our pod

Sometimes it’s Monday, sometime’s it’s Thursday and the girls are ready to go FAST. Every Housewife franchise needs only two things: 1) wacky religious behaviour, and 2) shitting on floor behaviour. The girls discover a shared connection to Harrison Ford that electrifies them. Bella unlocks feelings for Jett of Jett and Pookie. Ivana was borderline already there with Jett but she’s NOT taking this crush from Bella. At what point do we say Taylor Swift is a cult leader? Bella reveals a motto that she lives by. Ivana confuses a pangram for a profound saying. Doing a podcast is about letting the segments come naturally and our weekly segment is called “Isabella Has One Bad Thing to Say About Reneé Rapp.” And we’ll have you know that often more than 30 people listen to this pod….. 

Our Pod has officially met Jax Taylor. So how about that? Imagine if all of a sudden Isabella was tall and Ivana was short. To be clear: Isabella is NOT saying “I did it first” with Chappell Roan. Are gay people annoying or just young people? Ivana thinks Isabella is just reckoning with community is beautiful. Horniness comes and goes but the girls pinky promise to reveal to each other and to pod if they ever have a sex dream about the other. Ivana has a bone to pick with Taylor Swift’s backwards hat and the love language “quality time.” Isabella has a bone to pick with Reneé Rappachella and the love language “touch” with friends. And if Ivana’s dreams are prophetic, what does it mean that Chappell Roan was rude…. 

SPOILERS FOR LOVE LIES BLEEDING 

We have a list today. 24 hot topics. And against all odds, we check them all off. There’s funky drinks. Ivana is all nic’d up, she’s taking the lead and ready to go. The girls have never talked this fast and it's for good reason! There’s much to discuss: food fixations, Saturn returns, boys with nail polish, pooping (in general), pooping (in front of the Pope). Ivana calls all cinnamon rolls “Cinnabons.” Isabella proclaims that Ann Marie Lastrassi is alive and well. What is “Q Anon”? Don’t ask. The girls are mutually horny for Katie Maloney. Call out for Virginia Our Pod hive, please make yourself known. We don’t have to be as ripped as always…. 

We ate some gay cookies and came on mad as hell! It’s the gay allegation episode and no one is safe (i.e. Naomi from Muna, Kate Berlant, Renée Rapp, Fletcher and Shannon, Morgan Wade and Kyle Richards). Our Pod is officially in DOUBLE DIGITS and the apple Bubbly is CRISP, girl. Ivana chickened out of using the bidet. Isabella has been a man in almost every lifetime. Ivana suspects one of those lifetime’s Isabella was Truman Capote. The guides demand Isabella have more sex. The pod allows Ivana to get in touch with her iPad. Sometimes the thing with books is that people excuse the fact that they don’t make sense. It’s April at long last but March was the most fruitful year yet….. 

We recorded in the daytime and everything is different. Aries season episode and it’s … kind of the smut episode. Bella’s birthday was boys night with the girls. Ivana tries to gossip about Jett and Pookie and Bella demands to know who even said that. LOTS of sip sounds the first 15 minutes… when you have a Diet Coke, what are you gonna do? The girls speculate on being past life gay lovers or just friends who were too scared to get fucked by Sister Benedetta. 4 minutes spent on Kacey Musgraves' hair colour. 7 minutes quiet scrolling for smut in the Wicked novel. And against all odds… Ivana sings this episode.

Sparks flew this episode! A good 25-minutes spent on magic. Isabella bought them two copies of “Wicked” the novel and the girls have a LOT to say - both philosophically and sexually. Steampunk is clocks and gears and stuff. They have a tattoo pact that one of them didn’t know about. Ivana has a crush on Ethan Slater aka. Boq the Munchkin aka. Ariana Grande’s new man. Bella has a sick schedule of midnight NYT brain games. And the girls clash on either side of the age old debate: Gale or Peeta? 

We are back from hiatus and it’s making Isabella SING - within ten minutes of the episode, unprompted! The girls are talking about Grey’s Anatomy, Chappell Roan being the new Gaga, early 2000s movie premiere attire, and Ivana’s queer roots originating in Fifth Harmony conspiracy…. But the star of the show is a little Italian delight and, no, we’re not talking about the limoncello that Ivana brought over. We’re talking about Ariana Grande herself. What’s iconic about this ep is it was recorded 2-hours before the release of her new album, “eternal sunshine” so they absolutely aren’t talking about THAT! However, Isabella and Ivana break down their favourites of Ari’s discography (thus far) and discuss their hopes and thoughts for the album to come! 

It’s Pisces season and that means Ivana (aka. Dolce) has a birthday fast approaching. To celebrate, the girls are talking about Coca Cola, ice cream, each other, and crushes. Ivana is closing out her 27th year with her number one fantasy being Angelina Jolie’s controversially young girlfriend. The girls plan to become media moguls when Ivana is 28 and then win joint Emmy’s for this podcast when Ivana is 29. Isabella gets overwhelmed looking at photos of Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake for too long. Against all odds, Boygenius makes its way onto the pod . Pisces szn is about being here with yourself and here with your SISTER. 

This week’s episode of ‘Our Pod’ is a doozy. Isabella is suddenly a Swiftie and Ivana tells her to take a long hard look in the mirror. The gender finale of last week continues and the girls circle back once again to their bobs. Isabella is Eponine, Ivana is Cosette. Glee finally makes it’s triumphant debut on the podcast and Bella, at long last, belts on mic. 

It’s a Valentine’s Day extravaganza on this week’s episode of ‘Our Pod’ and by that we mean Ivana brought wine, sugar straws and Hersey kisses to discuss our most intimate topics yet! The girls circle back to elementary school to discuss skanky Valentine’s Day dances and their musical theatre careers before getting into Spotify crush etiquette, what makes a good romcom, Ivana being straight when she watches reality TV, and a weird text from Bella’s crush gets the girls to start thinking about their gender expression….
