• Everything We Love, Hate, and Secretly Judge About the Holidays
    Dec 21 2025

    One wears a Santa hat. One is wearing black. Guess who wore what!

    Because somehow—it's all perfectly "talk sh*t" festive.

    In this episode, we're dishing on our favorite holiday traditions, the food we look forward to all year, how Sarah has 2 Christmas trees, and how Michele rejects a few rules and celebrates with her amazing Mishmas.

    We talk about:

    Decorating chaos
    Comfort food
    Holiday joy (and how we wish people were nicer)
    And how weirdly healing it can be to make your kind of season—no matter what it looks like

    New episodes drop weekly
    Share your favorite holiday traditions—we might read them on the show!

  • Us… But In Another Universe
    Dec 14 2025

    Which One of Us Is the FBI Profiler? Wait for it…

    In this week's episode, we leave this timeline on read and hop on over to the multiverse—where infinite versions of us are living totally different (and sometimes wildly better?) lives.

    We ask the important questions:

    Would Michele be a no-nonsense FBI profiler... or just someone who knows too much?
    Would Sarah have become a stand-up comic touring the world with emotionally devastating punchlines?
    Is Michele secretly a super chill mom in another dimension (no minivan, minimal PTA involvement)?
    Could Sarah be the CEO of a mega-business empire that runs on iced coffee, intuition, and hard boundaries?

    Listen if you've ever wondered who you'd be if you'd made just one different choice… or if you're 92% sure you're meant to be living near water with a mysterious past.

    New episodes every Sunday

  • Shows We Love and Why We're Subscribed to 97 Things
    Dec 7 2025

    This week, we're talking about the TV shows that stole our hearts, broke our brains, and how much we loathe streaming bills.

    Think:
    Deep obsession with all things alien related (but only if the humans are in peril)
    Chills (and possible nightmares?) about The Fall of the House of Usher
    Softcore nostalgia for Little House on the Prairie
    Aggressive rejection (Sarah) and keep love (Michele) of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives

    We've got hot takes, comfort picks, and strong feelings about the fact that we're now subscribed to six streaming services just to rewatch one thing in fuzzy socks. Justice for our wallets.

    PLUS:
    We want to hear your faves too—send us your underrated gems, old favorites, and shows you'd rewatch annually like it's a holiday.

    Listen if:
    You love a strong TV opinion, secretly cried at the Lasso finale, and have no idea how to cancel Apple TV.

    New episodes every Sunday
    DM us your rides-or-die shows @talkshitandlaugh—no judgment (unless it's Mormon Wives).

  • Why Are We Like This? The Embarrassing Episode (We Might Regret This)
    Nov 30 2025

    Ever look at your own life and think:
    Why am I like this?

    Same.

    In this episode, Sarah and Michele go fully off the rails in the best way—comparing daily habits, weird quirks, and questionable routines that somehow… still make sense?

    Sarah doesn't wash her face—new habits needed!
    Michele has a multi-step PM skincare lineup and lives for it
    We talk about how we both sleep, eat, unwind, and notice all the small things we don't realize are… weird
    What kind of dogs we are?
    And we ask the big question: do we actually want to change, or are we just delightfully broken in cute ways?

    Spoiler: this episode is not about fixing yourself. It's about loving the version of you who texts from the toilet and loads the dishwasher "wrong" every night.

    Listen if you need a laugh, a little self-acceptance, and permission to stop pretending you're doing it all right.

  • FRIENDSGIVING! What Are Your Answers?
    Nov 23 2025

    Stuffing, Side-Eyes & Silly Questions: Our Thanksgiving Special

    Warning: this episode pairs best with stuffing and a secret glass of cabernet.

    This week? We're talking turkey, traditions, and the most fun way to spend Thanksgiving—with ridiculous questions, lots of laughter, and absolutely zero forced small talk.

    In this episode, we:

    • Talk Thanksgiving chaos, traditions, and secret survival tips
    • Share the actual fun parts of the holidays (Hint: it's not the cooking)
    • Pull silly (and totally entertaining) question cards from a girlfriend convo deck and ask each other the wildest stuff
    • Swap stories, crack up, and keep it very unfiltered
    • Forget the forced gratitude circles—we're here for real connection + second helpings

    This episode is super fun, cozy, deeply unserious, and basically an invitation to sit at our table.
    (No pants with buttons required.)

  • The Wrong Assumptions About Us!
    Nov 16 2025

    Spoiler alert: People are usually wrong.

    This week, we're unpacking the assumptions people make about us—and how often they're way off.

    Is Michele a total extrovert… or just really good at pretending she doesn't want to go home early?
    Does Sarah need the spotlight 24/7… or does she actually just love a solo nap and not talking to anyone ever?
    Have we always been confident… or is it just that we stopped explaining ourselves?

    In this episode, we reveal:

    The weirdest, most hilarious assumptions people make about us
    How personality isn't always what it looks like on the outside
    Why we each misunderstood the other at first!
    The difference between being perceived and being understood

    This one's funny, honest, and sneakily deep—because sometimes the most freeing thing is saying:
    "This is who I really am. Take it or leave it."

  • MOVIES: Faves & Ones We Can't Believe The Other Hasn't Seen Yet And More
    Nov 9 2025

    Blockbusters, Tearjerkers, and "Wait, You Haven't Seen That??"

    You can tell a lot about someone by their favorite movie—and this episode?
    Yeah, we go all the way in. On comfort films, ugly cry classics, questionable 90s crushes, and the movies we still haven't gotten around to (don't come for us—yet).

    In this episode, we share:

    Our favorite movies of all time (from rom-coms to chaos-core classics)
    The films that made us ugly cry on the couch—and we'd watch again anyway
    The comedies we can quote in our sleep (and probably have)
    The iconic movies the other still hasn't watched—and why we're personally offended
    The movies that saw us through sick days, rough times and the need for giggles (and scares)
    And the underrated gems we want you to add to your watchlist right now

    Whether you're looking for a soul-level rewatch or a popcorn-fueled laugh, this is your permission to hit play, cry a little, and remember how powerful movies can be when life feels completely out of plot twists.

    💭 Listen in for a fun chat with friends so you'll know what to watch when you need to laugh, cry, get scared—or curse-laugh your way through the credits with snacks in bed.

  • What Does Self-Care Look Like In Our 50's?
    Nov 2 2025

    Self-care in your 50s isn't always about spa days or skin serum.
    Sometimes? It's about being alone for an entire afternoon and not having to answer to a single soul.

    This week, Sarah and Michele get real (and a little raw) about what self-care actually looks like now—after decades of caring for everyone else.
    We talk about:

    It's time for permission to rest, reflect, and not "be productive"
    Why hobbies that no one profits from are the ultimate act of rebellion
    The quiet joy of reading, doing puzzles, or driving without music
    The grief that comes with losing your old self—and how to honor her
    The power of softening, staying in, and starting over
    Self-soothing, emotional processing, and grown-ass alone time (the good kind)

    Getting older comes with losses—of energy, of identities, of former selves. But it also comes with a soft kind of power we wouldn't trade for anything.

    This one's gentle. Thoughtful. Soulful.
    And just maybe…the permission slip you didn't know you needed.
