Long awaited, much anticipated, Maya and Angela touch on so many random things (rock n' roll, Bobby Flay, Etsy sex toys) while somehow predicting the future? Maya talks about her relationship with singer, rapper, and flutist, Lizzo, after watching her new show Lizzo's Big Grrls. She concludes that Lizzo is about as good as she can get for a public figure but has two strikes against her (being a "good fat" and making the god forsaken brand Yitty). Little did they know that an impending third strike was hurtling towards home plate as they spoke.

There's lots of Lesbianism in this episode, at least more than usual. As Maya talks about the movie Saving Face (2004) and its casual racism in a seemingly idyllic Chinese-American Lesbian utopia (Flushing, Queens), Angela recounts watching a She-ro chef documentary and was genuinely all over the damn place. All this is followed up with a rousing and extremely Queer game of fuck, marry, kill that features celebs including Karla Souza, Ever Maynard, Gara Loning, Renee Elise Goldsberry, Sara Bareillis, and Busy Phillips.

It's season 2 y'all!!!

This week hosts Maya and Angela take a break from their finals week studies, drag their butts to the kitchen table, and press record on Maya's iPhone to get into really important topics like the word "poop" being a slur, and ballet being self harm.  

By the time you are listening to this both Maya and Angela are one degree hotter ;) 

This episode is only slightly cursed. Maya deleted an entire episode only to take a full month to edit this rerecording but I swear it's worth it. Both Maya and Angela were "gross" (allergy bedridden) in this episode but I promise I edited out all the sniffles, snuffles, and Monet XChange level snot sucking sounds. 

Try and follow along as Angela recounts one of their endlessly wild dreams (all 3 acts!) in great detail. This dream had Kardashians, the scenic Mississippi River, and Pam Anderson's weave(?)! Through that dream, Angela bared their soul to y'all but Maya insists (shocker) that they share more.

Get to know Maya and Angela a little bit more in this game style Q&A session where they play fuck, marry, kill, I only blank when I blank, and compliment corner. Okay, compliment corner isn't really a game but Maya seeks validation of her sense of self in any form she can get, even if that means embracing being a woman about her business SMDH.

How would you describe your forehead? Spacious like Rihanna or petite like Maya?

This week Maya and Angela sit on the floor and catch up because they haven't seen each other all week! 

In case you're curious, we do still have a mic and we are still figuring it out. This weeks episode is a bit quieter so I suggest you play us at top volume on your loudest speaker. This will provide you with maximum enjoyment, and if you're lucky it might also inspire your downstairs neighbor to bang on the ceiling as if to say "I LOVE WHAT YOU"RE LISTENING TO KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!"

Lace where? Lace there! 

This week absent minded icons Maya and Angela are back and better than ever, and ready to give you segments. But first they must tell you about the famous gymnast that got engaged on the set of Gilmore Girls, biracial hashtags, and how Maya got blocked by a famous comediennes wig stylist. 

If these sound like topics you'd like to get in to with us go ahead and press play. If not, take a hike!!

New format let's goooooooooo!

Angela identifies as a smarty party which is like a smarty pants but like the party version, obviously. We all deserve a party when we feel smart, you know? Unless you're talking about metaphors and literature analysis, in which case they want you to go to hell. Because imagine Shakespeare saying, "sis, get into this metaphor." 

Ted Talks are just academic slam poetry and once you realize that criticizing them feels a lot easier. Angela both hates Ted Talks and would like to give them, they're a Gemini, shocker. Maya does not believe in astrology, I means she doesn't believe in anything, but it's fun to pretend. 

Maya reflects on the wisdom that was probably given to her as a young adult that she flat-out ignored. Like the fact that cars needed to be washed regularly, who would've thunk? She's sure there is other stuff but she was definitely not listening. 

Listen, we didn't judge you that one time you didn't answer that FaceTime call from your best friend and said you were busy, even though you were just laying in bed eating Fritos. Or that time that you pretended not to see your coworker fall and drop all of their belongings because you just didn't feel like helping. So this week we ask that you not judge us in our time of transition.

In this week's mini episode Maya and Angela play a riveting game of Would You Rather. Digressions include Jay-Z's faux locs, Maya's white girl tendencies, and accordions. 

There are two types of people in this world: those who are neutral about sweatpants and those who wear sweatpants in public and feel like their soul is disintegrating. Angela is the latter. We implore you to have fun with the way you dress and challenge your job's dress code. Unless you're like a carpenter or one of those mermaid performers at aquariums, then you probably don't have many options. 

Maya and Angela dive into manners and politeness in this episode and clearly do not think interrupting is a rude characteristic. We hope you learn something in this episode, we know we did! Angela learns Banana Republic is derogatory and Maya learns Nelly Furtado is white. Who would've thunk.

Happy late winter solstice Shiddies!

Can I check you for a minute? We've all got weird genitals, no need to be uppity about it. Some of us have bruised color vaginas some of us have translucent jellyfish-esque areolas and that's okay (say it til it's true). Angela updates us on their bumps and lumps and maybe the fluorescent lighting in doctors' offices is a sexual deterrent? 

Maya and Angela don't enjoy movies made for men and they make sure you know it. Jungle movies? Trash. Sci fi? Trash. Fantasy movies? Trash. And please, dear god, do not get Angela started on dystopian movies. Nicheties asks you to stop worshipping Harry Potter and grow a personality..or else.

In the name of Trans people, amen.
