Dolly Parton & Tim Curry: The Loss of Two Legends
And! Sometimes! Fridays! We gabbed for a WHILE in this ep, just like old times. Hopefully y’all have some time to kill :) This week we’re aging along with the rest of the gay/artist/weirdo community because of the passing of BOTH Dolly Parton and Tim Curry.

The Monkey's Paw of Being a Pop Girl
And sometimes Fridays! And sometimes UNDER an hour! Can you even believe? This week we are aging aka our brains are literally decaying and atrophying because of a Splatoon brain rot voiceover.

A Drag Queen's Big Brother Betrayal
Ding dooong, two chronically online millennials calling! The world continues to be our oyster and yes, you SHOULD interpret that as yonic imagery. This week we dive into TV and film faves of today and yesterday, and, ultimately, we discover the spectrum of feral Drag Race fandom to tenderqueer Steven Universe simps. Oprah’s name was Orpah? Will a drag queen get dragged in the Big Brother edit? We
The Odyssey is the LOUDEST (and Best) Movie EVER

Is Watching P*rn Cheating? | A Millennial Analysis
We’re baaaaack, did you miss us? We’re not like other girls, because we take normal weeks off and then post on federal holidays. AS IS OUR RIGHT. Rest is anti capitalist and we are nothing if not social justice warriors.
This week we *try* to keep it short and sweet, but naturally we get going on our Topics and Opinions and it’s basically a full length ep. Heather is staying young because of one

The (Predictable) Downfall of the Mormon Wives
WILL MOMTOK SURVIVE THIS???Trust that if we could make an entire podcast just about our real life actual blood relatives, the Mormon wives, we WOULD. But for now, that content lives here.

We’re staying young by trying new things and feeling l

Happy Heather’s Birthday Week to all who celebrate! And ALL of you should be celebrating 🔫🔫🔫This week we start with a bang trying to answer life’s big questions: Are blowjobs as life changing as the gay hockey boys make them look?

Episode 19 - Finally Discussing the Gay Hockey Show
