Cold and flu season is back in full force, and sadly, Nat’s already fallen victim to it. To commiserate, we discuss our go-to sick foods, shared hatred for liquid medicine, and Nat’s love for Pepto. We also ponder Toni’s mysterious illness that causes her to feel sick when she wakes up early. This episode is totally sick (unfortunately not in a good way).

This episode begins with an update on Nat's eye surgery recovery and a story time about her jarring experience of having the procedure filmed and posted on social media. Next, Nat comes clean about her addiction to eyebrow plucking, and Toni shares her own hairy history with her brows. To end the episode, we discuss some reasons we're not real adults yet. One thing's for sure- growing up is hard, but growing new eyebrows is harder.

In this episode, Natalie recaps her eye surgery experience and shares how recovery’s going. We also ponder Barbie botox and discuss how plastic surgery is perceived in Korea vs. in the US. Then, we complete a candy tier list as a belated nod to Halloween. If we learned anything from this episode, it’s that life is sweet but being pretty is painful.

This week's drama-filled episode includes a recap of the tense fight Nat overheard while camping and our thoughts on a crazy bride's Facebook rant. We also chat about Toni's appreciation for Jeju, the instability of freelancing, and McDonald's workers. Strap in- this episode is truly all over the place.

Episode 5 Show notes

Do you feel like you were prettier three years ago? You're not alone. We discuss our fleeting youth and newfound wrinkles, but not without some uplifting affirmations from Nat. Toni then shares a few things that have been irking her lately, and we also do a deep dive into the powerful lyrics of Olivia Rodrigo’s hit song “get him back!”

If you're looking for book recommendations, you've come to the right place. Nat discusses her recent reads and even gives Toni a pop quiz about the world (spoiler alert- she fails). We also discuss an all-female residence for the elderly in London (aka the Feminist Utopia) that we're both hoping to sign up for in the future. To wrap things up, Toni shares some of the most unique baby names in the US which leads us to wonder if freedom of speech has gone too far.

Reddit snark, family vloggers using their children to make money, and screen time for kids- this episode dives into some hot topics plaguing today's society. The takeaway- we could all afford to go outside and touch grass a bit more.

In this episode, Toni discusses the numerous things keeping her up at night, and Natalie serves as the resident physician while interpreting Toni’s dreams and unofficially diagnosing her with arthritis. Lots of laughs are shared when we discuss the things from our past that we’ll never forget. To wrap things up, we express our polarizing views on silent retreats. If you need a pick-me-up, this episode might just be it.
