Like many before me and many more after, my relationship with running was born out of hate.

You couldn't PAY me to run.

But here I am PAYING to run my first marathon...

This is the enemies to lovers origin story between me and running.

This time, Sophie is giving you a crash course into the delusional and down-right awful world that is looksmaxxing- a manosphere subculture that is on the rise.

Maybe you've seen some of these Chads on social media or you just watched Louise Theroux's latest Netflix documentary. Maybe you've never even head of things like mogging, mewing, and the manosphere. Well, either protect your peace or jump into the deep end with Sophie because this is a doozy. And this episode only scratches the surface!

2 girls are back but with a twist!

Special guest M'Kayla joins the podcast for a very special Oscars Sunday episode.

So, based on synopsis alone, the girls make their predictions for who will win the night's biggest awards!

As Rosie takes some well-deserved time for herself, Sophie takes a deep dive into what's on her mind (or at least one topic... there is A LOT going on in there).

This series called Below the Fold will hopefully bring timely stories that aren't getting front page treatment but are still fascinating and deserve a little discussion.

For the first episode, we are looking into this growing trend of Americans migrating to foreign countries. We are leaving in record rates but why? What is causing this and what does it mean for the future of America and the world?

We'll get into it so hit play and share with any one who might be considering leaving the U.S.

Follow these girls of Instagram, TikTok and where ever you listen to good stuff and let us know your thoughts in the comments :)

Be happy, be healthy, be well <3

Since a historic blizzard kept the girls from yapping this week, here is a little something from Sophie's podcasting lore...

Sophie: I've had a SERIES of podcasts throughout my life. One of my favorite segments was when my friend Shireen and I met once a month to dissect a movie.

In honor of Oscar season, here is an old episode we did about the 2024 Academy Award Best Picture winner, 'Oppenheimer'.

It's still just 2 girls, but with a special guest host :)

It's murder on the dance floor...

Welcome to the first episode of the Movie of the Month series where we take a deep dive into film. An old friend of mine joins me on the episode to roast and respect these cinematic masterpieces and/or flops. And what better way to launch the subseries than with the film on everybody's lips: Emerald Fennel's thriller, Saltburn.

WHAT A FILM.

Let's just say... we have thoughts.

What movie should we cover next? Let me know in a review, DM, or email!
