Mehr Binging With Benefits

Binging With Benefits is your new favorite girlhood ritual in podcast form. Hosted by sisters Becca and Jessica, each episode is a nostalgic throwback to ‘90s sleepovers—think movies, giggles, and way too many snacks. Here's the twist: one sister watches a movie the other hasn't seen, then hilariously breaks it down play-by-play, spoilers and all.But the real cherry on top? At the end of every episode, the sister who didn’t watch the movie shares a “benefit”—a little life upgrade that’s been making things better lately. It could be a new product, a mindset shift, or just a random thing they’re obsessed with.It’s binging with a bonus. Come for the recaps, stay for the sisterhood.

Episode Boom! This Is Science, Baby! Cover

Boom! This Is Science, Baby!

In this episode of Binging With Benefits, we start off in the stars—literally—talking about the Artemis mission and the surprisingly emotional story behind a section of the moon being named “Carroll” in honor of a late wife. It’s giving romance, legacy, and space trivia you didn’t know you needed. Then we spiral (naturally) into the absolutely unhinged movie Robots, starring Shailene Woodley and Jack Whitehall. Is it a rom-com? A sci-fi fever dream? A cautionary tale? We’re still not sure—but we are sure we have thoughts. To wrap things up, Jess brings a “benefit” that’s all about slowing things down: morning journaling as a way to tap into dopamine fasting. Think less chaos, more clarity… at least until we start talking again. It’s heartfelt, chaotic, and a little bit cosmic—just how we like it.

Episode Seagulls Will Rob You Blind Cover

Seagulls Will Rob You Blind

This week on Binging with Benefits, we kick things off with a very important seasonal discussion: beach days are back… but so are the seagulls, and frankly, they cannot be trusted. We’re talking snack theft, aerial attacks, and why no one prepares you for this level of coastal chaos. Then, things take a turn as Jess tells Becca about the Hatchet Wielding Hitchhiker documentary on Netflix — a wild, unsettling story that had the internet crowning the wrong person a hero. We get into how viral moments can completely distort reality, the dangers of glorifying people without knowing the full story, and the role media and entertainment play in giving platforms to the wrong voices. To balance out the chaos, this week’s Benefit is all about adding a little joy to your everyday life. Becca shares her surprisingly delightful hack: assigning emojis to your phone contacts. It’s practical, it’s personal, and it’s a tiny way to romanticize your life… one text notification at a time. Beach paranoia, internet deep dives, and a sprinkle of whimsy — just another week with your favorite sisters 💅
