The band is back together! This week on The Side Chat, Trish and Krissy officially end their beef (prayer hands) and at last the gals get a chance for a proper catch up (see also: trauma dump). Caitlin finally decides to stop vague-tweeting her life and the group dives into some major life updates, big transitions, and poor coping strategies. After escaping from Fart Jail with our baloney sandwiches and breaking down the emotional terrorism that is that ONE episode of Bluey (IYKYK), the girls post up for a SIDE CHAT about a dad nearly getting arrested for refusing to pay to watch his kid play in a basketball tournament–and let's just say, Caitlin may be scouting herself a second husband.

To all the husbands reveling in our anguish: BEWARE. This week on The Side Chat, the girls are beefin'–or at least that's the rumor Caitlin's starting. Tricia has the week off and Caitlin feels like her mommies got divorced and are sharing custody of the pod. But the show must go on–even if that means someone else has to Pull a Trish for once. First order of business: getting our favorite animals officially on the record (FINALLY). Then, we spiral gracefully into why we’re not exactly joys to be around right now, the art of the micro-breakdown, and the singular pleasure of crying in the tub/club. We honor Trish with a moving segway sting tribute and wrap with a work-related SIDE CHAT that may or may not get us disqualified from being human beings. #HappyInternationalWomensDay

This week on The Side Chat, Murphy's Law is in full effect–and has even claimed one of our own! That's right, the ladies are down a mom and Tricia and Caitlin are forced to soldier on with a glaring Krissy-shaped hole in the pod (and their hearts). But fear not, the gals still manage to go HARD IN THE PAINT despite Krissy's absence (nay, in her honor)–because we're no quitters (despite what it might say in Caitlin's calendar). The girls unpack their kids terrible taste in music, broken fridges (and dreams), and the allure of dissociating to YA content despite being #under40. After a quick throwback sting, it's time for a SIDE CHAT about a working mom witch hunt and the fallacy of work-life balance.

This week on THE SIDE CHAT, the ladies are doing great. No, really. GREAT. Totally thriving. Nothing to worry about here AT ALL. Sure, our mental health is hanging on by a chicken sleazer salad, but that won't stop the gals from getting Krissy up to speed on all things White Lotus just in time for the finale–including planning our own 3 person girls trip (we learned nothing from this season). After a quick Jeremy PIVOT over to a meeting of the Natasha Rothwell Appreciation Club, the girls talk about fittin' dis fit-ness in their lives by upgrading our hot mom walks with weighted vests–as if the weight of motherhood wasn't enough!!! Piper, nooo!!! Ahem. The ladies wrap it up with a SIDE CHAT about inter-office affairs, the red flags of office drinking culture, and why sometimes work happy hours need a 2 drink limit.

This week on The Side Chat, the gals are renting clothes and whole new identities postpartum–because snapback culture can lose our numbers. After divulging their go-to karaoke songs, the ladies JEREMY PIVOT into celebrity sightings, whether Krissy is actually tall, and selling feet pics to avoid dreaded homeownership tasks. Speaking of unpleasant things, the girls also discuss the horrors or rawdogging a restaurant visit with your kids without any distractions (NB: our lawyers have advised we stop referring to it as that)–before segueing over to a SIDE CHAT(GPT) about someone over-ordering "for the table" at a group dinner–only to secure the leftovers for herself.

This week on The Side Chat, the gals are wartime reporting from the trenches of motherhood. We’re talking about the consequences of parenting other people’s kids (spoiler: Caitlin is yelling at all the neighborhood kids), 4 year olds rocking full glam for dance recitals, and the surprisingly emotional milestone that is baby’s first haircut. After securing tickets to Tailor Swit's Eons Tour (no relation), the ladies segue over to a SIDE CHAT about surgically removing flaky parents who bail on hangouts last-minute from your social circle.

Here's a little math problem for all you Side Chicks out there: what does 1.5 functioning brain cells after a girls weekend in Palm Beach + 1 sensory deprivation tank + 1 unsolicited email from a work colleague with limited social skills + 1 landscape architect on the brink of being DOGEd equal? This week's episode of The Side Chat, of course! Get out your geometry books and #2 pencils (and hell, throw on your facial massager while you're at it), it's time to sneak into the teachers' lounge for a another work-related SIDE CHAT with the gals who only remember one thing about calculus: it says you + me = us.

Ward, don't be so hard on the Side Chicks. It's a new week which can only mean one thing: the ladies of The Side Chat are crowning a new winner of "Worst Week Ever." It's a tight race to the bottom as the gals take on stomach bugs while a husband is out of town and a freak accident involving a crib and Native deodorant (#notsponsored). But in the immortal words of Winston Churchill (or was it Desmond Kaufman?): if you're going through hell, KEEP GOING–and that's exactly what the girls do as they segue over to the SIDE CHAT about a bonafide conman that honestly should have its own Dateline episode.

This week on The Side Chat, the ladies are giving away their home addresses, their husbands' blood types, and official licensed Side Hats to anyone who wants them (no questions asked). After talking entirely too much about producer Evan (cock in the hen house!), the girls unpack why motherhood itself is an intrusive thought–and then HARD PIVOT over to a Side Chat about a bad ex boss who just won't fade away into a distant LinkedIn memory.

In this week's episode, the ladies of The Side Chat are kindly asking the universe and society at large to LOSE OUR NUMBERS. After a long week, the girls are bringing the Thursday energy as they grasp desperately for their words and come up with new shorthands for the sentiment "I want to go missing" (shout out to Beyonce #sponsorus). After ogling Krissy's hair transformation (what is she, single??) and unpacking Trish's Dupe of the Week (spoiler: it involves being bamboozled by a ghost kitchen), the gals unpack their very first work-related SIDE CHAT about office oversharing–and hoo boy does it set the bar high (or low depending on who you ask). So lay down your tarps and grab a slice of Detroit style pizza and have a listen!
