Syd and Soph ask them to share their #StraightCandidMoments right off the bat, and let's just say.. they fit right in with the poop talk and grooming horror stories. So who are these candid boys? How did they get involved in Straight Candid? Are they single? The girls even put them in the hot seat for a quick round of red flag or dealbreaker. Soph explains her past weekend where she ended up with booty cheeks in her face and Syd shares an embarrassing moment that happened while feeling spicy with Jordan. This episode is energizing, motivating, and absolutely hilarious. Syd and Soph really feel like they hit the jackpot with bringing Adam and Jackson onto the team - we can’t wait for you to meet the new men behind the scenes. ENJOY!

Nothing like a good ol' free for all - This week Syd and Soph go into the episode with an open and unplanned agenda. The girls begin the episode by riffing about their #straightcandid moments. Syd chats about unexpected run-ins with her dentist, while Soph explains her recent weekend obsession with Bootleggers. Don't mind the sniffles as both the girls are coming down with a cold.
The conversation flows into the topic of unnecessary girl sass and being ghosted. What is even considered "ghosting" in this day and age and why is it becoming more common? Why are some women a victim of a sass stare? Syd asks a hypothetical question regarding what to do if your best friend doesn't like your significant other - needless to say both Syd and Soph struggled to answer this.
Stay 'til the end to hear some hilarious listener #straightcandid moments and the reveal of the answers to their instagram poll questionnaire. ENJOY!

This week’s episode is all about Ex’s. Syd and Soph dive into their own history with breakups and why previous boyfriends never worked out. The girls laugh about TikTok boys, booty hole injuries, and Syd's Herbalife sh*ts. TMI? What's new. This episode revolves around breakups and how to move the F on in the healthiest way possible. The girls share tips and tricks on this - how to get over it and focus on YOU. As Syd would say, "pull yourself together Carol!"
In order to validate your own "bad breakup," Syd and Soph share some listener breakup stories that will leave your jaw dropped. You think your breakup was bad? Just wait. Soph wants to know why sex with your ex is always so good while Syd reminisces on a time a few good friends saved her from making a decision she would’ve likely regretted. Don’t worry, we couldn’t forget to share listener’s thoughts on the topic. Why do we keep going back? Is sex with the ex awkward or elite?

You got a friend in us. The Straight Candid Duo, Syd and Soph, are back to chat about all things friendships. Making friends is hard, navigating friendships pre and post college is hard, balancing your significant other WITH your friends is hard. The girls offer advice and share their personal experience making friends, maintaining friends, and learning that it’s okay to let some friendships fizzle out as our lifestyles shift. We grow and evolve, why wouldn’t we expect our friendships to do the same? Aside from the advice pieces, Syd and Soph always make time for upbeat banter and story telling - including Syd flashing the Uber Delivery guy and Soph explaining her "flirting fail" from the past weekend. She sincerely apologizes to the girlfriend, LOL. And wait until you hear the listener #StriaghtCandid moment this week about a date gone wrong which raises the question - “Do you expect the guy to pay on the first date?” We know you’ll enjoy this week’s episode as much as we did!

Bonus content alert! THE GANGS ALL HERE…but with tequila! Andrew Inserra and Declan Brown are jumping in FRONT of the mics rather than producing Straight Candid BEHIND the scenes. The Backpocket Production stemmed from two average dudes with one big vision: to become a podcast production company, starting with Straight Candid Podcast. The team shares stories about success, failures, and awkward moments - all while playing an intrusive card game and having an aggressive happy hour.... Eeek! Don’t judge us. The girls put Declan on the spot by bringing up the fact that he took BOTH Syd and Soph on a ‘date’. Soph gets Andrew sweatin' by bringing up a recent text message that she received from a previous lover. Needless to say, there were plenty of risks (and shots) taken during this episode. All fun and games aside, the girls wanted to finally leave space for the two boys who urged them to start the podcast in the first place. Love you guys!

The season is upon us… IT’S HOT GIRL SUMMER (HGS)! Syd and Soph offer their own definitions of what hot girl summer looks like to them. Soph explains that it is our turn to "date like a man," while Syd shares tips on how she plans to keep her relationship spicy this summer. Tis' the season to be confident and know your damn worth. *finger snaps*
Although Soph confidently says she is not looking for a serious relationship, she does go on to share sneaky tactics to keep him interested. Dare we even say "tips on how to play the game." She shares the importance of confidence, inconsistency, and sustaining the mentality in knowing that "YOU ARE JUST FINE WITHOUT HIM."
Syd offers an entirely different perspective as she shares her "taken" Hot Girl Summer tips, chatting about holding onto your independence, and also compromise in arguments, communication, and different sex drives. HGS is right around the corner - We hope you enjoy!

Disclaimer: If you are related to either Syd or Soph… please skip this episode and tune back in next week. Cause...LET’S TALK ABOUT SEX BABY, LET’S TALK ABOUT THE ORGASM-ING. The girls sit down and talk about all things surrounding the word orgasm. Masturbation. The female climax. If you're still reading/listening, can't say we didn't warn you. It is true that Syd and Soph share some juicy tips and tricks regarding your O, but they also aim to chat about the guilt and shame that surround the female orgasm. Just as Syd says in this episode, “Just because it happens in private doesn’t mean it should be frowned upon and not talked about." The girls drop some INSANE statistics around the male vs female orgasm gap that will absolutely blow your mind. Let's normalize the word, normalize the conversation, normalize self discovery, and normalize COMMUNICATION with your significant other. Syd shares a personal story that we like to call- “the case of the missing batteries" and Soph explains that there is fine line between bedroom dominance and bedroom aggression as she recently dealt with a disrespectful date. All we have to say is #readtheroom. Listen, rate, subscribe, and enjoy!

This week’s episode is all about ‘cancel culture’ and the surface level assumptions of Syd and Soph’s followers. The girl’s explain what ‘cancel culture’ is and how they think it has affected society - and even them, especially with the creation and decisions made for this podcast. Are they afraid of being cancelled? They share some recent f*ck up comments that they mistakingly made and explain that THEIR PODCAST HAS 0 EDITS. The girl’s also posted on their social media this week asking for followers to "make an assumption about me" - and Syd and Soph do not sugar coat the responses. They read ALL of them, including the more offensive comments. Soph chats about how some of her followers know her too well (bad texter, too independent for a SO) while Syd debunks the comments that "she is intimidating" and she "must not use hair products." ?? As always, the girls not only share their own straight candid moments of the week, but also read a few listener moments. Let's just say the sentence "how was your day" will never be the same.

Welcome Hannah and Callan - our first gay couple on Straight Candid! These two Minneapolis locals met on the soccer team at University of St. Thomas where their friendship turned intimate very quickly with their connection. They share crazy stories about how they maintained a "secret relationship" before being openly gay, dating men prior, and how it felt to finally give into their attraction for each other. Learn why these two ladies do not necessarily identify as “lesbian" and listen as they debunk some inappropriate gay/lesbian myths. And, yes... we got you answer on scissoring. LOL! Hannah tells a funny story about Callan's first words to her while Callan reminds Hannah about the time she spent "entertaining" the soccer boys. We chat about gender role myths and how it’s not about gender, but instead about lifestyles and likes; gay couples are no DIFFERENT. We know our listeners will enjoy the upbeat dynamic of these two and their sheer true love for each other. Straight Candid aims to create space for these real conversations regarding ALL forms of sexuality. We hope our listeners fall in love WITH love after listening to the banter between Han and Cal - Syd and Soph sure did. Enjoy lovebirds!

Well Said with Syd is where real stories, bold brands, and voices doing life differently all sit at the same table. It is for anyone who wants to build a personal brand or business they are proud of and learn from the stories, mistakes, and pivots of people who have lived it.
I am Syd Kaye, a brand strategist, wellness coach, community builder, and real-life hype woman who is still very much in my own becoming. On this show, you will hear a mix of solo episodes from my own life and honest conversations with founders, wellness professionals, creatives, and people who took the unconventional route and built something meaningful out of what they have been through. Together we talk about confidence, relationships, friendship breakups, identity shifts, nervous system support, women’s wellness, routines, and building strong personal brands and businesses as you grow, not just after you have “arrived.”
Well Said is also connected to The Wellthy Circle, my women’s community for connection and proximity to others 'doing it', and to Cozy, my brand strategy agency for founder-led brands. I share what I am learning in real time inside my agency, my community, and my own life, so you can take the stories, language, and lessons into your next moves, even when they feel a little scary.
Follow Well Said with Syd for honest, thoughtful conversations about life, wellness, relationships, and brand-building that you can use to shape a personal brand, business, and relationships you are proud of.
