Gaudy Positive

What's that smell? Oh, it's all the pollution from the #2 polluter on the planet -- the fashion industry! Peeeeyuuu. Jenny and Kat dig into talk about ethical fashion, with a good dose of post-Evangelical guilt and a lovely endorsement for New York's dedication to Italian greatness, Rome, NY. What's in: ADIDAS, Alice Alexander, Poppy Row, Urtumuch, Premme, Girlfriend Collective, YALA Designs. What...

Merry Gaudydays! This episode tackles important questions: What to do this holiday season with family, what is the most Gaudy Christmas tree (that Joe Rogan would own), and is Christmas the tackiest holiday of the year?? These questions and more will be answered on this super sparkly, mistley toey episode of Gaudy Positive. Our Gaudy Positive person of the week: Nichole Byer! 

So we recorded an episode! But you won't hear that one until next week because Jenny left it in her car before she flew to Indianapolis. So Gaudygoobers, we are SKYPING! Technology is amazing. This episode we discuss Hustlin' vs. Self care vs. Privilege vs. Christmas hotels. Episode is cut short because Producer Lupe's butt leaked onto a chair. She apologizes to the Sheraton in Indianapolis.  Sorr...

Gaudzillas! We've done it again. Jenny and Kat are bringing you straight up Gaudy Positive with our first guest Mary Lambert. She's a musician, writer, activist, and all around Gaudy Goddess. Politics, fame, and The National Parks Service only scratch the surface of this rad episode. Check out her new book, Shame Is An Ocean I Swim Across, and don't forget to rate and share the pod! 

Hello Gaudzillas! This episode is chalk full of juicy gaudy bits. Jen and Kat discuss their newest obsessions like the Netflix show Samantha, Tokyo Love Hotels, and Sexy Pun Restaurant names, and Jenny finally confronts the joke thief, 

HAPPPY HALLOWEEN GAUDY GHOULS! The gals talk historical costumes, Murphy Brown's wokeness, and a whole host of other topics. 

On today's episode we talk of CELEB INCOUNTERS (Jenny met her spirit guide Jonathan Van Ness) and Kat's expereince at the plus size friendly event of the century, LA FASHION WEEK. This episode is full of interruptions by our producer Lupe, a cat fight, trying to be enough, and the truth of "Making it" in Hollywood. Enjoy!

Jenny and Kat talk about about the never ending suffering that is self employment, working towards your dream in the entertainment business, and loving your body. Lots of boob talk on this episode - Jenny has hairy titties - FYI - and Kat has bell bewbs. They talk about the trouble with bras, fancy lingerie, and why Jenny can't stop thinking about garbage men.    Enjoy!

Hey Gaudy Gobs! This week's episode focuses on how fashion relates to self esteem. We all have that one garment that makes us feel great no matter what. And I'm sure we've all been terrified to try on a new style - how does fashion really effect our self esteem? Does it help or hurt? We also talk about the 90s fashion return, super themed motels, and how we need to accept our changing bodies. Hope...
