Time Machine: 2014!

Take a trip back in time with the girlies to the year of galaxy leggings, shaking it off, volunteering for tribute, & asking if okay will be our always. While they were in middle school at the time, Em & Nala remember 2014 extremely fondly. Plus they discuss their theatre kid tendencies and the song that makes them want to rip their ears off and burn them!

Stupid With Autotune (A Mean Girls Review)

Get in losers, the theatre kids are complaining again! From Renee Rapp’s incredible, show-stopping, never the same performance to the songs that make our ears bleed, the girlies talk all things Mean Girls 2024 in this episode. But first, they discuss two other iconic, yet oddly disturbing pieces of media set in the early 2000’s: Saltburn and Tommy Wiseau’s The Room.

Hughmpa Loompa Doopaty Grant and Other 2024 Thoughts

As we enter the year of Wicked Part 1, the girlies discuss what they believe the next year will hold. From fashion trends to Ethan Slater looking eerily similar to Frankie Grande, this chaotic chat is full of giggles and ponderings. Nala rants about the multiverse, Emily hates on Wonka, and the two decide whether or not ‘slay’ will be 2024’s biggest casualty.

Was She Bad Like the Barbie?

Spotify Wrapped Day: It’s bigger than the Super Bowl and more anticipated than a rare comet. Like any music-loving, Spotify-dependent girlies, we MUST share our exceptional music tastes with you all. If you’re beyond sick of all the Wrapped graphics on your IG feed, do not fret. Tune in to also hear about Nala’s concert experience in the wasteland/wonderland of New Jersey and the unsettling feeling that hasn’t left Emily since she watched 'May December.'

The Black Mirror Episode

The girlies sit down to talk about the iconic and disturbing tv show that is Black Mirror. From monkeys that need a hug to evil Matt Damon lookalikes, this show is somehow the best and worst thing they have ever seen. In typical Girl Talk fashion, Em and Nala attempt to share their top three episodes but kinda sorta end up talking about all of them. Other discussions include Grammy predictions and how show-stopping Heidi Klum’s husband looked dressed up as an egg.

All You Had To Do Was Slay

1989 (Taylor’s Version) changed lives. From vault track dissections to songs we think are better than the originals, the girlies have much to discuss. We also share our Eras Tour movie experience, admit our stupid financial decisions (that may or may not be cardigan shaped), and pledge our allegiance to Jack Antonoff (and really all celebrities that hail from the debatably great state of New Jersey).

When Did it End, Although Enjoyment

From being a 20-year-old teenager to entering your depression Barbie era to the emergence of #adulting, the consensus is that existing as a young woman is hard. The Girl Talk girlies discuss this phenomenon and how outside factors, such as the pandemic, have affected their ability to “grow up.” And of course, a small Taylor Swift discussion takes place as well…it is our 13th episode after all.

Fictional Boyfriend Showdown

Technically no one asked us to rehash drama about our favorite fictional characters…but we did it anyway. In this episode, Nala and Emily put on their boxing gloves and attempted to defend the fictional boyfriends that live on our screens (and in our heads). While focusing primarily on The Summer I Turned Pretty and Gilmore Girls love triangles, we somehow stumbled upon a plethora of other discussions such as a dissection of our favorite girlbosses: Emily Gilmore and Kirk Gleason. 

Troy and Gabriella Wish They Were Us

Whether they’re bopping to the top or fantasizing about being rich enough to buy a home in Disney’s Golden Oak, this week’s episode proves Em & Nala are never beating the Disney adult allegations. Other discussions include our 1989 vault track predictions and Nala’s incredible One Direction concert storytime that Emily will remain jealous of for the rest of time.

Welcome to Girl Talk 2.0

School's back in session which can only mean one thing: Emily feels immense pressure to get her life (& her creative projects) back on track. After a slayful summer break, Girl Talk is back with a brand new co-host and a chaotic set of get-to-know-you questions. From book tropes to beets, this episode is a laugh-filled re-introduction to this silly little podcast.
As usual, Em & Nala are begging anyone and everyone who reads this to follow our hilarious and spectacular Instagram: @girltalk.pod
