Anxiety Nachos

Anxiety Nachos

Its our first Turdisode! (aka minisode) but actually not mini at all because we don't know how to shut up.  This week we’re skipping the meditation apps and diving into the real ways we soothe our anxious little ADHD brains. Its time for anxiety coping mechanisms Jess & Steph style. Forget meditation (it’s never meditation). Instead we prescribe belting out Celine Dion like we’re headlining Vegas, hosting private car concerts, melting questionable amounts of cheese on chips, exchanging gossip so spicy it should come with a Scoville rating, and sometimes just weaponizing friendship by being a little mean for one glorious second. Is it healthy? Debatable. Is it effective? Absolutely. Is it unhinged? You already know.

Unhinged.

What starts as a discussion about ADHD hacks quickly devolves into chaos, invention, and the unsettling realization that one of us should host a cooking show (??). We pitch unmarketable products, forget what we’re doing in real-time, and somehow still manage to offer “advice.” Is any of it useful? That’s between you and your executive function.

Listen. Comprehend. Use. Solve.

This week we discuss ADHD’s greatest enemies: instructions, directions, and the act of leaving a room. Forgetting things? Constantly. Star Anise? Never in the house when you need it (which is always). We also spiral into how technology has fried our brains, why cut-off jean shorts are an emotional experience, and try to define “bugaboo” with zero success. Were we supposed to stay on topic? Lol, no.

Finger your Focaccia

Look, we wish this episode had a clear theme... but it doesn’t. And honestly? That’s kind of our thing. Things begin with some light perimenopause chat—because why not start off sweaty and irritable? Then we veer wildly into the thrilling world of… cities versus townships. Naturally, this leads to my recurring existential dread about phone calls—because nothing says “fun podcast content” like social anxiety in ringtone form. And for our finale we spiral into a mess of failed hobbies, imaginary hobbies, and the delusions that keep us going. Is there a structure? No. Is it entertaining? Debatable. Will you regret listening? Probably not—but I’m not offering refunds if you do.

Welcome Back!

We're Baaaaaack!  After just a tiny 7–8 month detour (classic ADHD move), your two favorite elder millennial whirlwind weirdos have returned! Catch up with us as we share life updates, celebrate some hilariously relatable ADHD moments, and tackle the all-important question: how do you be fun again?  Spoiler: reading instructions is still hard, but hanging with your bestie? Effortless.  We missed you—let’s do this thing. 💥
