Not Us Learning About Swingers 👀

You're on Thin Ice Bestie

This week, we’re putting our friendships under a microscope. We get into loyalty, what it actually means to show up, how we keep our own friendship so solid, how we work through conflict and the boundaries that protect it. We also talk about the friendships that didn’t make it, the ones that fizzled, the ones that exploded, and the ones that taught us everything we know now. Because sometimes you outgrow people, sometimes they bench themselves, and sometimes…they put themselves on thin ice. If you’ve ever wondered, “Am I being a good friend?” or “Why does this friendship feel like a group project I’m doing alone?” this episode is for you! It’s honest, it’s funny, it’s a little unhinged, and it might inspire you to run your own friendship audit.

Not Us Learning About Swingers 👀

In this episode, we explore the world of consensual non‑monogamy through the lens of relationship dynamics, communication, and trust. We break down common misconceptions, discuss how different couples navigate boundaries, and look at the social and cultural factors that shape these relationship structures. Whether you’re curious, learning, or simply expanding your understanding of how people build connection, this conversation offers thoughtful insight

Back on Our Bullshit

It’s Lacey’s birthday, and the second we hit record it turned into full FaceTime energy. We got distracted immediately, and the episode spiraled into roasts, random tangents, questionable stories, and the kind of laughing‑so‑hard‑we-can’t-breathe moments that derail everything. It’s messy, it’s chaotic, it’s giving “best friends on a call forgetting the world exists.” It's raw, it's real and it is completely us!

Hard Things, Soft Voices

We sit down for one of the most honest conversations we’ve had on the show. We break down the realities of physical and sexual assault, how it shows up, how it’s minimized, and how it impacts survivors long after the moment has passed. We talk about the systems that fail people, the language we use without thinking, and the ways communities can actually show up with care instead of judgment. Lacey also shares a personal story from her own life, offering a vulnerable look at what survival, reflection, and reclaiming your voice can look like. This episode is about truth, safety, and giving space to experiences that are too often pushed aside. If you or someone you love has lived through something similar, we hope this conversation reminds you that you’re not alone, your story matters, and healing doesn’t have to look one specific way.

Hot by Whose Standards?

We dive headfirst into the messy, ever‑shifting world of beauty standards, who creates them, who benefits from them, and why we’re all still pretending they make any sense. From childhood insecurities to social‑media filters to the unspoken rules we’ve all absorbed without noticing, we’re unpacking the pressure, the performance, and the politics of “pretty.”
