We're Sarah Walton and Michele Wang, two 50-something women who've been friends for over 25 years—and all we really want to do is talk some sh*t and laugh our asses off. Not everything has to be "a breakthrough" or "next-level" or "the 5-step path to becoming your best self." We promise you: no important lessons will be taught and no deep dives will be taken. We're officially overwhelmed and drown... more

  • Disappointing

    I already follow Michele on YouTube and I like her content and her soft voice, find it really relaxing to watch and to listen to so I was interested in listening to the podcast. Unfortunately I find her co-host Sarah to be loud, in your face kind of personality annoying and a bad listener (constantly interrupting Michele). So I'm gonna have to stick with Michele's YouTube channel and forget trying to listen to the podcast. Not pleasurable. Too bad!

  • This is the definition of vapid.

    Notvsure why these two decided to add their voices to the very crowded podcast world. They have nothing to say worth listening to. If yiu overheard them at a nearby table at a cafe, you’d want to move out of shear annoyance.

  • What fun!

    Such an enjoyable and relaxing conversation … like hanging out with witty and sometimes wise, sometimes silly friends. Just discovered this and moving to top of my listening … and smiling.
