Wait, Sidebar is the podcast version of your group chat: chaotic, comforting, honest. Two San Francisco women who almost have it together turn drop-offs, quick voicemails, dog walks, and other passing moments into weekly unscripted conversations.
BB is the planner in her notes app; DeeDee leads with vibes. They riff like sisters with boundaries—on friendships, frazzled mothers, marriage, sex, neighborhood drama, trends, and the rituals that keep us sane.
Therapy-adjacent, with worse advice. New episodes weekly.
This week, we tackle the Olympic-level logistics of Bay Area summer camp planning, we daydream our perfect camp experience - a blissed-out Girl Scout escape in Montana- before realizing the true winners in all this are our own kids.
We want their lives—stick around for our unhinged Fact-or-Rumor game, where we lose our marbles and coin “Camp Cannon,” Nick Cannon’s hypothetical camp for his 26-and-counting kids.

Swap Meet Chic
We’re taking a laugh-filled stroll down the mall of our adolescence—Hard Tail flares, Rocket Dogs, T-floss underwear, and run-ins with nuns that still haunt homeroom. Zero shame, maximum nostalgia. Consider this your sign to try a SKIMS merkin, hit the swap meet for beaded house shoes and “designer-ish” bags, and remember why fashion was (and is) so fun.

Too Many Hats, Not Enough Heads
We got a little serious and reflective this episode. We talk about the many hats we stack on our heads — the ones we put on ourselves, the ones no one else will take off for us, and the hats we've carried since adolescence. Yes, women are expert multitaskers, and yes, we teeter on the edge sometimes — but we actually like these hats. We just want someone to wear them for a minute (and then give them right back). Off with the heads!

Midlife Health Survival Guide
We dive into the “vitamin vortex” (why gummy trends and supplements feel endless), why sleeping has become a hobby—or a competitive sport—and our takes on the viral “The Squirt Movie” moment. We debate Stanley cups designed for women, swear by SmartyPants chew/gummy vitamins, and discuss how wearable tech like Oura Rings and Apple Watches can help—or add stress. We wrap up in the only way possible, diving into perimenopause and menopause: signs and how confusing it all still is. Wish us luck!

Be Careful What You Wish For
Dee Dee turns 40 and returns from her Hawaiian getaway insisting the “free” resort extras were, in fact, free—until real life sends the bill, complete with a kid’s chipped tooth. In true birthday-girl fashion, she’s laughing through it, sharing what she’s welcoming and letting go in the decade ahead.
Meanwhile, BB confesses she may have manifested a tick in her kid’s ear (oops), and the gals dive into travel highs/lows, one-trick-pony lip routines, and why “be careful what you wish for” keeps proving itself. Cheers!

Limited Tickets to Heaven
BB and Dee hit record with zero gear and maximum chaos. From the wild moment a skipper says “don’t jump in after your kid” to a quick detour offshore, we spin into the greatest conspiracies of all time—what you believe, what you don’t, and what you can actually control. We unpack the 144,000 “tickets to heaven,” the so‑called tick‑breeding theory, and share non‑expert pro tips we picked up while learning about nuclear war, bunkers, and wildfire survival. We hope you life because well YOLO.

The Death Binder
A short, off-the-rails lunch chat. We unpack single ladies “date” requests to fix her brakes, our dying wishes, cemetery tree forests, and the oddly satisfying wet dream of a perfectly organized death binder. Short, sweet, a little spicy.

Autopay or Birkin Bag
Think success is a mansion or birkin bag? Think smaller — like autopay kicking in while you sip coffee and your brain stops hijacking your sentences. In this episode we unpack the odd little metrics that actually make life feel successful.
We riff on childhood comparisons — the kid who owned a whole hill and our tiny paperbacks of envy — why our minds derail mid-sentence, and how to trade the scoreboard of “more” for the radical success of genuinely being happy for others. Wild idea, right?

Nah, that gives me the ICK.
Buckle up for a cheeky, short-and-sweet episode where we pin the icks on everyone else—mostly our husbands, occasionally the kids. If “moist” makes you twitch, then “nah” is BB’s kryptonite — cringe in glorious stereo. Sorry, not sorry. We serve a top-notch, highly unqualified recap of “the Coachella” (two middle-aged women, YouTube, zero credibility, maximum shade). Lots of giggles, as it should be.

We Made Them — Only We Can Say We're In Hell
Raw, funny, and unfiltered—this episode digs into the paradox of gentle parenting, lactation ball mishaps, and why only parents can say they’re in hell.

We Missed the Apps but Still Sipping the Tea
In this episode we dive into elite Dungeons & Dragons die-hards, dating-app chaos, first-date trainwrecks that somehow turn to love, debate crying-while-sex moments, and settle the tank-top question. Honest, messy, and unfiltered — we unpack what swipe culture teaches (and wrecks) while arguing that even with DMs and algorithms, the charm of meeting people the old-fashioned way — face-to-face, awkwardness and all — is worth saving.

Chafing Dishes & Walking Pads
Dee Dee hasn’t set foot in an office in over a decade, but she’s fascinated by the modern workplace - the biz nasty as she calls it.
In this episode BB unpacks the rituals and unwritten rules shaping today’s worklife — from spa water, walking pads, standing desks, and the endless services provided.
For every time we say "chafing," another new hire logs on in pajamas.

The Trust Hole [Updated]
Tumble down the rabbit hole of trust with us. We unpack the small and strange ways we rely on another: letting strangers sculpt your face, refusing to let your husband pack your suitcase, trusting a yellow cab with your last destination and the mind‑fuck of elite circles where trust becomes a currency and the price is devastating. Expect unfiltered conversations that swing from laugh‑out‑loud to oddly philosophical, and unapologetically weird.

Forever Cringe
In the surprisingly long episode, we dive into the radical idea that being cringe is actually freeing - liberating, even.
Dee Dee admits to having always been cringe, while BB accepts that being cringe forever is simply the path forward.
We talk about how identifies shift at different milestones in life and no matter what to hold on to yourself.
Please focus on the content, not the sound quality - we're clearly still figuring out audio. Do you go to school for that?
Cringe lives here. You're Welcome.

Dolphins Swim with Dolphins
We really sink into the awkwardness: From group-chat chaos to building real-life community, random dolphin tangents, and everything in between. Expect uncomfortable laughs, honest conversation, and zero polish — but stick with us; we promise we’ll get better.
