This is your daily reminder to stop being fatphobic. The girlies have a candid discussion on body image, growing up plus sized, & the horrors of finding a bathing suit. They also touch upon medical fatphobia, familial pressure to stay slim, & the ways in which being healthy isn’t always attainable. While you might not see fatphobia affect your life, let this episode is a reminder that it’s everywhere, from dating apps to the Target dressing room.

The girlies are back to discuss The Life of a Showgirl and the infighting that’s killing us all. In podcast-ception, Em & Nala reflect on Taylor Swift’s appearance on New Heights, remembering mostly bread puns and Travis learning new words. They delve into the moral superiority within leftist communities, coming to the conclusion that no one can win ever. Nala turns 22 and Emily does the unspeakable: hands her mic over to a man.

We have returned from hibernation to bring you our 2025 predictions & rambles on Spotify wrapped, mustache-core, & Nala’s next big venture: bringing back Mac & cheese. And yes, we still think reputation (Taylor’s version) is coming soon.

A tale of four Harrys, an accidental super like, hot voice syndrome, and my greatest fear: women. In this episode, Em & Nala discuss all things dating from the perfect first date to the time we tagteamed an evil gaslighter. In true Girl Talk fashion, the conversation dips into existentialist territory with discussions of being a late bloomer, dating as a plus size person, and the dread of being unpalatable to the male gaze.

A veteran Simmer and a clueless Sims wannabe walk into a University of Connecticut classroom to talk all things mods, expansion packs, and 100 babies.
