Taking the Stares

This week, we are aiming to release a few episodes that we have already recorded, and in order to do that, we have to start on Monday. So Happy Monday! We are almost halfway through Season 2 with Episode 14 here, and we talk about some nonsense, moving on, some nonsense, our favorite drinking games and some nonsense. Our audio aficionado made this file size a bit smaller, so our listeners that download us will not have to take up a bunch of storage to keep this one for the road. Thank you to the moon and back for listening - this is a ton of fun for us and we are excited to keep moving forward with it all. Take the stares this week!

TAKING THE STARES TUESDAY ALERT! IF YOU HAVEN'T GIVEN THE NEW SEASON A SHOT YET, NOW IS YOUR CHANCE! It is officially, unofficially and rumored to be Season II of Taking the Stares, and we are finally striking a balance with this whole podcast thing! In fact, we talk all about balance in this episode, and share a couple of laughs (and spelling challenges) while we're at it. Our roles are getting better defined; our brand is becoming stronger - we are building up some momentum with Jessi onboard, and have some 'uge plans in store. Thank you for all of the support so far!

The first episode of Season II kicks off with a bang! We are excited to be having Jessi, our new co-host, joining us for the episode, and we have lots in-store for the next 10 episodes. In this episode, we talk about getting along with (or getting rid of) exes, tips for becoming yourself and navigating relationships in general.  We can't wait to keep this thing going with you all; check us out on Instagram @takingthestares for updates on new podcast episodes – and remember, take the stares!

We record a podcast in Jen’s basement before sending it for Kyle’s birthday. We have finally strayed away from our belligerent drinking stories and offer up some real advice that fits with our message of taking the stares.

We have our second guest on, our old friend Chris @chris__scott11 and we tell funny and embarrassing stories. Hopefully this will make you realize that you are not alone in all your goofy mishaps… if not then hopefully you can at least laugh at us for being idiots.

We got a suggestion on our Instagram to do an entire episode of hot takes, so here it is! We get super basic and acknowledge where our listeners are right and very, very wrong. Check us out on Instagram @takingthestares for updates on new podcast episodes – and remember, take the stares!

We discuss a little bit of pop culture in this episode and start a spelling bee that may never end. Then we cut to the chase and admit that we both probably have some issues with committing to things. We also offer some decent advice sprinkled amongst some vulnerable details from past relationships.

Still riding the high from conquering our audio issues, we dial it back on the drinking stories and talk mostly about tattoos in this episode. As always, we sprinkle in some stories to keep it light throughout. Check us out on Instagram @takingthestares for updates on new podcast episodes – and remember, take the stares!

We fixed our audio issues! We talk about our unofficial/slightly official launch party and the worst (best) hangovers we have ever had. We also discuss our inability to behave in restaurants and sending our best friend off to Georgia.
