New Yorker of the Week: The Final Episode (For Now) 26.02.2026 48:17
It’s our last New Yorker of the Week episode. For now. We know. We’re emotional too. After many long voice memos, Google Docs, budget spreadsheets in a notes app, and one dramatic “are we insane?” conversation, we’ve decided to put the podcast on pause. Making this show has been one of the most joyful, creatively unhinged, time-consuming, and financially questionable things we’ve ever done. And...
New Yorker of the Week: Just Us and Everyone Except Jill Zarin 19.02.2026 44:46
We cover Nora’s recent Bahamas trip where there was somehow no food, debate whether we’re cruise or land people, and assign ourselves roles in the event of a plane crash. Productive. We spiral about what we’d do if we had no jobs, gush about our love for Alone and The Traitors, and yes, celebrate Jill Zarin getting cut from the RHONY reboot. Some news simply heals a city. New episodes every Thursd...

New Yorker of the Week: Just Us - Are You Breakfast, Lunch, or Dinner? 29.01.2026 51:07
Just us this week! Hanna is deep in post-vacation blues, Nora is recording under the soft glow of Ambien because it was a late night, and yes, once again, we somehow end up talking about doctors. At this point we’re not not a medical podcast. The main event: we phone in two very important people Ross and Becca, to finally answer the question plaguing us all: are you breakfast, lunch, or dinner? We...

New Yorker of the Week: Just Us and an Apology to NYC Doctors 15.01.2026 57:05

From there, things unfold as they should: Hanna considers joining a choir, Nora reflects emotionally on...

New Yorker of the Week: Just Us and a Broken Camera 11.12.2025 53:08
