contact, our hosts tackle a particularly tender question in their “36 Questions That Lead To Love” segment. Plus, we get an update on Bonnie’s challenger to cook a meal for herself and Shelley’s challenger to spend time with another friend! And, lastly, as Shelley will tell you, the soup of the day is… more soup. Everything is soup. Soup soup soup soup, soup soup: soup.
