Stop The Internet

In this episode, we’re catching up and chatting about all the random lore that makes us, us. From crossing paths before we officially met, to concert culture, Taylor Swift, The 1975, and SNL, this episode is full of personal stories, chaotic connections, and casual convo. If you love hanging out with your favorite chatty podcasts, this one’s for you. Think of it as a FaceTime call with your besties.

We’re diving into spicy dating hot takes and debating them one by one. But first, a quick rant about how the internet always assumes the worst, and why that leads to way too many hate comments.

Then, we get into the real stuff: ghosting, rejection, and the blurry lines of modern dating. Some of these takes had us nodding in agreement, others sparked serious debate… and we’re only scratching the surface.

If you love honest conversations about dating, relationships, and all the messy stuff in between, this episode is for you.

In this episode, Rebecca and Kelee play their version of Ask Women. No rules, just two pretty normal women in their late twenties/early thirties asking each other the kinds of questions you'd only ask on a long drive, at a sleepover, or at happy hour with the girls. It's like people watching, but people listening. Expect mild takes, honest answers, and the occasional overshare you didn't know you needed.

This week, we’re talking about crazy coincidences. ✨ The episode kicks off with some big life updates from Tricia, then we dive into some truly wild stories. Kelee shares a few recent coincidences that left her speechless, and then we read some from others that gave us full-body chills.

From unexpected connections to moments that feel like fate, these stories are the kind you’ll be thinking about long after the episode ends. Whether you believe in destiny, the universe, or just weird timing… this one’s for you.

In this episode, Kelee gets real about moving on from someone who just isn’t right for you, even if it feels like they’re your soulmate. 💔 She shares honest thoughts on heartbreak, letting go, and how to stop romanticizing someone after they’ve hurt you or ended things.

Kelee also gives her best advice on how to shift your mindset, focus on yourself, and start healing. Later, she reads two real life stories: one about a so-called "twin flame" who’s actually just being disrespectful, and another about a girl who’s unsure if she’s being love bombed early in a relationship.

Whether you’re going through a breakup, questioning someone’s behavior, or just need a little clarity, this episode is full of insight, support, and the reminder that you deserve better.

This week, we took the podcast out into the wild. Join us for a casual, unfiltered episode recorded at happy hour, starting at a bar and ending on a Philly rooftop.

It’s the kind of convo you’d overhear between two close friends: we chat about dating athletes, seeing celebrities in the wild, life in the city, our go-to restaurants and bars in Philly, and how we romanticize everyday moments.

If you love chatty podcasts and feeling like you're hanging out with your friends, this one’s for you. Pour a drink and come join us.

Erin & Kelee are talking all about the highs and lows of traveling with friends. From navigating shared vacation houses to handling tricky money convos, we’re sharing our best tips for making group trips fun instead of stressful. Should couples automatically get the best room? Should the person on the couch pay less? We break it all down.

Later, we dive into a bigger conversation about effort in friendships, and how flaky behavior is making it harder to keep strong connections. If you’ve ever gone on a trip with friends (or tried to plan one), you’ll feel seen in this episode!

In this episode, we’re calling out the societal rules that just don’t sit right with us. From outdated wedding traditions to corporate dress codes and confusing business jargon, we’re questioning why we still follow these norms. We also unpack the chaos of tipping culture, the awkward politics of handshakes (especially how men treat women differently), and other everyday expectations that feel unnecessary or unfair.

If you’ve ever thought, “Wait, why do we still do that?” this one’s for you. Tap in for a chatty, honest conversation that might have you rethinking a few things.

In this episode, Kelee and Tricia let it all out with a full-on rant about the wedding industry. From shockingly high vendor prices and unnecessary travel fees to hidden charges and overpriced dresses, we’re breaking down the costs that make planning a wedding feel impossible. We also talk about shady tactics from some bridal companies, like encouraging brides to size up just to charge more for alterations. If you’ve ever been stressed (or just baffled) by how expensive weddings have become, this conversation will definitely hit home.

Whether you're planning a wedding, part of one, or just love hearing about the behind-the-scenes chaos, this one's for you.

In this episode, we sit down with Zoe and Hannah, who are writers, artists, and the creative duo behind Poking Around Podcast. You might recognize them as the two with typewriters in Central Park, writing custom poems for strangers on the spot. That’s actually how we met them, and we couldn’t wait to dive deeper into their world.

We talk about what it’s like to write poems for others in real time, the wildest prompts they’ve received, how they became writers, and what it feels like to create something deeply personal and then hand it off, never to see it again. We also get into a thoughtful discussion about AI in the creative space and what it means for artists today.

This conversation left us feeling inspired and grateful for human creativity. We hope you love it as much as we did.
