Do You Know What I Mean? (When I Say That)

First things first, we want to give the warmest welcome to our cohost of this episode: Pink Mini Hat. Our sassy, MOUTHY bestie! Ok, so the US might've lost the World Cup, but our fleeting patriotism lives on in watching visitors from other countries experience Americana for the first time: we're talking Buc-ee's, Big Gulps, portions that require a to-go box on arrival." It&apos...

TONIGHT ON...the pod. It's time we speak on our Love Island thoughts (US AND UK) and things get...heated. We then quickly (after 10 whole minutes) pivot to our Las Culturistas Culture Awards recap, Kellie's backstage affair with Will Ferrell (have some freaking class, Kellie), and discuss which current Hollywood relationships are PR or not PR. (Like: Benson Boone and Alix Earle, we have...

Say it with us: optimization culture is ruining fun! In a very juicy episode 7, we bounce from chaotic personal updates to bigger “how do we actually enjoy life?” questions. We kick things off with the 75 chud challenge then spiral into how optimization culture can suck the fun out of everything - bring back wicked hangovers in 2026! Well, maybe not, but you get our point! From there, it’s recap s...

This Pop Culture episode is a rapid-fire grab bag of reviews, hot takes, and a little chaos PLUS with a special guest appearance from Jon’s mom. We start with quick movie check-ins (from your local AMC A-Listers including Sheep Detective , Obsession , and Backrooms ), then straight into Gen Z director discourse and Kellie's stunning recap of her attendance at the Las Culturistas Culture Award...

First of all, a belated congrats to the happy couple: Martin Short and Meryl Streep. May your dramatics and theatrics complement one another for the rest of time! We're back with another pop culture mini episode...and we're feeling free to roam about the cabin 🫡 We gossip about busting THE Mythbusters themselves, the fear of catching fire at the gas station, and call on anyone and every...

*inhale, exhale*  Welcome to a wonderfully frazzled Episode 6, dear Dykwimpers! In this episode, Jon gets a little Nicholas Sparks with it and brings beautiful sap, sentiment and a whole thesis to the table (classic “The Man Who Has It All”). We chat about the phenomenon of the last time being the last time, and the temporary versions of ourselves - whom we all need to be nicer to and give grace t...

WHEW, welcome to Ep 5! This episode has everything: apocalypse prep, hantavirus paranoia, wedding narcissism, chic shots, pinot grigio propaganda, influencer discourse, and kissing your bffs ( sometimes ). We're pouring over the architecture of what makes for a perfect bar while also trying to determine what DJs actually do besides point at things dramatically?? DJ dykwimpers, we need to hear...

Welcome to our first official pop culture mini episode! We’re trying something new!! This week we discuss Rihanna album rumors, the Met Gala, and why men need to be banned from wearing plain black tuxes to fashion events immediately. We also report live from District 12, unpack Billie Eilish needing to maybe read the room ( still love her to death! ), revisit The Devil Wears Prada as the cultural...

It's cringey, its second hand embarrassment, it's...the inability to read the room; the age old skill that nobody truly teaches you but everyone should judge you on. From inappropriate workplace wear (looking at you backwards hats), to trapping group in stories that should’ve ended well over 30 minutes ago, we’re diving into the subtle art of social awareness. And if you think you'r...

This week on Episode 3 of DYKWIM, we are officially declaring a national holiday: the day of our long-awaited graduation from being permanently assigned to the paper plate zone at family gatherings… and into the wild world of being treated like a full-grown adults. We're debating when (if ever) this actually happens, and whether it always comes with Caribbean-style perks or just worse hangove...

It’s feeling rather & extra wonderful to be back. So go ahead, inhale, close your eyes (unless you’re driving), and exhale. Episode 2 is here, and we’re taking you on a JOURNEY: one of personal growth, hot takes, and a healthy dose of completely unfactual evidence. This week, we’re accelerating into the art (and chaos) of picking a side because neutrality is overrated and some of us simply ref...

Season 3. New era. Same ability to have an 19 minute conversation before introducing ourselves.  After a brief hiatus (read as: dual entanglement with seasonal depression), DYKWIM is so back, and somehow we're returning both wiser and exactly the same. This week, we're diving into usage of the phrase 'it's not their first time on Earth' - and how to use it as a dig (if app...

What happens in Vegas... gets recapped in full detail on the pod, of course. This week, we're returning from our chaotic desert adventure so that we can share all of our Sin City adventures - the jaw-dropping shows to nightclubs we definitely had no business being in. We're talking full-blown sensory overload + rapid fire convos about championing your friends, preparing for conversations...

First of all, we're going to HAVE to do something about that mouth... It's Episode 16, baby so let's freaking act like it!! This week, we're talking about the cathartic feeling of a (successful) little lie...because sometimes just saying "no" to get out of plans isn't going to cut it. We also dive head first into the glitz and glam that is a novel grocery store,...

Is there anything more romantic in modern life than pulling up to Departures, popping the trunk, and saying a rushed-but-emotional goodbye while a line of cars honks behind you? We MIGHT be getting a little teary-eyed this week (as we usually do), but this time, we're doing it curbside! Join us for a monumental and extremely freaky Episode 15! It’s one about liminal spaces, leaning into your...

Welcome back, d*ck wimpers! This week, class is in session as we're building our personal curriculums — aka the niche, self-made syllabi that fuel our brains and answer any/all of life's burning questions. Because didn’t you hear: learning is SO in (from Film 101 to Soup Studies). We also get into the complete and utter euphoria that is becoming unreasonably obsessed with something (up t...

Welcome to lucky Episode 13! This week, we’re talking about booking the trip, comfort shows, and regulating emotions. We get into why life’s too short to let the trip stay trapped in the group chat, how Selling Sunset and Sex In the City somehow both qualify as comfort TV in totally different ways, and why it actually feels kind of chic to pause, analyze your emotions, and then decide how you want...

OH this episode? Yeah, it has it all: post-festival emotional damage (the good-ish kind), a cheers to an almost-married couple, and confessions of a 3am FaceTime. In our new rapid-fire era, we discuss the bravery of wearing That Outfit™ (you know the f**king one), campaign for teenyboppers to get their Emmy moment (justice for The Summer I Turned Pretty ), and positively spiral over Ben Platt&apos...

Welcome to a new era of the pod! We’re switching things up and going rapid-fire: one host brings three bite-sized topics to the table, and the other reacts in real time. And trust us when we say... no rock goes unturned in today's ep (and I really do mean that).  We're talking about the intersection between late-stage bedwetting and over-orchestrated sleepover avoidance. We're talki...

It’s episode 10 of Do You Know What I Mean? (What I Say That) and we’re shaking things right the hell up, just for you 😘 We each rip through 3 rapid fire “do you know what I means” and let's just say...we’re not holding back. Think hot takes like: dogs can be hot, yoga can SUCK, and people really don’t need to be embarrassed (most of the time). And of course, we show off our glitzy new pop c...

Intuitive living... don't overcomplicate it! This week, we're slowing it down & stripping it WAY back (in a good way, we promise) to talk about the beauty in simplicity and why the 'more is more' mindset we were raised on might actually just be a bunch of... messy b******t? We're getting into what it means to actually enjoy life - not just on the weekends or during big...

2012 called and it wants its Instagram back ☎️ This week, we're diving head first into the lawless land of 2012 Instagram: duck faces, random food photos no one asked for, lyrics-as-captions, and sepia-toned selfies. Join us as we reminisce on the days when flower crowns ruled the world and hashtags reigned supreme; we were cringe but we were free. We discuss some of our favorite posts, the r...

Join the group. Go on the date. Eat Alone. Live a little...  This week, we're exploring the art of doing things that scare you, but like... not too much. From solo movie outings and awkward coffee shop compliments to international work trips and collegiate a cappella, we're completely unpacking the joy that lives just on the edge of discomfort. Maybe (just maybe), we stumble upon the rev...

Role call, group trip edition 🫡  You got the trip out of the group chat, now what?? Set your OOO, pack your metaphorical weekend bag(s), and assume your unspoken positions, because this week we're digging into the role that each friend plays on the group trip this summer (whether they know it or not). From the in-house Treasurer, the Tour Guide Sacrificial or the human Alarm Clock, there is...

Poor public etiquette: it pisses us off!! This week, the pod is taking a turn and we're talking about something everyone needs but far too few people have: basic public decency. From loud phone talkers and aggressive seat recliners, we're finally calling out repeat offenders who act like they're the only human beings on Earth. We're covering the full spectrum of social chaos, f...
