Side Quest

Welcome to Side Quest, the podcast where the conversations are real, the tangents are legendary, and adulthood is mostly improv. We're Jenn and Kellie, two Gen X besties talking mental health, friendship, aging, pop culture, cannabis, gaming, and whatever chaotic rabbit hole we fall into next. Equal parts heartfelt and unhinged, we're here to remind you that life is better when you laugh, stay weird, and never have to side quest alone.

  No Thoughts, Just Side Quests

  Sep 30, 202644 minS1

  We came in with microphones, a listener poop story, and absolutely no intention of being productive. This week, we’re ditching the deep conversations and just hanging out—talking shit, chasing random tangents, laughing at things that probably aren’t that funny, and seeing where the conversation takes us. There’s no lesson. No personal growth. No carefully researched topic. Just two friends catching up, oversharing, getting distracted, and giving you a front-row seat to the kind of conversation that happens when nobody remembers what the original point was. Oh, and yes. There’s a poop story. Grab a snack, lower your expectations, and come hang out with us. No thoughts. Just side quests. Girl, bye.

  Are We Catching Up, or Talking Shit

  Sep 27, 202647 minS1

  Jenn is finally back from vacation, which means the Side Quest Mamas have some serious catching up to do. We’re talking road-trip chaos, family, old memories, new memories, good food, questionable decisions, and everything that happened while we were apart. There’s no agenda. No lesson. No deep dive. Just two friends sitting down after way too much time apart and doing what we do best—starting with one story, ending up six side quests away, and probably talking a little shit somewhere in between. Girl, bye.

  I Got Punched, But Your Vitals are Due

  Sep 18, 202640 minS1

  Healthcare might be the only job where someone can assault you…and five minutes later, you’re expected to walk back into their room and ask them to rate their pain. In this episode of Side Quest Mamas , we’re talking about the uncomfortable reality of violence against healthcare workers—and the culture that has somehow normalized abuse as “part of the job.” We get into the complicated stuff, too. Patients can be scared, confused, intoxicated, mentally ill, cognitively impaired, in tremendous pain, or genuinely unable to control their behavior. They still deserve appropriate medical care. But understanding why someone behaves violently doesn’t mean the people caring for them should have to absorb the violence. Where is the line between compassion and self-protection? Why should an employee who has just been assaulted be expected to continue directly caring for the person who assaulted them? And why have healthcare workers become so accustomed to threats, harassment, spitting, grabbing, hitting, and abuse that sometimes we barely even acknowledge it anymore? We’re not asking anyone to stop caring about patients. We’re asking healthcare systems—and society—to remember that the people taking care of those patients are human, too. You can provide compassionate care and still have boundaries. Because getting punched should never be part of the job description.

  Boundaries, Bullshit, & Being a Decent Human

  Sep 8, 202644 minS1

  How do you know when someone genuinely needs help—and when they’re taking advantage of your kindness? In this episode, we get into the messy gray area between having faith in people, protecting yourself, setting boundaries, and still being a decent human being. Because sometimes people really do need help. Sometimes people manipulate kindness. And sometimes… we have absolutely no way of knowing which one we’re dealing with. So where do we draw the line? Can we protect ourselves without becoming cynical? And does getting taken advantage of once mean we should stop being kind altogether? Grab your emotional-support beverage and come figure it out with us. ❤️‍

  Adult Money, Teenage Dreams

  Sep 1, 202643 minS1

  We spent our adult money living out our teenage dreams, and HOLY SHIT, was it worth it. From the music and nostalgia to the outfits, chaos, and that surreal moment when you realize little teenage you is finally getting the night she always dreamed about. Because getting older doesn’t mean growing up completely. Sometimes you just need to scream the songs, dance like nobody’s watching, and let your inner teenager have her moment. ❤️
