The Beef Special

This episode is a masterclass in what it's like to both be chronically online and somehow also, as the kids say it, Unc. But that's the duality of Hannah and Halle. There's also some life updates sprinkled in, which is why episodes keep taking longer and longer to come out, so I personally apologize on their behalf. Hope you enjoy.

Hannah and Halle are back from an unintentional hiatus with an episode they actually recorded about five months ago. In that time, they moved out of their shared townhome and now live in separate apartments in the city. It was for their own good. Maybe this episode will shed some light on how that happened, who knows. Hope you enjoy <3

As mentioned last episode, Hannah and Halle went to a Valentine's singles party with their good friend and lifelong social experiment, Bruce. Janelle graciously attended as well, and the four had a night worth talking about on a mediocre podcast. Hope you enjoy <3

Here's the long awaited update on Halle's dapper date. Spoiler, it ended, but it was nice while it lasted, so she says. Hannah unfortunately can't say the same about the human nightmare she met on hinge. After getting into the salacious details, the two discuss their ins and outs for 2025. Feel free to add your own in the comments below! Hope you enjoy <3

Happy New Year, folks! Can we still say that? Anyway, this episode proves that Hannah and Halle's opinions age like milk given the results of the election (see two episodes ago). So, please remember to take everything they say with a grain of salt. They can't be trusted. In other, lighter, news the two end up discussing the intricacies of making Spotify playlists, and then Halle can't shut up abou...

This episode we find out there is in fact a circumstance in which Hannah becomes a football fan. Halle goes on some rant about live music, and the two finally cover some beef that was submitted by one of you lovely listeners. Hope you enjoy. Seeing as our last episode was about the upcoming election, we will definitely have one coming out discussing the aftermath. This ep was recorded a bit ago, s...

This episode starts off very low energy since Halle had a wee bit too much to drink the night before, but things sure do pick up once they start talking about the upcoming election and team USA popping off at the Olympics. This might be one of the only times in their life where they talk about the US in a positive way. Truly a moment to savor.

You know when you're really bad at texting back, and then most of your replies to your friend end up becoming "oh my gosh I'm so sorry. I totally typed out a reply and forgot to send." That's what this episode was. We recorded it a while ago, but then someone (Halle) really dragged her feet on editing because she was getting annoyed by audio issues again. Yes, it's a tale...

Yeah, they're talking about smut books again. But what Halle insists is in a really cool and tasteful way (it is not). In other new, Hannah continues to flaunt her social media break, and Halle details yet another man calling her a narcissist. Can we blame him? She writes these descriptions in third person.

Listen. This was recorded a while ago, but Halle could not figure out Reaper to save her life. She lost the end of the recording and tried to redo it as if it was never gone but she's not an actor so she had to fess up. But whatever! It's here! The very first episode recorded in person now that Hannah and Halle live together. They give a little synopsis on what they've been up to and t...

Say it ain't so. An episode? While Halle is galivanting around Spain? I know I know. She's so generous to edit this. The reality is she is ill and bored and missed the poddy. And this episode was supposed to come out before she left on her big adventure, but as always, life gets in the way. Regardless, it's here! And it delves into Halle's TikTok comment section, Keke Palmer's...

Blame Tears of the Kingdom for this episode being late. Halle's on a bender and there's no end in sight. Anyway, this episode features a lot of celeb drama, specifically around Kiley and Timmy and Sydney Sweeney and whatever the other guy's name is. We get into it all or as much as we can given how much time we spent going over our celebrity crush rating system. Hope you enjoy <3 Ad...

Content warning: anime cringe. We're kidding. It doesn't get that bad, but Hannah and Halle do admit to having read anime fan fiction, so does it really get worse than that? Not sure. This episode also features beef from a lovely listener and is about one of Hannah and Halle's favorite topics to give unsolicited advice on: dating. Sure there are some other things discussed in between,...

In this week's episode, Hannah relays her TSA PreCheck troubles, Halle (fresh off of Hinge) hashes out her online dating pet peeves, and the two briefly discuss irony poisoning before severely veering off the subject. This episode was recorded after Halle's post-therapy session come down so there was a lot on her mind, as always. Some rants made it, some didn't. Just the name of the game. As alway...

The time has come. The Beef Special has its very first guest, our long-time bestie, Nico. I'd give a longer introduction but this episode is long enough. Hope you enjoy.

I know, I know. I can see you're overcome with excitement seeing that we have finally released an episode. Wipe those tears of joy and strap in for Season 2 of The Beef Special. It's going to be insane and by that, I mean relatively similar to the last season. Except now we'll have some guests! But in this first episode, we're kicking things off with the usual suspects. Hannah and Halle recount Ha...

This was meant to be an anti-beef special episode that we recorded a couple of weeks ago, but the topics were so random it didn't even feel like part of the podcast. I was honestly not going to publish this, but after seeing the Spotify Wrapped I found the much-needed motivation to get it out there. I know we're not going back to regular episodes until the new year, but hopefully this will tie you...

Our worst fears came true. Halle continues her manifestation by being the biggest baby recovering from the flu, as she has to make sure you know how sicky she is. Hannah...oh Hannah and her introspective beef. In true INFJ fashion, she makes it abundantly clear that she is the most tortured soul in existence. How does she ever get anything done? The two then discuss the 'misery loves company' side...

Disclaimer: Halle had the flu while recording this episode, which means she was in her weakest form. And her weakest form oddly resembles that of a man: talks too much, brags about how much money they make, and laughs in just a god-awful manner. It's horrifying and sometimes funny. She made a plea to rerecord this episode which she herself denied. Odd and yet fitting for the male persona. If she d...

In this episode, we polled listeners and friends to get their thoughts on the rights and wrongs of snooping through a partner's phone. Hannah and Halle shared some of their own experiences on the subject that will probably make you think less of them. Honorable mention goes to Halle for laughing so hard that she cried during this episode. For what reason, you ask? Herself. A bit narcissistic, I kn...

Do people read these? The way the entire contents of the episode escape my mind after we record them actually scares me. What did I say? I don't fucking know. Anyway, this episode was recorded remotely. I paid $19 for a remote recording subscription, so I no longer have to have these conversations with Hannah in person. Worth every penny.

This is late because I didn't want to publish it. But I had a little chuckle while editing so maybe you will too. Don't get your hopes up. You know the fucking drill: send beef to beefspecialpod@gmail.com or via DM on Insta @thebeefspecial. Love ya

This week's episode is short and sweet, mainly because we had to record it twice due to some chaotic rants. The audio is still a mess, but don't ask Halle about it because she will scream. Hope you enjoy <3

I'm going to be honest. Every time I (Halle) come to publish this nonsense, I don't even remember what it's about. I have the memory of a goldfish and the heart rate of a hamster running on all four cylinders. All you need to know is that we finally got an ad, which is probably out of place in the ep but we're figuring it out, and you can submit beef to us at beefspecialpod@gmail.com. We love you...

It wouldn't be a Beef Special episode if Tiktok wasn't referenced a million times, and this episode is no different. From watered-down drinks to reality TV, Hannah and Halle get into their petty beef with a concerning level of detail. As always, you can submit beef to us via a voice memo or email at beefspecialpod@gmail.com.
