Filterless Females

We celebrated our first Friendsgiving and this is definitely going to happen again! Listen to us dish out all our favorite things about Thanksgiving, what we’re grateful for and that Alexa did now! Beware! Halloween might be over but this was one mean trick.

Next up in our theater review, we’re talking about The Band’s Visit. And since only one of us got to see it, we might as well chat about the isolated island Fick has been on. We’re ready to get back to normal and not the new one.

There’s no “fun” in funeral. Good grief. Here’s your filterless rundown of do and do nots when attending a wake or funeral or being a decent person. We know people want to be supportive and don’t often know what to say, and it’s ok to tell someone you just don’t know. And please, please, please don’t be judge-y. And please don’t make us tell you all this again!

Next up in our theater review, we’re talking Tootsie. Did you see it? Love it or hate it? We have two very unique options. Plus, you’ll never believe what we’re complaining about now!

How do you take care of your mental health? Whether it’s spending time outdoors, unplugging for a day, date night or a long talk with a friend, we all know the importance of knowing the signs of needing help and when to ask for it. In honor of World Mental Health Day, we highlight what has (or has not) worked for us and ideas that anyone can use. After all, this is what our community was built on....

Al Gorithm may be responsible for creating the internet, but who’s responsible for breaking it? There was widespread panic as every single thing stopped working today. But at least Twitter had the best day ever (and maybe that stupid pumpkin).

In honor of Broadway reopening and theater performances coming back to Buffalo, we’re sharing our thoughts on Frozen. Spoiler alert: it was WAY better than the movie. And what’s up with those f-in spider webs?

Planning the perfect party is exhausting, but 100% worth the effort. Fick and Foust share valuable insight on how important it is to RVSP! Plus, why balloons suck.

The only thing missing today was someone actually saying “sounds like you have a case of the Mondays”. We’re so done with this week but there were some highlights. And we know even if you won’t say it, you can relate.

Whether you’re summer went way too fast with no time to enjoy any of it, or you had a blast all day everyday we’re all sad to see it go.

The episode you’ve all been waiting for… driver’s ed with Fick and Foust! We may be a little crazy but it is true that drivers are worse lately and we have proof from the internet. Fick takes a permit test and passes but we don’t know her score cuz we don’t do math.

We love our F this and F that segment so much we needed a whole episode. You’ll love how relatable so many of these are - seriously who hasn’t been stranded in the middle of nowhere without their key fob before?! And special shoutout to all the f-ing technical glitches along the way.

Back for the first time in what feels like forever. It’s been a crazy few weeks, but we’re managing the best we can and rolling with the punches. Plus, things you probably didn’t know about Aldi or ice cream.

This week we break down the differences between millennials and Gen Z. Turns out even though we’re different we have quite a few similarities - but we’re clearly not as tech savvy. You’ll see why!

Dads - obvs! This week is dedicated to the guys who raised us and taught us valuable life skills like using a crow bar and spotting a good sale. To all the rad dads out there, we wish you a very Happy Father’s Day! And thank you to our dads for helping to shape us into the fun filterless females we are today.

What’s more awkward than starting a podcast while eating ice cream. Or going maskless if no one else is. How do we talk to people? Is it safe? Possibly stranger danger? Everyone is socially awkward these days. #newnormal

Things are going from 0 to a million real fast as the weather is starting to warm up. Fick and Foust are definitely looking forward to summer 2021 style. What are we most excited for? Come along the hot mess express to find out!

The word of the day is random but the theme is so relatable! Wait, is there a theme? Well, how was your day? Can I talk about my day? This is what happens when we return to the real world and we love it. *Actual information was included in this episode*

Global pandemic, reentry anxiety, work-life balance... the things stressing us out as a society continues to grow - as does the number of people who have a perceived mental health concern. In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month we’re opening the discussion again with tools and lots of free resources available to anyone who is looking for help.

This week’s episode is dedicated to our moms (and mother in laws and grandmas and anyone with motherly advice). Happy Mother’s Day everyone!

What do you get when the Hot Mess Express stops at a random topic generator? Questions that lead us down the rabbit hole. Like what just happened? Listen and find out (it’s actually worth it - promise!).

Pop the champagne and toast to our anniversary! We’re celebrating our one first year of the podcast with memories, random thoughts, messages from listeners and, of course, a game! Thanks for an amazing first year. Cheers to year two!

The vaccine episode. Fick and Foust are now both vaccinated and are sharing very different experiences to both side effects and individual reasons for getting shot in the arm.

Just like magnets Fick and Foust are opposites, but somehow work. This week they’re discussing their opposing views on things they love (& hate), and yes it’s more than Mariah Carey. Quiz coming someday!

We’re so ready to get away we’ll even travel 16+ hours in a car with kids (yup, that bad!). Whether you’re ready to mask up and go or still unsure, we feel you and understand it’s going to be different for a while. But the truth is we all need a break from the stress and chaos of every day life. Tune in for our thoughts on traveling as Rona season finally (*hopefully*) comes to and end.
