This is your chance to hear what Coachella sounds like -- before, during, and after -- each day of the festival, starting with Friday, April 19, 2024.

The girls are in FULL VOICE as they recap the the first several hours of weekend two and make their predictions for what's to come.

Did Miley Cyrus come out for No Doubt? Did Taylor Swift come out for Lana Del Rey? How long will Meg, Bridget, and Leif sustain their speaking voices?

Now, more than ever, people need a refresher on how Beyoncé became famous. Especially those who want to be famous. So much to learn. So much to emulate. So many Destiny's Child bangers to revisit.

Bridget risks it all to share her take on how Beyoncé and Jojo Siwa actually have some stuff in common.

Stay to the end to hear your host open up about feeling so left out she stared at the sun during the lunar eclipse this week. Achieving Star Sitter Status on Rover made her feel a little bit better.

The Bachelor Season 28 concluded this week with Joey Graziadei, America's Sweetheart, proposing to Kelsey Anderson, America's Sweetheart's Sweetheart. I wish them the best and am attracted to both of them.

In what critics are calling an"inevitable" episode, Bridget and fellow Bachelor connoisseur Grace Alexander go deep on how it feels to watch this journey play out, asking questions to which they may never know the answer but explore nonetheless -- 

Is it just Bridget and Grace, or can it be kind of painful to watch this show for reasons other than the cringe?

Are they really bad at makeup, or are these girls just really good for some reason? Were they formally trained?

Which Bachelor and Bachelorette do they think would be the best President of the United States if the situation arose?

And -- unrelated -- but who did Bridget see fighting with their lover in Soho this past weekend?

Three things are certain in this life: Death, Taxes, and Saturn's Return to the same position it occupied in the sky when you were born around your 29th birthday, subsequently changing the vibe of your life.

But don't just ask your host and Fearful 27 Year Old™ Bridget Sicard -- ask SZA, Ariana Grande, and Kacey Musgraves, who all mentioned the concept of Saturn Return in their music in the last month.

In this episode, Bridget pretends she's Michael Barbaro doing an investigative deep dive into the concept of Saturn Return, interviewing both her Astrology Friend™ Casey Witter and Saturn Return Survivor™ Morgan Leech.
