  • Luka Love, Royal Rants, & the Shaggy Showdown - #059
    This week on Drinks With a Side of Gossip, we’re poppin’ bottles and spilling ALL the tea!

    Huge thanks to our beer sponsor Jose and Yvonne Arcadia from Arcadia Construction in Wolfforth, Texas for keeping us hydrated with ice-cold brews this week!

    In Scandals, Sparkles, and Secrets, Luka returns to Dallas and gets a standing ovation—and y’all, Leigh and George are deep in their feelings (Miriam, this one’s for you!). Eric Dane shares his ALS diagnosis but is still heading back to Euphoria, Romeo Beckham’s spicy pics hit social media, and Meghan Markle brings the glam to NYC while Prince Harry visits Ukraine. We also ask: Is it ever okay to write a tell-all about your royal grandma?

    Then it's game time: we debut “And Then…”—the chaotic storytelling game where everything goes off the rails fast—and thanks to listener Tyler D. in Calgary, we play a cartoon edition of the Impressions Game (wait ‘til you hear our Shaggy voices). Leigh accidentally walks in on George while he's asleep and catches him in his most vulnerable moment.

    We make big summer plans (Drinks tour, anyone?!), and we announce our show’s first-ever guest: Pedro Caliente, coming May 2nd… and yes, he’s bringing a surprise.

    In Inbox Confessions, a woman’s boyfriend has a “small” issue, a U.S. expat in Mexico is mad about mariachis, and someone agrees with George about breakfast soup... even if they think he's completely wrong.

    PLUS—don’t miss an all-new episode of The Feel Good Radio Podcast on Monday, where we take it all the way back to May 1992! We’re talking Basic Instinct, Blossom, and the song that made us all jJump, courtesy of Kris Kross.

    It’s episode #059 and we’re louder, looser, and way more ridiculous than ever—cheers!

  • This is August 1994: Rascals, Roseanne, and Rap - #004
    Strap on your platform shoes and dust off your chokers—it’s time to rewind to August 1994!

    In this feel-good time capsule, GeorgeOdem and Miss Leigh Lovely spill all the tea on the hits, fits, and flicks of the month that had us rocking logos, cruising to Coolio, and debating whether Natural Born Killers was deep or just deranged.

    From the childhood chaos of The Little Rascals to the steamy slow jams of Boyz II Men, we’re diving into everything that made the summer of '94 unforgettable.

    Was Murphy Brown a boss babe before her time? Did ER make you believe you had appendicitis every Thursday? And how many of us tried (and failed) to learn All-4-One’s harmonies in the shower?

    Whether you lived it or just wanna know what the hype was, this episode is your backstage pass to a totally '90s August. Let’s go on a Fantastic Voyage, baby!

  • Kenya Gets Canned, Callum Hates The Windsors, and George's Gag Grossed Leigh Out! - #058
    Buckle up, babes—we're swerving through Texas chaos and celebrity mess faster than this weather flips! One weekend it’s snowing, the next it’s 100 degrees. Sound familiar?

    In Scandals, Sparkles, and Secrets, we break down:
    – Kenya Moore's dramatic exit from The Real Housewives of Atlanta
    – Elton John's scary eye infection and lingering vision problems
    – Russell Brand facing serious legal trouble on both sides of the Atlantic
    – Britney Spears dumping her handyman boyfriend, AGAIN (bless her heart)

    Then, our games go off the rails—“Word Association” turns into the Chair & Hair Olympics thanks to George, and “Who’s More Likely To” gets way too personal (Leigh said what?!).

    We fire up the ShawnCam to see if Shawn Mendes is finally at George’s door (he’s manifesting HARD). The Dallas Mavericks honor Luka Dončić with a heartfelt tribute, and yes—he cried and so did we.

    Leigh throws shade at Odem, Texas, and George stands ten toes down defending his hometown. But both hosts unite to stand up for the beautiful women of San Antonio after Charles Barkley's tired old jokes.

    Then, in Inbox Confessions, a listener in the UK wonders if he should take a dream job with Historic Royal Palaces even though he’s totally anti-monarchy?

    Grab your drink and let’s gossip.

  • Back To April 1988: Beetlejuice, "Bright Lights," & Big Hair - #003
    GeorgeOdem and Miss Leigh Lovely are turning the dial all the way back to April 1988 in this nostalgia-packed episode of The Feel Good Radio Podcast!

    From the box office buzz of Beetlejuice and Colors, to the small screen legends like The Golden Girls and A Different World, we’re reliving the pop culture that made 1988 unforgettable. We talk about Michael J. Fox’s party-boy drama, Steven Seagal’s action debut in Above the Law, and the stylish streets of LA Law.

    Musically, it was a powerhouse month—Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, and Rick Astley had us dancing, crying, and rewinding those cassette tapes.

    Speaking of cassettes—remember Sony Walkmans and carefully curated mixtapes? Add in scrunchies, neon everything, and you’ve got the full 80s aesthetic. 

    So grab your hairspray, pop in your headphones, and let’s rewind to when TV was iconic, music was electric, and neon ruled the world.

    This is April 1988, baby!

    We also dive into wild listener emails, get ridiculous with the Impression Game, and chat up a storm while prepping for the actual winter storm rolling in.

    Grab your drink, bring a blanket, and get into this snowy gossip sesh full of laughs, hot takes, and spicy drama.

  • A Crazy Q&A With GeorgeOdem and Miss Leigh Lovely - 0#56
    Get ready for a no-holds-barred episode of Drinks with a Side of Gossip, where Leigh and George tackle the ultimate debate list! From pineapple on pizza to socks in bed, ketchup on eggs, and the ultimate food crime—cold burgers?!

    Plus, Leigh’s tragic phone mishap, self-checkout “discounts,” and whether it's ever okay to eat off the floor (we see you, five-second rule). But that’s not all! George spills on his shocking past as a phone s*x operator, we unpack the worst walks of shame, and debate the best hangover cures.

    Also, we dish on Monterey High’s Aaliyah Chavez who chose the university where she'll continue playing basketball, the Mavericks’ downward spiral, Jerry Jones’ football curse, and our favorite Harry Potter legend, Miriam Margolyes.

    Buckle up—this one’s WILD!

  • Toilet Paper and Cereal: We’re Fighting Today! - #055
    WE'RE BACK!!! We've been out a few weeks because both GeorgeOdem and Miss Leigh Lovely have been sick, but they managed to drag themselves in to record.

    Mother Nature is having a full-blown identity crisis—one day it's freezing, the next we're melting, and the allergies are coming for our souls.

    We debate life's most pressing questions: Over or under for toilet paper? Red vs. blue Powerade? Cube ice or Sonic ice?

    George reveals his Star Trek obsession (EXCEPT for The Original Series), while Leigh confesses her love for classic cars. Plus, a showdown over the best TV theme songs—how does Leigh not know The Facts of Life?!

    And the topic that's going to piss off a whole nation, possible the planet: Is cereal a soup? (Prepare to riot, America.)

    Pour a drink, pick a side, and let’s get into it!

  • Shots Fired: Sick Days, Measles Madness, and Ticket Trouble! - #054
    George’s almost-catastrophe at work led to him taking a rare sick day: Who knew standing next to someone could be so dangerous?

    Meanwhile, measles is making a comeback in West Texas, and we want to know: 
    How and when did vaccines become such a huge controversy?

    We’ve got major news: Feel Good Radio, both the online radio station AND the podcast, will be launching soon, as well as Podcast Primos, a new podcast celebrating Mexican culture and heritage!

    Leigh dives into her football season ticket saga, and we discuss whether it's better to get MORE tickets or BETTER seats. And who’s sitting on the visitor side, anyway?

    Plus, a hilariously bad list of weekend activities that left us speechless.

    Grab a drink and join the fun!
