Snooki OPENS UP about hysterectomy recovery + Joey & Snooki remember their friend Hayden Panettiere

Almost three weeks out from major surgery, Snooki joins us post-op to give the full inside scoop on having a hysterectomy and the reality behind recovery. Snooki has learned through her “hyster-sister” community that major surgery requires major downtime, what was initially understood as a two-week healing period is actually two months. Bestie breaks down the truth from having her organs rearranged to never having her period again. Meanwhile, Joey gives us a life update from Piki’s second birthday to his new favorite drink of the summer. While Joey has been sipping wine, Snooki is officially completing her first dry month. What better reward is there post-surgery recovery than a dry martini? As ‘Jersey Shore: Family Vacation’ is coming to its close, Snooki talks ending speculation and TikTok easter eggs. It’s been 15 years of growing up on the Shore, are we really ready to say goodbye to what started it all? Speaking of TV, Snooki and Joey catch us up on their latest binges from Hulu’s ‘The Shards’ to Emmy Rossum’s new ‘Furious.’ Did we forget to mention that Joey is premiering on Hulu? We’re leveling up! And in the world of celebrity, all of us experienced a great loss in Hayden Panettiere, the woman we all grew up with and who stood up for all women as she herself experienced postpartum depression, trauma, and grief. A hero on and off the screen, Snooki and Joey remember their dear friend and all her kindnesses. We love you Hayden, rest in peace our Ice Princess and Queen.

Snooki & Joey SPILL on 2000s tanning & drinking culture + ULTIMATE guide to being a Guidette

Mawmas, while Snooki is in recovery mode from major surgery, our besties have left us another gift. A guide to the 2000s, with an all-inclusive flash back leaving us yearning for a time long ago (not that long though, we’re not that old). First, our besties are protesting the long, overheated summer. It’s time for the holidays! Speaking of sweaty summers, the two talk hygiene routines: it’s morning vs. evening showers. Then we’re on a wild ride to the past. Long before soul cycle, we had tanning salons for community, where befriending the receptionist was the key to your social life. It’s a mystery how we didn’t damage our skin and yet we’re claimed to be the youngest looking generation. After baking all day in the artificial sun and spa, we hit the parking lots, chain smoking and cranking CDs, pregaming on cheap jet fuel by the names of Cisco and Four Loko to get our nights going and save a few dollars. We were broke back in the day, and this was before $30 cocktails. The best part? The after party…at your local Mickey D’s…Taco Bell, Burger King, and White Castle. Why choose? And no 2000s tour is complete without a book club read from our favorite adopted Chilean author…Snooki Polizzi’s Confessions of a Guidette. The ULTIMATE guide to Y2K fashion era including tacky jewelry, four inch heels (minimum), and what it means to be a Meatball.
