On this episode, we’re kicking things off with Danielle’s whirlwind 24 hours in Pacifica and Dami’s Beanie Baby nostalgia (which leads into Danielle's boys current Labubu obsession).

Things take a serious turn as we break down the "What The Fuck" news, Trump’s war with Iran and soaring gas prices. We also cover the firing of Kristi Noem, as well as her replacement Markwayne, the disturbing arrest of the Squatty Potty inventor, and the Epstein files and Bill Clinton deposition.

We wrap things up with a wild trip to "Conspiracy Corner" to debate if Jim Carrey is actually a clone?! In What We Watched: Industry finale, Scream 7, Southern Charm, Southern Hospitality, Summer House, the Love is Blind Season 10 finale, Paradise, The Last Thing He Told Me, and Love Story. Dami catches us up on finally finishing the Traitors finale, the last four episodes of Bridgerton, the ANTM documentary, Wonder Man, and The Paper, before she catches us up on, A Court of Wings and Ruin.

What are you waiting for? Grab a drink, get the news, and come hang with us.

On this episode we discuss, Trump's State of the Union and its 5 key moments, plus -- why was the WOTUS (Widow of the United States) Erika Kirk even there?! We also talk about the Olympic men's hockey team's disappointing phone call moment with Kash and the president, because "it's not that deep" is NOT the answer when the women's team literally won more medals — enough with the boys will be boys nonsense!! We also dive into the Starbucks class action lawsuit involving child labor and potentially cancerous ingredients that is hidden in your morning cup of coffee. We also touch on the beginning of the Clinton depositions (more coming in next week's episode).

We obviously have to talk about Punch the Monkey before diving into What We Watched: Industry, The Traitors finale, the Tell Me Lies series finale (forgot last week, woops), Southern Charm, Summer House, The Pitt, Love is Blind Season 10, Paradise, A Night of the Seven Kingdoms finale, You've Got Mail, and The Pitt.

Dami also continues catching us up on the ACOTAR series, more recently, A Court of Wings and Ruin. AND we answer the important question: what movie scene or actor/character was your sexual awakening? For both of us? Devon Sawa in Casper. Obviously.

What are you waiting for, sit down, grab a drink, get the news, and come hang with us.

On this episode, Danielle recaps her Valentine's Day and Dami shares her Barbarian-like haunted Atlanta Airbnb experience. We then dive into the Supreme Court pushing back on emergency tariffs, Trump ordering the release of government UFO files (classic Epstein distraction), and whether the 25th Amendment could actually remove him from office. We also talk about ICE deporting a sick 2-month-old, an alleged Ghislaine Maxwell body double (and yes, we had to bring up the Melania double, too), and the Prince Andrew arrest.

We then dive into all of the things we watched: The Pitt, Love is Blind Season 10 (Chris is the WORST), The Traitors, Eternity, A Night of the Seven Kingdoms, 56 Days, Love Story, Southern Charm, and Summer House; then Dami does a full synopsis reading of A Court of Mist and Fury for Danielle.

On our 50th episode, we celebrate Galentine's Day and kick off Valentine's Day weekend recapping Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show. We also take a moment for Damiana to give a touching tribute to her Popa.

We then dive into the shocking story of a father who killed his daughter over political differences, NBC's hot mic moment calling Olympic big air "boring," Chappell Roan and Abby Wambach leaving their agencies after their CEO was found in Epstein files, the House passing the Save ACT that threatens voting access to a huge group of people, Pam Bondi's contentious hearing, Olympic highlights from snowboarding to figure skating (including Lindsay Vonn's devastating crash), and of course, what we watched: Industry, Traitors, Tell Me Lies, Love is Blind Season 10, A Night of the Seven Kingdoms, The Pitt, Palm Royale, Shrinking, and The Housemaid.

On this episode, we start off light with school tours, farmers market and Nancy Meyers before we dive into the darkness of What The F*ck Trump News. We break down the latest Epstein file releases, the disturbing allegations and evidence, and the resurfacing of a new pic of Jeffrey Epstein spotted alive?! We also cover the Clintons publicly pushing to release everything they know to Congress, as impeachment of Trump chatter ramps up. We also chat about Trump’s now-deleted, wildly racist Truth Social post depicting the Obamas as apes, and the administration’s pathetic attempt to blame it on a staffer. In What We Choose, we unpack the ongoing Nancy Guthrie abduction case and the flood of new reporting surrounding it, along with ICE agents speaking out after allegedly never receiving the bonuses and benefits they were promised (sucks to suck). Heavy topics, necessary conversations.

We lighten things slightly with Good News We’re Sippin’, China enacting the death penalty for child s*xual abusers and giant pandas officially are no longer being endangered!

Dami finally finished A Court of Thorns and Roses! Let's get SMUTTY.

Lastly, we watched all the things: Industry, Traitors, Tell Me Lies, The Pitt, Singles, Dick, Sweetbitter, Summer House, A Night of the Seven Kingdoms, Shrinking, Southern Charm, Fallout, Bridgerton, and recapping our favorite part of the Grammys.

On this episode, we discuss What The Fuck Trump News. Alex Pretti's execution and the sick responses from the administration, the Pam Bondi–led arrests of independent journalists. We also unpack Trump’s email threatening his MAGA base, Melania getting defaced (lol), and a trigger warning as we read a brief excerpt from the Ep*tein files.

We move into Italy's outrage over ICE joining the Olympics, the cast of White Lotus season 4, and we mourn the loss of everyone's favorite mother Catherine O’Hara. Lil Wayne launches a free medical clinic and solar windows that feel like the future.

Finally, everything we watched this week: Industry, Little Disasters, Traitors, Tell Me Lies, Southern Charm, The Pitt, Molly Mae, Alice Darling, Law & Order SVU, The Pitt, Bridgerton, a Sweetbitter rewatch, Pluribus, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, Victoria, Fallout, and F1. Cheers to that.

On this episode, we discuss everything we’ve been up to this week before jumping into What The Fuck Trump News. Goodbye to the ballroom plans and hello to a bunker and he mixes up Iceland and Greenland. We go in on ICE and them detaining young children. This episode was recorded before the execution took place, it was an execution of an innocent man! We must Abolish ICE!! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!

We also cover the Brooklyn Beckham family drama, California joining the WHO public health network, Blake Lively’s leaked emails and texts with some very famous names, the bizarre co-dependent Wuthering Heights press tour, and deleting TikTok.

We wrap with some good news: Green Day joining the halftime show alongside Bad Bunny, before jumping into our What We Watched list: Traitors, Industry, Tell Me Lies, The Pitt, Free Willy, Southern Charm, Pluribus, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, Fallout, and Victoria.

On this episode, we sit down with our glass of merlot and white wine spritzer and discuss everything from the week’s haps to the absolute chaos of the news. After we catch up since we last cheers'd, we dive into What The Fuck Trump News: Trump threatening to use the Insurrection Act again, this time in Minneapolis, and the truly baffling discovery of the upcoming Melania documentary (who's going to see that?!).

In What We Choose, we cover all of the horrid ICE happenings this week: young protester losing an eye at the Santa Ana protest, ICE flashbangs being thrown toward a 6-month-old and 5 other children, the Clintons refusing to testify about the Epstein files (with only 1% released and almost a month past due), and another man being un-alived while in ICE custody.

For some Good News We’re Sippin’, high schoolers are fixing up cars for single mothers and MacKenzie Scott continues to be an angel, donating $45M to The Trevor Project.

As always, we end the ep with what we watched. This week, Danielle watched Industry, Tell Me Lies, Southern Charm, and Mortal Instruments: City of Bones while Dami watched Pluribus, Curb Your Enthusiasm, The Pitt, The People We Meet on Vacation, and the failed attempt to watch the first episode of I Love LA. We also both watched Traitors and have lots to say!

On this episode, we catch up after nearly five weeks away. Danielle recaps Christmas, NYE, Jurassic Quest, hiking, and New Year’s resolutions, plus an OCD-fueled organizing and cleaning spiral, while Dami fills us in on her long UK trip. We also break down Trump’s unhinged Twitter responses to the Brown shooting, Rob Reiner’s death, and the murder of Renee Good by ICE, along with the bizarre and ongoing situation involving the Venezuelan dictator kidnapping while still in U.S. custody. We confront the escalating ICE violence, including Renee Good’s death, students attacked at schools, and JD Vance announcing door-to-door mass deportations.

On the lighter side, we unpack Ashley Tisdale’s essay on toxic mom culture and the reaction from Matthew Koma, Hilary Duff’s husband.

Lastly, we cover a month’s worth of What We Watched: Emily in Paris Season 5, Heated Rivalry, the new season of Traitors, My Mother Jayne, Regretting You, The Beast in Me, People We Meet on Vacation, Industry, then finish with our thoughts on the Stranger Things finale, all the plot holes, and #comformitygate ...buckle up, it’s a lengthy one.
