  • HOTLINE CALLER #8 - Evil Stepmother
    May 15 2026
    It's another hotline caller ep but we couldn't resist doing a *tiny* wedding recap before cutting to the episode! Jeri is officially a PARSONS (insert airhorn sounds here)! The day was perfect and beautiful and we wish JD and Barry the happiest life imaginable. For a detailed recap listen to Ladies & Tangents next episode! Our caller/emailer, Sara asks us a loaded question: How can she tell her dad that her stepmother is ruining their relationship (and his life), in a way he will understand? Rach and Jeri talk boundaries, try to psychoanalyze a man they've never met, and Rach may or may not have projected a tiny bit. Bottom line, you should never have to explain to a parent that you are worthy of their time, respect, and loyalty.

  • The Great Dissection - The Great Divide Album Review
    May 8 2026
    Welcome welcome welcome! Jeri's getting married tommorow (eek!), Rach talks more about her mental health and podcasting before we get into the meat this week. On this episode Rach and Jeri get Swifty with it in honor of Noah Kahan's newest album, The Great Divide. The girls take turns analyzing the lyrics, meaning, and comparing the songs to their own lives for the whole 17 track album. (If you want the extended album edition, head to Patreon!) Long story short : Give it a listen - ideally with noise canceling headphones. Want even MORE Better & Worse content?

  • Bless This Mess - Rach's Mental Health Check-in
    May 1 2026
    Once again we bring to you an absolute brain dump of an episode that was supposed to be something else but turned into Jeri ripping Rachel a new one (respectfully). Are Catholics basically pagans? Will Rach ever actually talk about being in a cult? Are vets secretly scammers? Hear our hot takes and so much more before we do a deep dive into the dumpster fire that is Rach's brain these days. Jeri digs into the issues with Rach's inner dialogue, provides perspective on her neurodivergence, and tries to get her to see that she isn't lazy, she's just deeply burnt out. (Rach still isn't sure and is leaning toward being an idiot POS) Want even MORE Better & Worse content?

  • HOTLINE CALLER #7 - Relationships After Divorce
    Apr 24 2026
    Well well well, look who finally showed up... THE SD CARD HAS BEEN LOCATED! We hope you enjoy this episode which was recorded back at the end of January with our girl Jess. In this hotline caller episode, we get a call from one of our listeners which hits close to home for Rach and Jeri - How do you navigate a serious relationship after divorce (especially when you feel like a mess and are triggered all the time)? This eppy is full of some huge belly laughs, a medium reading from Jeri, and a deep dive into our history with our partners and how we navigated mourning our marriages while falling in love again. Was it messy? You bet. Was it worth it? Without a singular doubt.

  • HOTLINE CALLER #6 - Career Crisis
    Apr 10 2026
    No, your eyes do not deceive you... this really is a 35 minute episode! Rach and Jeri accidentally intro-tangented too close to the sun and made a whole additional episode for the Patreon crew (so head there if you want to listen to an hour of Rach feeling incompetent, and a deep discussion of the stars and astrological parenting). But for this episode, we focus on our caller Hannah and her current dilemma on whether or not to become a full time nanny for an ex-coworker. Rach and Jeri try to dissect this from all angles, but current professional nanny's - weigh in! Does this sound like a red flag or a good opportunity?

  • HOTLINE CALLER #5 - Identity Crisis
    Mar 27 2026
    The girls talk spray tan etiquette and mishaps, Jeri gets to the bottom of the past lives of goldendoodles, and Rach is freaking out before their first Patreon live. Our hotline caller this week asks us a very important question: how do you navigate finding out who you are aside from the titles given to you? Sister, Mom, Wife, Friend - underneath all of that, who are you? Rach and Jeri give their two cents and strategies for honoring who they are amidst motherhood and the chaos of life.
