Episode 64 - Everybody and Their Cousin Wants to Connect Al(icia Carmody) and Al (Zdenek)
Cousins, Molly is RATTLED at the start of this week’s episode after a sighting of the ghost of Jill’s landline past. This leads us into a discussion of the child-coded urge to hang up on strangers and when it’s okay (and/or necessary) to discipline other people’s children.
Next, Jill has a big update about her quest to become a single mother (to a puppy) and spreads the gospel about her new TV obsession, Rivals.
Luckily for all of us cousins, Natalie has sent in a truly life-changing email with commentary and behind-the-scenes tea about the Real Housewives of Rhode Island, which leads Jill and Molly to discuss how to tell when something is financial abuse versus when you are just bad at budgeting. Chat, is it really bad for your spouse to use your money to pay your bills?
Then, Jill and Molly question whether Seth Myers is in fact happily married, and mourn Amy Poehler’s historically poor taste in men (see: Will Arnett).
Of course, we then have to get into a JJL update, complete with some f*cking egregious messages Jill sort of asked for, and the surprising re-appearance and completely unsurprising re-disappearance of S.
We have the chance to give a brief update on more Katy Perry controversy, mourn a hurdle in Molly’s skin care journey, and debate the relative merits of an Oura ring before Molly’s phone decides it’s time for us to wrap it up.
As always, please email us at mailto:eatcpod@gmail.com (Natalie, you’re our favourite listener this week!), rate us 5 stars, and tell your friends. Keep it cute cousins!
