We Digress with Joi and Jess

Remember that billion dollar lotto jackpot? Yeah, we didn't win, but wouldn't it be cool if we had? Joi and Jess dream a bit about what they'd do with a billion dollars, but then they get sidetracked, per usual.

Be gentle, guys. Joi has a migraine, so be sure to drop all the tips and tricks you have for managing that most gnarly of head pain in the comments or hit us up in the DMs over at Instagram. We're also talking mental health and why building a house with Dream Finders Homes will wreck your mental health. (Spoiler alert: Jess wrote this description). Plus, we have a little sidebar about why church singles ministries are, in the words of Jean Ralphio Saperstein, "the woooOOOOooooorst!"

As promised, we're back with Part II of our discussion on church hurt and pastors behaving badly, and heads up, we talk about some sensitive subjects including SA, church abuse, and narcissism. There are surprisingly few digressions in this one, so grab a blendy coffee and pull up a chair. We're getting real today, y'all.

"Celebrity Pastor behaves badly, covers up abuse..." How many times have we heard this sentence uttered? With the advent of the deconstruction movement, Joi and Jess have some thoughts, especially for pastors and ministry leaders. And because we can't not digress (it's literally in our name), Joi survives an ant invasion and Jess gives us an update on her house situation.

Ooof, we got ALL the hot takes on this week's episode. We're solving the world's problems, so grab a notebook and pen and write this down. And then email your congressperson or something. You're welcome, America! Also, The TikityTok thinks Jess is a black woman and Joi gets uncomfortable watching an internet cooking show.

Trigger Warning: There is a brief mention of SA towards the end of the episode.

WE'RE BACK FOR SEASON 3, BABYYYYY! We're catching up on the past few months, and Joi's got a WHOPPER of a TikTok story to tell (Spoiler Alert: It's about feminine hygiene products, but it's not THAT kind of story. You're safe, trust us.) Also, we think Jess gets abducted by aliens around the 1:07 mark. Yeah, it's a long one, but we have a lot to catch up on. Besides. You know you missed us. Also: Jess has a story about a giant, mechanical Jesus.

Guys, it's the Season 2 Finale and technical difficulties got us going out in some kind of way. Never fear, though, audio quality aside, you can tell it's going to be good when Jess immediately forgets her name, Joi reveals the best gift for the Gen Zer in your life, and Jess learns how to Google. Groundbreaking stuff, this.

Don't forget! You can purchase your very own copy of Joi's book, "Beautiflawed: The New Definition of Beauty" at Amazon.com or at JoiSimpson.com

Guys, the day we've been waiting for is HERE! Joi has released her book "Beautiflawed: The New Definition of Beauty." We're so excited for this book and the message inside, so we're spending (most of) the episode chatting about all things Beautiflawed. We do get a little digression in towards the end. Don't worry. AND, we even throw in some technical difficulties right at the end.

You can purchase your very own copy of Beautiflawed at Amazon.com or at JoiSimpson.com
