The drinks are strong, the costumes are ridiculous, and our tolerance for scary movies is basically zero. 🎃🍸

Episode 35 is our second Straight Up. Extra Dirty. Halloween special, and we’re celebrating dressed as peanut butter and jelly—with Vampire’s Kiss cocktails, spicy chicken satay, and homemade PB&J sliders.

Between bites, we revisit the horror movies that left a lasting impression: The Exorcist, Friday the 13th, Halloween, and a childhood viewing of Jaws that made even bath time feel dangerous. Add a fear of clowns, some questionable horror movie survival rules, and a plan to watch Halloween on mute, and things get extra dirty.

Expect kitchen innuendo, childhood scare stories, and plenty of laughs from two people who should probably stick to the snacks.

Explicit language and adult humor. Contains horror movie spoilers.

Mikey G has officially opened the doors to his new, larger salon in Boca Raton, and Straight Up. Extra Dirty. is taking you inside the next chapter.

Mikey opens up about the leap of faith it took to grow, the lessons he’s learned from years in the salon industry, and why Mikey G Hair is about much more than one name on the door. It’s a collaboration of artists built around creativity, trust, relationships, and a family-like culture.

We talk about the meaning behind the new space, the green wall symbolizing life and prosperity, the orchids gifted by friends, and the emotional side of being a hairdresser that clients rarely get to see.

It’s about taking risks, trusting your instincts, surrounding yourself with the right people, and having enough faith in what you’ve built to take the next big step.

New location. Bigger vision. One major leap of faith.

Welcome to EP 34: Mikey G’s Leap of Faith. ✂️💜

Reality TV is officially taking over Straight Up. Extra Dirty. — and this episode goes places even we weren't expecting.

L.A. and Mikey G dive headfirst into their biggest guilty pleasures, from 90 Day Fiancé and Sister Wives to Dance Moms, Special Forces and the Housewives universe. But naturally, a simple conversation about television turns into sister wives, full-frontal TV, questionable relationship arrangements, crime-show paranoia, hot flashes, parenting, mother-child bonds and one pineapple that somehow refuses to leave the conversation.

L.A. also opens up about her own reality TV experience, being painted as the villain, and why "reality" television hits a little differently when you've actually lived it.

Then the conversation turns to Teresa Giudice and Gia's experience on Special Forces—and the powerful mother-daughter dynamic that had L.A. reflecting on her own relationship with her son.

And just when Mikey G thinks he knows where the episode is going… there's a surprise waiting for him.

This is reality TV commentary the only way we know how to do it: loud, opinionated, inappropriate and completely Straight Up. Extra Dirty.

Warning: You may never look at a pineapple the same way again.

🍸 Things started with a cocktail recipe.

That's about the only thing that stayed on track.

This week, L.A. and Mikey G mix up a peanut butter whiskey cocktail and somehow end up discussing celebrity hall passes, dating preferences, hairdresser horror stories, concert experiences, Madonna, Morgan Wallen, and a few topics that probably should have stayed off the microphone.

Along the way, L.A. shares some behind-the-scenes stories from life behind the salon chair, the duo debates confidence versus age when it comes to style, and they reveal which celebrities they'd invite for a drink if they had the chance.

It's funny, completely unfiltered, occasionally inappropriate, and exactly the kind of conversation you'd expect from Straight Up. Extra Dirty.

⚠️ Warning: Contains peanut butter whiskey, celebrity crushes, questionable advice, and absolutely zero self-control.

Cheers. 🍻

L.A. had one goal: teach Mikey G how to make homemade energy balls.

That goal lasted approximately three seconds.

What follows is a short but spectacular train wreck filled with nonstop double entendres, debates about grooming preferences, peanut butter mishaps, pickleball references, questionable life advice, and enough ball jokes to carry an entire season of the podcast. 

Somewhere in the middle of the chaos, a batch of energy balls is actually made. Whether they turned out edible is another story.

This may be our shortest episode ever, but it might also be one of the funniest. Every ingredient, every instruction, and every attempt at staying focused immediately spirals into complete madness.

🥜 Homemade Energy Balls
 😂 Unfiltered Conversations
 🎙️ Zero Self-Control
 🔥 Maximum Chaos

If you've ever wondered what happens when two people abandon the script, ignore all common sense, and let the conversation go wherever it wants, this episode is your answer.

Warning: Contains peanut butter, immaturity, and absolutely no adult supervision. 🤣🥜🎙️🔥
