  • "I Was Never Supposed to Have a Desk" (w/ Jenny & Nicole)

    Welcome to the big 100th Episode special (lol)!!!!!


    We solve listener brainwashes and discuss if we had millenial weddings, driverless cars, Nicole's sleep apnea journey, Dr. Spock, if CEOs are smarter than us, if Instagram is the new male gaze, if we'd want high boobs if we existed in a vacuum, if Nicole knows how Harry Potter ends, Jenny having sex to Newsies and if a bath counts as self-care.


    THANKS FOR 100 EPS! LOVE YA!

    Jenny & Nicole welcome a comedian, actor, and writer (Good Mythical Morning, host of Gastronauts) with INCREDIBLE VIBES Jordan Myrick to the pod!
