  • 1: Off the Wagon, but Back in the Saddle

    The Pop Apologists reunite after four long years to relaunch the podcast that they frantically deleted in 2016 after Deb (Lauren & Chan’s mom) found out about it. Fast forward to 2020 and the gals, finally paying for their own cell phone bills and lives, reunite to bring back the pod, unafraid of their T-Mobile plans being cancelled as retribution for bringing back the pod their mom calls “absolutely so embarrassing for our family.” Lauren shares how in the past four years she has risen from unemployed poet to illustrious business success as an esteemed executive assistant, only to be laid off due to COVID. Chan shares how life has brought her to sunny Los Angeles, CA, and that – unlike Lauren – she is not only fully employed but also being recruited by Big Tech. Meggan discusses her move from Provo, UT to the decidedly more urbane, liberal, and cool Salt Lake City. Tune in to hear her discuss how life is going working for an event production company during a global pandemic. 🤪 Updates aside, the gals gab about celeb & reality tv gossip of the week: - Kristin Cavallari escaping to a “deserted island” aka the Bahamas. - Pink, Tom Hanks & Rita Wilson contracting Covid - Morgan Stewart dating Dr. Phil’s son - Who would you rather, Chris or Andrew Cuomo? - Vanderpump Rules: Will Stassi & Beaux make it? - Kim Kardashian’s evolving hairstyles

  • 8: Au Pair Nightmére
    This week we dive into it all. Like nannies everywhere being forced to quarantine with their bosses around the clock thanks to Corona. Lauren reveals her own nanny nightmare spent in the South of France that led to a transatlantic rescue by Deb and 14-year old Chanler. Chanler wistfully recounts her LA life and identity coming to a close this week. We offer our thoughts on the pivotal end of an era VPR finale, wherein Lauren exposes a passionate and potentially unhinged defense of Jax Taylor. And of course we share other unhinged thoughts about the real housewives...and their husbands. We also cover the astonishing results of our Tom Girardi hot or not poll on IG and a bit of arm chair psychology regarding what the hell is going on with Dorinda Medley. Buckle in, baby.

  • 7: It Just Wasn't What I Expected
    This week we dig into the deep joy that returning brings us, shameful items we've returned in the past (like the time Chanler returned a used tarp to Wal Mart), Courtney's tips for how to pull off a great outfit even if all you've got goin' on is a quick Target run, our deep analysis of lip filler, which housewive's closet we'd pillage and which one we'd burn to the ground, the time Gigi Hadid's dad, Mohamed, drove Courtney and her friends around Beverly Hills, and Mary Kate Olsen's divorce from her older French banker husband. Buckle in, baby.
