Today we're catching up about all of our December happenings, Sam almost getting scammed on vacation, and our recent TV and movie consumption. Next we have a quick circle back to our conversation about the responsibility of celebrities in regards to shaping societal beauty standards featuring an eloquently put sentiment from actor Kate Winslet. Then it's time to get in the weeds with a review of 2025's new year resolutions to see how we measured up and a discussion about what's on the horizon for 2026. As always we wrap it up with gripes about feminine hygiene products and rage baiting and grapes to brands with a sense of humor and strangers who live in the moment. See you in the weeds!

On today's docket we're appreciating our fans, discussing our Christmas decor, and sharing some recent TV and movies we've enjoyed. Then we've got some funny stories about kid behavior and a quick but of course not so quick circle back on the Amy Schumer drama. Next up is a reality check and we're yapping about Southern Charm, Beverly Hills, SLC, and of course the new Vanderpump crew! Then it's time to get in the weeds and today we're discussing romantic relationships between a human person and a chatbot. These relationships are on the rise and a recent statistic states that 1 in 5 high school students has had a romantic relationship with an AI chatbot or knows somebody who has and we've got some thoughts! As always we wrap things up with gripes about hollywood stars and getting ready rituals and grapes to thrifting finds and finally being winners! Join us!

First up, we're catching up after not seeing each other for 10 whole days. Sam is sharing about her upcoming Accutane journey and Hollis is recanting the tales of her emergency vet visit and her parents meeting her boyfriend for the first time. Next up, we're discussing Thanksgiving plans and Sam's designs of cheffing up a traditional Bavarian Christmas dinner. Then we've got some thoughts on Amy Schumer's recent headlines, Shay Mitchell's skincare line for kids, the Peacock hit All Her Fault, some television show nostalgia and some boomer parent behavior. Then Sam's circling back to share some interesting updates on the Blake Lively case against Justin Baldoni (yes, we're still following it) and then it's time to get in the weeds with a long overdue reality check. From Tamra and Gretchen's reunion blow up to Bronwyn and Whitney's candid conversation about open marriages we're going to mention it all! As always we wrap it up with gripes about stupid ways to share your opinions and design fails and grapes to forgotten snacks and oldies but goodies. Meet us in the weeds!

First up a recap of our rager concert weekend and then a brief circle back to the American Eagle jeans ad with Sydney Sweeney to share some thoughts on her recent interview addressing it. Then we're yapping about Kim Kardashian's new show All's Fair and our predictions for the future of Kim's acting career. Next up, another quick circle back to last week's episode about body image and diet culture with Sam sharing a vulnerable story about falling victim to the male gaze and how that can shape our ideas of self worth. Then we share some thoughts on Nikki Glazer's SNL monologue and a common schtick of female comedians. Finally we're getting into the weeds about the history and evolution of late night talk shows and the roles that women have played throughout the years. From the first women in late night to the current landscape we're spilling the tea. As always we wrap things up with our grapes and gripes segment. Thanks for being here!

First up we're yapping about martinis, media voices, and movies. Then we're sharing our thoughts on the recent headlines surrounding David Harbour and ex Lilly Allen as well as the allegations brought against him by Millie Bobbie Brown. Unfortunately, this has cast a dark cloud over the Stranger Things finale season premiere which Sam still very much cares about regardless of everyone who insists they have moved on. Then it's a lively debate about Julia Fox's Halloween costume or should we stay artistic statement piece? It sparks a discussion about what's appropriate in terms of Halloween costumes and where we draw the line between appropriation and appreciation. We come to the conclusion that art and expression are interpretive and subjective and there's not necessarily a clear right or wrong answer. We'd love to hear your thoughts! Then it's time to get in the weeds and today we're getting deep! We have talked many times before about diet culture, body image, and the pressure on young girls and women to look a certain way. The 90s and early 00s entertainment and marketing industries showcased impossible and unattainable standards for young girls and women that fostered a culture of extreme thinness. We're reaching into the vault to bring you some moments from Making the Team: The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, America's Next Top Model, The Girls Next Door, The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency, the Victoria's Secret runway shows, MTV music videos, and more. We discuss how those moments shaped our ideas of what we thought we were supposed to look like and how that affected us as adolescent girls, how the landscape has changed and also how it hasn't, as well as what we hope for the future for ourselves and for younger generations. As always we wrap up the episode with gripes about getting older and nuisance animals and grapes to good TV and snacks discoveries.

Happy Wednesday Weed Whackers and welcome back to another episode of She’s in the Weeds! We’re kicking off this episode with a refreshing gulp of banana cream Olipop, a quick physics lesson, and a funny story about the defacing of a local public figure’s smile. Next Sam’s sharing her thoughts on Boograms at her daughter’s school (it’s giving cracking Gretchen Weiners), Hollis is sharing an update on her Dancing with the Stars viewing experience, and we’re discussing a recent headline involving a lawsuit against the now very popular Terrifier horror franchise. Next, it’s a quick PSA to Gen Z and their pursuit of vintage Victoria’s Secret slip dresses, some commentary on influencer culture, and a quick circle back to one of our favorite TikTok moms. Then it’s time to get in the weeds with a much overdue reality check! We’re discussing some recent Bravo breakups and the recent goings ons in Salt Lake City and Orange County. From Brittany’s cringeworthy meeting with her daughter to Heather Dubrow taking every drug she can get her hands on we’re going to mention it all! As always we wrap it up with gripes about car etiquette and wardrobe mishaps and grapes to new snack discoveries and mother nature’s beauty. Let’s get in the weeds!

We're yapping about smoke alarm mishaps, fall break travels, trick or treating, and Sam's discovery of new and PROFOUND Hocus Pocus lore. Then it's on to rating our top 5 Halloween treats! Next, we've got some thoughts on Tyra Bank's new business venture, Bradley Cooper's new face, and our own journey's with growing older. Then it's time to get in the weeds with a revived segment! Remember that one time we decided to have a pop culture queen of the month? So do we! We're bringing it back by honoring none other than the iconic Queen herself, Diane Keaton! May she rest in peace. We're sharing a bit about her background, the movies we know and love, and her overall fabulousness. Of course we couldn't mention Diane without chatting a bit about the Woody Allen controversy. We're sharing some thoughts on the alleged facts, Diane's reaction to it, and what it might be like trying to process your thoughts and feelings when someone you once loved and admired allegedly does something unfathomable. Next, we're sharing some thoughts on Kristen Bell's strange and untimely anniversary post to her husband which causes Hollis to reflect on her own social media behavior. As always we're wrapping things up with gripes about public facilities and loud appliances and grapes to good bites and pet hypes. See you in the weeds!
