Real friends. Real funny. We swear. Like, a lot. Join us for unscripted, uncensored, and definitely unsuitable-for-work comedy conversation about relationships, marriage, friendship, sex, hope, parenting and prospering at midlife. It's like grabbing a weekly cocktail with your favorite girlfriends for a candid look at life that lifts you up as it pulls you in. From religion to porn to money, fears, our bodies, our brains, secrets, failures, food, family and finding your path, almost nothing is off-limits (except politics — gross). Longtime friends Melissa Brilliant and Amy Fugazi overshare about everything with the love and trust that only comes from a lifetime of being there for each other. So cut through the fake friends who try to glamourize all the BS masquerading as midlife. We're the bawdy, brutally honest best friends you never knew you had. And we always pick up the check. Love us? Tell your friends. Hate us? Tell your therapist.

Oh my goodness we come right out of the gate swinging this week, Dear Listener, with tales of sex tapes (real and homemade). We quickly pivot to shockingly descriptive talky-talk about sexuals of every age, but don't fre
We're exploring the dissapointments of the Golden Generation, Dear Listener, and boy do we have a Top 10 list for you. Spoiler Alert: they fail, spectacularly. Missy makes it through another Niece-based milestone. And Am
He just plays one on TV. This week, we cover even more made-up sex quirks (you be the judge!), the joys of internet vigilanteism, and birth order: the relationship edition. So much nonsense to laugh at. So few brain cell

LISTENER FEEDBACK ALERT! LISTENER FEEDBACK ALERT! We can hardly believe it but we received an actual letter from an advice-seeking human. (And our advice is cracker jack.) Kneading a little Mother's Day inspiration? Take
So we visited a sex hotel this week, Dear Listener, and Missy's not sure how to feel about it. Mainly because Amy both experienced Mean Weed and Frenched up on everyone with her secret linguistic prowess. There were sexy
Oh my gUUDness, Dear Listener, if you only knew. This week, we cover all the things "for which Missy is grateful," including the blessings of a good vibe, excellent planning skills and a deliciously robust birthing canal
Oh my terrible goodness, Dear Listener, the ladies are back at it again. This time, we skewer circuses, wedding crasher, dining on planes and (everyone's favorite!) suprise fecal showers. Can't make this shit up, friends
