This week, Cece and Hannah go into Money Diaries territory. We talk about the money scripts we grew up with, financial situations we wish we'd thought a little harder about (some people might call them "mistakes"), and what our relationship to money is like now. Tangents include the story behind Hannah's less-than-excellent credit score and why Cece purchased luxury goods even while she was in six-figure student debt.

This week, Cece and Hannah delve into their experiences as NYC transplants. What brought us here? Was it everything we expected it to be? And which "sides" of NYC did we find a second (or first) home in? Hannah talks about hanging with the rich kids, Cece shares about the not-quite-healthy "work hard, play hard" ethos of finance/consulting/law, and we end by planning Hannah's upcoming mayoral campaign. Is Stella the Solution?

In 2020, Hannah was a trad wife, and Cece was a girlboss--at least on TikTok. We reflect on this (necessary? unnecessary?) flattening of identities into these archetypes for purposes of the ~aLgOriThM~ and debate the pros and cons of posting stay-at-home girlfriend/wife content and girlboss capitalist content. Along the way, we discuss Ballerina Farm, the allure of high-intensity high school extracurriculars like cheer, dance, and pageants, and the recent turmoil over diversity and inclusion at Chief, an exclusive women's networking organization for women with "senior leadership responsibility."

This week, Cece and Hannah catch up about their respective trips to South Africa and New York City, share their experiences with reality show casting, and discuss the proposed TikTok ban in the U.S. What will they do without TikTok?? Cece finally gets to bring in her experience as a privacy and data security lawyer, and Hannah gives some self-styled unhinged takes that actually aren't so unhinged after all.

This week, Cece and Hannah chat about the stories, dramas, and scandals taking over their feeds online. Why did HBO scrap the nearly-finished $54 million production of The Idol to rewrite and reshoot the series under the direction of Euphoria's Sam Levinson? Is the supposed feud between Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber real, or the figment of the internet's very active imagination (and proclivity to pit women against each other)? In the wake of Spare's publication, will Harry and Meghan be at the Coronation? And what do we make of all the influencer plastic surgeries that we're seeing?

Cece and Hannah are asking (mostly Cece) and answering (mostly Hannah) questions about New York Society! Why are socialites so interesting? Why do we need social climbers? They’re also discussing scandals and scammers in the scene--including a recently uncovered (alleged) Birkin Grifter who's been called a "modern male version" of Anna Delvey.
