Chicken Breast Nails, Color Analysis Crises & Trad Wives

Chicken Breast Nails, Color Analysis Crises & Trad Wives

This week on Normal Shit, we spiral over “chicken breast nails,” debate whether color analysis is a scam or life-changing diagnosis, and unpack the emotional ~tRaUmA~ of being told certain colors “don’t work” on us. We also get into shopping addictions, spring cleaning our apartments (and our lives), dog training updates with Fig, love languages, Kindle obsessions, trad-wife thrillers, Housewives drama, and the accidental start of a spicy Norway romance novel. Truly… such normal shit. Normal Shit | a podcast by Olivia Lagaly and Kelsey Barberio

Birkin Bags, Pilates Instructors, Coachella & Other Sh*t We Don't Get

Sometimes you just need a good rant session! And today, we’re letting it all out. In this episode, we’re diving into all the random, frustrating, and downright confusing things we don’t get. From chaotic workout classes that feel like a different language, to the influencer Olympics that is Coachella, to people who walk three-abreast on NYC sidewalks (criminal behavior, honestly). We also get into: * Being called out in a workout class and why it hits way deeper than it should * The insane reality of influencer spending (like… $13K/month on food??) * Birkin culture and luxury “investment” pieces * When “being copied” is actually just… the internet working as usual * Dating etiquette (ghosting, we’re looking at you) * Friendship dynamics that feel a little too one-sided AND because balance is everything, we’re ending on a high note with some genuinely wholesome, uplifting listener updates that restored our faith in humanity 🫶 If you’ve ever thought “wait… why is this a thing?”... this one’s for you.
