Astrology charts, psychic messages, energy healing… oh my. This episode is a full breakdown of our spontaneous weekend at a holistic mind-body-spirit fair — what we tried, what hit deep, what surprised us, and what came through in the energy. We’re talking Vedic astrology, mediumship, emotional breakthroughs, and our very first taste of Sei Mei. Come hang out for the tea, the insights, and the magic.

Update: It’s one month later and Hannah’s acne is clearer than it’s been in a very long time! Thank you Sei Mei!

Hey Besties! Ready to get into things that “go against the grain’? Today, we're discussing unpopular opinions. You know, the ones that get you side-eyes at dinner or silence in group chats. From the mildly controversial to the downright blasphemous, we're unpacking the things some people think but rarely say out loud. Some opinions you might secretly agree with, totally reject, or still be side-eyeing if you hear someone claim one of these in public. Whether you're rethinking your stance or doubling down on your own hot takes...You don’t have to agree — you just have to listen.

Hey besties — this one’s going to make you think.

Artificial intelligence isn’t just writing essays and meal plans anymore — it’s shaping our emotions, our choices, and even our relationships. In this episode, we dive deep into the wild side of AI: from people falling in love with chatbots to tragic real-life stories that show what happens when technology gets too personal.

We’re unpacking it all — AI and intimacy, the brain rot debate, how kids are using it in school (and what that means for their futures), and whether we’re trading emotional intelligence for artificial connection. But it’s not all dark — we’ll also shine a light on the good AI is doing: breaking barriers in accessibility, boosting creativity, and helping people feel a little less alone.

It’s a thought-provoking, emotional, and eye-opening conversation about the fine line between using technology and being used by it.

So grab your favorite drink, settle in, and let’s talk about where humanity ends — and the algorithms begin.
