This was a week of obstacles for Elizabeth and Kayla was put out of her comfort zone by having to submit a video about herself for a contest.

Kayla and Elizabeth take the time to talk about Midwestern ways of talking and end up talking about weird foods they love so much. Puppy Chow anyone?

Today Kayla and Elizabeth order in instead of cooking a new hotdish and talk about pivoting. The episode takes a lot of turns, and they still talk too much about food, but overall, it's a fun ride about how we handle change in our lives.

Just a heed of warning: we do talk about body image, weight, and all things involved with those sticky subjects in this episode. If that's just not something you can handle, please take care of yourself this week, and we'll see you next time.

Elizabeth has a quarterlife crisis about her personal style (she's still having it, don't look at her directly...she might combust). Kayla threatens to take her shopping (ew). And they talk the trauma of it all. Plus, Elizabeth makes the MOST delicious food Kayla has ever had (and yet, Kayla STILL TALKS ABOUT BUGS).

We may never know how this friendship will last, but we do know this episode is a treat!

Kayla and Elizabeth survive another week of friendship (no discussion of bugs) and talk about the toxic culture around faking it until you make it, how it affects running a small business (being an LGBTQIA+ employee in a wacky economy), and enjoy another hot dish.We also must note for people celebrating Ramadan, we do talk about food during this episode. So I'd recommend waiting until after your fantastic holiday to dig in.

In the first-ever episode of the Thought Dish, Kayla and Elizabeth sit down and talk about how their friendships have changed over time. Plus, Elizabeth makes a discovery about her dreams and Kayla immediately tries to ruin it by talking about bugs. Even though Elizabeth made a delicious hot dish.Will this podcast last another week? Will their friendship end because Kayla just HAD to tell Elizabeth about a bug? Find out in this week's episode of the Thought Dish.

Your biweekly serving of messy, loud, but most of all authentic stories from two upper midwestern babes just trying to get by. Enjoy our unfiltered hot takes, bite-sized wisecracks, and healthy spoonfuls of self-discovery between mouthfuls of hotdish (no hotdish will be consumed during the podcast recording...just lusted over).
