S2 Ep50: Why the Holidays Feel Weird This Year (We Didn’t Expect This)

This week on Sheena Interrupted, we’re officially in holiday mode…and realizing the holidays don’t hit the same anymore. The kids are older, the elf has become quite lazy, and for the first time ever… Christmas is quiet. Like stay-home, no-chaos, silent night kind of quiet. TRID and I unpack the unspoken rules of holiday survival, the 72-hour limit on family visits, and what happens when traditions shift because everyone’s grown up (even though, according to him, I haven’t changed since 1995). It's a little emotional, and a whole lot of funny! This week's sponsors Mintmobile.com/Sheena [http://Mintmobile.com/Sheena] Factor.com/Sheena50off [http://Factor.com/Sheena50off] (code 50off)

S2 Ep49:  My Husband Doesn’t Like My Tails…

This week on Sheena Interrupted, we’re unpacking the chaos that unfolded when I walked into a vintage shop… and walked out looking like a head butler from 1883... according to TRID, anyway. We dive into my first real thrifting adventure, the men’s blazer that “smells like the 80s,” and the tuxedo tailcoat that sent him into a full on spiral. There’s a lesson on butlers no one asked for, a debate on whether fashion requires permission, and a blanket-dress situation that absolutely does not get resolved. We talked about Gen Z wearing pajamas straight to school, why used clothes suddenly feel cooler than new ones, and how sustainability turns into an accidental identity crisis when your husband thinks you now work at Downton Abbey.  It’s chaotic, nostalgic, and aggressively relatable in all the best (and worst) ways.

S2 Ep48: Is This REALLY How Men Think?! I Have Questions...

This week on Sheena Interrupted, we attempt the impossible: decoding the male and female brains. TRID explains why the bathroom is his “only safe space,” why “I’ll do it later” apparently means don't ask me about it again, and why he believes women only need one pair of jeans (deeply concerning). I break down why I need 12 outfit changes, why I deep-clean when I’m anxious, and why throw pillows are, frankly, a non-negotiable part of civilization. Unhinged? Absolutely. Chaotic? Always. In other words: just another day in our life. This week's sponsors:  https://www.shantibhavanchildren.org [https://www.shantibhavanchildren.org] Revolve.com/Sheena [http://Revolve.com/Sheena]

S2 Ep47: Thanksgiving Drama | You Asked, We Gave Questionable Advice

This week on Sheena Interrupted, we opened up our unofficial and very chaotic Holiday Hotline and let you run the show. From carb-free cousins and store-bought side dishes to moms hijacking “your” casserole and that dreaded “So… when are you having kids?” question! TRID and I are tackling your real Thanksgiving dilemmas with a mix of sincerity, sarcasm, and way too much honesty. We cover appropriate dinner conversation (aside from politics), how to navigate holidays when you’re married, what to do when guests show up empty-handed but leave with all the leftovers, and whether it’s ever okay to bring your own tupperware and your own meal. Along the way, we detour into TRID’s dream of giving away hair transplants instead of gift baskets. It’s part advice column, part family sitcom, and somehow still a little bit wholesome… in our own chaotic way.

S2 Ep46: I Hate Awards

This week on Sheena Interrupted, we’re celebrating a huge milestone… and unpacking why it made me deeply uncomfortable. We celebrated our YouTube plaque for 100,000 subscribers which sent me spiraling back to childhood awards, second-place trophies, and that feeling of never quite being “the best.” TRID thinks awards are just souvenirs of the journey. I’m over here wondering if they quietly mess with us on a deeper level and the way we see ourselves…  Also in this episode: we discussed into Olympic Medals, Grammys, Streamys, and why some people crave recognition while others want to run from it. If you’ve ever:     •    Felt weird accepting a compliment or an award     •    Worked just as hard as everyone else and still didn’t get “first place”     •    Taken time off for kids or life, and are now trying to come back to work or your dreams…then this episode is for you.  Stay till the end for some terrible award puns from TRID, a live mini performance of The Christmas Song, and a little reminder that you’re not defined by a trophy…or the lack of one.  This week's sponsors: factormeals.com [http://factormeals.com] and use code sheena50off  shantibhavanchildren.org [http://shantibhavanchildren.org] to donate today!
