Rub some dirt in that death and get over it - DISENFRANCHISED GRIEF Jun 30, 2026 4393 If imposter syndrome had a baby with grief, it would be named Disenfranchised.

We're leaving our skid mark on the world - Best of Patreon Jun 2, 2026 5001 We've had a loss in the L&T family and in order to give ourselves an appropriate break, now that we're back from tour, we're taking this week to highlight some of our favorite moments from Patreon.

Amber, if you’re listening, could you tell me you’re not mad at me? - TOURROR STORIES May 26, 2026 3879 Ciara finally got a new phone after continuing to shatter the back of it. With only a few shards left in place, she decided it was time to upgrade. In doing so- she locked herself out of the emails that would have made this week's episode a Scandals one. We hope the tangents only retelling of our first leg back on tour will scratch the story itch for you until next time! These may be first world p

Things you want to hear right before you wedding - ICKS May 5, 2026 3979 Some tiktoks stick with you for years and one about ICKS has lived free in Ciara's head. There's very few things that please her more than a good comment section and this episode is an unhinged as the responses we found. If we were making a personal favorites playlist, this would immediately go towards the top of it. If you're in a funk and need your friends to cheer you up with bits galore and co

Goodbye to my day, it's done - WAITING MODE Apr 28, 2026 4385 So you found yourself in a grown up time out, pausing your responsibilities for no reason in particular only to beat yourself up afterwards?

He died and that's your fault - Trolley Problems Apr 21, 2026 4502 A classic Trolley Problem is a pillar of psychological and sociological studies. If you're unfamiliar, the OG Trolley P is “The trolley problem is a classic ethical thought experiment: a runaway trolley threatens five people; you can pull a lever to divert it to a track killing only one person, but you directly cause that death. It highlights the conflict between utilitarianism (maximizing lives s

I will never financially recover from the gift shop - DISNEY CRIMES Apr 14, 2026 4345 Because we can't let a magical moment stay magical, we decided to balance out the joy Ciara experienced by sharing stories of the horrors others experienced while vacationing at the alleged "happiest place on earth."

That's how we felt trying to find a topic this week. Nothing fit right, everything seemed silly and we just wanted the comfort of a couch rot btch fest. Mama's get what mama's want and a couch rot btch fest we had. THANKS SPONSORS- Download Cash App Today: https://

Drill practice on that mustache, brother - PRESIDENT RANKINGS Mar 3, 2026 4553 Two people told Ciara that they liked the ranker episodes so naturally, what she heard was "everyone wants you to look up a list to react to." Our lists of choice this week? What presidents are most likely to win in a fist fight and which president would be the best bender buddy. If we're real, we don't want politicians near anything we do, but imagining some of them getting their asses kicked hea

We’ve gotta fight hate with love - Herstory of Marsha P. Johnson Feb 24, 2026 4356 We're celebrating an incredible woman in queer, black and feminine liberation, Marsha P. Johnson. If the name sounds familiar, that's because 1. she's iconic and 2. she was a star discussed in the Stonewall Riot episode. She deserves more time from all of us, so we circled back to tell more of her story. If there's one thing you leave here with, it's a quote from Marsha herself, which rings as tru

He made up potential vehicular homicide - AND I STAYED Feb 17, 2026 4469 In today's episode, we share listener submissions of the absolute wild situations they experienced in relationships and still stayed. There will be no judgement while listening because we've all been there. Truly, we've never had so many stories fill our inboxes. It is almost like we have an audience full of empaths who desperately want to fix people and will tolerate entirely too much in pursui

Put your secrets in our box, or whatever - HO-RROR STORIES Feb 10, 2026 5362 We've got a special Valentine's Day treat for you! The first 15 minutes of the show features a Speed Date between our very own Cici and Christian from That's Pretty Dark Podcast! It becomes very clear post date that Jeri & Ciara have had very different expriences when it comes to seagulls. Something we do agree on though? That these Ho-rror stories are some of our juiciest yet! If you'd like to se

He's fully erect and drank all your coffee - OCALA NATIONAL FOREST Feb 3, 2026 3926 We understand the importance of waiting until AFTER you return from a trip to reveal where you went. You avoid people knowing you weren't home, you increase your personal safety by not giving people access to your current whereabouts, and you guarantee an uncomplicated schedule while on your trip. After sharing hints about where we spent our work retreat, we really wish we would have had your inpu

How quickly it was dumping on us - Oops All Tangents Jan 26, 2026 4591 We heard you. You like when we don't have a topic and brain dump all over you. Unfortunately, there was a frosty lil biotch named fern who decided that she wanted to drop her 18 inches on our heads, making it impossible for us to get together to record this week. Here is a COVID throwback of Coach Cici and Sleepy Jer. THANKS SPONSORS -Wake up with clearer skin, smoother hair, and cooler sleep

You know him, you love him, Billy Shakes - The MacB*th Curse Jan 20, 2026 5442 Be advised that this episode is heavy on the tangents. If you're here for some lore and/or history- you'll need to skip ahead about 40 minutes. Give us a break, our name isn't Ladies & Topics for this reason. The topic you ask? Is that the question? After name dropping a certain play last week, our DM's were FLOODED with people demanding we expand on the curse associated with that one play about t

Congratulations, you’ve been pooped on - Superstitions Jan 13, 2026 4939 This episode is a funny ha ha, definitely not serious ep about quirky little sayings that have transcended time. Are you more than a little sticious? This episode is for you. And to our OCD baddies- please remember that before you adopt one of these as a new intrusive thought, not everything is meant to be taken home from the grocery store. We will listen to why it's lucky to be pooped on and car

You kind of look like a baby I gave up one time - LISTENER SCANDALS Jan 6, 2026 4705 Starting 2026 off with an episode that is leaving us with more questions than answers. I hope every single writer of the stories from today's episode listens and responds back so we can update everyone. There's fake death, there's a real dirty parent trap situation and back to back coochie. I mean, 2 coochie stories isn't a lot, but it is shocking to have two coporate cooch stories sandwiched toge

Regret and relief, make those be friends - 2025 REFLECTION Dec 30, 2025 5381 It's the episode we wait all year for- it's the 2025 reflection.

911, I’m having a garage sale - HOA Rules Dec 16, 2025 4140 Thank you, internet, for reminding us that there are groups of adults who are obsessed with making rules and regulating their neighbors.

You asked for this, thanks for nothing - Limerence Pt. 1 Nov 11, 2025 4115 We're diving into our own psyche's again in this episode to see how this weeks favorite tiktok word relates to us. We're opening up our past and present personal lives to the internet once again in the name of *healing.* Limerence sounds cute, sweet, bright and sunny but that too happens to just be a made up story in my head, it's actually a mental trap that far too many of us fall into.

A little part of me will always hate me - DYSBT? Nov 4, 2025 4500 We mentioned the Do You Stand By That? series in a recent episode and we felt like the week we lose an hour of daylight would be the perfect time to revisit potentially dumb things we said in our past.

Jeri & Christine were given a topic to cover and they followed that rubric as loosely as one possibly could.

Introducing: CRIMES OF… Sep 23, 2025 485 Power. Fame. Obsession. Betrayal. These are more than headlines. They are the forces behind some of the most unforgettable crimes in history.

Dissociation Station, I'm driving the train - Unknown Number Sep 23, 2025 4412 A couple weeks ago, Netflix shook the world with one of the most perplexing and emotionally complicated documentaries we've seen in a long time. We watched as a mystery circled back to a perpetrator who unleashed a pack of internet psychologists to dissect the inner workings of a family whose lives were changed forever by an unlikely Catfish. Of course we had to weigh in!This episode is sponsored

I'm the chicken now, you idiots - Guinness World Records Sep 9, 2025 4024 One of our favorite childhood hyperfocuses is the topic of this week's episode.

An “I feel naked in front of the class” moment - OCD Aug 12, 2025 6154 Our office flooded so we've set up shop at Jeri's house.

I’m disgusting on the inside - Understanding BPD Jun 3, 2025 3888 This episode was somewhat of an accident We don't always know what our triggers are but over the last few years, when they've been activated, we decide to lean in and ask questions to understand ourselves and each other better. Because this was an impromptu episode, this isn't a deep dive into BPD or an episode with any resources. This may be something we revisit in the future, but for now pleas

Hate it, I don’t care, I’m having a great time - Spotlight Effect May 27, 2025 4844 Do you ever walk into a room and feel like all eyes are on you? Do you feel like you immediately know what they're thinking, and that it's inevitable negative? Turns out you're not the only one.

Everyone was a good option if you lowered your standards - Ho-rror Stories Feb 11, 2025 4523 Valentine's day is the perfect time for us to bring out another fan favorite submission episode.

I guess attempted murder runs in the family - Sharing your Scandals Jan 28, 2025 4673 We haven't told you stories since last year, can you believe it? It should be a crime.

Lock me up! - ADHD Jan 21, 2025 5031 You’ll be just as shocked as we were to learn that after 5 years with mics, two diagnoses and a very clear theme of tangents- we have never actually had an episode on ADHD.
