Spiral

This…. is Elaine and this episode…. is what I would call an OG episode of Spiral. It’s filled with love, laughter and discussions on the song “Beggin,” rare Starburst, the giant touring duck in the river, Party City and disturbing Halloween costumes, doing godly activities in the “Christmas area,” rice pilaf, and Jason Sudeikis. We completely forget to do angel / devil of the episode (on purpose….jk), but I’d say we’re both angels this week…. don’t forget to show yourself some love and we’ll look forward to seeing you again in 2 weeks! BTW I remembered to pay rent…. girlboss alert.

Hello Spirals! I'm saluting - It’s Elaine again. I’m so happy to share this episode of our podcast with you, where we discuss critical topics in culture, media, and politics, including: Friendly’s waffle fries and other crunch snacks (Purpa Doritas), why baristas are bad (sorry), Lauren’s business with the cafeteria, @fatkidsdeals being really helpful during the pandemic, Katy Perry’s Teenage Dream album, pouring soup on paintings, and how you HAVE to remember that you don’t get just one chance at anything. PS SPOILER ALERT FOR SQUID GAME. Okay love you bye.

In this episode of Spiral, my cohost and I discuss the movie Cats (it’s 2021), Lauren gets sincerely pissed about how many tabs I have open on my laptop, we think about a special condiment that I always forget and Lauren always remembers, the way that “indefinite” is sometimes, shockingly, the right word, hearing silly voices in my dreams, and Olive Garden salad not trying (RESPECT)!

Hi to the girlies (non gendered), it’s Elaine! This week on Spiral, we have what I might call a “classic episode” with a “twist” where we start to learn “how biweekly works,” (since episodes are famously every other week now). Consider this your alert if you didn’t already know… and prepare. The only real thing you have to really know about this ep is that there’s loud music playing outside of BOTH our apartments and it’s not our fault! We talk about what songs would be our DJ songs if we were really famous, remember childhood treasures, freak over Mario Kart and NYC flooding (which actually turns into a discussion on renter’s insurance… sorry... legit). I would read any poem right now. No I wouldn’t. Yeah I would yeah I would yeah I would. Thanks for hearing us again this week - love to you all, mwah!

WELCOME TO OUR FIRST-EVER GUEST EPISODE! This is Lauren speaking and I can’t even tell you how excited I am to share this with you. Today we have our mentor, musical hero, and ultimate friend Kevin Sullivan aka Field Medic to discuss lots of things including… Neighbor invasions, fiction vs non, being “anx-shee” before playing a show, the Lorde album and its resemblance to a church service, and the Venn diagram of poets and clowns. This is just the tip of the iceberg, of course. You must listen to hear the rest! Thanks for tuning in WE LOVE YOU AND WILL SEE YOU SOON! XO

Welcome to Spiral …. it’s Elaine. On today’s episode of the podcast, I really talk about how it’s hard to be in a physical reality sometimes (yes, I fully spiral on the ep), Lauren discusses the “accidents” that led to her “stumbling upon” a nude beach, the fact that my writing is in a zine (!!!!!), and Lauren’s (dare I say it) insane relationship with comforters and buying sunset lamps from She*n. We do ultimately have an announcement at 26:50, but there are little secrets about the announcement sprinkled throughout the ep (unintentionally), so make sure you listen… and listen carefully. Thanks for listening to today’s spiralini - fun things around this corner, and the next one! <3

Hi spys! This is Lauren speaking. Welcome to this week’s mini bite! Today is a special episode as we are both recording this from the great state of New York (except I’m in the city and Elaine is upstate…). We talk about a lot of things including pies, falling in a lake, therapy, “getting back to your life”, and elevators and the pandemic. I hope you enjoy this Spiral appetizer. We will be doing mini episodes the entire month of August so BUCKLE IN! See you next week!

Ummmm... hi. It's Elaine... welcome to Spiral! For the month of August, we're going to change our episode structure (we talk about this on the pod do NOT worry), which Lauren has given many names to already: "our mini crunchy eps," "bunchy crunchy episodes," "mini cruncher," "bite sized," "chompers," and "snacks, not meals." On today's spiralini, we share not only this PSA with you, but also discuss a PSA that Taylor Swift and Simone Biles collabed on, the value of an ace, our infamous meet and greet photo with J*ck Ant*n*ff, bug doctors, and how I'm so tired that I need an ice bucket challenge. We recorded / I edited this at crazy hours, so pretty much good luck listening. And see you next week! :)

Hello Kittys! It’s me, Lauren. And to be completely frank I’m extremely honored to introduce you back to our podcast SPIRAL! In today’s episode, we discuss a lot… including the Olympics, ladybug delusions, being a Target employee, Katy Perry karaoke, spiritual sicknesses, and being legit-erally STONED at the nail salon. I hope you enjoyed this reunion episode. I LOVE YOU AND WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU AGAIN!!!!!
