Episode Twenty Four: The Brunch After an all-you-can-drink outing with the Good Grief Girls (and Gary), our gossip returns slightly worse for wear—but no less opinionated. From mimosas to mixed-up names, spiritual resentment to dating app disasters, she’s tipsy, tangled, and unfiltered. There’s love, loss, and a woman in a toilet skirt mishap. And beneath it all, a quiet confession: life without Keith isn’t just different—it’s disorienting.

Tune in for:

• Bottomless brunch with bottomless grief, glitter, and gin

• A karaoke moment, a wardrobe malfunction, and a lot of confusion over Glenys

• The real cost of widowhood—and the dating disasters that follow
