Other Girls Media 408 Episodes Sep 29, 2026

Hi, I’m Mal your Gal Pal and welcome to Pink Desk. Pull up a chair as we talk about pop culture, dating, being single, friendship, faith, and womanhood. The show explores what it looks like to build a meaningful life when your life doesn’t necessarily look the way you thought it would. Expect conversations where you can have questions, learn something new, disagree sometimes, grow in faith, and still have a really good time together. The goal is to feel like sitting down with a friend who makes you laugh, think, and reminds you that your life is worth intentionally building.
