Are toddlers an international threat level 10 to our emotional security? Yes. But it turns out there’s more to them than being terrorists. On this episode, we chat with neuroscientist Dr. Nicole Tetrault and psychotherapist Jennifer Cox, to unpack what’s happening in the brains of these tiny tyrants. Also, Tara learns that scissors are, in fact, sharp, Ebar has a near miss with tetanus, and the rage hotline delivers, as always.

Vanity is better left as a spot to do your makeup or perform a mole check. Whether you're over-focusing on how someone looks (especially if it's yourself) or you're over-focusing on how hot and cool your S.O. appears out in public, you're likely spending way too much time on surface sh*t. And that's why in this episode, we look at people living their most fulfilling and authentic lives: reality stars. Whether it's Love Overboard or Laws of Attraction, Tara relays to Ebar the latest rage trigger from a show that Ebar has never and will likely never watch.

Breakups are hard, sometimes weird and awkward, even the amicable ones. And everyone has been unhinged over one. If not, congrats, you're perfectly actualized and we would like your recipe for existence. This episode, we talk rage over being blindsided, not being listened to for the 800th time, or being accused of emotional warfare you had no idea about. Along with getting into our own breakup rage, we also explore the science behind why it literally hurts and review some do's and don'ts.

Miscommunication is basically a personality trait at this point. People say they want honest communication, but do they really? This episode is a full rant on bad communication, wild assumptions, and how people will literally ruin a relationship instead of asking one clear question.

How do we make romantic relationships work? Does it matter if they snore? (Yes). Does it matter if your cat hates them? (Also, yes.) We get into the nuance of committed relationships and what works for us and what doesn't, what we can live with and what we can't and how Tara might marry you, but she will never, under any circumstance, live with you.

We take a break from politics and dive headfirst into pop culture chaos. From Britney’s DUI to Tyra Banks and America’s Next Top Model, to the ultimate rage debate: what’s worse? A fully vegan wedding (no substitutions) or one with no alcohol? (You already know where we land.)

Caregiving is holy work. In America? It’s also a fast track to exhaustion, debt, and invisibility. Dr. Erin Kent (UNC-Chapel Hill) breaks down the policy failures that leave families drowning, why we are all “caregivers-in-waiting,” and why it’s time to stop calling caregivers heroes and start cutting them actual checks. Also, we give a status check on 6-7 and how to avoid being an Unc.
