This week, we dive into the heavy and the messy: new revelations from the Epstein files, our ongoing ick about Kanye and his treatment of Bianca Censori, Ramona Singer’s latest tone-deaf moment, and Jennifer Aniston’s new man (we have thoughts).

On the book front, Emily started Two Guys, a Girl, and a Tripod by Sara Sitwell, keep your eyes peeled for a special episode with the author. Meanwhile, Tori finished Lessons in Chemistry... and emotionally wrecked Emily in the process.

Content Warning: Mentions of sexual assault and suicide around 25:40 of the Lessons in Chemistry segment.

This week is unhinged in every direction. We cover the Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom split, Jeff Bezos’ “wedding of the century,” and a truly weird week for justice with updates from the Diddy trial and Brian Kohberger case. There’s also a deeply unsettling story about a 5-year-old falling from a cruise ship (wtf???), and, yes, another Meghan Markle moment, because we just can’t look away.

But it’s not all doom and chaos: The Devil Wears Prada 2 is officially in the works and we are thrilled.

Emily brings three book updates to the table, including The Invitation by Jodi Ellen Malpas and The Bodyguard by Katherine Center, while Tori inches closer to finishing Lessons in Chemistry.

⚠️ Content Warning: Discussion of assault from 31:28–31:50 during the Lessons in Chemistry segment.

Oh — and we welcome a very special new cast member: Tori’s sweet baby kitten, Ted!

This week, we’re unwell. It starts with our feelings about orcas (we’re divided), Allie the bottlenose dolphin (new momma), and Ed the zebra (truly an icon). We also descend into the strange world of Labubu’s and Tori might have gone too deep.

On the book front: Tori continues her Lessons in Chemistry journey, and Emily has finished House of Flame and Shadow — and oh, there are feelings. So many feelings we had to cut half the episode so we didn’t keep you here for hours.

Still just two unhinged besties yapping!
