From classic staples to controversial sides, we rank the best (and worst) holiday foods in real time, argue passionately about what deserves S-tier status, and expose some deeply unpopular opinions along the way. 

In this episode of The Dive, Cee Cee and Mark rank holiday foods based on an extremely scientific system: intuition, nostalgia, texture tolerance, and whether a dish actually deserves a seat at the table.

We’re back on Reddit, being a little too invested in strangers’ lives.

In this episode of The Dive, Cee Cee and Mark wade through some truly unhinged “Am I Overreacting?” and “Am I the Asshole?” posts featuring birthday dinners gone wrong, open relationships backfiring in real time, a man who cannot stop saying “baby girl,” and a soap-opera-level family secret that blows up a marriage.

Along the way, they talk about:

• When “you’re making me look bad” is actually just… the truth catching up to you
• Why “protecting your peace” doesn’t mean bailing on your friends’ birthdays
• The ethics (and ego) behind opening a relationship for one specific person
• Getting the ick from a first date and why you don’t need a “good reason” to say no
• What happens when an affair baby, a sick sister, and a years-long lie collide

If you’re nosy and love a little drama as a treat, this one’s for you.

We decided to test our grown-up brains with an Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? quiz...and let’s just say, the confidence levels fluctuated. Some questions felt like a breeze, others unlocked memories we definitely left back in elementary school. Did we rise to the occasion or get humbled by a 10-year-old curriculum? You’ll have to listen to find out.

Grab a cup of coffee and your favorite sarcastic comeback. In honor of Gilmore Girls’ 25th anniversary, Cee Cee walks Mark through the world of Stars Hollow...then lets him rank everyone. Expect unhinged opinions, spirited debates, and some surprising S-tier picks.

Am I the a**hole? Am I overreacting? Let's find out! This week, Cee Cee and Mark are reading Reddit stories to decide who's right, who's wrong, and who should just...stop.

Flying vs. driving: the debate that divides families, friendships, and travel budgets. We talk why we always think we’ll drive to save money and how it will be fine, how that never works out, and why Florida is both the destination and the punchline.

This week, Cee Cee and Mark are serving up the spiciest takes you didn’t know you needed...starting with ketchup (yes, it’s controversial), why the dentist is actually kind of awesome, and a handful of other opinions that are bound to make you argue with them in your head.

We’ve all been there: staring down a to-do list that feels like it could eat us alive. In this episode of The Dive, we’re talking about how not to burn out (or drop out) when life gets stacked: building a business, chasing big goals, and, in Cee Cee’s case, tackling law school at night. From color-coded planners to knowing when to call it a day, we share the habits, mindset shifts, and honest confessions that keep us moving forward without losing our minds.

“Company culture” usually means free pizza, awkward icebreakers, and that one Slack channel no one actually uses. In this episode, we get real about building culture without the cringe. From our days on the inside to what we’re creating now, we talk about how to ditch the buzzwords, stop forcing fake fun, and actually build something people want to be part of.

We’ve all seen the viral moments that blow up overnight, but what happens after the hype fades? In this episode, we get real about the myth of virality. Mark shares his journey growing his podcast from the ground up, Cee Cee looks back on her old show (and a rant about the great American front lawn), and together we unpack what it actually takes to build a hit show. Spoiler: consistency = clout.
