  • EP36: 'Am I the A*Hole': Judging Other People’s Drama (So You Don’t Have To)
    Jul 15 2025

    In this episode of The Art of Classiness Podcast, we’re diving headfirst into the wonderfully messy world of the Am I The Asshole subreddit. From secret recordings that blow up weddings, to surprise houseguests who overstep big time, to navigating friendships with former flings, these stories are packed with awkward tension and moral gray areas.

    We’re breaking down who crossed the line, who needs a reality check, and where boundaries and loyalty get hilariously tangled. Plus: is it ever okay to keep a secret from your partner if it’s “for their own good”? Or to prioritize your friend’s comfort over someone’s privacy? We’ve got opinions.

    Listen along as we play judge and jury with plenty of laughs and just a touch of side-eye. And let us know: who do you think was actually in the wrong?

  • EP35: The Classy Commandments: 10 Friendship Rules to Live By
    Jul 8 2025

    In this episode of The Art of Classiness Podcast, we’re laying down our personal, slightly sacred guide to friendship—aka our “Classy Commandments.” From canceling plans without guilt to speaking in chaotic voice memos, protecting each other’s soft spots, and dreaming about our future friend compound, these are the rules that keep our relationships strong, real, and joyfully unhinged.

    We’re sharing what we’ve learned (sometimes the hard way) about midlife friendships—how they evolve, how to keep them close, and why a little bit of cringe is actually the glue.

    Join us for laughs, low-key therapy moments, and some well-earned reminders that showing up (even in leggings) is what true classiness looks like.

    Jun 24 2025

    In this episode of The Art of Classiness Podcast, we explore a relatable topic: the decline of social stamina as we age. What once felt effortless—like 9 PM concert starts or last-minute bar crawls—now requires mental prep, naps, and a solid plan.

From small acts of spontaneity to leaning into the joys of low-pressure plans, we share how to get your friendship mojo back while maintaining your sanity.

    Let’s talk about the balance between personal growth and staying connected, and how you can still keep the fun alive in your friendships after 30.

  • EP30: Reality TV and Emotional Intelligence: Why We Can’t Look Away
    Jun 3 2025

    In this episode, we’re peeling back the layers of reality TV... the shows we love to call “trash,” but can’t stop watching. From Love Is Blind to Vanderpump Rules, we’re exploring why these chaotic storylines hook us, what they reveal about our own friendships, and how they shape the way we navigate loyalty, jealousy, and vulnerability.

    We’ll unpack why these stories feel so real, how they mirror our own group chats, and what it means to watch them with emotional intelligence. Not just as entertainment, but as an unexpected window into human nature.

    Join us as we break down the archetypes we see onscreen and in real life, spot friendship red and green flags, and explore why analyzing the drama is anything but shallow.

    If you’ve ever found yourself cringing at a reunion episode or rooting for the underdog in a group meltdown, this episode is for you. Because sometimes, the messiest shows can be the best teachers.
