Today on unfiltered, Lauren flirts with the idea of posing nude for a painting in Paris  (but only if it’s giving “airbrushed Kate Winslet on the Titanic” vibes.) Nicole wonders what she could have achieved in life if she weren’t professionally chained to her kitchen like a countertop spritzing psycho. A listener nominates herself for the weekly  Midlife Meltdown Award after a printer breakdown nearly pushes her over the edge - and we ask the question: is a Live, Love, Laugh mug just a passive aggressive threat at this point? Tune in to find out!
