Episode 29: Us x Veronica’s Roses - Same same, but different

We’re back with one of our absolute faves, Veronica from Veronica’s Roses [https://www.instagram.com/veronicas.roses/?igsh=MTAxYXc3MWhnY2tx#], and things get chaotic in the best way. First up: we introduce her to the deliciously perfect human that is Alan Ritchson, who we’ve officially cast as Carrion Swift (sorry, we don’t take feedback). Then it’s full steam ahead into Quicksilver talk: all our questions, hot takes, and yes, some disagreements. And of course, it wouldn’t be a crossover without a round of Fuck, Marry, Sidepiece, Kill…and this one? We’re all sister wives. P.S. For the months of November and December, all listener contributions will be donated to local food pantries, because giving back is always in season. Donate here! [https://venmo.com/u/spillingwine]

Episode 28: I mean, we already did your job

We’re kicking off this week’s episode by fully endorsing the Louvre heist. We don’t condone crime...unless it’s chic, mysterious, and vaguely cinematic. Then we talk about how Kylie Jenner defended her decision to wear that dress at the Bieber wedding. Girl, why…it was giving Met Gala at a “friend’s” wedding and we DON’T like that! On the flip side, we learned Jenna Bush lived her best First Daughter college life by ditching her secret service for dorm room hookups…and we are obsessed. Also, we’re fully casting directors because your girls have the Quicksilver adaptation figured out…okay, mostly just Carrion Swift, but priorities. On the book front: * Tori started The Huntress by Kate Quinn and she is locked in. * Emily is multitasking her way through Throne of Glass on Kindle and Alchemy of Secrets by Stephanie Garber on Audible. Same vibe, lots of chaos.

Episode 27: I would have bruised her cooch

This week, Tori’s baking era is in full swing, and we are living for it. From the rise of her sourdough starter to the zest of her lemon loaf, she’s keeping us all well-carbed. In pop culture news: * We’re still not okay with Justin Trudeau and Katy Perry’s relationship, let alone them kissing on her yacht. Our official stance? Do better, Justin. * Charli XCX is basically in love with Taylor Swift…it’s actually romantic. * Kevin Federline is dropping a memoir. We’re intrigued, but let’s all agree to take everything he says with a very large grain of salt. * Lauren Conrad and Kristin Cavallari posted a photo together, and we are still screaming about the Laguna Beach reunion we never saw coming. 2000s girlies, rise. On the book front: Tori finally finished Quicksilver…and it delivered. We’re talking spice, plot twists, romantic chaos, and yes, a little bit of divine dick energy. Let’s unpack it all.

Episode 26: Sexy, but ew

This week, we officially enter our next Swiftie era with all our thoughts, feelings, and favorite lyrics from The Life of a Showgirl…and yes, we’ve been listening on repeat. And side note, Tori is now a baker. Then we take a detour into disappointment with two reality TV OGs: * Farrah Abraham for thinking it’s chill to let her 16-year-old get tattoos…we hope it’s a publicity stunt. * Kim Zolciak for removing her daughter’s freckles…permanently. Ma’am…why?! We also circle back to one of our favorite people to hate, Meghan Markle, and her truly tone-deaf move during her Paris trip. We have thoughts. Obviously. Then it’s back to the bookish chaos as Tori gives her latest Quicksilver update, full of theories, questions, and emotional spirals. And Emily is right there with her. Celebrity drama and book-fueled obsession with wine AND Tori’s bread on hand…the perfect mix.

Episode 25: And I felt like her because she felt dumb

This week, we ride the emotional wave of celebrity news starting with the heartbreaking death of Jane Goodall, a true loss. Then came the end of an era with the split of Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, an equally true loss. Tori gave Emily an emotional break with the beautiful pictures from Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s wedding and proved love is still alive. ...Until Sydney Sweeney yanked us back down with news of her dating Scooter Braun, which, frankly, does not feel like a girls’ girl move. On the book front, Emily finished Assassin’s Blade and was emotionally destroyed (no surprise), then immediately chased healing through laughter with Chelsea Handler’s I’ll Have What She’s Having…and yes, it delivered. Finally, we check in on where Tori left off in Quicksilver and let’s just say, the theories, the thirst, the opinions were flowing. Celebrity chaos, literary catharsis, and all the usual spirals.
