Girlie chose violence at 3:30 a.m., so naturally we start there.
This week: Chicago on Broadway, our Project Runway finale thoughts, a book that made Sarah mad for all the wrong reasons, football being officially back, the US Open influencer problem, and a baseball moment that had everyone rallying around one player.
Plus: Andrew Garfield gets stranded in Albuquerque, Olivia reveals how Vivica A. Fox once accidentally made her miss a flight, and we have many thoughts about Alix and Braxton.
New episodes every Tuesday. 💜

You Lost Me At Intimate
We're back in the same room, filming at 9 p.m. and approximately five shots deep. What could go wrong?
This week we're talking fantasy football drafts, US Open influencer etiquette, a major win for women in sports, CT + Phaedra somehow becoming a thing, the latest Alex Cooper drama, the end of Chicken Shop Date, Beyoncé's birthday gift to us, and a Dancing with the Stars cast that may actually have us seated every single week.
Plus: Sarah has new hair and glasses, Olivia has been crashing out all week, and apparently we're learning things live.
Thanks for spending another week on the bench with us. 💜

We Need To Relax
Sarah's recording from New Mexico, Olivia has apparently planned the rest of 2026 in her absence, and somehow August is still not over.
This week we're catching up on family trips, upcoming travel plans, the US Open we keep forgetting happens in our own city, and another less-than-stellar week of reading. Then we're getting into Dancing With the Stars, Connor's controversial new haircut, our continued Heated Rivalry obsession, Love Island reunion looks, unexpected celebrity couples, and one very strong anti-dog opinion we simply cannot support.
Plus, Olivia tells the story of the time she tried to ask Gavin DeGraw to the movies via Twitter.
Thanks for spending another week on the bench with us. 💜
