The Karens episodes

  • Aliens, Abductions, and Area 51: Oh My!

    The Karens take a trip to the final frontier—no spaceship required. Are we alone, or just uninformed? This week, they dive into UFO sightings, government cover-ups, and whether aliens are already among us. From E.T. to Independence Day, the Karens share their favorite extraterrestrials, swap theories about what’s really out there, and debate if the truth is being kept from us. It’s curious, hilarious, and just a little bit suspicious—exactly how we like it.

Expect laughter, shock, and some very questionable mental images.

It’s a hilariously revealing look at their friendship—and why they wouldn’t trade each other for anything.

  • Goodbyes, Do-Overs, and What-Ifs

    The Karens open up about the delicate balance of ending relationships, mending them, and reflecting on the regrets that linger.
