Episode 140: Dolly, Reba & Taylor walk into a podcast… 🎙️ We’re alive, Daniel’s cemetery sightseeing (don’t ask), Max’s southern fire is from Richmond, and the Besties review Taylor’s new album. #podcast #taylorswift #dollyparton

The “song of the summer” didn’t show up — and maybe that says more about us than the charts.

“When your government ghosted you but Dolly never does.” 👻🎙️

The government may be shut down, but the mics are still hot.
Daniel’s wandering cemeteries, I’m channeling Dolly & Reba, and somehow it all makes sense.

At a friends & family tasting and discovered a food hierarchy where small equals expensive and I am deeply humbled.

If anyone needs me I’ll be Googling ‘how to eat foam elegantly.’ #FineDining #TasteTest #FriendsAndFamily

#DianeKeaton was the Patron Saint of the Bitches With Beards #podcast, even our studio was named after her. We were constantly inspired by her #CoastalGrandma lifestyle and amazing talent. Today’s batch of Apple Cinnamon Sour Dough Muffins was in her honor!

BBC Radio blocked in the U.S.

No Archers, no Shipping Forecast — just early-2000s pop rock and a sense of cultural doom.

A Brit abroad, left adrift. Send Marmite.

No Taylor Swift talk — we recorded too early. Daniel’s got time to spare, Max got emotional at a Renn Fair, and his parents try to make sense of America — starting with “Who’s Bad Bunny?” 🎧 #podcast #BadBunny #popculture #RenaissanceFaire

Dwayne Bug’s tail hasn’t stopped wagging since sunrise.
The jersey’s on, snacks are ready, and the bark count is rising. 🐶

The Besties are the Witches of Oz now. 🧙‍♀️
The Tin Woodsman wants in.
Should we let him into the social bubble… or crush his invite with a well-aimed house? 🏠✨
Wicked choices, darling.

We returned from cancellation like Madonna returning to the dance floor 💃. Daniel’s cookie-based survival plan is failing, Max turned his office into Star Wars Disneyland, and Oz witches are holding a council meeting to evict Tin Woodsman. 🏠✨ #podcast #comedy

Latest Downton Shabby: one of us never met Dr. Chase Meridian. Daniel dines with an ex, pats himself on the back for singlehood via dog-sitting. Max returns from Jersey City with a crab story you’ll regret hearing. Then we cry, toast, and bid adieu to Downton. #podcast

Quick career audit: Rule of Three — pick 3 focus goals, track weekly, share results. Hit 2/3 = you’re leveling up. Hit 3/3 = send champagne (or a polite PR email). What’s your 3 for this week? #CareerAdvice #MondayMotivation

You say 'Let's go out.' You vanish. You are the chosen one — aka Chief Planner. This is not a democracy. This is logistics. Who's bringing emergency snacks? #NightOut
