It appears Deb is at it again, making anyone who mentions the pod swear up and down not to listen. This week, listen along as Lauren regales us with the tale of one poor dental hygienist who was forced to make an oath to Deb that she would never subscribe.

Finally, we chat a controversial question: should you share phone passwords with your partner? Buckle in. Also, apologies for the bodily noises.

This week we are diving into all things dating and romance, prompted by the great love of our time shared between (of course) Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly. We chat all our thoughts on the engagement ring and drinking each other's blood before turning to decidedly less deviant (but equally sordid) topic: our own dating and romantic histories. We extoll the brief bit of wisdom we have and chat when to sleep with someone, ghosting, big red flags to watch out for, and misconceptions about secular courtship.

OUR MOST TREASURED BEAUTY SECRETS which we shall only divulge to our Pop Apologists listeners and our granddaughters someday. We get into IT ALL.

This week we get into a passionate conversation about the musical genius and queen of cringe herself, Ms. Taylor Swift. We discuss Taylor’s inability to evolve in her taste level beyond the 9th grade and question her aesthetic choices in all things Red (Taylor’s Version). Chanler shares her emotional journey watching the short film and I hold nothing back as I question the last three minutes of what was otherwise perfectly enjoyable 2014 Tumblr porn. Finally, I share a recent experience being rightfully humiliated by Sharon from customer service at Delta Airlines.

This week Chanler and I chat about the abysmal snack options on American Airlines and the casual cruelty of asking passengers if they even want the complimentary snacks on board. We then get into the festival from hell, aka Astroworld, and discuss Travis Scott's history of encouraging chaos and violence at his shows. Finally, we consider the Kardashian culpability in all of this. Is America's royal family simply tone deaf and thoughtless, or maniacal witches fit for the stake?

You asked, we answered! This week, Chanler and I answer all your questions including what do we do for a living and what items we splurge on vs save on. We take a swing at heavy hitters like "Are fancy coffee machines worth it or should I stick with my drive through Starbucks?" and "What was it like being named Chanler growing up?"

This week Chanler and I bemoan our shared agony over starting a retinol regimen, as we are both undergoing the infamous retinol burn. We then dive into the Kravis engagement; that's right, our favorite punk rock couple, Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian, are betrothed! 🌹☠️💎 After celebrating this happy news and dissecting Kourtney's relationship history, we turn to darker subject matter: the breakdown of Lala Kent and Randall Emmett. We walk our listeners through their relationship timeline, revisit the homewrecking behavior that began their relationship, and discuss our thoughts on whether this separation will last. Finally, we get into the recent nuptials of Meghan King Edmonds to Cuffe Owens, nephew to President Biden (who attended the ceremony!) and also dish on the reaction from Meghan's ex husband and possibly the devil incarnate, Jim Edmonds, and his likewise malevolent fiancé, Kortnie O'Connor, as published in the Daily Mail.

This week Chan and I get into a little postmortem about last week's controversial episode. We chat poor financial habits and the reasons why we blame our parents for our ineptitudes and grown adults.

We are back with a full run down of Lauren's trip to Greece, from Mykonos to Paros, Antiparos, Milos, and finally Santorini. Lauren gives her most prescient travel tips for each location. Which was a hit and which you could skip, and what to budget for when hitting land of yachts and feta. Chanler regales us with a truly harrowing trip to the airport, getting her apartment in NYC, and recent quirky moments staying at Deb's. It's a classic catch up between sisters finished out with some top line commentary on Scott Disick's DM to Younes and his inevitable break up with Amelia. Buckle in!

Our new episode this week will come out on Thursday due to severe scheduling conflicts and transatlantic crossings, so enjoy part 2 of Chan's T-Swift deep dive with Joe Peacock, Lauren's new sworn enemy.
