The Bad Broadcast

School is back in session for most of the world so I thought this would be a perfect time for some teacher appreciation. Today we are talking to all our Bad Broad Teachers and the worst things that have happened to them while teaching. Hopefully this inspires us all to treat teachers a little better (and, you know, pay them more) Hug the teachers in your life! They deal with a lot of shit (li...

 Since being pregnant is my whole personality now, I thought I’d have Lucy on to chat about all the weird and wild things that have happened to all of us during pregnancy. Remember, don’t let any of these scare you! Your pregnancy will bring with it its own weirdness that will be special and unsettling to you alone. Enjoy!  Please note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and...

Once upon a time, I went to Dear Media IRL. That’s where I met Macy Thompson and fell in love with her. Macy is currently the social media manager for Spritz Society but is also a hilarious social media presence herself. Follow her on IG @macy_thompson and on TikTok @macy_thompsonn and make sure to bully her into starting her own podcast!  Please note that this episode may contain paid endors...

Also - don't forget to shop my new merch line, available n...

Traveling. A life luxury or a cesspool of human annoyances? Probably a little bit of both. This episode is all about the worst travel experiences you've had. Spoiler: if you haven't had a garbage bag of barf explode on you, you're probably fine. I also add in a few of my favorite tips and tricks for making travel easier and less annoying (barely). Enjoy!

IT'S ANOTHER BAD MONDAY. Another Madi rant. Another hour full of me complaining about things that probably don't matter, primarily Disney Adults (NO NOT ME & YOU) and overdone internet jokes (NO NOT THE ONES THAT I STILL LAUGH AT.) Enjoy!

This episode has a little bit of everything. I keep a list in my phone of things that make me violently angry and today I unleash my list from this week.

Okay. You caught me. This episode isn't us reading smut to you. But it IS all about the world of sexy books and how it can help women explore themselves - emotionally and sexually. Meg, our resident smut expert and also my best friend, joins me today as we talk about our own explorations of sexuality and how we give ourselves permission to piece together the types of women we want to be. I always...

The Dumb Dumb Club. We know it, we live it, we love it. However...this week is a little different. Today's episode is all about our Dumb Dumb Club moments: Sex Edition. I daresay the majority of us were raised to not only avoid sex, but to fear it a little bit. Because of this, soooo many of us had confusions about what sex what and how to talk about it. Hopefully today we break that wide open and...

Sometimes you guys message me and say, "Madi, i would listen to you read your grocery list and still be entertained." WELL GUESS WHAT BITCHES? CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR! Jk. Kinda.

We chat about faith transitions, Scrabble nights, and how we navigate a successful mother-daughter relationship. My mom is such a mindful and introspective person and it wouldn't be right to keep her all to myself, so sharing her wisdom with you all is my favorite thing to do.

I can always tell how traumatized you guys are by a topic based on how many submissions I get and how long each submission is. AND LET ME TELL YOU. This week's submissions were trauma dumping at its finest. Turns out our first kisses were not all as magical as Mary-Kate and Ashley led us to believe they would be. Nevertheless, they made us who we are today. Enjoy the cringe sweats!    Please note...

And then for the foreseeable future you have to PRETEND to love cars and anime and Quentin Tarantino movies? Yeah. We've all been there. Here's a compilation of all the Things We Faked Along the Way.  Please note that t...
