   Mildly Concerned About Hypocrisy & Deeply Invested in Elizabeth Holmes

   This week, Chappy and Lo are embracing their millennial roots, questioning absolutely everything, and officially introducing a new segment: The Hypocrisy Is Wild. First, they're deeply invested in the return of Girls (THANK YOU LENA!), Julia Stiles giving millennials everything they ever wanted on Dancing with the Stars, and the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show comeback (including Tate McRae's iconic performance). Plus, a little faith in humanity courtesy of Michael Sheen, a new way to give back with Be My Eyes, and a surprisingly serious sardine shortage. Then, it's time for a full-blown obsession with Nathan Fielder's You Can See Everything, Elizabeth Holmes, and the documentary that's left them questioning who's manipulating whom. Spoilers ahead. Finally, the girls get deeply concerned about the state of American politics, the hypocrisy of the current administration, and what's at stake in the upcoming election. From billionaire taxes to ballot measures, they're breaking down the issues, sharing their opinions, and reminding everyone that no candidate is perfect—but your vote still matters. Here's a few voting guides they're using: https://voterguide.dsa-la.org/#ca-insurance-commissioner https://bluevoterguide.org/ https://www.lacdp.org/candidates Come for the millennial nostalgia, stay for the political spiral.

   Mildly Concerned About Returning to Reality, Deeply Invested in Our European Era

   Bonjour, we're back! Lo and Chappy have returned from two weeks in Paris and Amsterdam, and frankly, we're not sure America deserves us anymore. From champagne-fueled Chanel shopping sprees and an emotional Celine Dion concert to an almost-Ashley Olsen sighting at the Ritz and some questionable late-night decisions, Paris gave us everything we wanted (except financial stability). Then came Amsterdam: Michelin-starred meals, aggressive bicyclists, a chaotic Eurostar journey, and a mushroom-fueled museum experience that left us questioning reality... and each other's ability to navigate. We're recapping the highs, the hangovers, the shopping damage, and why a little time away might be exactly what we needed to remember there's more to life than work. Plus, a rant about airplane etiquette and a not-so-gentle return to American politics, including Trump, the upcoming midterms, and why voting matters more than ever. Two countries, three Chanel bags, several existential revelations, and absolutely no regrets. Well, maybe a few.

   Mildly Concerned About Overwhelming Group Chats & Deeply Invested in Being A Dog's Favorite Human

   It's Celine week, baby! Lo and Chappy are heading to Paris to see Celine Dion, but first they have to survive the thing they're both deeply concerned about: overwhelming group chats. They unpack travel planning chaos, why Chappy would rather be tagged than participate, their Amsterdam plans, and Lo's newfound obsession with Notion while creating their content calendar. Then: Jonathan Taylor Thomas is arrested, the Cornell 7 story gets very dark, and the two get into a bigger conversation about accountability, doxxing, cancel culture, and what social media gets right (and very, very wrong). Plus, dogs apparently know who has a pure soul, Chappy's 2026 closet challenge is still going strong, and the Chanel-in-Paris debate gets increasingly financially irresponsible. And, naturally, they save room for a little good news before diving into politics.

   Mildly Concerned About The Future of Momtok & Deeply Invested in Lo's Euro Trip Recap (...and Politics, obvs)

   Lo is back from Austria with stories... from filming Vanderpump Villa in the countryside to an unexpected hospital visit, Salzburg, Vienna, and the point where even schnitzel starts to feel like too much. Then Lo and Chappy get into AI anxiety, social media misinformation, Elon Musk, ICE and immigration, political hypocrisy, Costco economics, and why the internet is making it harder to know what's actually real. Plus: South Park, MapQuest, and whether AI might eventually push us all back toward a more analog life. And because balance is important, there's plenty of pop culture: The Odyssey, Practical Magic 2, Tom Holland and Zendaya, the Emmys, Julia Stiles, Dancing with the Stars, and all things Secret Lives of Mormon Wives — including Whitney Leavitt, Connor Leavitt, Taylor Frankie Paul, and Michaela Peterson. Travel chaos, reality TV, politics, Costco devotion, and a mild existential crisis about the future of the internet. You know, the usual!

   Mildly Concerned About Our Ability To Disassociate and Deeply Invested In Our Bestie Doing On The Ground Muskoka Research

   Chappy's bestie Justin is joining her this week on this episode in Lo's place to discuss all the things! From Sterling Point to the Lindsay Clancy Trial to Who Wants To Piss Off Elon Musk!? Enjoy!

   Mildly Concerned About Long Work Trips & Deeply Invested in Halloween Costumes

   This week, the girls are mildly concerned about AI and deeply invested in the cultural phenomenon that is Let's Marry Harry. They get into the realities of work trips, the joys (and potential horrors) of traveling alone, and whether they could actually survive a solo vacation. Plus: crochet enters the chat, an AI debate gets surprisingly heated, and, naturally, the episode ends with some political rants. Come for the travel stories, stay for the unsolicited opinions and deeply unnecessary crochet discourse.

   Mildly Concerned About Netflix True Crime Docs & Deeply Invested in Millennial Nostalgia

   This week, Chappy and Lo spiral through everything they're currently obsessed with from the recent Netflix true crime documentaries (A Toxic Love Story and the latest on the Idaho murders) to Lo's ongoing battle with Cyclospora. They also unpack why Tom Holland and Zendaya's red carpet and press tour appearances have the internet believing in love again, react to an unexpected Jonathan Taylor Thomas sighting, and dive headfirst into peak millennial nostalgia with the Clueless 2 announcement, the long-awaited Practical Magic 2 movie, and a revisit to the criminally underrated Blast from the Past. As always, the conversation takes a sharp turn before wrapping with a political rant that probably won't solve anything but will almost definitely make you yell "EXACTLY" at your speakers. New episodes every week. Follow, rate, and subscribe for your weekly dose of pop culture, internet discourse, nostalgia, and unfiltered opinions.

   Mildly Concerned About Birthdays & Cyclospora, Deeply Invested in Chanel

   This week, we're mildly concerned about our July birthdays and Cyclospora, but deeply invested in Chanel. Chappy and Lo are celebrating both of their birthdays this week! The girls talk about their volunteering with The Birthday Party Project, the emotional rollarcoaster of being a dog mom and navigating on- and off-leash feelings, and the very current, real fear of accidentally eating something that'll ruin your week. They also decide on this episode in real time that they are going to buy Chanel bags on their upcoming trip to Paris to see Celine Dion. As always, it's equal parts life advice, questionable opinions, and complete chaos.

   Mildly Concerned about Off Campus & Deeply Invested in Taylor and Travis' Wedding

   Welcome to the very first episode of Mildly Concerned, Deeply Invested! Chappy and Lo (and their bff Justin) kick things off by getting real about what it actually takes to start a podcast (spoiler: a lot of overthinking and a group chat of chaos). Then it's straight into the good stuff. They break down why everyone is obsessed with "Off Campus" and whether the hype is deserved, plus their unfiltered thoughts on the latest season of "Love Island UK" and the villa drama we can't stop talking about - justice for Jasmine! From there, things get personal with a segment on boomer parents and the very specific chaos of navigating family dynamics as adults (send help, or at least send wine). And of course, no episode would be complete without discussing the wedding of the century: Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce finally said "I do," and Chappy and Lo have thoughts on everything from the guest list to the copycat dresses! Mildly concerned about the state of reality TV. Deeply invested in Taylor and Travis living their best life.
